A new bridge that is already falling down…lol. Seriously, look into the issues we’ve had after that tyrant built and named the new bridge for his daddy.
As was the double Pittsburgh bridge (but on the other side, part of the 95 fell down in Philly, not by the sausage sandwich place where the contractors went but rather by the Sausage Sandwich place next to where Rudy gave his presser)
@@MrMatteNWkWhat’s crazy about the Philly bridge collapse was that they had a temporary bridge built and opened in two weeks, showing that we can fix/repair infrastructure very quickly if it wasn’t for all the neglect.
@@MysteryMii We in Florida had a new bridge build in two weeks after Hurricane Ian destroyed the only bridge leading to and from Sanibel Island. It's amazing what people can do when they put their mind to it.
A suspension bridge that isn’t safe in high winds, according to a HudsonLink bus driver who was driving us across said bridge. There’s nothing to block the wind, so trucks and buses can easily be flipped in high enough wind conditions. Which is terrifying. I hate that bridge when it’s windy.

That's actually one of the better maintained bridges in America, from what I understand. Regular applications of new paint, and I believe also cable repairs.
I thought with season one everything was a big coincidence that so much was still the same. I see season two is no different. Things really don't change
John Oliver has done more to educate the Murricans than your entire school system, and al without a single mass shooting. Y'all should subsidize this show, it's what stands between you and the apocalypse.
I think the point is kind of that the rats were the mode of transport for the fleas? Flea infested rats stowed away on ships, made it to places they weren't native to, the fleas left the rats and hopped into humans, spreading the disease So in a way they did "spread" the disease, they're just not the ones who directly infected us
Actually, I’ve heard a study that said the fleas might’ve been the factors that moved it across the continent, but local spread was probably more due to lice.
It was the fleas that were on the rats that managed to transport the disease across long distances. But recent research has shown that it was most likely lice that transmitted it locally amongst populations. That is why it spread so rapidly, and was so devastating once it reached an area. Lice were everywhere, and clung to fabrics, and it was transported in that manner as well. That’s why once a household had it, even if there were no rats present, it spread without being in a pneumonic plague form.
Just a reminder, the voice of BW and Unicron Trilogy Megatron is reading these Voice Overs. Which I find hilarious as the person who voiced the Decepticon Leader is talking shit about gerbils.
He wasn't even "featured' like Edward Norton or Steve Buschemi. I don't think he was nearly as popular because Daredevil hadn't started streaming on Netflix yet so people would have only known him as Private Pyle in Full Metal Jacket.
I live in Washington State. and the dams on the Columbia river haven't had anything more than basic maintenance in 50 years. and if any one of these dams were to fail? it would be a great loss of life. and President Biden is the first and only President to do something about infrastructure.
As a Philly contractor myself his entire assessment of that particular situation was spot on .. we're definitely screwed if the next crack is next to a vegan food truck
Parks and Rec is a show about maintaining infrastructure and small town public officials fighting for a cause, and it's legit one of the best sitcoms ever.
So, were these supposed to be uploaded in no particular order, or is there a method to this madness that I'm just not seeing? That aside, really enjoying getting to see whole episodes on RUclips.
The seasons get uploaded whenever there isn’t a new episode of LWT. My guess is that they schedule all the episodes in the older seasons to upload at exactly 11pm ET when this is the case, and RUclips randomly decides what order they get uploaded in.
There's a playlist, they're in order for me, just backwards. So end of season first, first episode of season 2 last. Season 1 was fine, their youtube person probably just did the playlist wrong.
The infrastructure issue hits hard just days after the Western North Carolina dam break. Praying for those displaced, and especially the missing and dead. Is it likely this one was unavoidable? I guess, since it’s so beyond anything we have any record of ever. But it shows us the stakes.
ok, one comment on the commercial at the end of the Infrastructure main story - there's an awful lot of water behind the Hoover Dam compared to pictures we've seen in the last few years...
Idk if John Oliver is still doing corrections, but in the gerbil montage the clip used for "buying wheels for them to run on" is actually of two Degus (Octodon degus) and not gerbils.
Okay, but seriously, i could see someone making _Infrastructure_ as a disaster movie: show some real footage of politicians saying how strong some Infrastructure, like a bidge, is, and then the instigating event of the movie is something happening that it was explicitly supposed to handle, causing a collapse or a breach.
The tv program Infrastructure could be a hit. The host would be a team of retired inspecters from different parts of the country. Each team would show a different bridge and the best and worst bridge would be selected . Each week would be new additions to the list of most dangerous crossings. If during the season one of the worst ratted bridges collapes that team gets extra points. By the end of the season there will be bridges all over the country that people won't want to cross. Might even encourage governments to fix them.
So.. Are you guys dropping all the old episodes, or just the ones that haven't been addressed in the decade since they aired (which is still all of them)?
Wait?! You can have a sausage sandwich? This is new information to me. I’m interested. I mean, I don’t eat a lot of meat is probably why I missed it but that sounds yummy.
I mean this in absolutely no shaming way, but I remember watching this live, and rewatching it now has me *all the surprise pikachu emojis* not realizing how long ago this, and the last 3 episodes were. What is happening??
To pay our taxes and they can't even balance the budget how stupid are they we don't do that we go to jail for not paying our bills or have to file bankruptcy
I mean, EVERYONE cared about Jesus, he had ridiculous numbers of followers who would die for him, he had cool tricks, and the religious right wanted to crucify him. ...He and Taylor Swift had a LOT in common.
this isnt exactly true. when He died He probably only had like 15-20 actual followers. and while they said they would die for Him, Peter's denials show a lot of that was just talk and they didn't have the courage to go through with it.
The good news is the Tappan Zee Bridge has since been demolished and replaced by a new bridge. No need to worry about that spilled coffee cup.

