George was more than a comedian. He had genius levels of perception and wit. One of a kind.
And huge fucken balls of steel
in the eye of a stupid casual american thats true....
He was awesome
😅😅😅😅
The proper term for his style is "humorist". He was a humorist. He talked about real non-fiction events and philosophies, but just made it all funny. A comedian usually just makes everything or most things up.
He did his entire bit without swearing and it still hit hard. This was a once in a lifetime philosopher.
Name someone else who could smash on c-soan 2!
Razor-sharp mind. There aren't very many like George. How he can skate through an entire monologue/show without ever momentarily losing his train of thought, or referring to memory cards is amazing.
no swearing? shitski... I better go someplace else. . my dad never cursed...27 years in the army...amazing... and I learned early on that cursing had to be done elsewhere... riding in my brother's sports car, no top... moving his stuff from his college dorm to new digs in Washington DC... raining to beat the band... and I found out I wasn't the only one doing it elsewhere...I learned some new words that day..
however... if George Carlin can do it... so can I....
no news in recent years George...RIP brother.. same shit... different day... and...more expected tomorrow... RIP George... no worries mate... no worries at all
The philosopher, definitely something many don't appreciate or grasp. One of the greates even.
He's awesome. Although I think he's wrong on certain subjects.
As an Englishman, this man’s like will never be seen again. He truely was one in several billion.
Funny how an Irishman would become one of the greatest speakers for atheism, haha.
Jimmy Dore is pretty close to him
And there continues to be a longer list ever since

Two things we will never have again in life:
George Carlin and his intelligence and pure honesty.
RIP champ 💔
That's three things, dumbass.
That's 3 things.
Both George Carlin & Robin Williams!
Also Steve Harvey Sr ❤
Jon Stewart
I'm not an American and have had never heard of George Carlin before. I don't know why he pops up today, but I am amazed what a special comedian (understatement) he is. So on point today!!! I salute you, you have spoken some true words ❤
Your ignorance amuses me... stay away from America and find hilarity and genius while your head is up your ass
Watch everything he has done and it will change your life and perspective on Humanity and the world.
well said sir. he is 'one of the best comedians who ever lived IMHO
George Carlin was not only a comedian, he was a philosopher imo. I miss him.
Well, it's your lucky day. I look upon people discovering a great artist for the first time as being blessed with a great gift.
It's like being an innocent child opening a gift on Xmas morning.
For you get to experience the pure spontaneous laughter related to this man's commentary on the absurd things humans do for the first time.
I totally miss this man. We need more truth with humor.
We've had Will Rogers, Mark Twain, etc doing this but no one, no one, can top Carlin. 😊😊
Amen
Sadly, tho we live in a post joke society
Dave Chappelle
Me too He was my favorite since the 60s! I was lucky and saw him live twice. What a great guy and person he was!!
My god. Almost 24 years later and this all still holds so true
He is a Prophetic Comedian.
Like a MF.
But is now front and centre. Faith over fear
Because it's been going on for generations. The world isn't worse, the veil has been listed.
@@an-tm3250 yes it has been "lifted."
HE DID ALL THIS FROM MEMORY. HE WAS BRILLIANT
When your convicted & sure of yourself, remembering the truth is easy. It's Liars that need a script, just like religious people on Sunday.
Actually, he made a reference to keep the script rolling, meaning the teleprompter. Yes, he knows his quips by heart, but he also had the promoter today. When he brought up the manuscript to read his poem, he still read from the promoter.
Memorizing is what all actors, comedians, concert pianists do. It's, Carlins', devotion to language usage that's impressive, he must have read twice as much as he wrote.
@@preacherno If you're patient enough for listening to and watching this through the half hour, a wideshot encompassing the audience pans out from said esteemed speaker, giving no creedence to your analysis sir. The Honorable Mr Carlin's Brain Droppings.🦉Spoken from the Heart.
All he had to do is remember the main points. The rest is stream of consciousness, spoken from the heart.
"He was here just a minute ago"
-Carlin, when asked what he wanted on his headstone.
