Saw him about a year and half ago doing a show in Vancouver (this was at the tail end of covid, so security was VERY tight around this ole guy). I had VIP "meet and greet" tix for which I dressed up as the dead blue parrot. The shows managers implicitly stated, we could greet him, but absolutely NO contact, stay a safe distance away and under no circumstances were there to be any autographs. I made sure I was at the end of the line, so I would at least get a few more words with him. He saw me coming, bursted out laughing, took some selfies with me and autographed my parrot costume. He was so incredibly generous with his time and was truly so genuine. A memory to last a life time. Thanks for this, brought back some great memories. Such a treasure.
John Cleese at 84 has now become a world treasure. Not just a Great Britain genius and comedian, but a precious talent for the whole world. I live in Queensland Australia and my Grandfathers twin sister went to 107 years old. My blessing to John is that he should live much longer, even to an age way over 100. We need him, and his world 🌍 influence. Her blessing at 107 was to tell all who would listen, was to stay in loving mode, and care, and interest in everyone around them. Bless you John in ways even you may not have experienced yet. God Bless
@@williamoverton7775 that makes sense. People often ask me about my 96 yr old grandmother and her longevity secrets. Well, as far as I can remember, she’s always been really happy and laughs a lot. She doesn’t need a lot of greens or salads, she was never on any diet, she will eat donuts and McDonald’s. Has a glass of wine with dinner every single night still gets almost every Jeopardy, and does the New York Times crossword puzzle… Even the Sunday hard one! so I would have to say that the secret to her longevity was social connection and laughing a lot. Because it certainly wasn’t diet and exercise lol.
John Cleese is one of my favorite comedians and always will be. I could watch any episode of Fawlty Towers or any Monty Python movie at any time and always laugh. And a great gentleman and intellect I will always remember.
@@lagreen2122Absolutely, not true. There are legions of intelligent, hard-working brainiacs who get Dementia. They never stopped using their brains, but their brains stopped working for them. My mother is an example.
As an early 40's guy, it's inspiring to think I could live my entire lifetime over again, and potentially still be as with-it and mentally on point as John Cleese.
We are inherently corrupt, therefore a well intended system is made rotten. It is because people are not inherently good.Goodness is either taught or greed is taught
Great to see him on your show. I met him once in the DR where we went for our honeymoon 20+ years ago. We were in the airport waiting to go home (NYC) and I looked over and there he was sitting with a woman. I went over and asked her (his wife) if that was John Cleese. She said, no, that's his brother. So I said, well will you have his brother tell his brother how much joy he has brought to me and all of us over the years. She said she would. That was it. He didn't say a word. lol
This episode could literally go on for days, and I would still think it was too short. Cleese is an Icon. Just as important - he’s an Icon that can communicate with the rest of us on our level… an Extremely Rare thing indeed. He spoke about people being on a higher level… he IS one of them. I could listen to these two talk for days (two hours just went by, and I barely even noticed).
They are like old familiar friends. I had some really funny school chums. John and Bill are waaaaay funnier. My bestie and I would watch late night TV and she had booze, a pool cable and a Nintendo....gone to heaven
I learned to toast someone by touching glasses and looking them in the eye while you take a sip and raise your glass to them before you put the glass down from my father. Have never forgotten that. John is a pure delight and matched bill in conversation and for over 2 hours.
Man, John Cleese is still alive. What a legend! Though I haven't seen much of him, what I saw put him right up there with the best comedic actors of all time. Plus, he wrote or co-wrote what he acted, which makes him double the genius of comedy. Thank you for this video!
I loved this so much. I had a smile on my face for the entire interview. It was like having your favorite uncle come to visit after not seeing him for many years. Bravo Bill. Stellar guest sir.
This is one of my (if not 'the') favorite episodes of Club Random...John Cleese is super wise & hilarious and he even brings out some of these traits in Bill Maher, at times 😆
Crying 😢.. hard to see somebody that's entertained us age out and talk about not having income to support himself. Beautiful man with a wonderful mind. What an amazing interview!!
Brilliance!!! Possibly the best episode yet. I listen to readings of Seneca regularly and agree with John whole heartedly. One of the few I will watch twice without skipping any parts. Huzzah!!!
