The prison system

Bill Hicks, George Carlin etc
Books that influenced him
Conspiracies/New World Order
Even though the world is fucked, I take comfort from listening to Doug Stanhope talk about how it is fucked.
HipHop Anonymous Will burn together.
Most real and down to earth person ever
@Marque Markofthebeast i'm sure you tell your kids the same
IMHO him, Hicks, Carlin and Bruce got mostly one thing on common: they are so direct that they are on the direct border to offend most people, and that was and is needed.
dailydols : Very, very true!
This man, among many other comics have changed my life and I know it to be for the better. Thank you to Doug and all his comedic allies.
Stanhope IS right.
Well they are burying miles of plastic, mostly water bottles.
Great tribute to Hitch.
"All that the comedian has to show for his years of work and aggravation is the echo of forgotten laughter." - Fred Allen
I love DS, thanks for everything dude.
Stanhope is easily the most enlightened comic out there. I think he also said it, that if he could just communicate to audiences who were 14 years old in bars(jnstead of 21 & up), he might make more of a dent.
Stanhope for Prez. FUCK the rules of the game.
What a prophet. Love Doug. Thanks for posting.
Wow. Never thought I'd hear Stanhope mention Christopher Hitchens. Thia is great.
i'm smarter than most people I know, and that terrorizes the fuck out of me... gotta remember that quote..
Stanhope likes Howard Bloom
My mind is blown
I admire them both. Nobody I know seems to know who they are. Yet one considers the other an influence. That's just amazing.
I do , not surprised .
Same with Hitchens
Everyone knows Hitchens.
+Jeremy Kean Thats life. You read a book. Nobody knows anything. It's just people writing their theories, stories, jokes and then someone else is inspired by it so they create art,comedy, or whatever based on it and throw in their own thoughts if they have any.
the only thing doug has in common with hicks and pryor is that doug is just as good as a comedian as they were. period. and with the deaths of them and carlin,dangerfield, and maybe kinison.....doug is now hands down the best living comedian and for anyone that does not agree just does not get it. To put in an ez way....bill burg is the 2nd best comedian on the planet but he is such a distant second it isnt worth even bringing it up, that is how fine doug stanhope is
k thats just your opinion though. The truth is different for different people.
ck lewis is also in there
I would say that Stewart Lee, Frankie Boyle, Billy Connolly, and Louis CK would give Doug a run for his money. My top 3 living are Lee, Boyle, and Stanhope (in no order).
~Burr, not Burg.
His take on being compared to other comedians is so true.
Thank fuck, a good interview with Doug, though it coming from Finland is no surprise, you fuckers know how to do things well!
Haha. I've been listening to him since I was 13. 16 now... I could listen to him over and over again. Not enough specials to fill the day.
Big thanks alhough it's been a while since that great show. One of the best Stanhope interviews. Deeper stuff, not that basic shit "what inspires you", "how did you start". Big up and thanks again!
I could listen to Doug's repacked material all day.
Its "Sunglasses" by "Guessmen" from their album "From the bins".
is the long version of this interview out there somewhere?
Doug knows his shit, and can deliver those jokes over and over with such good drunk delivery. Much love Stanhope!!!!!!!
Doug Stanhope clips such as this are my new “toilet book” lol
Christopher Hitchens: "If I could be as bright as that guy AND drunk all the time?!?"
Hell yeah ^_^
it feels strange to see him move his hands without holding a cigarette
@samisacool1 - Well I've only been around 40 years. And as a kid, a man could go door to door selling vacuums and such, while owning a car and a house, raising a family of four, and having a stay at home wife. And still retire after 20 or so years. Now ----- I should be retired, but am not a day closer than the day I graduated high school. No wife, no kids, no house, and still barely making it. And I'm better off than most people I know. And we're still not at the bottom of this hill.
best stanhope interview on youtube
Checkout 'The Criminal History of Mankind' by Colin Wilson.
Fuck, I had this idea to interview Doug when he came to Amsterdam, and I pussied out. I feel like an idiot now.
what is the song that plays at the end?
not hating but i wish you had played the conversation and questions being asked unedited instead of the black screen with the text, only reason is im trying to draw and work while listening and i have to keep rewinding and looking for the question. At 12:00 the interviewer was about to speak and i really wanted to hear what he had to say even tho im here for stanhope. All in all awesome interview tho
it might be a shame that Stanhope is so jaded he refused to have a child for his own personal life but in the big picture is means nothing. kind of like what he says about recycling, his not having a child in the big picture "environmentally" means nothing, personally it may be tragic for him, or not
This is an awesome interview. Showing this to my friends :P
I have never heard Rogan do the "there are no grownups" bit, but I have heard Carolla do it numerous times.
Anyone know the name of the song at the end?
thank you so much!
Stanhope is underground Hitchens
Thanks for this!!!!!!
Stanhope, Carlin, Hicks, Pryor, All have a number of things in common. Truth, Conviction, Frustration. Angst. Philosophy. Drugs. Alcohol. Logic. Smarts. Wit. Storytelling. Fluency. Truth. Truth. Truth.
One is to stir the drink, its not hollow. The other is a straw.
Whats the name of the song they put at the end??!!!
I really like Doug Stanhope and I agree with almost everything he says. But please do recycle. At least for the sake of those who don't believe humanity is doomed.
lol?
Residential and municipal waste is like 1% of all waste and pollution. The main culprits are industry, gov and military. Every single man and woman on earth could recycle 100% of their trash and there would still be 99% of it being pumped into the environment every single fucking day. Recycled tote bags and flip flops are not going to make one bit of difference.
Bacteria adapt that's why bacteria still exists.
Raw unfiltered comedy.
Kyllä. :)
Good interview.
I love this dude .. great interview
the only comic that matters Doug Stanhope!!!!!!!!!
Stanhope = Genius
Anybody know the name of the song at the end?
the almighty google can't find that song or band. :(
@ellk420 your so right i felt the need to tell you so
i agree pretty much with everything he says
faith in humanity growing stronger
@samisacool1 - The world being doomed part. Better days behind than to come. Imagine all the 60+'s of the future as homeless people, and you're probably optimistic if that's your worst contemplation.
what's the name of the book ? :D
@MrKinloch Haha the Sarah Palin bit on youtube is a prime example! XD Hilarious!
21 year old Stanhope fan. Fuck yeah, young Stanhope fans will save this world!... or destroy it in a fiery blaze. One of the two. Depends how much you piss us off.
@ellk420 You know Joe Rogan's Devolution Of Stupid People bit? It's brilliant.
thats insane man. cheers to free-thinking
nice one
@ellk420 Just make sure your kids absorb his wisdom!
Internet is fucking awesome
@BillKiernan
He always thought he was shitnuts, but Doug is a friend of Alex.
I depends some people in 3rd world countries are already "paying" only 500 years ago we lived like shit and we were "paying" its subjective it doesn't mean we wont be happy, but this conversation is extremely complicated. But the fat cats are scared because we might steal their resources. And it depends how hard the shit hits the fan our paradigm might shift and we might become savage.
In the grand spectrum of the universe... we really aren't anymore relevant than bacteria.
15 year old fan here.
now you're 21
Grab a beer
Greatest comic ever
Dough in finland, mitä vittua?
rip hitchens
So much more than a raging alcoholic.
8:27
@ellk420 lots of smart people have kids :)
Damn Stanhope is more European than American!
?
@ellk420 Oh God... world full of mini-Doug's... hide your Jager.