RIP
RIP......hey, that is the word, Black Jack Ketchum, said, as he stood on the gallows, ready to be strung up (hanged, or hung as it were) '' your last words ? '' asked the hangman......'' Let 'er rip '' ! ........Black Jack stated......then KER-THUNK........and as the body fell to the ground, leaving his head in the noose. (hanging team, underestimated his body weght, and dropped him too far......oh well....
@@petersack5074 I looked that up, I think you got the wrong guy, his last words were ""Good-bye. Please dig my grave very deep. All right; hurry up." lol Unless the history changing police got to the article. It's possible
LOL, I never heard that one.
@@PlasticCogLiquid I just saw an interview when I posted that. Not official by any means!
When Carlin said...I just saw him yesterday. Well apparently it didn't help him. In fact, your seeing him may have made it worse!
20+ years later and every word is still relevant, if not prophetic.
I got to see him twice on this tour. Brilliant and timeless, very aware
I am not even from USA and I agree totally.
The more things change, the more they remain the same right? I agree with you 100%
I know, right?
Couldn’t agree more. He IS GENIUS
We need this man now more than ever.
Especially in the "trump" era, Carlin would tell it like it is...no b.s. "witch hunting"
We have many like George Carlin today (2023). You just need to open your eyes and ears, and seek them.
For President 😅
He had a way of being funny and very honest at the same time. Never be another like him.
Guess what I already did
Will never ever forget George Carlin, the ultimate no-BS man.
I would argue against Georege on his point starting around 49 minutes. "No BS" is indeed a fine art. Like a good wine, it ages, and gets better with time, as the world around stinks and rots away. No BS Truth is ironically fermented, and fitted for just such occasions.
the world still can't take that kind of energy, i try to keep it going
Agreed, if he were ever to run for President of the USA I would have voted for him, for both terms! Unfortunately folks like him don't run for President.
Not possible to forget him.He left a huge mark on humanity.Still does even 15 years after his death
I was going to like your comment but I left it at 420 likes 🤏
This man could wield the English language like a weapon. The world can truly benefit from the mind of George Carlin
Scalpel.

George Carlin and Sir Winston Churchill were the two most lethal verbal assassins of the 20th Century. Churchill gets first place for the whole saving the free World thing, but George is a very close second!
I have heard that he read the dictionary daily...he was a wordsmith.
Nick, for his fans, he is a benefit
We need this man today. Nothings changed at all.
It’s gotten worse.
He was right, we went off the cliff.
23 years ago..... Unbelievable how accurate he always was.
George Carlin was, is, and always will be, a national treasure.
They should mandate being able to recite or recall in writing the lessons from his skits as part of the curriculum for public high school graduation in the United States.
I'm not American but I think he is one of the most influential people in the world's history.
Your national treasure needs to wash that nasty ass yellowed gray hair.
fully agree 👍
I'd love to see Mr.Carlin and Biden on the same stage. Alas, George is gone. RIP our hippy drippy Weather man!
This man's command of language... not just his word choice, but also his control of inflection and rhythm is amazing.
his comedy is an art that is the most honest social comment I have ever heard
Best rapper ever
Correct. Command of LANGUAGE. I miss this gifted humanist.🌺
as a non-native speaker I learn a lot about how to use English wittily from listening to his routines although sometimes he cursed too much to my liking
Yep he’s amazing
What brilliance, no teleprompter, just flowed with coherence and insight, exposing what we normally have become numbed and dumbed down to, it's a revolutionary insight that genuinely makes him rare and brilliant.. BRAVO to your life George Carlin BRAVO.
My favorite philosopher.
THE GOAT HIMSELF. His intelligence is incomparable to other comedians
Richard Pryor was also brilliant ... not the philosopher but equally brilliant in his own way.
And Dave Chappelle

"The problem is really with the politicians, the celebrities and the lawyers. And although their level of insincerity is astonishing it's still kind of fun to hear them talk." ~ George Carlin
A fan of Carlin's since the 80's, that's one of the main reasons I dislike advertising and "news" (and avoid them both as much as possible). Their astonishing but ever-present insincerity are sickening. Dishonest is dishonorable and it seems our species is running out of dignity in too many areas.
