Sad thing is less and less people want to think for themselves. And a few attack others for thinking differently.

....In the best of ways

The problem is the more he made us think the less he was funny. I don't laugh at his later stuff.

Beautifully said indeed

that unironically made me change the way i see the world

@@themangoman9315 As a catholic apostate i rarely find myself giving props to religion, but some sura goes something like "killing a person is like killing all of humanity", mourning a world bereft of their decendents. The problem with capital punishment for example is not only making possible mistakes irrevocable, we'll never mine wisdom from a missing rest of a story. Rarely seeing the whole picture we take how we frame an issue and start swinging, because that's how conversation works often enough to set as default. The deliberative approach of colaborative exploration would be so much more rewarding than scoring in a debate. We definately need honest, rigorous debates, but after them wouldn't it just be awesome if the participants then stuck their heads together and let us in on their findings? Stuff like social engineering in the business of division isn't resisted, if we allow propagandists to feed us their feindbild and entrench us out of fear of immaterial differences. Deviating from fairly talking things out reliably goes to shit, but yay for us, sucks for them. Destabilizing foreign markets to buy for pennies on the dollar instead of nurturing the potential of future allies, a combative "i fuck you before you get a chance to fuck me"-approach, is just the next fiscal quarter kind of thinking that cheats everybody and cooks the globe. Ramble, ramble. Sorry. I very much appreciate George's message resonated with you and wish you all the best.

Yes. Picked up the torch in his own way.

That was the first ting to cross my mind when I heard George say that.

As someone that went through an addiction to opioid painkillers when I was younger that part really... hit me I guess you could say. I'm not sure exactly how to put it. But I'll also admit like George, I enjoy marijuana, had a little more than one hit though. I only like it at night not long before I lay down for bed, at the end of the day when I can chill by myself or maybe a close friend or family member, would probably have crazy anxiety if I had to be in public or esp at work (live in a state with medical and have had a card ~6 years).

Hate to break it to you, but George had absolutely nothing to do with WHO "opened a college show" for him. Especially a "One Hit Wonder" like Dr. Hook!! Lmfao

@@johnguest9881 I wonder how much overlap there is between people who like George Carlin and people who like Dr. Hook. It doesn't include me, I must say.

@@johnguest9881 Yes, headliners often have noting to do with selection of their opening act, but sometimes they have lot to do with it. Dr.Hook had ten US Top 40 hits and were even bigger in some overseas countries. So what do you mean by "one hit wonder"?

I concur with Jeffrey, the convenience of digitized information/ experience is a great benefit to posterity, and wonderful entertainment,and rememberance to so many. In short..."you got a pretty mouth, boy".

Yeah I'm only 25 and Carlin is one of my favorites. The guy was real, smart and didn't give a shit about what people thought about him. Miss that guy.

+YoDatCHT me too, and I discovered him at the most impressionable time in my life and I'm glad I found him and not religion or something else or a crummy comedian because he taught me so many important things. I would label myself a Carlinite. he opened so many doors that would have otherwise been left shut or opened later and I wouldn't question everything. Bill Maher and John Stewart kinda picked up the ball after George kicked the bucket. John Oliver kind of although he cracks some redundant jokes all that aside. it's wonderful I started watching such an incredible mind. I'm hope you have as well. lately though it's Desus and Mero. couple black cats way way opposite of that crappy key and peel. a real class act (jerking off motion) jokes aside. he opened my mind to all sorts of new ideas. and that's his goal. much like lenny : Bruce bill hicks also liked. oh and can't forget about another intellectual Richard Pryor. he goes with this group too. maybe even. go watch for those guys, you'll be happy you did

Truth

Saw him a few years before his death, and he was hilarious. He had a difficult time on stage, but he toughed it out like a champion.

Jonathan Stuart Leibowitz

He was a funny philosopher

While I don’t wish for a return to the “good old” racism of the past, back when tribalism and identity politics didn’t dominate discourse… that WAS a far happier era.

