2:37 Is that Diane DiPrima?

KING’S BACK!!!!

When I was kid Jack wasn’t

Beginning of the end.

Thank you for introducing me to Murakami.

Why are you whispering a hundred words a minute? Slow down and speak clearly and balance your levels please. Great content I just wish I didn’t have to ride the volume button

I finally read On The Road a couple of years again and I was shocked how vacuous and pointless it is. It's about being a drunk day labourer. It's definitely NOT what the '60's were about and I'm baffled by the reverence it still commands. Sure, hopelessness is an existential problem that inspires great literature, but On The Road is entirely about the hopelessness of the alcoholic.

Drink and drugs are a lie that eventually kill you or entrap you, i never felt more free and inspired in all my 61 years than i have when clean and sober, real freedom. Mentally, physically and spiritually.

Real words 💯 that stoke the fires 🔥 from your very soul. Passion, ugliness, depression creates beautiful art 🎨 ✨️ ♥️. The Belfast poet Andrew Beattie. Food for thought...

We need people who can live,breathe and write ✍️ outside the box 📦 🙌. The Belfast poet Andrew Beattie. Food for thought...

Ginsberg was a gay hebephile. A truly filthy NY pervert. Burroughs was a drug-addled psychopath. Kerouac was slovenly drunkard and drug-addled misanthrope. None should ever be remembered for anything but.

"cementing their places"...most importantly.

Jack Kerouac is the best

Much of beat generation either turned to hippie movement, communism or pedophilia.

Do you think you could speak more slowly and clearly Right now it’s a garble you have to decipher using the few words you can hear Please

this is the beat generation, kid, look around. Wheres the meat - alls i got from this is a shallow puddle of dirty water that looks like a rainbow with motor oil

It sounds like another waist of time! Beatnik, hippie, woke!

If Gary actually said something to Jack, I don't know, but Snyders character commenting on Kerouacs wine drinking in Dharma Bums ultimately got me sober , it started the reflecting that made me realize I was heading down Jacks road. 25 yrs with not a drop, Thanks Gary, for the great poetry ,too!!

The "Beat Generation" was an anti-literary movement. It was largely unintelligent -- Burroughs and Ginsburg especially. Ginsburg was a pedophile, and his "Buddhist" "philosophy" was a mishmashed gibberish of irreconcilable fragments. Incoherence. He was and is not to be taken seriously. Kerouac retreated into living with his mother and drank himself to death. So we're to celebrate the self-destructive.

Is David Cross Ginsberg's relative?

What does "keskesay" mean?

Some people call it the Dead Beat generation. The philosophy and lifestyle of feckless, narcissistic nihilists. It heavily influenced and lead to the Beatnik and Hippy movements. Tragic figures of fun who were insufferably pretentious, typically middle class dropouts who indulged in casual sex and drugs. Luckily for the rest of us who found those movements cringe worthy beyond belief they were annihilated by the Heavy Metal, Ska, Electronic and Punk movements.

Neal Cassidy! I think of dean moriarty

I’m born indec 65 I don’t get it The Beat Generation I totally didn’t get hunter thompson either Idk I’m trying to think of some one I did like ???? Well any books you guys reccomend I should give them another shot ? Naked lunch and on the road ? I read ham on rye a long time ago it was meh !! Smar with the sun also rises about getting drunk in spain??? Meh

Dumb

I love you and your far out video. Thanks Daddy O.

Amazing channel.. watched all the videos ❤

Beat writers so overrated

Kerouac is gold, the other two pathetic degenerates.

Nothing as evil as an American.

It was when the hypocrisy of isms began to be revealed as a tool of the elite to enslave minds through the institutions of conformity that built the phony society all counter culture movements eventually sell out too.

So bad I hat to quit

Your voice

I hate to tell you this but you get the award for being the single worst narrator I have ever heard on TH-cam. 12 attack but had to turn off your clip after about 8 Seconds

Beats were different from hippies. Hippies one knew rarely read anything; neither would but a few even read the back of a cereal box at breakfast. Beats were readers and many appreciated literature. Where hippie and beat had commonality conjoined at the junction of counterculture -- both being such.

Low El Masschusetts lmao

Very well done--thank you. Love your filming and original editing. So many were in love with Jack. Capote was asked what he thought of "OTR". He replied, "Oh, that's just typing." I see this film is older; keep going--you have flair for matching characters to film to communication.

all the people complaining ginsberg support nambla shows that he is still a revolutionary.

What a waste of time.

It shows me that you really don't know what the beatniks are all about if you're always Tangled up in the sexuality part of of viewing it

Okay calm down on the sex crap that's all you ever do everything I talk about this s***I can't wait to talk about the real version of beatnik culture because everybody loves to stretch out the sex on it I'm so f****** tired of it😅 just shut up about it we get it sex exist

Those beat writers are my literary idols.

Nice video! If I could give one piece of constructive criticism: please slow down your speech. I’m a native English speaker but can barely understand you at time because words are compressed into such short spans of time. It might feel like when you slow down it’s too slow, but I promise it comes out sounding just right in post :) Wishing you the best!

Difficult now repeat the beat generation, seventy years are gone, and was no always beatific the ambiance. you can try with meditation, the East of philosophy is a possibility.

I am really struggling to get through “Go” by John Clellon Holmes . I fail to see any redeeming quality or special insight into life that can be gleaned from the anecdotes of mindless hedonism that these bohemian literature types write. I may try to read Kerouac one day but since I have not enjoyed “Go” or “The Sun also rises” I doubt I will get anything out of it.

They were all sex maniacs.

well you are making youtube videos people think are brilliant so you should consider yourself a true creator!

Robert Frank

Ginsberg was a card carrying member of NAMBLA and like to fuck little boys

You should do a repost of this video where you balance out the sounds. The levels are all over the place. A one point you have to crank up the volume to what's been said. The next you're being blown away.