Yes, that opened a great riff, of so many.
I believe his slamming of politics is what got him killed.They said heart failure killed him, but our governments politicians are experts at stopping hearts.
😮
To put in Georges phraseology. He was simply ahead of his time by centuries and straightforwardly a GENIUS!
Soak it up people. You're never ever going to see such intelligence and such wit and the way life is described, as the way George Carlin did it.
I imagine there might be people reading this in the year 2050, and they have no idea who and how great this man was. All you have is these videos.
Thank God for that. Because there's never going to be another Carlin. Absolutely amazing
George Carlin died far too young. Yes, he was 71, but damn it, he deserved to be at least a 100.
70's is too young to die in my book...heck even the 80's.
Crashbanksbuysilver If you die in your 80's, I'm sympathetic, but I don't complain. You lived a full life.
In your in 90's, I grab popcorn. "Get outta here. This my house! This is my nursing home! That's my scented toilet paper."
Kumquatodor Don't agree, we should always be living over 100.
Nah, sickness is far too easy at that age, could've gone and been remembered much worse. Think Hitchens.
105
The world needs at least one hour of Carlin per day if we ever hope to understand humanity.
I get it
AMEN!!
david icke
Understanding humanity is knowing it will and should end one day like he said we’ve had our time let some other species evolve and have a go of it.
@@forrestgump105 Let me run some errands first
I think I watch this once a year or so. It had tears this time. Like everyone else, I truly miss George Carlin!
The sheer brilliance of this man's oratory delivery is absolutely unmatched ...He was truly way ahead of his time...A Piercing intellect with an even sharper tongue.
Oratory? George would’ve loved using that word.
Wish he was here today to speak on all the crazy shit going on today
He was not a comedian he just was a very sharp observer, we miss you more than ever
George Carlin was one of the funniest people who ever lived. Also.
@@LanceBakerActor he's definitely a comedian... just a brilliant one.
The Conductor.
So... A comedian?
Imagine the material he would have these days
Pure honesty is hard to come by. George was brutally honest at all times. I cried the day he left us & still miss him dearly.
+Joe Klatt You look like someone who would have loved Patrice O'Neil. He was also about being honest and a rhetoric giant, especially when it came to censorship, hypocritical feminism, and other stuff. He, unfortunately, is also gone, but man he was funny and real. I'm glad i got to see both before they went and if you haven't yet, I hope you look into him
Carlin is the GOAT. Nobody was that funny over so many decades. Still makes me laugh
@@davequinn9744 He always framed his honesty with humor. He was introduced as a comedian, but I have always thought of him as a humorist, especially when he began commenting on the undesirable state of the nation in such a way that people could still laugh.
tumbs up for Jerry.
Jerry Christmas!
"Fat people are not big bones, dinosaures are big boned".
Every one applauding und laughing, agrees with him and understands the truth in his words. Every one else is just stung by his words ❤
Best comedian I’ve ever heard in my life.
Absolutely!❤
Only Carlin could so gracefully stroll into the hornets nest, sting them with their own stingers, then casually walk out unharmed.
Indeed~Carlin a Pure Gem covered in a Toxic Waste Event~Meets the Zero Point of Knowing~by such Ebbs & Flows with actionable wordsmith untouched is Pure Essence~ May we to be as Pure.......
Facts he was the real deal always dropping gems keeping it real and being funny he was cut from a different cloth r I p
I love George and everyone in the room is laughing because its true. They don't say it in a way that a direct answer is given but implying it, especially when they fuck up
@@chrisp7110 facts he was the real deal unfortunately these celebrities today just dumb the masses down and they don't have no back bone I only have respect for the real ones and George told the damn truth and he made it funny but he meant it
Trump can do it too. its just that Carlin talks the truth and trump spews shit. How does anyone put up with Trump without trying to kill him?
