This show is still criminally underrated, one of the best written, best researched, best delivered shows on any form of TV. That jeans surprise was the cherry on top though, so funny.
John usually adds a “where’s Shelley?” to his Scientology bits, which helps keep the “church’a” harsh punishments on the airwaves. This is OK. Much love, John. Much love.
As someone who actually does study plants, forages, and also studies geology and water to aid in that...who grew up eating plants off the ground, I beg John to NOT DO THAT so confidently, lmao.
Let’s not forgot that it came out later that he didn’t want to go because it was a was of his time and that he referred to those veterans as “losers”….
OR, if you DO drain swamps, and then build homes and businesses there, your privilege to then complain about hurricanes and floods has been revoked, and you will be mocked endlessly for your stupidity. If the draining was done more than a decade before your birth, you get a 50% pass on the rule, but are still stupid for complaining about consequences that we have now known would be inevitable for YEARS.

for those unaware, Beck said he wasn't a Scientologist any more like a year after this season. so if you think Beck is a Scientologist from watching this, he's not, and if you're wondering why LWN is wrong about him being one, they weren't at the time.
I remember watching this episode when it came out, so I’ve been re-watching all these past episodes watching for all the plugs he was doing, and it’s all there. He doesn’t even mention the Facebook episode ending where one girl literally says he’s plugging this stuff
“I don’t know what God has in store for us, but there’s no way in hell that we went through all of this for nothing.” I think God is giving you a sign, honey.
@@deimosvoralius2988awful. I’d never realized how horrific a seizure was until I saw someone having one. It’s terrifying to watch, I can only imagine what it’s like to experience. Have you tried CBD or cannabis, and have you tried keto diets. I know those both sound like woo woo bullshit but keto dieting was originally developed as a treatment for epilepsy. Actually entering ketosis is difficult, the VAST majoroty of keto dieters never actually reach ketosis and that’s probably a good thing, it’s an abnormal metabolic state. But for controlling seizures, a true high fat, medium protein, very low sugar diet can be nearly as effective as benzodiazepines in some patients without the sedation, addiction, withdrawal. The FDA has also approved epidiolex, a cannabis based CBD solution for treating epilepsy. But if cost or insurance is an issue, you can buy high quality broad spectrum CBD in bulk from suppliers, mix it with coconut oil in gel caps, and make your own for a fraction of the price. The hard part is finding the right supplier, they all claim to be independently lab tested but there is no oversight or regulation of dietary supplements so you never really know what you’re getting. Hope you can find something that works for you, that’s no way to live.
I’ve lived in Utah for 14 years, and while I don’t believe Mitt Romney would EVER, I did take edibles with my Mormon, Boomer, (hopefully only one time) Trump voter last year. So, yeah. I’ve never imagined things would be this weird.
At first my reaction was that he was moving to avoid coughing directly at anyone and thought "that ain't helping". Then I remembered this was before 2020.
Can’t believe this was almost 6 years ago, time flies! Also the 2018 elections marked the first of third (hopefully fourth) general elections in a row the Democrats won huge!
Actually, I did notice, and knowing some info about Scientology, I thought it was weird for this show to be plugging it. It actually made me doubt this show as a source, but I figured it had to be satire. 😅
I noticed a number of the Scientology references, but thought they were jokes & digs & such. Do we get points for noticing the mistake in the video description? John Oliver *_discusses discusses_* the culture of corruption inside Donald Trump's administration in light of his promises to “drain the swamp.”
Trump's favorite movie has gotta be Spaceballs because the only real power that he's got is the power of the Schwartz. Which is, of course the Merchandising! 😂
Our friend Danny Tarkanian finally won an election for Douglas County Commission, securing victory in the GOP primary by 17 votes. Fortunately for him, his opponent declined to pursue a recount. And he won in the general where he was uncontested. He ran again for the house and lost in 2022 bringing his career win/loss record to 1-9.
I took the exam the Scientology people took the test said a teacher status wanted to give Me I took the test paper and walked out! Have never read there book have had chance laying around,passed 😮🎉❤ got away from there walked on Hollywoods Road and tore it into small pieces Same thing did with large prints artistic teats behind a shade shadow a counter man did and I had been just poisoned waited two year about to give me copy of negatives 😂 Profit I’d wonder if china pay to make me into doll get them something lay on top of too sleep😅
“The swamp for me is the mainstream.” Trump people decided that being assholes is the sole mark of authenticity and they are more real than non assholes.
24:42 “It’s time to quit punishing innocent slots machines in order to achieve a unrealistic rainy day fund, while we agree on investing money for the future, let’s keep it real, this family is not ready to build wealth on saving accounts or 401(k)s” Speech paid for by Caesar’s Palacez
