"Mr Portunity. Senior executive at a major news organisation" Originally aired on ABC TV: 24/03/2016 www.mrjohnclarke.com / mrjohnclarke / clarkeanddawe
Absolutely!!! Politicians are the soap opera and the population are the audience Nothing has changed since the election...it never does ..just changes characters to keep the opera going
It really is one of the best ones because it doesn't get too absurd that you realize it's satire right away. It definitely feels like one of those rare news interviews where the guy is just a complete imbecile.
This one has has to be close to their best. The pure truthfulness of it. He was just so observant of what was happening around him. Old John would have a field day to day with Albanese and Wong Pty Ltd.
Like Game of Thrones. Fights over meager politics as the climate, relatively ignored, rears its ugly head and makes everything else irrelevant when it fucks shit up. True to life, I'm afraid.
Haven’t you been saying the same thing for the past 70 years? “The climate will radically change in the next 10 or 15 years and humanity will cease to exist”. Every decade or so you make a prediction and push it into everyone’s faces and suppress any of the evidence or research that contradicts your narrative, and when it inevitably turns out to be false sweep it under the rug, ignore it and make a new one rinse and repeat oh but we are right THIS TIME. It’s so obvious that this is all about power and control.
You guys are going to be so disappointed when the earth is still inhabitable in 20 years and it turns out that this is all a big scam (again) all the people pushing it are alarmist snake oil salesmen who want a carbon tax and a new world order (again) and you were all duped into a giant ponzy scheme to take away your rights, autonomy and standard of living. But don’t worry society should fully collapse in 20-23 years so you can look forward to that
Regenerative Agriculture which has become a lot more than that pedestrian name indicates (reclaiming deserts, complete rebuttal to the AGW hysteria, health & nutrition) is well worth the deep dive. Australia has some world leaders in its scientific development and Aussie farmers are coming on board; but they need consumers seeking out their produce, that's us.
Just update the names, this never gets it wrong, whenever you get down politically and wonder where we are going just watch these geniuses at work will never be out of date.😂🎉😊
So, July 2nd we have either the revolving door on the left, or the revolving door on the right. Sir Tony's echo chamber taunts to Labor about party instability have come full circle to haunt him forevermore. This could be a proof of Karmic forces of the universe if there ever was one.
When you watch and remember just how brilliant they were/are, gosh, how you miss them! Priceless. A recommendation....instead of climate CHANGE....how about climate CRISIS. Which is what we have got, now, and telling it how it IS.
In the world of news. That , makes or breaks humanity. Cause if they are calling me stupid, I won't allow such behavior from a complete stranger making assumptions about me. They dont know what I have been through, they dont know me. Judging people they dont know... the audacity. They must be a shity person then. Lol but if its calling the general public stupid, that's ok and accepted to the individual, thinking "well there are a lot of stupid people out there" instantly making themself not part of the generally stupid. We made and gave meaning to many words for our understanding and most words having multiple meanings, but its tragically ironic that hypocrisy has become the bane of our existence. Many understand the meaning but few take notice and simply remain in denial. Yet can't help themselves to jump at the chance of noticing hypocrisy among others, nothing better feeling then feeling "right" no matter what it's about.
+werriboy55 Amazing to think that John Hewson would almost be a good fit for the left wing of the ALP these days. shows how far to the right the Overton Window has moved.
"...Any women in it? Yes there are some very good secondary roles." Hahaha
Julia Gillard has left the chat :(
"The space where news used to be..."
I love the look of excitement on his face and the sound of his voice while he's talking about the party.
The euphamisms were amazing. As soon as that party line came up, I lost it.
"The news are not fixing the problem. "
Probably the best combination of words I've ever heard put together.
5 years later.. the show is still running... Scott is still there.. sadly no one has made much effort to fix the planet yet.
Fwoof You got your wish :-)
Scott went down on a little kid....
Because the planet's stupid. Hence the title, "It's the Planet Stupid"
They tried to fix the planet, but the front fell off
The planet has always taken care of itself
Planet Stupid. Everything makes so much more sense now.
Makes a great clothing label...LOL
And 5 years later, Scott became a main recurring character in the soapie known as Australia.