Half the time he wasn't being a comedian or putting up an act, he was just speaking his mind
Realizing that if we do not change course its the either the end of the world at our hands when they figure this out or us, lets honor him by following his lead and admitting what are fore fathers have done to the world since the assassination of Abraham and then it was doubled down with the assassination of JKF, the global financial cartels that have been at it for thousands of years, since Christ, the only business of the world is and has always been War
forgive the misspelling, I was not looking at the keyboard and I type fast
@@erx88 then whatever your mistake there is editing :)
I think that's why he kind of flinches when his profession is distilled to "comedian" by the person introducing him.
In his later career, he pretty much went fulltime social critic. I loved it.
There are people in this world who see things quite differently from others. They are generally none conformist. Such a one was George Carlin. His brand of comedy is sorely missed. RIP.
A world without George Carlin sucks.
Shows a formal education means nothing. He's intelligent, eloquent and sharp.
Formal education CAN mean nothing ... it is not automatically so, although in these days it is mostly a bunch of indoctrination and narrow-mindedness.
"Formal" education may mean nothing but REAL education is important and vital. But remember formal education is not so much about math and reading as it is about socialization, building your emotional IQ.
A formal education does means something, It means you were educated according to certain standards. What you do with that education though is what matters and yes you can do nothing with it. Also & what I believe you mean is, formal education is not the end all of education. One can become educated in many ways and not just formally. In addition, just because one is formally educated does not mean they are intelligent.
Education is a lifelong effort Don't stop educating yourself
@@johnthompson9513 I'm a teacher but have met many highly intelligent people who didn't finish school. I would say, don't let that stop you from being successful.
What a legend! We need a George Carlin in every generation.
Support Jon Stewart

It's hard to believe, Mr. Carlin is gone. I am so thankful for his insight into so many issues. Thank God, most of his thoughts have been recorded.
He was here just a minute ago...
@heatherjones9773 Thank George!
Watching him grow as a man, not just as a comic, has been amazing. His unscripted, non-performing wisdom in the q&a was touching.🙏
“Somewhat out of character for a politician to go out of his way to point out the low level of American intelligence when indeed, his very job depends on it” perfectly said
Brilliant

He was an extremely intelligent and brilliant man. And the most honest individual in the world. I wish he was still with us.
This is all done without a script off the top of his head
We need George Carlin so much right now
Agreed. But I guarantee his shows would be picketted by the current SJWs and feminazis.
@@CanadianMGTOW Who were you watching? He was way more liberal than he was conservative.
#metoo and Trump zombies would have crushed him
Why don't you become the next George Carlin instead? This is for everyone who thinks as you do, which is a lot of people.
He would have been exceedingly happy to see a small group of Americans come around and do things outside the box and due to critical thinking.
Thanks!
@@MLBlue30 He was a liberal but he would not be agreeing with SJW & Feminazis on a lot of stuff. And they would not agree with him.
George Carlin's speech to the National Press Club took place in 1999 and was posted here on RUclips in 2013. Yet remarkably, it continues to draw additional comments and thumbs-up after all these years! Only you could pull this off George.
It’s still relevant.
July 2020 Covid 19 Trump B* L*** M ... relevant still
@RogerWilco99 Nah ... not so much Trump, because Trump is "unfiltered" and does not use the phrases which Carlin criticises here. You can make fun of Trump for other things ... but when it comes to speech he is the most truthful politician for decades ... and that is why they hate him, because he says what many people are thinking.
@@Muck006 , TRUTHFUL!? Trumplethinskin? He was and is the biggest f-n liar in American history by far!
If you actually believed his BS, I have some magic beans and maybe even a couple bridges to sell you.
@@Muck006 No we despise him because he is completely evil and the poster child for corruption and greed.
A National treasure
We need to put this out in every media EVERY DAY! It us as relevant today as it was in the past.
He is timeless. I thought I'd seen everything from Carlin, but never saw this. This should definitely be in a compilation of his work on DVD. He was so much more intelligent than everyone in the room. I would have loved to see someone say George wasn't qualified for a job because he wasn't a college graduate. That man could've run the nation better than any politician.