Huge fan of both these guys for many years. I was fortunate enough to see John Cleese in his Q&A one man show last year in Phoenix. Awesome show and something I’ll never forget. Ni! Ni!
'Right!! I have laid it on the line for you time and time again, now I'm going to give you a damn good thrashing!' Camera sits on the empty car for a few seconds, everyone wondering what's going to happen. The eruption of laughter when he runs back with that tree branch is one of the most iconic scenes in comedy history. I can still hear dad saying the dialogue along with Basil then roaring with laughter. That and the fire drill scene are just a joy. I had a pain in my back from laughing as a kid when Basil is losing his mind with the guests who are insisting that the alarm sounds are all the same. The phone rings, and he roars something incoherent into it, literally hopping with rage, and slams it down. 😂
Fantastic scene from a fantastic show. Years ago the toy company Corgi made a die-cast version of the car and a small Basil figure holding a tree branch 😃
the duck - episode i think two of my favourite john cleese bits is in monty python, the restaurant sketch and him playing the cook who rants against guests complaining about dirty cutlery , and of course the super famous parrot sketch
@@Servagio When he lifts the lid and there is some sort of dessert in it, and his utter disbelief that this was happening to him, and he looks for the duck inside the dessert. Genius 🤣
John Cleese, thank you, thank you, thank you. Thank goodness you were around during my teen years and beyond, your movies and humor were everything and still are. There are bits of your art that will be with me for the rest of my life and possibly beyond. You still bless us with your bravery and wit and wisdom. Can't recall which album or book it was but you added a review and it was "I laughed until I stopped". Will never forget it and chuckle every time I read a review of anything. Thank you Sir!
Monty Python and the Holy Grail saved my life. True story. I was in a mental hospital, because I had let life become hideous, and, you know. I had a day pass, and I used it to go to that movie. Brave Sir Robin, lovely filth, "I'm not dead yet", the killer bunny... a turning point! I left the theater recognizing that I could see my world THAT way! And I have, ever since. Thank you, John! You rescued me!
Now THIS is a big 'get' for the podcast. One of the great nights I've had was seeing John and Eric Idle live in Vegas...two of the greatest icons in modern comedy. Know what I mean, nudge nudge?
Sir John Clesse, One of the greats. .. If not the Great. .. Many thanks for sharing with the world your (M. Phython) illustrious career. .. Cheers, Vail, Colorado P.S., Classic how "they meet" husband & wife 15 years ago.
I absolutely can't believe it!!! A dream come true!! Since that podcast started I kept writing in the comments that I want John Cleese as a guest and now it happened!!!!
@Son3002 you were a maximum of 29 minutes in at this point unless you listen at 2x speed which would mean you wouldn't actually know how much someone interuppted
Most any other youtube video that was 2 1/2 hrs long, I wouldn’t even click on…but I didn’t hesitate to click on this one. Two great comedians & thinkers riffing with each other just flew by.
@Regantdarcy I personally thought the first hour and 15 minutes was not very interesting, but the second half was riveting. I enjoy hearing political views and observations from people from across the pond, because many countries seem to be struggling with extremists who have infiltrated society and politics. Many of them seem to be on a mission to wreck things and burn it all to the ground. So much damage can occur in a short period of time while it takes many more years to restore equilibrium and rebuild what was lost in the wake of all the chaos and destruction.
Loved this. One quick thing towards the end, the epitaph gag George Kaufman wrote was actually: “Epitaph for a dead waiter - God finally caught his eye.” JC - what a legend! And Cleese is pretty good too!
Thank you so much Bill for all you do and special thanks for inviting John to Club Random, Saturday morning (in Athens, Greece) is the best day of the week for me watching your Real Time with Bill Maher.
I have it on DVD. You couldn't get away with half the things going on in Fawlty Towers these days. FYI - just true, I'm not judging. This interview with Bill/John is priceless. Thank you!
I agree with John Cleese about how people change, and as we change sometimes the changes can drive people into opposite directions. But communication is the ultimate gift to one another. Not power, but real communication. I cannot remember being so interested in really getting to know people. Openess leads to acceptance, not fighting. At least for some. John Cleese is a wnderful person. Thank you Bill. A great open interview. Carolyn from Canada❤

