Zach Galifianakis ‘interviews’ President Obama on ‘Between Two Ferns’

...

In case you’re wondering, on the FunnyOrDie.com show “Between Two Ferns,” comedian and actor Zach Galifianakis sits with his guests literally between two ferns as they do the interview.

But this interview was a big get.

Galifianakis has sat with some of the most famous names in Hollywood, but the President of the United States trumps them all.

He asked President Barack Obama everything from foreign policy to questions about Michelle Obama. And while the star of the “Hangover,” is known for taking thinly veiled shots at his guests, Obama fired back.

And he doesn’t have a new movie or a new album, but like every other talk show guest, he did have something to plug, the much maligned: healthcare.gov.

As it turns out, Zach Galifianakis desperately needs health insurance.
