This interview transcript took a hilariously NSFW turn thanks to a plant-munching deer
Freelance journalist and researcher Dan Reilly has interviewed many celebrities who are more than household names – they’re legends.
Amongst his archives, you can find conversations with Mick Jagger, Aretha, Ringo Starr and the much-missed, multi-award-winning singer Tony Bennett.
At the end of a recent interview on the game-changing strikes by WGA and SAG-AFTRA members, Dan’s recorder caught some extra content. It’s (understandably) a little NSFW.

The last thing anyone needs is Bambi’s distant cousin in their herbaceous borders – even if it’s this cute –
Here’s the asshole, by the way. pic.twitter.com/7COponsfh6

You can stop saying “Awww!” if you’re not the ones getting your hostas munched. The accidental postscript proved very popular.
code-switching! https://t.co/PXVzK12RqE pic.twitter.com/NAMfY0uSXR

Some people teased out a little more information, which was priceless.
Oh my god this is so funny 😂

haha, and what it doesn't pick up is my dog going nuts over it and me stomping outside to shoo the thing out of the yard.

Interesting that you would publish this provocative report without getting a comment from the deer

i think this is fake because there's no way i've ever cleanly wrapped up an interview with such a short, concise, quick sentence. "Yeah, no, really really- just great. 100% will do, shoudl be soon- not sure – OK OK OK thanks- yeah, you too have one thanks see ya k"

Yeah, all of that usual mumbling is above this excerpt.

It inspired others to recount similar mishaps.
bahaha reminds me of the greatest interview we ever did when I was at Babbel, with the guy who created the Game of Thrones languages, and his cat decided to puke up a hairball in the middle of the interview and the transcript caught all of it pic.twitter.com/swDeGCQmdV

Somewhere there's a transcript of me saying "Thank you so much for your time, I'll give you a call back if I have any questions, all right, bye HEY NO STOP THAT JESUS CHRIST WHY WOULD CRACK ALL OF OUR EGGS ON THE CARPET?"

My mom & I were in Boulder eating at Jax fish house when the naked bikers rolled by. I was talking while my mom was trying to text my dad. The text that ended up sent by Siri w/out permission was “we’re at Jax house naked for dinner”. That was fun to explain.

However, it wasn’t the first time life had encroached on one of Dan’s interviews, and on one occasion, the interviewee was still there.
Haha wow. That is incredible. I couldn’t get this into the article but when I talked to Clive Owen, my mother-in-law started vacuuming the room above me. Mid-answer, he just goes “what the hell is that noise?” and I had to explain it all. He thought I almost got hit by a train.

Just so you don’t think that living alongside wild animals is all swearing and garden destruction, we’ll leave you with this.
new family came by today. This one walked over to me and made these cute noises. A diabolically effective ruse. pic.twitter.com/OUAtzKMbU8

Now you can say “Awww!”
