Toxic masculinity, and we're still denying its existence, school shooting, after school shooting, after school shooting. Don't tell me this isn't a fucked up country, full of fucked up rednecks, right-wingers and jar heads, because it is . . and all the way up to occupying the white house itself, yet again.

What inspired Matt Lauer to sexually harass female co workers?

He was a recovering addict that help many people get clean and sober by just attending A.A and N.A. god bless

Jim Carroll was brilliant

This is my favorite Jim Carroll poem.

@7:17 the lawyer is using Jim as a scapegoat

@5:14 Ohhhh No Way. 😆 its a dream sequence of sorts

Jim Carroll was a sweet and gentle soul. It’s ridiculous to point the finger at him!

Beautiful man.

"Lauer has distanced himself from friendships after Couric wrote about his sexual misconduct allegations in her 2021 book"

Jim cleared this controversy up really fast with a clear understanding and logic. Ive been a huge fan ever since the "Catolic Boy " album in the rarly eighties. R.I.P. Jim

I met Jim Carroll in 1995 and he signed my book of his poems. Instead of just signing his name he wrote a little note to me encouraging me to continue writing. Then he wrote Love, Jim Carroll. Later that night my sister and I were downtown in Seattle and walking near a 7-11. Here comes Jim strolling down the street. We made eye contact and we both laughed and waved as he passed. About two years later I waited for him outside of a bar he was speaking in and when he came out I asked if he remembered me. He smiled and said yes and gave me a kiss on the head. Jim was one of the realist, sweetest people you could ever meet.

this interviewer has 0 shame... why is he GRILLING him?

A true genius I could listen to him speak all day ,I love how many times he references to idiot Matt Lauer “if you read the book “ Clearly he has not read this book or probably many books like this ,Catcher in The Rye ,Tom Sawyer …

Too bad the guy didn't ask him more, when Jim mention the different reactions he got, Reading poetry and the schools, the inner-city school are all the boys said this is sissy stuff. And the other school we're all the kids love it. I feel that's the place to begin.

The attorney who blamed the movie the basketball diaries is full of shit for the reason those idiots shot kids. Cmon wtf they were idiots. I’ve watched that movie a hundred times and I love it as a former Addict who’s come all the way back it was an inspiration. It’s bullshit

The shooting part was one or two paragraphs of Jim day dreaming about going nuts with a machine gun. JIM IS NOT RESPONSIBLE !!!

Very intelligent and uniquely creative mind.

in the end he gets clean ..im clean now too

poor baby :( getting accused for the scene when he had no intention for it to be like that

Those are kids who died who died

I started to read that book. And who can mimick the scene from the movie?

I really wish Jim could have lived a little longer. I think he could have done a lot more good in the world. Love his writings and poetry and the hope he tried to put into others.

RIP Jim

The fact this man was a herion addict at 15 and then came this far I amazing

"... they have died with their innocence untested..."

Lol. My man interviewing him is now gone because he is a sexual predator!!!!

Jim Carrol and his are both a positive thing.

Jim Carroll was an amazing writer and performer. I met him in Long Beach in the early 1980's. He was a gentle soul.

Basketball Diaries is a very emotional movie . The big point is - HE GOT HELP AND RELIEF FROM ADDICTION AT THE END !!! He gets better, It can be done !

This guy has lived the life. I've been through many decisions I had to make sure that I tried. But unfortunately some people get IT wrong with the message.

Blaming a movie or a book for someone murdering others is simply absurd.

It’s not the movies or games ! It’s the way the kids are raised or mental health

RIP ELIZABETH & JIM CARROLL RIP 💔💔🙏🏽

great video quality. so crisp, so clean and crystaline.

May the repose of his soul so Rest In Peace.

what a hit peice. It was the movie,he saw a film,he didn't read a book. he just too dumb to remember such a name as Leo's.

Jim Carroll is spot on

The Manson Family listened to the Beatles heavily.

Too bad people never do great things because of some minor fantasy scene in a movie. Wow, what a minor fcking part of the whole story to be the only thing taken away from it.

fucking shark lawyer out to get money. Lawyers are the biggest problem with the USA.

I love the nostalgia and bright moments of the book … I just want to be pure

Yeah.

love the guitar riff over the steady bass line

I feel terrible for the parents, But I watched a Shitload of movies and NEVER went out and did this Shit!!! How dare you blame Jim for that kids Mental fucking health?? Take responsibility for not knowing your own Child close enough to know he’s Mentally Fucked… this pisses me off..

I’m addicted to this mans music ❤️ Rip

I understand the anger. But this is ridiculous!

Of course the media points the finger at Jim Carroll, ( Rest in peace Jim ) Because they wanted to protect Leonardo DiCaprio and Hollywood. In my opinion if anyone is to blame it's the media for pushing their false narratives.

No book, film, or work of art can make somebody go on a killing spree. That's something that's existing within you already. And C'mon... The Basketball Diaries? I read it a longgggg time ago and nothing in the book made me give a thought to doing something terrible to others.

how is it his fault wtf
