You could not argue with Frank Zappa, he had true insight and no BS, so ahead of his time and gone way too soon!

Frank Zappa like George Carlin are two of the best American philosophers this country has ever produced in modern times. Both of them predicted exactly the hell we are in now before they died. The forethought of this man (a musician) is chilling.

Imagine Kid Rock or Ted Nugent having a fraction of Frank’s intellect?

I had the privilege of seeing Zappa live 3 times, he was superb! A truly enlightened guy, years ahead of his time musically and philosophically.

Zappa and Carlin, the truth was told long ago with these genius poets

Frank Zappa, a real American Patriot.

It is terrifying how on point Zappa was. All remember, history repeats itself.

I remember when Frank Zappa took congress to school. That is when I realized this man is highly intelligent

We need a man like Frank Zappa.

I remember watching this interview and remember it. Rest in Peace Frank Zappa ✌️❤️🌼

Frank Zappa speaking the truth from his grave. We lost a very wise man indeed. Miss ya Frank, bet you never thought you'd still be quoted in 2024 !

Frank Zappa was a prince amongst men. Clear eyed and eloquent, he never shied away from fearlessly calling out hypocrisy and dishonesty. RIP Frank, you were a truth teller of the best sort and greatly missed.

We need more Frank Zappas in the country.

I’ve been a fan of Frank and the Mothers since a high schooler in the 60s. I saw him play at Winterland in San Francisco in ‘68. He told it like it is. A brilliant man and artist.

Frank Zappa and George Carlin never lied to us.

Such a great man to be lost so young! Frank Zappa was Phenomenal! A genius in so many ways. RIP my friend.

Frank Zappa Is A Brilliant Light For Us All And I Am Grateful For The Next Generation To Learn About Him And His Legacy Of Thoughtful Ideas And Amazing Music And Groove That Was Unique To Him. You Are A Gift Frank. Still Shining!!!! Blessings And Truth For All.

The LEGENDARY Frank Zappa RIP.

Those lyrics Frank recited are from "When The Lie's So Big" off the "Broadway The Hard Way" album.

I agree Ronald Reagan is the cause of this mess

Zappa was too ahead of the curve for a musician. He deserves way more respect in the modern era because everything he said then is still true now

Two Corinthians walked into a bar ...

The Iran/Contra scandal was a fun one!

That little "word flub" the announcer made, "Shepherdation of Church and State " was spot-on. There are only two reasons that people keep sheep: to be "fleeced" or to be killed and eaten. I refuse to be a sheep.

Zappa had all of these creeps number a long way back wonder what he would say about our current "Situation"!

America, you are arriving at the last chance saloon in November.

I think a series on the PMRC versus music would be a great series for you to do. The warning labels mean nothing, but I think a history lesson for the younger viewers is essential

ah Zappa, your missed

When a presidential candidate outright says he will not listen to bureaucrats but listen to God instead, then government as we know it will cease.

I miss Frank Zappa. Having both brains, and talent is rare.

I only knew Zappa the musician, this was eye opening for me. A very smart articulate commentator who really saw the writing on the wall.

WELL DONE, YOUNG MAN, AS ALWAYS!, KEEP EXPOSING THEM FOR WHO AND WHAT THEY TRULY ARE !!😊✌ ❤ LOVE, FRANK ZAPPA BTW.😊

Frank a very special man

Respect for Mr Zappa, spot on….. missed but his music lives on.

I'm surprised that people are astonished by an individual that utilizes critical thinking... or Make America Gullible Again. Peace on earth.

RIP Frank.

Frank Zappa was a highly intelligent rock God who would say what he thinks. RIP Frank. 🇦🇺 😁 💙💙💙

Tax the churches. Tax the businesses owned by the churches - FZ

I’m so sick of being saturated with the Christian mythology and hypocrisy.

You would think Frank was talking about today !!! His insight was incredible he seen it all happening before any of us !!!

I would settle for holograms of him and Carlin being our president and vice president for 8 years straight

I look forward to any Zappa videos you may do. Tipper and the PMRC, the long fight against that crap, and after all those years the fookin' implementation of it on YT would be some good viewing as well.

FZ album from 1988 broadway the hardway, ladies and gentleman, needs to be heard. get yer butt out there and register to vote.

Zappa nailed it

I've never been a big Frank Zappa music fan, so I don't know very much about him, but he hit the nail directly on the head in this interview. Very insightful. I am an unpopular Christian, and I am ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTED ON A DAILY BASIS at how the right twists the entire point of the message Jesus was trying to send about everyone including everyone, and everyone taking care of each other, into their own narrative of HATRED, DISCRIMINATION, and VIOLENCE. The leaders EXPLOIT "Christianity" in order to appeal to their base, and while they have their attention, they FEAR-MONGER THEM into a HATE-FILLED version of "Christianity" that I don't even recognize.

Man .. I always admired Zappa's thinking and ability with lucid expression of his perceptions.

It is interesting that both Zappa and George Carlin were very well known for pointing out that kings in very high places had no clothes. Is it coincidental that they both died unexpectedly and and relatively young?

It’s almost impossible to overstate how responsible Ronsld Reagan is for the situation we are in now.

Zappa would have been a fantastic president. Or at least an advisor to the president. Bernie is the closest thing to Zappas’ way of thinking. What he said about Regan is spot on

I never specifically listened to Frank Zappa's music or for that much, even knew who he was [in the rock music field]. I stumbled on a couple of interviews similar to this and thought, 'Finally! Someone speaking the absolute truth about the bullshit of "religion." '

H.L. Mencken and Sinclair Lewis were both prescient in predicting today's politics. Zappa was an amazing artist and human being. RIP. Elections matter...VOTE BLUE...no matter who...

