Just click play and listen to the opening dialog for 10 seconds. You'll get an immediate sense of who Grimes actually is. She's not the "typical musician celebrity weirdo" that people assume she is. Totally 180 degrees from that. She's not a mere novelty, grand spectacle, all sizzle no steak, etc. She's brimming with wonderful energy. She's just flat-out cool.
In fact, Lex seemed to be falling flat and eventually was reduced to just peppering her with absurd philosophy-101 non-sequitur questions, which seemed almost insulting, as if he was saying "clearly you can't hold a conversation, so let me bail you out". It was so odd and out of place. She very politely called him out on it. I wonder if he was just really hung over and trying to get through it, because otherwise it made no sense to do that within what was otherwise and excellent back and forth.
