Anthony Hopkins: I think you can learn a lot from Private Eye. The people that were responsible for it, yeah, they are really part of the establishment. So you have to wonder about their motives for making the show. But I suppose they're just looking to make a successful comedy show on one level. And what's the art of happiness, then, Anthony? "I can tell you because you're obviously so happy"
[Part 2 of 2] Since recording part 1 of this conversation, Antony caught COVID-19 and lost a bit of weight, but he managed to talk for about 100 minutes here about more topics he has previously covered in episodes of his podcast "Life & Life Only". Here we discuss diverse things including the extraordinary feats of endurance by David Blaine🕴🏻, food and dieting 🍔, Stanley Kubrik's film "The Shining" 🪓, the term "conspiracy theory" 🤫, the ways that comedy shows can reveal the truth 🎭, and the complex art of happiness 🙂.