Wow. Frank Zappa is awesome

Trump has been like a zit on the face of America. The pimple is about to pop.

My old mentor was an old Christian prophet from New Zealand (he passed on in 2014) who told me one time that the Lord took him to heaven in a vision, and he said that one thing that surprised him the most was that there were people there who he was sure would never make it, and there were a lot of people who he was sure would be there but weren't. He said that the Holy Spirit gave him a tour of different parts of heaven. I asked him how long he was there and he said it seemed like it was almost a month, but in real time the vision probably lasted for no more than five minutes. There are a lot of Christians who are sure that Frank Zappa is in hell, but one thing I can think of that might turn that idea upside down is the fact that he loved the truth, and Jesus said "I am the truth." And conversely, there are millions of professing Christians who hate the truth about many things, especially when it comes to politics.

His son is for supporting Ukraine financially

My Grandmother Sued Ronald Reagan, Whilst he was Governor of California. He slant Drilled Water, off the Chumash Reservation. and We Caught him. My Grandmother And Our Family Were Surveyors, for the California Government's, For Hundreds of Years. She Was Chairperson Of The Grange. 1st Woman,1st First Nations Person. Longest Running. When Santa Barbara Was A Ranching Community. If You've Enjoyed Organic Wine From San Yenez. Thank My Nana! Blessings And Truth For All.

Didn't what Zappa said already happen back in the late 1600s,in Salem village ,Ma ?

Huge respect for Frank

Frank Zappa never ridiculed religion he mearly stated how religion would replace the governments stature in the immediate future. Zappa was articulate in as much as he frame his words as intelligence is listening. Not debating but absorbing facts. He would have been a great statesman.

My favorite FZ quote: "if your kids knew how lame you really are, they would kill you in your sleep."

When Reagan was elected in 1980, I quit my job in L.A., quit law school, got an M.A. in linguistics, & moved to a civilized country in East Asia & a decade later to another one in SE Asia, where I still live & where all that's left of my family were born & raised. I'll die here w/o regret. Unjust States of Amerikkka (USA) is world's most corrupt & biggest 💩🕳 country.

I never knew this about Frank Zappa, but I am a black woman who just loved him and his music. I was so saddened when he passed.

I've been a big fan of Zappa since the 70's and not only because of his brilliant musicical compositions. He helped shape my political views and beliefs and he was a big influence in that he helped me in my teens when I had questions about the bible and god; even as a young child I had questions no adult we answer to my satisfactrion but later on when I heard of Zappa he helped me cut through all of the religious dogma and BS that helped me become the atheist I am today. Lastly, while I was learnig guitar I learned a lot from his guitar style.He is sorely missed. Vote blue.

Wow, this is amazing stuff right here. More people need to see this.

Damn, but we could use Zappa today...

Wow man. My first concert was with Frank Zappa. There was a reason for it.

The mothers was one of the first albums I owned, and the first concert I drove to. I got to see Frank Zappa on Halloween while I was tripping! And then I drove home! That was a hell of a night back when drugs were harmless! Frank Zappa didn't get high either! The man was a musical genius but I didn't realize what a political genius he was!

The Gates of Hell have opened wide for Robertson.

Proud of you lad for your observations.

i had a lovely evening watching zappa live in concert in the early 80s

I've always been a big Zappa fan. Listen to his lyrics. Poking fun while speaking truth.

Frank was the man

Between Frank and George Carlin, they both were prophets who saw how this country was going and where it would end....

Frank Zappa was a force of nature. He never baulked from spelling it out, telling the truth, warning us of the dangers waters ahead. Sorely missed. RIP

Thank you for acknowledging the importance of Frank Zappa in fighting the religious right. Zappa is completely correct, even today. What a talented man whom we lost far too young.

Ron Jr. would agree with this post.✌️💙 from Montana

Trump has never been religious. Fact is you can’t grift a grifter.

Yeah he was my first mistake at 18 years old I went and voted for him cuz he was an actor and I like actors yeah I found out Reagan economics did not work

For those of you wo are not familiar with the works of Frank Zappa, may I suggest you listen to Jesus thinks your a jerk, it is on the Broadway the hard way album, it is available to listen on you tube, but be sure you listen to it whilst reading the lyrics.

Two Corinthians walk into a bar…..

"Sometimes he talks to the audience. Sometimes there is trouble" From The liner notes of "Freak Out."

I was thoroughly shaken as a young teen when Reagan won the election, and it was intuition, and I was right

Can not stand T Rump

Zappa/Carlin 2024 ! !

Pat Robertson is to faith what Ted Bundy is to men. Robertson doesn't even believe what he's saying ffs. Frank Zappa was considered a weird guy but he was a pretty smart guy.

Oh Frank you taught us well

Rename all slums Reaganville, lest we forget his economic policies.

Beware the Church of the "Free" Market ....

Zappa was a genius in many areas. I miss his music and his outspokenness in interviews like this.

I was thrilled when Pat kicked the bucket. Same warm feeling I got when Limbaugh kicked it.

I think he would have spotted and saved us from Mitch 😢 Brilliant man and articulate.

I wish he ran for president.

The writing was on the wall way back then if you had the eyes to see it.

Frank seems to have been a really sharp guy.

Frank was right...... Don't eat the yellow snow and don't drink the orange kool aid 😑

Pats is a very warm spot sitting next to rush and they are both waiting for Mitch

Frank was an extremely intelligent man.

The primary function of Religion is to tell us who we should hate.

Regan was a terrible president.

I miss George Carlin, Robin Williams and Frank Zappa. If they were alive today, they'd have no end to material which they'd unfailingly craft into brilliant indictments!!