We are his adoring fans
We'll NEVER tire of his delightful insight..classic Cleese
John Cleese is so based and won't follow dumb isolation rules
is anyone ever gonna point out the fact that these guys knees are at their chests?
Seems like something they should have stated explicitly.
Awesome move!!!
It's helpful that John Cleese keeps Bill more focused on the subject, and can return Bill to the point of the conversation.
Bill interviewing this brilliant man is like Nick Swardson interviewing George Carlin.
And keeping Bill on point when he’s drinking is about impossible.
Bill’s drinking faster, plus he’s physically smaller. Therefore tipsy quicker.
Omg...yesssssss. the dyslexic in me wants to roast him
No one cares about your analysis of “Bill”
The Legendary John Cleese will turn 85 years old this year...
And he's still as sharp as he ever was. 💙
Inspiring
@@michellemonet4358 Well said Bill remind Cleese he was from German ancestry and did not suffer the Romans occupation we Celts did.
This is a dead parrot!!
But not Biden some how I assume.
IDK about sharp. He's smart, but early on, he mumbled incoherently before he gained composure.
This conversation is a pure delight. Thank you for making it happen, Bill & John!

Love this conversation! The sharpest, sharpest wits - with warmth, philosophy, poking around, tequila, beautiful.

John Cleese is a very good listener.
Hell yes he is. He is an unselfish celebrity who just happens to be brilliantly funny and genuinely interesting. I love it.
I think all professional comedians have to be good listeners.
One's brain working the way John's brain works at the age of 84 is something that I would consider a superpower.
People who use their brain all the time never lose a bit of their brain.
It's all you could ever ask for really. It's enviable.
Twenty somethings assume eighty year olds are like a hundred year olds. Many many bright ones lol

Use it or lose it. Getting old doesn’t mean you’ll become senile
the purest form of laughter I've had in months. John Cleese is a true legend. thank you
You can always put on Fawlty towers and wallo in nostalgia laughing is best medicine John Cleese!
What an utter Treat this is, Thanks Bill!
That’s one of the most magnificent recorded conversations I have been privileged to witness. Thank you, Bill and John.
As an early 40's guy, it's inspiring to think I could live my entire lifetime over again, and potentially still be as with-it and mentally on point as John Cleese.
You must have HIGH expectations 😂
He's definitely starting to mentally decline
@@BigSplenda1885lol I think he’s just had a few.

Great to see him on your show. I met him once in the DR where we went for our honeymoon 20+ years ago. We were in the airport waiting to go home (NYC) and I looked over and there he was sitting with a woman. I went over and asked her (his wife) if that was John Cleese. She said, no, that's his brother. So I said, well will you have his brother tell his brother how much joy he has brought to me and all of us over the years. She said she would. That was it.

Awesome story
Why didn't you address him directly? He's not a monkey that you needed to speak to his handler.
You went inside of a Doctor with the man!? You took your wife inside of a doctor for honeymoon?! Punctuation ❣️
This episode could literally go on for days, and I would still think it was too short. Cleese is an Icon. Just as important - he’s an Icon that can communicate with the rest of us on our level… an Extremely Rare thing indeed. He spoke about people being on a higher level… he IS one of them.