1:16 Almost nine years later, and it happened again. RIP Alexey Navalny.
This time capsule is amazing
Remember to drink a full glass of water after swallowing the capsule.
First time seeing that rat/gerbil segment, thank you again for putting full episodes on RUclips!
And now we know it wasn't even gerbils!! It was fleas on PEOPLE
You know that this is an old episode when you hear the word “Vine” for the first time in years.
I mean it clearly states season 2
@@deimosvoralius2988just a 20 y old trying to look smart 😅
Clearly it's a two day old RUclips video. Hosted by a youthful, energetic, beaked man, with an unfortunate speech impediment.
Wat is this vine u speak of……
_-Top Putin rival dead_
_-'Russia... the future home of 45 million Ukrainians.'_
Me: *"Wow, this could have been released today!!"*
_-'Vine'_
Me: *"...I stand corrected."*
The delivery and syntax of "Except for like...lakes...I guess" makes it the single funniest line in this shows history 💀
That infrastructure movie looks great, so many high quality actors there. I'd watch it.
I want to watch it! Looks hilarious
What a Great Cast. But Seriously Look at the Francis Scott Key Bridge incident just this month; Could have been avoided!
In 2024 that movie would be a hit. Everyone is too stressed to watch chaos anymore.
It feels good to finally have an issue from an old JO episode that was actually *addressed.*
This episode's original air date was March 15, 2015. The game INFRA was released on January 15, 2016. Funny how time flows.
“…that upside down piece of candy corn wearing a wig made of used medical gauze…” ha ha ha! The description still works, too!
"On Thursday, April 25 [2024], the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) held an open meeting during which the agency's commissioners voted 3-2 to restore net neutrality rules that reclassifies Internet broadband providers as common carriers..."

Steve Buscemi also did yeoman work as the officiant when John married that lovely cabbage - possibly my all-time favorite John Oliver skit.

John Oliver's Russian accent is perfect absolutely spot on.
As a kid, I hated going over the Tappan Zee. It hold my breath and close my eyes moment.
Absolute legend! This guy never misses
That rat/gerbil skit is way too funny.