Absolutely!!! Politicians are the soap opera and the population are the audience
Nothing has changed since the election...it never does ..just changes characters to keep the opera going
Imagine the satire these two could do nowdays
Rest easy John. You're a legend
"...a knifing incident..." lol always love Clarke & Dawe. If only life was as funny. ;-\
But, it is - do you think they make this stuff up? That was half the joke of 'Clarke and Dawe'.
its called the planet stupid and why aren't they fixing the planet? because they are having a huge fight. I nearly died lol
I saw "the front fell off" one a few month ago.....i legit thought it was a real news interview
Meeeeeeeee 2
The Pie effect
Check out "European Debt Crisis" and "Quantitative Easing"; two of my favorite skits.
It really is one of the best ones because it doesn't get too absurd that you realize it's satire right away. It definitely feels like one of those rare news interviews where the guy is just a complete imbecile.
This channel is ridiculously underrated!
You guys are great :-D
+TheChosenJuan i agree the plant is stupid i mean the plants stupid.
How fabulous are these two... and particular John. RIP
a genius. He will be missed.
Agreed. As Fred Dagg in NZ in 70s, he could silence a public bar for 2minutes. A rare experience.
It's 2024 and I still love these guys.
💔 RIP John Clarke
I miss the weekly dose of these two legends taking the piss out of anything or anyone. Was the only time I would watch ABC
John Clarke is still needed. Died too young.
They foresaw the rise of ScoMo before he even knew what he was doing.. 😂😂
He still doesn't know what he's doing.
@@amosw766 Yes does, he working his way to his retirement job
on board of some bank.
@@ivanolsen8596 hahahhaha
he knew. Thats why he is the PM. Gotta get a run up at these things.
True true true 💯💯💯👍👍👍🤡🤡🤡
I love how often he throws "Brian" in there when talking lol
ABSOLUTELY BRILLANT ...A LITTLE PIECE OF ME DIED ,WHEN FRED DEPARTED
@June Miller Fred Dagg
Never heard of these guys, bloody funny, greetings from Ireland
RIP John :(
"What space?"
"The space where news used to be, Brian."
“What space?”
“The space where News used to be, Brian.”
😂😂😂
This one has has to be close to their best. The pure truthfulness of it. He was just so observant of what was happening around him. Old John would have a field day to day with Albanese and Wong Pty Ltd.
so current yet its been soo long since this aired, i wish this would come back.
Like Game of Thrones. Fights over meager politics as the climate, relatively ignored, rears its ugly head and makes everything else irrelevant when it fucks shit up. True to life, I'm afraid.
lol "The space where news used to be."
Can't get enough of these geniuses!
Keep up the good work fellas. Your country needs you.
Rome burns while Nero fiddles.
Thank you for this line.
@@JamieMiller7 Gonzo sings while George Burns. A line from the Muppets years ago..
Cheers from John, Australia.
Timeless - and nothing has changed except the bit part characters
Y’all are pure gold
yeehah....
Just discovering these guys....brilliant!
well make sure you see the part where the front fell off.
1MrAustin123 love that one but i had a problem i watched it and my front door fell off 🤣🤣
Wish there was a love button.
RIP John Clarke
Michelle Coles RIP Fred Dagg.
Absolutely hilarious, unfortunately accurate and will be relevant for the next 15 years.
Haven’t you been saying the same thing for the past 70 years?
“The climate will radically change in the next 10 or 15 years and humanity will cease to exist”.

But don’t worry society should fully collapse in 20-23 years so you can look forward to that
Even if this was real do you think humans would be able to do anything about it? But it’s not so you can stop being so upset over it
Lol Shell oil is the ad before this clip. Priceless!!
Great show people 💯💯💯👍👍👍
Absolutely brilliant!
This is the best one
Really clearly a spike in views when John Clarke died. He will be missed (but probably not by -lying- all politicians).
That was brilliant.
cue this past the 2020 bushfires and scott morrison flying off for a holiday these guys saw it coming years ago.
'The Australian' newspaper covers climate change news - provided it relates to something a skeptic/denier said.
Regenerative Agriculture which has become a lot more than that pedestrian name indicates (reclaiming deserts, complete rebuttal to the AGW hysteria, health & nutrition) is well worth the deep dive. Australia has some world leaders in its scientific development and Aussie farmers are coming on board; but they need consumers seeking out their produce, that's us.
