he made himself a addict. He just run from the pain of being a man, he never escaped it. Even the great alpha male Hemingway ended shooting his brains out because he did never confront his deamons.
@@Ikaros23 "He just run from the pain of being a man" Well said. I fuckin love reading Thompson, but youre right, his subconscious must have been a monster!
Hunter Thompson was my hero for like a decade in my twenties. Then I started to try to sort out the genuine and the parody in Hunter. And I tried to separate the good and the bad of Hunter Thompson and in that journey I realized I didn’t need a hero and humans were just humans
He was my hero as well. I wanted (perhaps still dream) to be a writer. I read his stuff and it was nothing I'd ever been exposed to before. He was a warrior on the page and I deeply admired him. I too, however, looked more deeply at HST and saw, of course, my image of him was incomplete and in that respect flawed. I saw him do an interview in his later life, and he gave one of his famous howls in the midst of a rambling nearly incoherent interview. In that moment, I remember my heart truly breaking. It was a physical sensation that I remember vividly to this day as I realized the vision I had of him was my own invention. I didn't know him. I have read nearly everything he's put to page and though my vision of him was shattered, I still think of him as one of my favorite writers. I am still able to admire him, but I too came to the conclusion that it is perhaps not even healthy to have "heroes". He did hurt people in his life, he could be cruel to his friends. Yet, if I could ever create the sort of thrill and emotion he created with his words, I would count myself successful. My art is in the classroom, and what I take from HST into my classroom is his fearless ability to tell the truth in such a way as to make my students think, and smile, and laugh, and then later...to think some more. RIP Hunter, you grumpy old bastard.
MisterHild The beginning of Fear and Loathing the novel is some of the best writing of all time. The whole book is, but that beginning is something else entirely. It’s pure poetry
@@dylanharkin8198 have u ever heard of Chelan Harkin? brilliant poetry that is worth checking out, u can find RUclips readings from her book Susceptible to Light, i'd start with her poem ~the worst thing~
Rogan references Hunter’s appearance on Conan like its a low moment. While clearly Hunter was under the influence and not at his sharpest for the segment, he was still hilarious and handled it with awesome stories and the brilliant wit is definitely there.
He said he take over 30mg of aderrall everyday. Idk what tf is wrong with him or why someone needs that unless he’s not stable mentally. Hope he gets better.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, and a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers... and also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of Budweiser, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. Not that we needed all that for the trip, but once you get locked into a serious drug collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can.
Maybe it’s just because I’ve watched so many films, interviews and clips with Hunter, but I never had any problem understanding him when he spoke... even when he was in his 60’s.
Its a style and takes time to get use to, but at first it was hard to understand. However, to this day his style of speech is the most intellectual, passionate and authoritative ive ever heard.
Everyone who's supposed to be impossible to understand (thompson, keith richards etc.) I've always found easy to listen to. I think people like to make a big deal out of it because it makes them seem weirder
Have you seen his interview with Charlie Rose around '97 or '98? He just mumbles and isn't the most coherent. He wasn't like this all the time but Joe and this other guy aren't speaking out of turn.
This dude is kind of over romanticizing Hunter a little bit the people who lived around Hunter say he inflicted a pretty sizeable amount of pain on them as well. Not saying he was all bad but in his later life he did alot of not cool shit maybe it was because of whatever pain he felt but it doesn't excuse it.
"I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they've always worked well for me" so many amazing quotes i couldnt possibly pick a favorite "faster , faster, faster, until the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death"
This is pure passion. I only wish i saw more of it in general, that it wouldnt be an oddity of sorts, to witness someone caring that the truth of a persons life be borne out in the end. I think im going to read his book.
@@jixxytrix1705 Exactly as I said, just morons that don't know Doc Hunter's work think he was "a cartoon", he has more than 10 published books, each one deeper, more socially relevant than the next, while "Jixxy Trix" thinks they're more of an intellectual or more "real" than him, HST was an ocean, you're a pothole filled with dirty water.
@@Mr.Meeseeks. You can turn anything into a cartoon, HST's life was pretty hard and depressing though, he was a dark figure, he had violent bursts, was an alcoholic, I've read almost every book of his, he wasn't cartoonish as you think if you only know him for Fear and Loathing In Las Vegas and his Gonzo pieces.
