Greg Gutfeld, co-host of Fox News’ The Five and host of The Greg Gutfeld Show, is known for his humorous but thoughtful take on issues. Such was evident with his segment on “Overcoming man buns” on Sunday night’s show. The caption for the video appropriately reads about hosting a “bun-tervention.”
The segment focused on Joanne Nosuchinsky and Katherine Timpf, the show’s millennials, “making a difference in the world.” The two young women, as Gutfeld described it, “bravely went out into New York City to help others overcome bad choices they made in their lives. Of course I’m talking about man buns.”
Fitting in the tone of an intervention, a “viewer discretion is advised” message appears and dramatic music plays. After a brief introduction, Nosuchinsky and Timpf went up to various young men in the city to approach them about their man bun in an effort to set them on a better path.
Nosuchinsky and Timpf approached various young men with man buns as if they were engaging in a real intervention. Some admitted, others tried to deny they had a man bun. One young woman didn’t mind her friend’s man bun look so much, to which Nosuchinsky offered then that “okay, obviously the trend has just clouded her judgment.”
When the young men took down their man buns, it was quite the emotional affair, with hugs, tears, and proclamations that they “found the Lord.”
After such progress, the video showed that 30 seconds later these men were putting their hair back into man buns, which Timpf worried about as these men “relapsing,” who she then approached and encouraged to go back to treatment.
Although Nosuchinsky and Timpf mentioned it’s “a disease,” and that one in four relapse, they did close with how important it is to host such bun-terventions.
At the close of the segment, Gutfeld mentioned that “that may have been the best thing I have ever seen in my life.”