Don't we have to shoot 40,000 elephants first to get street cred?
Continuity and change!
One Flew Over The Coupe De Ta". Always something to crow about Mr Dawe
You guys are amazing as always 😂😂😂
They're knifing each other all the time
oh my god i am about to die from asphyxiatione frum laughing too much plz send help
These guys are SO good!
There’s only one now.
this should be a part of political based subjects. the best run down of politics.
Bloody beautiful stuff, Scomo was a known grub in 2016, love it
True true true bro bro bro 💯💯💯🤡🤡🤡👍👍👍
The best part is the first time I saw these two in "the front fell off" I thought it was real. When I found out is was satire I was actually very sad.
Hahaha love it! 😂
Absolutely hilarious 😂😂😂
"They're knifing each other all the time."
"The space were news used to be" 😆😆😆
Just update the names, this never gets it wrong, whenever you get down politically and wonder where we are going just watch these geniuses at work will never be out of date.😂🎉😊
the problem with this video is it makes it look like Australians actually pay attention to the political drama.
LeroyPeterson accept for the fact that he was a new zealander.
yeah we should just let them do what they want and not pay attention good way to lose all your rights @LeroyPeterson
Timeless. You can paste this on current events seamlessly.
Strongly agreement
Malcom , Tony , Bill , and new friend Scott .
So, July 2nd we have either the revolving door on the left, or the revolving door on the right. Sir Tony's echo chamber taunts to Labor about party instability have come full circle to haunt him forevermore. This could be a proof of Karmic forces of the universe if there ever was one.
Don't blame me; I voted for Kodos.
never mind the rudd-gillard-rudd, the abbott-turnbull-morrison came along to fix everything
Okay, so every time he says "Brian" we all drink.
#PlanetStupid
Make it trend!
Genius level shit man
no matter how hard i try i cant say brian the same way he does
Scott.....*narrows her eyes* Clarke and Dawe were prophets!
Scott ended up getting his ultimate revenge.
That didn't age well mate....
When you watch and remember just how brilliant they were/are, gosh, how you miss them! Priceless.
A recommendation....instead of climate CHANGE....how about climate CRISIS. Which is what we have got, now, and telling it how it IS.
how did he name multiple prime ministers like that
Monty python: Exists
Australia: Hold my Foster’s
you done spelt Tooheys wrong
@@hankfrennig I got it XXXX...............
More like:
Australia: Take our Foster's...
... ... ... ... Please take our Foster's
@@EarlJohn61 Australians don't drink it you never see it outside of Sickny or Mobern.
"... the space where news used to be" lmao
Is this "take two"? 🤣🤣🤣
Very accurate! So true smh
Spoiler alert; Scott got the sack,
Malcom holds a grudge, Tony shirt fronted himself and Bill sells Chips.
A knifing incident 😂😂
' so you can see why it grips an audience' hahah
Watch this space
hahahahha Cool :D l like it
The planet appocalypse

Why does he keep saying Brian?
ahahahaha
Is it the planet that's stupid, or is it Malcolm, or is it John????
This is so sad. We ded.
Change the names and it fits with pretty much every damn country 😅
Does anyone have Paul Keating's phone number?
***** I remember when he was the most hated Prime Minister in the history of Australia. We just didn't know how good we had it. ;-)
+werriboy55 Amazing to think that John Hewson would almost be a good fit for the left wing of the ALP these days. shows how far to the right the Overton Window has moved.
*☼ SPOILERS*
Oh John and Bryan, where's the correct captions? Google's auto-craptions just make the planet more stupid!!
+lyn lockrey No its the Planet More, Stupid.
Basically predicted the 2019 elections lol.
Brilliant. What a huge loss John Clarke is to Australian comedy.
If they had albanese to mock omg the material would be endless could make a mini series just about him
Is this real?
No they have done sketch comedy for years. A lot of the stuff they talk about is accurate to Australian politics though
Not prophetic enough. The soap turned into a zombie apocalypse flick.
Ringing more true every watch
ABC, where is the next satire team who have more substance then cheap pop quips?