I googled that bit a few times to show friends.

Thank you for another full episode from the back catalogue from an active HBO customer. 🧡💛🧡
Good lord, you guys must've had so much fun making that "infrastructure". Next level comedy😂😂😂 thanks for the laughs!
This aged well considering the recent Baltimore tragedy
I thought the consensus was that the Black Death wasn't spread by Rats anyways, it was spread by the Fleas that lived in their fur?
True. Same with Lyme disease. It is not the deer, but that frigging little tick
I think the point is kind of that the rats were the mode of transport for the fleas? Flea infested rats stowed away on ships, made it to places they weren't native to, the fleas left the rats and hopped into humans, spreading the disease
So in a way they did "spread" the disease, they're just not the ones who directly infected us
Actually, I’ve heard a study that said the fleas might’ve been the factors that moved it across the continent, but local spread was probably more due to lice.
Fleas don't move over long distances, so they can't effectively spread something across a continent.
It was the fleas that were on the rats that managed to transport the disease across long distances. But recent research has shown that it was most likely lice that transmitted it locally amongst populations. That is why it spread so rapidly, and was so devastating once it reached an area.

This has to be one of the best dam episodes ever
I enjoyed the dam photos and videos
And I'm here to inspect this dam.
Trivia: There's so much concrete in Hoover Dam that some of it is probably still curing. (drying)
Curing isn't just drying, it's a chemical process. Concrete dries faster than it cures.
That Ukrainian joke aged like wine or milk? Not sure.
Aged? Its not even close to its expiration date. Nothing changes.
Buttermilk.
@@CurveTheRainit’s like we put that joke in the freezer
like a fine Milkwine
We haven't even finished the processing, nothing has been bottled yet, therefore nothing has aged
I watched this episode when it first came out and I am still sad about the coffee cup. :,(
Thank you Last night team
Man...I didn't realize that the black and blue dress was 9 years ago...
I'm still waiting for that infrastructure movie. I need something to fall asleep to.
Just a reminder, the voice of BW and Unicron Trilogy Megatron is reading these Voice Overs. Which I find hilarious as the person who voiced the Decepticon Leader is talking shit about gerbils.
OGs know this infrastructure episode ironically ended up being one of the best ever.
One of my favorite “in a world” clips from this show. Vincent D’Onofrio? Come on!?!
“Thanks.”
“Don’t get cocky.” Ha ha ha ha haaaaa!
"We dont need more taxes, I wanna be on that 200 feet high bridge when it collapses"
"No one's paying attention to their damn problems" well put
Gawd I love Vincent D'onofrio lol
He wasn't even "featured' like Edward Norton or Steve Buschemi. I don't think he was nearly as popular because Daredevil hadn't started streaming on Netflix yet so people would have only known him as Private Pyle in Full Metal Jacket.
He was known for playing an insufferably smug detective on law and order criminal intent. That was the riff of this bit.
I live in Washington State. and the dams on the Columbia river haven't had anything more than basic maintenance in 50 years. and if any one of these dams were to fail? it would be a great loss of life. and President Biden is the first and only President to do something about infrastructure.

Mark Ruffolo, Edward Norton, Steve Buscemi, topped with this episode off.
Revisit: Fern Hollow, i95 Overpass Philly, Francis Scott Key Bridge
I actually would say "dangerous" sounds even worse than "unsafe" lmao
Parks and Rec is a show about maintaining infrastructure and small town public officials fighting for a cause, and it's legit one of the best sitcoms ever.
That maintenance 👩🏽🔧 talk., Cheered me Üp., after hearing about the ongoing contract “negotiations” with Ukraine 🇺🇦Politicians etc…🙏🏼🙄
"There are dangerous bridges everywhere!"
"Oh! I've seen this one!"
There does need to be "INFRASTRUCTURE: The Movie" I love maintenance, knowing that everything is gonna do just fine.
So, were these supposed to be uploaded in no particular order, or is there a method to this madness that I'm just not seeing?
That aside, really enjoying getting to see whole episodes on RUclips.