I'm Brian and so is my partner!😅a comedic great in every way
They are like old familiar friends. I had some really funny school chums. John and Bill are waaaaay funnier. My bestie and I would watch late night TV and she had booze, a pool cable and a Nintendo....gone to heaven
Thank you bill for your efforts to not interrupt this gentleman as I truly enjoyed this one.
Bill was shockingly well behaved I have to say .. made it all more watchable
I learned to toast someone by touching glasses and looking them in the eye while you take a sip and raise your glass to them before you put the glass down from my father. Have never forgotten that. John is a pure delight and matched bill in conversation and for over 2 hours.
Yes me too, well from a Spanish friend long time ago. Never forgot.
The conversation compliment, isn't. Bill's no Johnny Carson. He should lay off the Pot & Sauce
@@cheechdubinsky6709 , at least while he's doing a podcast. A little bit goes a long way.

Plus, he wrote or co-wrote what he acted, which makes him double the genius of comedy. Thank you for this video!
I haven't watched anything yet but John Cleese is funny as hell. Monty Python made my childhood livable!
Monty Python and the fact that your father was such a generous lover
@@Akkbar21 My father was a lumberjack and he's OK!

My husband's uncle is hilarious...shoes on his hands Chaplin style...so much joking around all the time.
Physical humor is close to miming...and watch some laurel and Hardy... hilarious when he's taking his rain boots on and off😮
Simply the best CR I have seen. Thanks Bill for bringing John on and having such an amazing conversation.

To make John Cleese laugh out loud is a high honor, indeed.
Bill wants to make John laugh , because they are pals.
Idk how much Cleese you’ve watched, but he does so enjoy laughing, is a fairly easy mark for laughter.
Brilliance!!! Possibly the best episode yet. I listen to readings of Seneca regularly and agree with John whole heartedly. One of the few I will watch twice without skipping any parts. Huzzah!!!
Mr Cleese is stunningly brilliant, especially for his age. I could listen to him forever.
One of MY favourite conversation-shows with guest John "Marvellous" CLEESE. Hope to see Bill Maher with Stephen Fry as a guest.
John Cleese, #1 Elder, Wiseman, Guru, Statesman. What more can I say!
Thanks Bill
Huge fan of both these guys for many years. I was fortunate enough to see John Cleese in his Q&A one man show last year in Phoenix. Awesome show and something I’ll never forget. Ni! Ni!

Best episode of Club Random I've seen so far. John Cleese is absolutly briliant.
"Socially liberal but not 'Woke Stupid'". EXACTLY! How simply that sums it up.
Socially liberal is just as bad. The most rational ideology is being socially conservative and economically populist.
So eloquent..classic
Which is basically the Republican Party now. The only sane party of the people
I think it was -Dawkins- Sagan years ago that said “yes, open your mind, but not so much that your brain falls out.”
I Love John Cleese. I remember him from the beginning with David Frost. His mind is so interesting, so creative.
John Cleese is such a legend, I'll even endure Bill Maher just to see what he has to say!
J. Clease, Eric Idle, Monty Python, B. Maher, Real Time are brilliant, a chance to laugh about life as it is at the moment
This is one of the first programs where the commercials were funny, if not funnier than than even John Cleese. Brilliant!
Braindead take what are you saying
This was the best Club Random episode to date. Fabulous discussion. Thanks for this this thought provoking interview..
Excellent!!! May I suggest Stephen Fry for a next fantastic programme?
Thank you for that incredible 2 hours of insight, analysis of the state of things and above all, honesty.

Great interview. These interviews also reveal you as the normal dork you really are! Which is fantastic, btw. Great stuff.
Finally some entertainment (talking about the advertising!) John Cleese is a given. This is a great episode! Thanks B!

“Epitaph for a dead waiter - God finally caught his eye.”
JC - what a legend! And Cleese is pretty good too!
Loved the color blinded analogy
3/4 of the way through… This is one of the best interviews that I will watch again, and again!

Just amazing how on the same page both you guys are. Philosophy of comedy or something. Just great chemistry. 2 hours were like 20 minutes.
what a riveting conversation.. they gel so well
John Cleese is awesome forever!❤
John Cleese, and Eric Idle & Bill Maher are all brilliant!
Big fan of both these guys. This is a treat.
