Christopher Hitchens - Late Night Hitch
Christopher Hitchens at his comedic best!
The majority of this video is based on the amazing performance Hitch gave at the Hay Festival in 2003, which unfortunately is available audio only on youtube. I have layered on top of the audio images and video clips, as well as integrating the best of his other comedic performances, to create a watchable version for viewers. Enjoy!

    "You can't bomb like you can bomb in Pyong Yang" HAHAHAHAHA fk its never gets funnier. "the uses of humiliation should never be neglected". If Hitchens deprived truthful writ to a career as a comedian we would have been deprived amazing pieces, but all our jaws would forever be sore from the laughter.

      The Irish stereotype, what would Brit comedy be without it. Apart from that. not bad, but would be better without a tired; past its prime stereotype. I have experienced some Catskills comedians, some bombed, some gross, not many with talent. Going there for Thanksgiving not a good idea. At our table a couple, not with their spouses, and a naif girl with a seriously toxic woman: a real bomb thrower. Add to that turkey, the texture of rubber and you get the idea, not an ideal getaway.

    Man comes home late with a chicken under his arm. Wife opens the doors and says, "Where the hell have you been?" Man says, "This is the pig I've been screwing." Wife says, "That's not a pig, that's a duck." Man says, "I wasn't talking to you."

    Listening to this documentary, I realised that here in Pakistan, we had young man named Mashal Khan. I don’t know anything about him. But he was an outspoken student in his university. He was killed by religious mobs in the university in 2019. I must say that you western are very lucky that you’re free to think and express. And Hitchens was the result of freedom of speech.

    I think people who bemoan Hitchens' straying from the true path of leftist ideology have somehow missed the point - for many years he'd stood for freedom of thought and expression unbounded by rigid conformity to a particular dogma. He may have been one thing in his twenties, he was certainly another in his sixties. It would have been odd and somewhat depressing had his thinking been preserved in aspic as that of an eternal soixant-huitard. His considerable intellect was such that it allowed him a range of thought that was ultimately unconfined to any of the pigeonholes in which we like to constrict ourselves.

      @@tiamaria123 Don't forget his books too. Hitch-22 is an absolutely terrific read. Also an exciting crash course in the latter-half of the 20th century's politics and history. So are God is not great, Arguably, and Love, Poverty and War. Like Coleridge and Oscar Wilde, I think the full charm of his personality, could only be experienced by meeting and talking to the man. His voice, gestures and wit could not be conveyed in writing. A little before his death, he wrote a marvelous essay on the subject: Unspoken Truths. I can't recommend it highly enough.