As someone who does forage, I am begging John to never do it with that much confidence, lmao. Also--I wonder if the "smarter kids" from "large butts" is because people with larger butts likely have to deal with more BS, learned how to, taught their kids, and are more likely to have had more kids they can handle parenting??? (As in, more likely to have had more kids which is what makes them widen out and body change?? I honestly don't know, lmao.) Idk, I feel like it's one of those things that alone is of course absurd, but with some strange context could somehow make sense. Might just be because people with larger butts tend to fall into demographics of people who HAVE to teach their kids better in order to stay safe. . . .
A big butt will give u smarter children. Y? The third trimester drains fat for ur butt to create the nervous system of the brain (psychology 101). Hence the rise of mental health issues. Anxiety produces passive-aggression. The rise of fashion producing an icon such as Twiggy and admires can definitely contribute to mental health issues
34:02 to be honest, i can understand if Khaled's followers didn't catch pn that this is an add, thisnis pretty typical DJ Khaled behavior. The dude is fucking hilarious to watch, whether intentionally or unintentihonally.
Lol, I do not watch this much and did not catch all of these at all. But figured they were some inside joke that I missed out on.🤣🤣 there are alot of them because I am old and do not keep up-to-date. However I am aware that scientology is the only "religion " that a failed scifi writer made up using his crap pulp work. 🤣🤣
This show is still criminally underrated, one of the best written, best researched, best delivered shows on any form of TV. That jeans surprise was the cherry on top though, so funny.
He does generally win most late night Emmys. Colbert constantly comments on it XD but still you are not wrong
“But the worry is what happens when she tries to get us to buy something stupid”
Actually laughed out loud haha
Right? I can't get enough
the scientology bits from older episodes DO catch me off guard, and i feel so justified now that i have this entire episode 😭
I always figured that was a joke.
John usually adds a “where’s Shelley?” to his Scientology bits, which helps keep the “church’a” harsh punishments on the airwaves. This is OK. Much love, John. Much love.
I was not prepared for the entire bakery
Fuck me this show deserves every award they've received and all the ones it hasn't.
100%
Still waiting for the Nobel committee to get their &"#¤ together and award LastWeekTonight all the prizes :)
“I’m gonna eat so many things off the ground” almost killed me
As someone who actually does study plants, forages, and also studies geology and water to aid in that...who grew up eating plants off the ground, I beg John to NOT DO THAT so confidently, lmao.
I just love this show so much. 🥹🤌🏻
7:43 what you gotta remember here is that John did this entire segment wearing those sick jeans
HE DID THE ENTIRE THING INCLUDING THE SCIENTOLOGY BIT
The constant zooms to his ass make me cackle 😭
The jeans bit is probably one of the best john oliver bits for me
Best bit on his best bits?
The sitting on graves bit ages like fine wine with the Arlington scandal
Oof. Well, he didn't SIT on a grave, but the double thumbs and smiling he did at Arlington got pretty close...
... next to graves unrelated to those in said photo.
Let’s not forgot that it came out later that he didn’t want to go because it was a was of his time and that he referred to those veterans as “losers”….
I feel like if he sat on one he'd use another for his fries and ketchup packets.
Remember that this is from 2018.
When you only have the concept of a plan
Swamps are an important part of our ecosystem. Do not drain swamps. A message from pedantic environmentalists.
OR, if you DO drain swamps, and then build homes and businesses there, your privilege to then complain about hurricanes and floods has been revoked, and you will be mocked endlessly for your stupidity. If the draining was done more than a decade before your birth, you get a 50% pass on the rule, but are still stupid for complaining about consequences that we have now known would be inevitable for YEARS.

More Cushing for the pushing!!! 😮 not for me 😱😂
I love you so much even if you’re pedantic.

I’m pretty bummed “Scooch The Swamp” didn’t catch on.
Melania reading Michelle Obama's books gets an extra smiley🤣
Johnny served some cake this episode.
Out of everything I expected from this episode, John with the yams was not one of them
I remember watching this episode when it came out, so I’ve been re-watching all these past episodes watching for all the plugs he was doing, and it’s all there. He doesn’t even mention the Facebook episode ending where one girl literally says he’s plugging this stuff
the scientology segment kiiillledd meeee!!!
On behalf of the cakeless, I will absolutely buy those jeans
We don't deserve John Oliver. He's so great, and I'm enjoying these full episodes because I never got to see them before.
those jeans are amazing
I think I'm binge watching this, I finally found a news outlet I can trust.
Oh hey someone on the writing staff also grew up with Flat Stanley; neat
God, watching this as a Montana voter in 2024 with Zinke on the ballot again is depressing as fuck.
❤ #newswithguts 😮
those are some intense jeans lmao
These episodes are good to watch to remind us how bad of a president Donald Trump was
“I don’t know what God has in store for us, but there’s no way in hell that we went through all of this for nothing.”
I think God is giving you a sign, honey.
After 11 years of active seizures, I can assure you there is no god.