On dvd?
Politics and news is timeless. Same stuff, different day…
Most people could run the country better than any politician. Most politicians are self-serving rich assholes.
@@Trindify many agree, therefore they voted for trump. As we saw, the way trump ran the country was much more beneficial then politicians run it. Everyone was much better off with trump at the helm, whether you love him or hate him.
@@jesse_- Oh, you mean the guy that instigated a trade war with another global superpower and instituted trade tariffs on that superpower, both of which are acts that directly led to the Great Depression and then worsened it? You mean that guy? The guy who did that? Who almost caused a sequel to the Great Depression? You mean that he's good at running the country?
He walked into the Den of Wolves and Lions and He still came out unharmed. Infact he tamed them. What a GOAT
A true Legend 🙌🏼 we miss you George
if he only influenced or even got one person in that room to question what they are doing, then it was all worth it. thank you mr.carlin
I am impressed how deeply he studied his own jokes, like he is saying exactly the same on his own gigs. I am stand-up comedian myself, he is I think the best comedian I have ever seen.
What is your name so I can check out your act?
How about Ricky Gervais? He also speaks (ridicules) about topics such as politics and religion. Worth checking indeed
You ain't funny worth a damn
@@gigantopithecushominoidea8779 And you are not a civilised man. What a rude jerk!
I appreciate the hell out of him. Not always the funniest with every word but sophisticated and incredibly thoughtful.
Just incredible how this man honors his audience with preparation. How memorable this must have been for the audience. Quite an iconic talent that we won't see again.
Dosent mean we shouldnt try to be brilliant i think george would want his students to be successors.
Holy crap this gold thanks for posting this gem. George is the only person on the news feed when they said passed away and I remember getting up from the sofa at 3am morning news yelling SON of a BITCH and other expletives I was amazed I didn’t wake up my neighbors I was so mad damn I miss him.
There will never be another observer and artistic deliverer of human nature like him for a long long time.
He cleaned up his act and still killed it. Carlin is king, always.
I just watched this speech for the first time in 2022, and it made me laugh as much as anything he did. Gotta love the guy.
My brother down in San Antonio attended an event in a bar. The entertainer offered a free beer to whoever could recite the Seven Words. My brother's hand shot up, and he recited them perfectly, as if it ere the Lord's Prayer or the Pledge to the Flag. He got applause and his beer. A friend at his table said to him "Potty mouth!"
This man was a national treasure. One of the only celebrity deaths that moved me to tears.

One of the greatest clips ever. In front of a mostly hostile audience, Carlin educates anyone who will listen. This should be required viewing for every high school senior. Over, and over, and over.

I think kids would be just as dumbfounded over most of these lines as they would be over Shakespeare, except that Carlin lived in our time, scary thought....

norm macdonald is the same, its brutal
...yes , but they probably wouldn't get it...sad.
I never knew this existed it's truly amazing George Carlin will always be truthful. No matter how much time passes
Loved him from the beginning!! Comedians are often great abstract thinkers and educators!

Aug 25, 21 ~ Imagine No father, a working mom, a brother and a 9th grade education speaking for a solid hr about our failed species amongst all those college grads as the self taught literary genius he really was! In my opinion he was a real "What a Guy".

Same, although it's depressing to see there has not been any significant positive change in the US his entire career.

@@JOE-xz4kx Carlin knew about cheating in politics, which is why he always said that voting gave the ILLUSION of having a choice, and railed against nonsense like the Electoral College and Gerrymandering. Gerrymandering is so blatant and was designed SPECIFICALLY to cheat in elections.
@@wallacewallaby5782 I was in my 20's and still have much of his vinyl from the days. I listened for the comedic value then and wasn't paying attention to the politics.
@JOE America was bought and paid for long ago. Don't accuse one side of cheating when you can't even see the other side is cheating also.
R- or D- are the same side of the coin.
He's not only funny but educating.