I made a playlist in order bc I was going insane
ruclips.net/p/PLDuAMQo3-2R-s_HMh5z4mtmWMA7odvZbF
There's a playlist, they're in order for me, just backwards. So end of season first, first episode of season 2 last.
Season 1 was fine, their youtube person probably just did the playlist wrong.
I actually enjoyed that infrastructure trailer so much
Repair roads & bridges? STILL NOT DONE.
Love it. Completely forgot about this beautiful Buscemi trailer.
Not one minute in and I'm sad. He was my most favorite character ever...
The cat surgeon is funny. The picture could be a keep calm T-shirt... SIT STILL!
The infrastructure issue hits hard just days after the Western North Carolina dam break. Praying for those displaced, and especially the missing and dead.
Is it likely this one was unavoidable? I guess, since it’s so beyond anything we have any record of ever. But it shows us the stakes.
Cat doctor became cat lawyer during Covid.
That Steve Buscemi line still fucking wrecks me 😂😂😂 What a movie ❤
> infrastructure is not a sexy subject
Railfans everywhere: Hold my NYC subway mug
This just in...we STILL need to fix US infrastructure.
Had to come back to the follow up episode to net neutrality
As a native Texan, I love our new motto, "Better 'an 'bama."
Can't believe the dress color thing was almost a decade ago...
I would watch the hell out of that movie!!!!😂😂😂😂😂
Starting today i will watch John in 0.25 speed 🤣 13:07
ok, one comment on the commercial at the end of the Infrastructure main story - there's an awful lot of water behind the Hoover Dam compared to pictures we've seen in the last few years...
I think infrastructure is sexy. Makes life smooth and elegant.
"Have another concrete way to raise that money" I C WAT U DID THAR
Biden saw this and decided to make it a major talking point years later. John Oliver is the new Simpsons.
Idk if John Oliver is still doing corrections, but in the gerbil montage the clip used for "buying wheels for them to run on" is actually of two Degus (Octodon degus) and not gerbils.
I would watch the Infrastructure show
Okay, but seriously, i could see someone making _Infrastructure_ as a disaster movie: show some real footage of politicians saying how strong some Infrastructure, like a bidge, is, and then the instigating event of the movie is something happening that it was explicitly supposed to handle, causing a collapse or a breach.

I was pretty ambivalent about that movie until they said Steve Buscemi was in it.
So.. Are you guys dropping all the old episodes, or just the ones that haven't been addressed in the decade since they aired (which is still all of them)?
Wait?! You can have a sausage sandwich? This is new information to me. I’m interested. I mean, I don’t eat a lot of meat is probably why I missed it but that sounds yummy.
Well, the infrastructure part is certainly still relevant, dam bridges collapsing.
Here we go! Weekly reality sadness incoming!
Not
It feels cathartic to be empowered with knowledge
@@heavenly2k This. It's not masochistic for me... I feel healing even if it's coming from a place of righteous indignation

22:56 breaking in his shock jock gag
why did you populate the playlist backwards?
Womp womp
Oct 2024, someone should have been giving a shit about the dams. Last i heard still 96 missing in NC.
You know it’s bad that I kind of want to watch that movie
That Ukrainian joke hits different now
I love it!
Remember that dangerous and unsafe are specific words in trades like engineering. Sounds ridiculous, but not nearly as much as one might think.
That dress is blue and black or violet instead of blue, am i missing something? Why did John say it was Gold and White.
I forgot how young and vibrant John Oliver used to be.
I hear it's infrastructure week
the gerbil attack ad is the greatest thing every put on video.
honestly hbo would make so much money if they made all the movie ideas john makes fake trailer for. the infrastructure one i would totally watch.
To pay our taxes and they can't even balance the budget how stupid are they we don't do that we go to jail for not paying our bills or have to file bankruptcy
