What’s the difference between an interview and a first date? For the past decade, Amelia Dimoldenberg has been walking that fine line on her hit YouTube series, Chicken Shop Date. The premise is in the title: filmed at various chicken establishments across London, the show features a series of funny (sometimes awkward) ‘dates’ with everyone from Paul Mescal to Billie Eilish.
To celebrate the 10th anniversary of her beloved series, Amelia and Sam have a cup of tea to discuss her recent sit-down with Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds, her upbringing in London, and how Mary-Kate and Ashley inspired the young creative ambitions that lead to Chicken Shop Date. We also highlight a few pivotal episodes of the show with rapper Ghetts, actor Daniel Kaluuya, and documentarian Louis Theroux.
On the back-half, we unpack Dimoldenberg’s comedy influences—from Amy Poehler in Parks and Recreation to Zach Galifianakis’ Between Two Ferns, how she continues to expand her reach as an independent creator, why the ‘anti-interview’ genre has come into vogue, and what she hopes for in the decade to come.