George Carlin really displays his understanding of the English language in this video. It’s so fun to watch him show off the verbal gymnastics that we as Americans use to deceive, generalize or provoke one another. A display of true intelligence. Personally I don’t think anyone else, not even a professor in this confusing and bizarre mutt of a language could address these issues with such charisma and sincerity. Shit I suck at speaking and understand this language and I’m a native speaker from the US! I don’t know I’m just kind of going off in this comment section for no reason other than the fact that I just want to express my appreciation for this iconic comedian. I also don’t know how to end off this long winded appreciation post other than, if you read all this bullshit, thank you for spending a minute or two (or five) reading my comment. Sorry for my lack of proper punctuation and grammar. Most importantly, if you haven’t already, take a bit more of you free time watching more of George Carlin the late great comedian that really embodies what being human is all about, regardless on your views on politics, religion, race, intelligence, class or maturity. He tells you what he sees how he sees it. That seems to be a rarity in civilization, even going back to the Roman Empire. I’m now just spiraling again so I’ll shut up but feel free to comment on this and we can start a discussion appreciating this human anomaly, in the sense of being able to go through hardships and comeback from them twice as strong and teach his audience how foolish language is and to become more accepting of each other to work against the real evils of society. Again sorry for the small essay but thank you for reading. Hope you have a great day, morning, afternoon, evening or night.
This guy saw it, and spoke it! What a legend !🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
A truly phenomenal man that makes you think.his delivery on the way we twist words to make things softer,as not to be offensive is on point. Love this guy. RIP..
Saw George Carlin in the early 70's at the college I was attending. He helped me to transform my views. This was a wonderful tribute to a very intelligent man.
what a treat to the ear by hearing George Carlin! Miss Him! RIP!
serving up truth with humor. RIP George
One of our most brilliant Americans speaking truth to the masses.
@Corneilious38 Not to demean, but I know plenty of closed minded ignorant people from Canadia who fall for our far right propaganda. It is certainly a smaller percentage though, cmpared to us, who are thoroughly indoctrinated from cradle to grave in nearly every aspect of daily life to submit to a system of imbalance, injustice, aristocracy, and division.
*"You know why they call it the American Dream? Because you have to be asleep to believe it."* ~Carlin
He was full of shit. Great Comedian when he wanted to be... but mostly was an asshole.
@@Han-Solo459 stop your whining and go take a bath.
Dick Gregory did too
The greatest philosopher of modern times, disguised as a comedian.
What a thinker that guy was.
This guy is my hero. You can tell he's a bit nervous here but still great as always. Interesting to hear his first version of "Modern Man" here.
True. He was going so fast. I couldn't keep up.
Yeah, it's cool to see his "Modern Man" bit evolve from here to his special...but do you know what that means? It means he was doing new and UNTESTED MATERIAL (Which seems obvious due the the couple of flubs and reading from his notes) in front of the White House press club...that's some brass balls, man...dude didn't give a fuck...he'd tell it as he saw it, not an ounce of BS in him...
I was honored to see him 8 times in concert. When men try to excuse their language around me I’m like “don’t fucking worry about it. I grew up listening to George Carlin.” I fucking miss that man!
Holy Moly thank you George and the person who uploaded this video. That poem at the end. A true bard. Rest well xx
GC was many things, but mostly an artist who "painted" with language to help you see your own thoughts and ideas. Like a composer, sculptor or poet he conveyed an "image" to the listener of his observations for you to contemplate and evaluate. Truly art!
NM
Very well said 🌹🌈
YES !
Every once in a while need a "tune up" ......and refuge.........Carlin provides that and still blows me away
props on his ability to recite by heart. No politician can hold a candle to him amungst other aspects.
"An initiative is an idea that is not going anywhere!" Brilliant speech!!!
The worst part of this video is now realizing EVERYTHING he says about a Politician has been repeated this year by ALMOST every politician on TV...... especially when scandals break
People are fuckin' DUMB. ---George Carlin.
He was ahead of his time and saw thru the 'smokescreen' of PC early on.
"PC" is mind control.
