“Dude! That’s gay” ~ Shane Gillis

Jimmy Carr is one of the most under appreciated comedians. 8 out of 10 cats is both hilarious and insightful at times. Randomly found it years ago in KZfaq recommended and it’s pretty obvious with Jimmy as host he carried the entire show(he is host of more than one) then they made him the focal point. at first I thought weird British humor, but the dude genuinely makes me laugh out loud.

@@slingshot7792 Well maybe in the US, he's anything but "under appreciated" in the UK

I believe America will become Hollywood

​@@user-wu1bl5ns8iamerica already was Hollywood but "hollywood" is for sure more global then its ever been now. You have russian movie communities, a bollywood movie won some Oscar's the other year, alot of people watch anime now too its for sure gone global

​@@darbstre2900I get the sarcasm but Hollywood has the most influence, by far.

If Rome became the church and GB a bank, perhaps the USA becomes the global war machine, free of the constraint of not just others borders but its own - a "World Police" if you will.

The United States is also a continuation of the British empire in ways aswell. Picked up the reins and started utilising the systems the British created in order to further their grip on global hegemony. Along with all the founding fathers being British meaning the values and culture are extremely similar. Just continued anglo hegemony over the world.

That's because all Americans tend to go on about is how great they think the place is, usually without having the first clue about the world. It's a superiority complex born out of ignorance that annoys people who know better. I've been to the US twice and I hated it, I could never live there although there were some things I liked and in general the people weren't as arrogant as I was expecting. There's a weird vibe, it felt fake but I do like the look of New Orleans.

I dream of visiting Japan, now that seems like my kind of place. Spiritual without being religious, natural beauty and I've been precticing karate for 30 years. What's it like to live there?

@@a-walpatches6460 Hard. Especially if you're a broke peon living paycheck to paycheck like me. Do I regret my decision to move here? No, not yet. The people are really nice, and I find my work very fun and rewarding. I haven't been here that long, but so far I'm constantly having to allocate my free time to getting documents together so that city hall has them on file. The bureaucracy is very demanding and notifies you such that you just barely have time to get things together on the due date.

This happens in every country. I live in the UK and you honestly can’t find anybody on tv or online saying a positive word about it.

It’s American to talk about the flaws and push forward to help better. A lot of blood on this country’s hands but it has always tried to move forward, that I can respect. So much wealth we are lucky to be American coin that respect. But don’t shame ppl for exercising their right to want better or to criticize the wrong this country has done

Crazy how people listen to one clip and form opinions of their ability to think. Louis CK thinks borders should be wide open. Sometimes comedians say something so stupid, it cancels out other things. Carr's said some dumb things too.

r1961 you've a point. I was just referring to this clip. This is a refreshing take compared to the general doomerism others have been spouting.

There’s loads of comedians on the ball

​@@hebber1961Crazy how you assume people couldn't have possibly looked into things on their own and just agree with a point made in a clip.

Agree, listening to this podcast was eye opening. I always thought Jimmy was funny but never would have thought he was that knowledgeable.

Jimmy classically educated.

Wealth of opinion….

Comedians are all generally knowledgeable

in Jimmy's case, he went to university and worked for a large company in corporate UK before becoming a comedian so he's surely well knowledged.

Porto is nice as well

British people are hilarious, have a great sense of humour and can laugh at themselves.

If you go to any pub in Britain you will find someone who could be easily be a comedian but is just content with smoking a pack of Marlboro and a pint.

Guys, firstly, America is NOT “the Empire,” only a tentacle of it. The Empire is bigger than “America”. We were re-ensnared by the Empire back in the 1800s and now we’re becoming the reality of what happens when aristocracy no longer needs us as we’ve grown accustomed to being needed as.

Yeah although he fails to appreciate just how much violence we have exported to the world over the last 60 years. I think it is probably right to expect that if you export violence you will eventually import it. Cause and effect. So there's that. What that will look like and when...no idea.

"I was reading the newspaper today, the headline said 'man held after r*pe'. I thought to myself, 'that was nice of her'" - Jimmy Carr

Link??

Something being based on X isn't the same as being X. At the height of empire, the British saw themselves as cultural successors to the Greeks and Romans (see their architecture, their worship of classics, even their music - e.g. the British grenadiers). They weren't the Romans though, that empire ceased over a thousand years before they ascended.

It's almost as if the bible is right...

You forget it also moved East and lasted untill 14 something or other.(Byzantine Empire)

@@nickelmouse451the British actually were the Romans though since we have Roman heritage.

@@imgoingonamarch No. There is miniscule Roman genetic influence. Culturally you could say the Romans influenced and inspired a lot, but they massacred villages, tens of thousands of people, marching across Germanic Europe.. and in the end it was Germanic people (including Saxons) who conquered Western (true) Rome. They insulted us, humiliated us, scattered us, but united, we were stronger. We across Europe still hold Rome and it's empire with nostalgia and reverence though. If it wasn't for Rome, there would have been no great French, German, Dutch, Spanish, Portuguese or British Empires. The specture of Rome, the fear they put in the world that there might be some distant "great power" that might just sweep in and take over, absolutely escalated a desire recreate this pre-emptive strength and breadth.

ps with booze and maybe some some other social lubricates

Yeah pal British took advantage of poor countries war troten countries it even got people hooked on drugs to cripple them the Spanish empire on the other hand now that was an empire and we add the Portuguese in that combo it was definitely people not to be trifled with

That was only after Spanish Imperialism.

Greatest empire in history.

@@spiderqueen601the British learnt what not to do from the Spanish. The Spanish tried to conquer England and failed, Britain still has Gibraltar 🇬🇧

As an Englishman it’s depressing how far my country has fallen. At least America is still respected, England gets no respect anymore.

indeed

It always is. Internal issues weaken an empire until external forces can come in and finish it off

You're both correct and wrong at the same time. Israel is killing this country and they are both an outside force but also have occupied this country so they are within.

A house divided ..

Exactly, while you Americans trying to weaken Russia and failing, China is sitting in the back rubbing their hands and smiling evilly. And it’s matter of time when Europe will turn their backs to USA because they will see that they suffer for your agenda.

Yes he was lying, violent crime has gone up in Portugal since they legalised drugs, drug dealing (controlled by eastern europeans and north africans) is through the roof. There are drug abusers laid all over the streets and they have a generation of children hooked on marijuana. The Portuguese “example” is absolute nonsense. Compare to Japan which has very low drug use and out-performs Portugal on every objective measure. Don’t believe somebody because they are a famous comedian.

@@paxbritannica5598 No he wasnt :D I live in Lisbon, and Portugal is probably top 2 or top 3 the safest country in Europe. If there is any crime, you as a torist will not even experience it.

Stupidly, as part of the EU, you are being forced by other European billionaires (who will profit greatly) to act as a guinea pig for the rest of us. Crime is on the rise and your youth rot their brains with cannabis, clinically objectively proven to cause psychosis. This is not good for Portugal, and I’m speaking as somebody who loves Portugal. I am from a terrible shit town in England and I don’t want to see your country ruined like mine. Ps. The idea that there is no crime in Portugal is hilarious. Girls are scared to take an uber in Portimao because they are getting sexually abused by foreigners every week. Don’t believe me. Speak to your friends there.
