Yeah, that's great. It was planned out.

Lowtax gave the person strict orders;

"I think you should concentrate on making SA seem like the worst site in the world. Come off as a real jerk. Refer to SA by the wrong name, like "Something Is Awful dot com" or "Some Things Awful." Make up facts about the site. Claim I'm in jail. Say we're being investigated by the FBI. Seriously, make sure everything you say is 100% wrong. Don't answer any questions legitamately. I want people who never heard of SA before the interview to think it's a horrible site and never want to visit.If I look at the SA stats and notice traffic has spiked after your interview, I'm going to know you did a terrible job"
 
I was absolutely dying when I saw this interview last night. What's so funny about it is how he keeps a completely straight face throughout the entire thing. I really bet there were people watching at home who thought he was serious.

The host was confirmed to be in on the joke.
Well it sure didn't look like it. Kevin looked like he was ready to freak out trying to talk to that dude. That's the first time I've ever seen a guest seriously make Kevin shut up and just listen, normally he's always interrupting with his own jokes. He looked helpless and even after they cut to the commercial he still looked nervous around him.
 
Yeah, the big awkward pause at the end of the interview.. concluded with a "Hey! That about wraps this up then.." was great.