Philosophy

I remember that! Love him so much. I got such a kick as a parent watching Thomas the Tank with my then toddler and now that he's 13 getting to expose him to George ❤

@@pjt3887 His role as the narrator for the US dub of Thomas & Friends was my first introduction to him. As I grew up, I started watching some of his comedy bits and realized just how wise he was. He was truly a national treasure and I'm still heartbroken that he's no longer here with us.

You should watch the show OffCamera. There are clips here on KZfaq.

Great interviewers do listen. Bad interviewers are insecure/nervous they wont get their questions asked and/or they're terrified of silence and feel the need to fill in the silence. Real or imagined. (Some musicians are terrified of silence too). Your ears cant work when your mouth is moving. More people need to remember that.

It's because his favorite thing in the world is to listen to Carlin.

@@henryriehl2058 maybe a better way to say it would be. 'Learn for yourself'

The Royal Society's motto 'Nullius in verba' roughly translates as 'take nobody's word for it'. They have been around for over 350 years. Not an original thought by George.

I think that anyone who's been fortunate enough to have discovered George Carlin, especially those who discovered him in their early, formative years, found him to be a positive influence in that he always called bull when he saw it and had a logical reasoning for doing so and always in an entertaining way. I know he helped me to be a skeptical, more independent thinker who never takes things at face value. He wasn't my only influence but he was definitely one of them. He didn't pull any punches regardless of politics, although he leant to the left. If he thought something was out of whack, hypocritical or downright wrong, he'd call it and always had an explanation of how he came to that conclusion. I didn't agree completely with everything he said at times but he'd inspire me to do a re-evaluation of my stance, which is something everyone should regularly do during their lifetime.

Amazing how much can hide in the past. When the universe can be shared through a look.

I found the "ethanol" description of why he wasnt around / his mother left him rather creative and quite a few will not understand it.

You can see the angst in his eyes and hear it in his voice. He nearly broke down right then. Heartbreaking is correct.

He hid a life-long sadness in that moment. A rare moment of vulnerability from George.

As much as he harped on Genetics being a positive thing for, he knows it includes the flaws; he is proud of his fathers mental strength but disappointed in the drinking. Carlin suffered from heart issues since 1978.

He said the future....

Absolutely!!

really?? Stuart went on to be an avowed Statist, the end of this has Carlin preaching AGAINST ALL FORMS of collectivism.

Wizard Guy; WTF ?

+Wizard Guy You are writing your own intent into his words. He was speaking about people who swap their individuality for a standard blueprint. That isn't something Stewart has ever done. The state is the method by which a society gets shit done. As individuals we all contradict eachother. We only achieve things beyond our individual abilities by working together and we only do that by agreeing to do so. You want to get something done across a society, you either get everyone to agree, or you get a smaller group together and make them make the decisions. That would be the government. Of course you then need to keep the government in line, which is where Stewart comes in. He watches them and their little games and when they start screwing up he points and yells to us 'hey... have you seen what they are doing now? This is why it's crazy or bad...'. Obviously he only yells when they are doing something crazy or bad, which is why it was called the Daily Show. Ultimately that is the role of a comedian. To stand up, point at things that are stupid and fucked up, and make us notice, and then laugh to stop us being afraid.

The State didn't invent specialization, the market did, noob.

Tim Burr his thoughts on many of subjects really open your eyes & minds to what is really going on, to this day.

But it was more about the people who control the government, the ultra rich.

more about the class of people that own everything including the government and people in it not just the government. he said the politicians are pawns to prop up an illusion.

“I have a few rules I live by, the first, I don’t believe anything the government tells me. Notta. Zero.”

Doesnt have to be that way, russians and french overthrew the rich and many countries are less bullshit than America current day. Primaries are happening now and you guys have a chance make a dent in the club.

Loved the way he p'wned Steven Colbert when he refused to accept the Wuhan Bat Origin BS story. Colbert just assumed he would "tow the party line". He was wrong. Jon Stewart seems too smart and too principled for that.

bunch of hot air bullshit... "I don't like groups with a common purpose?" nice policy

I'm of an age where Carlin formed the landscape of my world view and like you, also saw him in live performance. Your comment captures a lot of what made his comedy so unique and powerful. In my mind he was a late 20th century version of Will Rogers crossed with Bertrand Russell, and I agree that we need someone who can draw us to gaze upon our current situation with with both critical precision and skeptical amusement at the same time. Thanks man.

