![]() This will be viral.” So we linked up, filmed an episode, and he's doing his classic "Fuck Batman," all of that. So I hit him up when he had 200 followers, I was like, “Bro, we got to link up and make a video. Originally, he was just dressing up in his Spider-Man outfit, just going to protests and dancing in his apartment. So I found Spider Cuz on a meme page called Welcome to Zoo York. Speaking of highlighting one specific character, I think one question that we all have is, what is the origin of Spider Cuz? It's the opposite, and it's the best here. It's so different than anywhere else, especially LA. It's the coolest place in the world, especially after living here, and it's just great to be here. So you're currently studying film at NYU? Did you have any connection to New York City before moving here for school, or was New York something that was completely new to you?

So it was pretty much perfect practice for Sidetalk. I was the host, producer, and editor of that. It was similar, where we would go up and talk to teachers and students asking them funny, random stuff. ![]() And like you said, I originally started doing these street interviews in high school because my high school had a little TV show. How old are you, and how'd you start doing stand-up interviews? I've heard you been doing this since you were a high school student in Los Angeles. Some of their best episodes have covered New Yorkers’ impassioned reactions to the plastic bag ban or the saying that “New York is dead.” Others have highlighted odd characters like Lil Agz (from the “oh, say less” meme), a Brooklyn-based rapper who looks like he just graduated fifth grade and claims he’s “your rapper’s favorite trapper, trapper’s favorite rapper.” Sidetalk’s minute-long episodes consist of man-on-the-street interviews that have highlighted some of the funniest, eccentric, and most controversial characters found on the streets of New York. The commercials included cameos from New York internet celebrities such as Spider Cuz-a living, Henny-guzzling incarnation of those “Deadass Spiderman” memes-and BKTidalWave, aka “The Queen of Brooklyn,” aka that Jay-Z fan from Brownsville who vowed to destroy ISIS herself in the middle of Union Square.Īnyone who’s been lurking on Instagram these last couple of months likely noticed that ASAP Rocky was hosting his own episode of a popular Instagram show that’s like New York Nico’s Instagram page colliding with Billy on the Street.