@7:09 I was not ready for that! 😂😂😂😂

7:38 No god damned way, he's got the momma jeans! XDXDXD
Watching people cough that much on live tv HURTS living in a post 2020 world. 😭😭
At first my reaction was that he was moving to avoid coughing directly at anyone and thought "that ain't helping". Then I remembered this was before 2020.
Champaign instead of milk in cereal sounds so VILE.
The swamp is corrupt politicians, and rich people are not, so who exactly is corrupting the politicians?
❤ #newswithguts 😮
The 8th riding refers to arising in the morning.
As long as you are lucky enough to wake up in the morning, you keep pushing, no matter the setbacks.
This show is the exact amount of English-European and Euro-American...
So many try that we don't bother remembering them....
Never forget, John Oliver
Trump said he would "Drain the Swamp" Turns out the entire time he was Shrek!
Sir. If that's your _padded_ @ss, thoughts and prayers.
Tots and pears for John’s 🍑
Can’t believe this was almost 6 years ago, time flies!
Also the 2018 elections marked the first of third (hopefully fourth) general elections in a row the Democrats won huge!
About that 4th round...
Wasn't expecting the yoga pants 😂😂😂😂
B99 did the best Scientology joke with nutriboom lol
20:00 Is that Bob Murray to the left?
Good eye! I'm pretty sure it is!
❤ #newswithguts 😮
Obligatory- Eat S--T Bob!
Gods I remember this whole Scientology bit. The volcano will forever be my favorite.
Those jeans came in handy for john in 2020, but these were simpler times with those jeans and business daddy references.
Actually, I did notice, and knowing some info about Scientology, I thought it was weird for this show to be plugging it. It actually made me doubt this show as a source, but I figured it had to be satire. 😅
Yeah I just assumed "it might make you fly, just check it out" was satire 😂
I noticed the book and thought it was a reference to the segment, there’s so many layers here
It’s payday for John!!!! Pay up yalllll!!!

So did anyone else completely forget that Jeff Sessions and Steve Bannon were alive in the last 6 years?
If you get up once before you ever fall, you can fall 7 times and get up 8.
I mean if your starting point is in bed, then it makes sense.
You get up first thing in the morning, that's One.
Oh no no no, he DID drain the swamp....
And turned it into a sewer!
John looking good in those yoga pants 😂
Them trying to say Trump's cabinet wasn't politicians is beyond laughable.
John so rocks! Love this show!
Wow I don’t remember the “influencer” segment. Glad he did but we should get a follow up
"Mike Kauffman...too bad mike"
Man trump is a terrible person but godddamn is he funny haha
I did think it was weird with the TC and list of 5 vows and even Beck but I didn't piece it all together until you spelled it out
I LOVE HIS ACCENT! 😘🤭
When he said "drain the swamp" he meant "drain public resources into the murky depths of my associates pockets so they can pay for what i want"
Thankyou for the true 💙💙💙
I fucking love Jon Oliver man, I've been sending everyone i know his videos and they hit the ceiling on the padded pants bit

Did Scientology ever pay up?
hemp was future energy in 1924 but oil parons wanted war and burn wood
Brilliant!
I know it's been like 6 years, but wow John looks so young there...
holy shit, the scientology bits make sense now!
Am I the only one that thinks that Angelle guy sounds just like Bobby Boucher from Waterboy?
I forgot when John got caked tf up
GOD DAMNNNNN
OLIVER THIcccccccc
@@christinethedoll Johnny got cake, what can I say
Why does Scott Angelle sound like an evil Mitch Hedberg
how does the NFL put more effort into those animations than EA puts into Madden
You start down. Then you get up one more time than you fall down.
I took the exam the Scientology people took the test said a teacher status wanted to give
Me I took the test paper and walked out!

Where's Shelly, David?
I feel like a sentient piece of coal who ran the EPA would not support a policy of ‘let’s burn all the coal’.
Had to go back to season 1 and sure enough Dragonstone is there... huh