@trevor cauler It is partly why Trump won but if you think he's in your camp you're just as delusional and will feel stupid years from now. I refuse to believe you're this ignorant.
The idiots who fell for both Iraq wars are dumb. You all love being lied to.
@Robert Nicholls he didnt ever say which "camp" he's in... ?and if youwatched just five minutes of what Carlin just said, i hope you wouldn't be so ignorant to still write this comment, that contains no information.
Don't you mean the best part?
You know George didn't want that intro,, he didn't Want IT,, HE DIDN'T NEED IT!! RIP George Carlin! We miss you!
The great thing about George Carlin is that I honestly could not tell if he was giving a serious speech or a genuine comic routine.
He roasted them, with a smile, and they loved it.
This is not a roast. He was invited to speak to his fellow word equilibrists... He roasted everything but the National Press Club!
They smile as if he's talking about someone else.
Their all drifters as napoleon hills book outwitting the devil would say 98% of everyone is...
I mean he could have done worst to them
Not that uncommon, until recently. The White House Correspondents' Dinner used to have comedians making fun of everyone in attendance including politicians and the press, until snowflakes took offense and banned comedians from the event.
And with his death ended the age of reason
Nah ... that ended with feminism, which is basically "communism with the McGuffins replaced", an ideology based upon an EMOTIONAL ARGUMENT which they only ever try to "prove" by selectively limiting the data they look at.
For example: "1 in 4 homeless is a woman ... we must do something about that" OR the "you can grab them by the p...." selective edit of a quote from Trump, which is missing the "and they let you do it" part, which is the REAL message of the quote, because Trump was talking about the CHOICES women make, while feminism PRETENDS he was speaking about "a hobby" of his.
and awesomeness
Dear Kirin Kappa: I agree with your sentiment, but think about how SICK our Society is when Reason must be defined by a stand up comedian rather than a Public School Teacher. If our teachers tried At ALL to teach our children about Critical Thinking, then comedians like Carlin would be superfluous, wouldn't they ??? ... jkulik919@gmail.com
@@Muck006 Dear Muck: I feel the same way. I think that the original Feminists in the 1960's would actually reject what Feminism has become. All I can ask modern day Feminists is: "When will women finally take responsibility for their own lives and stop blaming men for their own foolish decisions ??? " ... jkulik919@gmail.com
@@JosephKulik2016 This would make sense; if you used proper punctuation. If Carlin were still alive, he'd "moyduh" you.
24 years later and still counting how this truth shall remain- Be true to your thruth so your truth can be true to you...
Im happy i grew up with a man like George
All.pur experiences make us who we are
"Grow some balls and have a voice "
George Carlin.. 1996
RIP.. legend
This is gold, could easily be released. Man I miss this guy.
Who else is watching the amazing and ohh so talented comedian Carlin during this COVID lockdown? Being a boomer born in '47 I am of his time and was always blown away by his rapid fire delivery and wonderfully on target humor. Listening to this talk I am amazed at how (seemingly) easily and quickly he moves through his talk with apparently no notes, drawn completely from memory. Imagine giving a talk like this with the perfectly rehearsed ease he demonstrated. Wow!
Dwar John , Watching in May of 2022 ! Akways loved George ! Rip !
George Carlin was amazing. Such a brilliant human
An absolute genius in the art of Wordsmith
A voice from the past and still nails it.
“The level of insincerity (of the celebrities and politicians you cover) is astonishing.” I love this man.
George Was BRILLIANT !!
I'm Right With You on His AMAZING COMEDY SKILLS , Brain !!
George WILL ALWAYS BE THEE BEST COMEDIAN OF ALL TIME - PAST & PRESENT
His Memory Was Extremely REMARKABLE❗
First time seeing this in Dec 2022 and it was like he performed it today. Always the wordsmith and forever my favorite.
one of the greatest minds to benefit the rest of us. RIP sir! YOU ARE THE BEST! My world is much dimmer with out his presence!
He was nervous during this... it's not the stage he's used to.. but he still NAILED it (like there was any doubt that he would)