I see those on every 1 of Roe Jogans videos and they are usually all funny and i personally havent ever seen this 1 before ..it was funny ...if you dont think so why waste your time why not just keep on scrolling scrolling scrolling ahhh yeeaa keep on scrolling baby you know what time it is
I didn't like that movie. I thought it was a dragging mass of boredom. But Bill Murray was pretty good. I can't compare his preformance to Depp's, but it was still pretty good.
@@tedcruzforgayrights2045 maybe I'm paranoid but i wouldn't trust a Pizza Kitchen in that matter. Maybe a Mississippi Casserole Hallway but not a Californian Pizza Kitchen. I'm not crazy.
Thompson was a brilliant writer and created a "style" but unleashed self serving monsters on the landscape. All the gonzo wannabes helped kill real journalism. Thompson fried his brain and killed his talent early. All that was left, for decades, was his reputation, pain and anger. He was that cartoon character, perhaps by choice.
Flashy Paws TL;DR ...a few sentences into it reveals how much of a fucktard you are. Obviously, you love hearing yourself talk and think other people enjoy it as much. As exposed by the fact that you went back and edited your remark. What a loser!
HST was interesting as a writer. But getting high and going on adventures is not a realistic mentality, unless you’re a well funded teenager, and even that has a shelf life.. Eventually folks will just call you a fucking junkie and forget about you.
Thompson never needed the drugs, his mind was really quick anyway, early on you could see that in his black and white "Hells angles interview". He really did have a unique perception in his insight. He just kind of veered off into left field after 76. He could still real it in occasionally, maybe like Bo Jackson with the fake hip on the baseball field. Just an occasional flash of what he used to be...
This dude is way too in awe of his subject. Worse is he is borrowing his hero's grudges from 50 years ago and trying to relive them in any way possible today.
Man dont hate on the dude all addyed up. He is passionate about his work. You cant right about Hunter Thompson and be sober. He is paying tribute to Hunter by using Gonzo journalism himself. Thats pretty tight
HST may not have seen the fight, he thought he’d bring bad vibes, but he did write a beautiful piece about it, and had a great interview and meeting with Ali wearing a realistic devil mask! After almost getting jumped by Ali’s security. Another fantastic book about that amazing night in Kinshasa was written by Norman Mailer, called The Fight. If you think modern fights are hyped, read this story and you’ll see just how crazy it got for the people involved prior to the big night.
Two things: that guy looks like he's trying not to try this whole clip, and I think if Hunter S Thompson could see what's happened to American politics and the state of the country he'd be beside himself. "How the fuck did this happen again?"
Hunter was controversial but he was intresting. We do not have anyone of Hunter's caliber doing journalism these days . The journalists now are all too polished and politically correct . The journalists are boring . Hunter was a blast when he was in his prime !
His main criticism of Nixon is "he was anti-communist" like it's a bad thing. I'm no fan of Nixon by any stretch of the imagination but that's a very sketchy statement
Hunter S. Thompson admitted to murder on Conan. There is a story that has clout that he filmed a snuff film. He also hung out at Hillbilly camp at Bohemian Grove with the Bush Klan. I had a hard time excepting that being a fan.
Aww does the snowflake need a safe space from criticism of his moronic idol? xD Hunter would have eviscerated Trump; he's Nixon on steroids. Trump is everything Hunter despised.
I kind of wondered the same thing - I was reading some stuff that Juan Thompson wrote about his dad, and he used that same language. So I think Denevi is probably nodding to that
I always love how behind the madness around him, Hunter drops these moments of absolute clarity that hit the heart of it.
It caused him to commit suicide because it never quits... I know the feeling
Unfortunately the man understood the scope of humanity too well. It leads to chaos and eventual self-destruction. That fear and loathing of the inescapable reality around u….

I get that this is funny, but this podcast is about getting away from this version of Hunter and its the top voted in the comments. Just saying.
Hunter Thompson is a weird one. His writing is so lucid and clear, yet whenever I see video of him, he comes off as totally incoherent in his speech.
Almost like he did a lot of drugs or something.
He was one of a kind. Both crazed by drugs and one of the sharpest spirit of his generation.
How? Did you watch omnibus?
