How Tom Hanks responds to an interview request with a typewriter
The folks at Nerdist sent Tom Hanks an antique typewriter as a gift with an invitation to join them for an episode of their podcast. Here’s his response, written with his new vintage typewriter…
And here’s the resulting interview.

Chris Hardwick is a brilliant dude. I look forward to this podcast!
THIS IS A MUST READ!!! It is time for our share of the handouts. Just check this out. GOOGLE the term ” RICH PENNY TRICK ” and click the first site. Then click on the PENNY STOCK page to see what the rich are hiding from us. It is time we all get our share and this will help. If you want cash, then this will get you there. If you want to see how some of these yahoos made their millions off of us, then this is a must see!
No auto-correct on a typewriter!
I think all the typos are letters typing on top of each other, such as “ad” instead of “and” and “e ople” instead of “people”.
Oops, he did misspell “appearance”. …..Cue psychotic laughter from Money Pit.
Hey,’geniuses’, that was the JOKE, he misspelled in purpose to show how
‘great’ the type writer is! he was being ‘sarcastic’, Tom Hanks way! How do you i*** manage to open the internet?
Best podcast episode of any show ever.
Tom Hanks is just awesome.
I wish I had an old typewriter to bribe Tom Hanks with. I wonder if there are other loveable celebrities who would respond like this.
Whomever can get this message to Tom Hanks, there is a “Pickers’ mall in Concord, North Carolina that has old typewriters. Ir’s in our mountains and is called The Depot.
I also have a portable Royal which has only caps that I’m ready to let go.
Anybody interested?
