I have never heard anyone who can answer a question, who is as reasoned and well-spoken and voluminously knowledgeable as he is. As example, no one has so thoroughly destroyed the idea of religion in so few words. It was reasoned and inarguable, hilarious and freeing. To think this man quit school 9th grade. One can only say, it was a wise move.
Rest in peace dear Georgie, thanks for being there for us, you had the power to make people think better and question better. You will be in remembrance forever.
George told it like was, Like it or not he brought alot of truth into the spotlight about how we as human beings live in todays world. He pointed out how the stupid things in life take control of our lives instead of common sense taking control.
Brilliant, absolutely brilliant. An artist, a genius, a true gentleman. I sure wish i could read some of those 1500 text files he had in his computer. I like how hereferenced a lot of talented comedians, but i'm surprised he never mentioned Bill Hicks, another comic genius and rebel like himself, i'm sure he must have at least heard of him. George Carlin's voice will forever be a shining beacon to guide humanity in the right way, if we ever choose to listen...
I'm just so glad this guy had some fucking balls and put them on the line to make us laugh while teaching us how to live our lives. A true American...the kind you "read" about in history books. R.I.P. George...never will forget what he taught me
That we don't have a giant of goodness and humour such as Carlin amongst us anymore just adds to the pain of evil money grabbing, power hungry sphincters like Pat Robertson and Henry Kissinger just not wanting to die.
Carlin is a brilliant speaker, the way he works with words and expression are freaking amazing! so why the fuck dose he have trouble explaining why he limited himself to cocaine and didn't do heroin and self destructed, it seams fairly simple compared to the other stuff he explains, there is something he is not telling us:P
Well actually it's that part where he mentions all the great talent that comedy has lost over the years, maybe because it's such an intense life they lead, then he mentions Hicks, Kauffman, and says that sometimes it's a natural disorder. But I never heard anything about the two of them not getting along, or something like that. Carlin did comercials, I'm sure Hicks didn't care for that hehehehe
@TheUSBcable How can you say that? It's 1 thing not to like somebody, but it is yet another thing stating that you are GLAD that someone is dead... It's pretty bad of you as a human...
The guys been dead for four years. He put out an album about every two and a half years. His books on CD are a lot of extra material, especially When Will Jesus Bring The Porkchops, that one alone is like six albums worth of material. So in my way of thinking, he won't really be out of new material till 2023.
interesting... but did not Newton possess genius? he most certainly backed up his intelligence with hard work and scientific rigor...And i feel like it's the same with Carlin

what i said was in no way a personal attack. although you somehow deduced it was. inside your own head. assuming multiple things about what i actually meant. when in fact i just meant you should open your eyes. thats all.

Thankx for this.......One of the few Carlin innerviews I haven't ever heard.....He is sorely missed by all his sarcastic fans.
Wish it was also on video. His expressions are priceless....thanks for uploading!
Probably the best interview with George! Maybe because he gives the BEST answers!! ❤
why is it that there is no one else i can listen to like this man
What a great intellectual individual.
A genius. one of the best people ever.
i haven't even started listening to it yet, but i already know it's gonna be positively brilliant!!!
I only found Carlin in the past couple of years. What a terrific comedian and discoverer of the stupidity in so much of what we do in life.
George told it like was, Like it or not he brought alot of truth into the spotlight about how we as human beings live in todays world. He pointed out how the stupid things in life take control of our lives instead of common sense taking control.
What a gent, he was a revelation and there will never be the likes of him again.
Brilliant, absolutely brilliant. An artist, a genius, a true gentleman.

He has heard of Hicks, he mentioned him in an interview with Jon Stewart
I love George Carlin... The interviewer cackles too much...
this guy led me to actually use my whole brain,..
I'm just so glad this guy had some fucking balls and put them on the line to make us laugh while teaching us how to live our lives. A true American...the kind you "read" about in history books. R.I.P. George...never will forget what he taught me
Amazing. I love Judy and goddamn Carlin has thought this shit through
George Carlin enjoyed the loving embrace
of truck drivers. He really did.
So true!
George for president! FTW
That we don't have a giant of goodness and humour such as Carlin amongst us anymore just adds to the pain of evil money grabbing, power hungry sphincters like Pat Robertson and Henry Kissinger just not wanting to die.
100%
George Carlin likes Mitch Hedberg, that is so fucking awesome....
Well, remember how he mentions Bill in that interview with Jon Stewart?
George Carlin
Bill Hicks
Richard Pryor
Rest in peace
Those I see can getting there: Dave Chappelle, Louis CK, Daniel Tosh

I doubt I am the only one who noticed the url for this vid has "Pbs".... this would not belong on that channel. :)
On the Island with Hendrix, Bon Scott, Santa Clauss and Jesus
Well actually it's that part where he mentions all the great talent that comedy has lost over the years, maybe because it's such an intense life they lead, then he mentions Hicks, Kauffman, and says that sometimes it's a natural disorder.

By Pesci I believe you're right! ;)
this is identical with the jon stewart intrerview O.o how did that happen?
aaaaaaaaaahhh he'll turn up.
The world lost an awesome man, but the universe didn't.
George is dead, we're just waiting for Pesci to send him back.
@mancamiatipoola I've seen a clip somewhere where Carlin mentioned Bill hicks' talent.
Like elvis? Dunno why u got so many thumbs up...
Carlin CHOSE Gold to interview him.
WAS, technically, but, yes, I concur.
Yeah, he's burrowed up with Michael Jackson and Elvis in Psy's basement.
then you just wont get it. unless you open your eyes to what is right in front of you. oh and then acknowledge it. lol
@TheUSBcable
How can you say that?
It's 1 thing not to like somebody, but it is yet another thing stating that you are GLAD that someone is dead...
It's pretty bad of you as a human...
Because of viewers like me? You're welcome!
wow
lol. nice. :) i see what you did there.
I love his takes on God and Religion. Funny stuff whether you belive in God or not.
There's probably a few reasons for that none of which are slightly obvious
@cheechanchux
Daniel Tosh along with Carlin, Hicks and Prior?? Please never think for yourself again.
☺ ゞ ☮

Feynman was way cooler than Einstein.
@ScotlandMaleGlasgow Wanda Sykes is pretty funny.

Carlin enjoyed himself in the company of truck-drivers.
@cheechanchux what about sam kinison???
Carlin's a dead stooge.
never found his act funny
he never made a joke but only spoke truth

The only thing wrong with Christ are his followers and especially the self proclaimed representatives of his
