Some interviews are so bad they're good.

This is the style adopted by YouTuber Amelia Dimoldenberg in her recurring show Chicken Shop Date, which sees her taking musicians and actors to various fast food establishments across London and having conversations filled with cringey moments and awkward silences (her interview with Jack Harlow recently had over six million views, and her year-old chat with Daniel Kaluuya is still well worth a watch).

For her latest interview she took Ed Sheeran to Sam's Chicken and asked him about Stormzy, his love of maths, and how he manages to sext when he doesn't even own a phone. There's also an impromptu ukulele segment at the end which is truly something.