There might be more George Carlins, but in today society the brain-dead twitter crowd will cancel all of them before they have a chance to be self-reliant and unapologetic. Self-censoring one's thoughts to preserve a loyal public image is the new rule of the society, at least in the western world

All his comedy was thoughtful. I’m not sure what on earth you mean by that comment.

There are plenty of those people around. If you know one, care for them. God knows we dont take good care of ourselves

Yes. Well said. And so true.

yeah

It's what was so awesome about Carlin: here's a guy who knew how funny he was, a guy who is arguably the greatest stand-up, but it was never at the expense of others. I've watched him publicly say great things about comics like Jon Stewart, Jerry Seinfeld and Stephen Colbert, plus that call he gave Lewis Black in the 90s. And I'm sure there are others I don't know about, but he's the perfect representation of someone who goes far in life and then uses it to lift others.

What George said last gave me shivers.

He also really helped out Louis CK

That was my thought exactly!

Respect and recognition. Their comedic styles weren't all too different... I miss them both, I wish Jon would come out of retirement. His show (reinforced by Carlin's stand up) seeded my critical thinking

Stewart is no where close to Carlin's league. Not even in the same ballpark.

@@TrumpFanNetwork2 I wasn't talking about his comedy. I was talking about his passionate speech that convinced congress to fund the 9/11 workers fund. THAT was showing us A LOT.

​@@TrumpFanNetwork2 In all due respect... I think you have missed the point. If you think that Stewart wasn't funny. I think I can show you a very successful show that has made other successful comedians quite happy to be a part of said show... Do I need to list them? You fucking dolt. Stewart's program was as at least edgy as Carlin's stand-up, if not more so. If you think it's not as funny, well, that's all the same to you and me. But both have had years in political satire. And if you are saying that Carlin crushed it all. I think you forget the Obama years where Stewart worked that administration over as well. I love them both for questioning authority.

Stewart is a puppet. I woke up to him when he had Obama on his show. Stewart rolled over like a puppy. He's a wolf in sheeps clothing.

Carlin wasn't a comedian - not truly. He was a philosopher who told jokes. Most everything he said at stand up was told to make a point about our lives, punctuated with funny anecdotes or punch lines. Once he hit his stride coming out of the 70's, I can't recall a single special he did that was filled with "just for a laugh" jokes.

I dont wanna be too picky , but george was a philosopher , he hated psychology, very big difference

He ended up as America's conscience.

@WorldFlex Agreed!

I'd say philosopher.

@@Noname-cn4ly I hope your family visits you more often and that they give you a lot of warm love, because you definitely deserve that 🙏🙏

Perfectly said sir

+MattyWgtn what gets me is his revelation of seeing his fans and his comedic successors as the family that he never had. It becomes very clear how he felt such responsibility on the stage, to teach his audience something about themselves and about the world around them; and the responsibility to help those up and coming he knew would do the same. That is a good man, right there. Would that more industries treat people as people, that humanism could still be at the core. He gave back. And we, all of us who listen to him as a comedian, as a writer of prose, as a statesman, are all better for it.

Well stated!

I don't know, I still miss the hippy dippy weatherman

It really is amazing that Carlin saw greatness in Stewart back in 97

Stewart really was, and still is, a useless arrogant prick.

I could see it too, that s hard

aye, even if we are social beings it's individual qualities that make us what we are. Now it is a norm to talk about fitting in and peer pressure and correctness, to not offend anybody, that sounds dull and a recipe for stagnation. As George said we have enough in common already, and i say it's our differences we have to celebrate rather then hate

My father, who looked very much like Carlin, worked in the entertainment industry & was also highly intelligent & hilariously funny, had the opportunity to work with him several times. He had always been a fan before meeting, but much more after meeting him... my Dad LOVED George Carlin the person & said that he was just as he is in clips like this. He also worked with another HUGE comedy star that he considered to be the worst person he ever met... BILL COSBY.
