thats what i love about him. hes very funny and sarcastic and random but hes also someone who can have a serious conversation with about the economy, books, philosophy, religion and he would know exactly what he was talking about. very very smart man
The interviewer is not that bad, and I like the fact that he let Craig talk freely. I prefer this kind of approach, which is the same Craig has, rather than when hosts keep on interrupting guests just to be noticed. Anyway, Craig should teach people how to chat, he's a master!
LISTEN TO HIS AUDIOBOOK. It's the audio version of his book, read by Craig himself. I've listened to it twice now. He does a fantastic job explaining things in a natural tone that really gives you a better idea of what his life was like. I got it at Audible.com.
Just ordered this book from borders. "Fuck Hollywood!" Craig Ferguson is far more entertaining than any other "Late nite" talk show host and it's all due to him being grounded & realistic. Appreciate the post !
I have read that same post by others on other videos about this book. Would seem to signify how invaluable it is when someone writes about actual trials and tribulations they’ve lived through and overcome so that it can inspire others to know they can do likewise.
the interviewer is pretty boring and kind of dry, but even so, Craig really knows how to answer questions in an enlightning and entertaining way. I just ordered the book online and I can't wait to read it! I'm sure its going to be great!
this is i think the first time i hae heard him say fuck without and oohlala hagalafarla or tootsie fruitsie he is awesoe and feels deeply about what he has done
Ohhhhh fffcucccck. I finished watching the inteview, and then read your comment, and realised even I did not listen to him saying 'fuck', without censorship. Daaamn. Thanks for this realisation.
Just because this nation was the first one to be founded upon these ideas. Freedom is the one value which justifies the US in its very existence. Obviously, European democracies and every other free nation equally stand for liberty and justice but I don't think there's an other country which exists for the sole reason because people wanted to be free.
I dunno. I totally agree with you that the United States exists solely because people wanted to be free but I don't know if they're unique in that position. Some other countries come to mind like Cuba or India. They might not have the most free regimes today but neither does America, you know? I think a lot of countries were born or at least radically changed due to aspirations of freedom. See what youre saying though with the US being created for freedom where other countries have prior history
ill give u that we do have the right to disagree and for bein irish i believe i have the right to beat a mans ass for callin me a yank and one question, who the hell is Vanna White.. whatever she is id prefer Scarlett Johansen, possibly even selma hayek but i really dont care Cheers my umm idk Hermaphrodite cousin?
A couple of things: 1. Athens, at that time, was a Greek city-state. 2. Democras is not a real person. Where did you get that?; 3. One person created democracy? It literally means "people power." How ironic but wrong. Democracy was probably created by the Greeks of Athens or possibly before that.

RIP Borders. Great bookstore.
i just saw a tape of craig performing stand-up in 1987, and his accent now is much more americanized

Update: Craig moved with his family back to Glasgow, Scotland in 2019. We'll miss you, Craig.
I love Craig Ferguson with all my heart, I absolutely adore this man he is purely brilliant!!!
Good to have you join us in our struggles Craig, even if you can only barely speak the language. 🙃
I read half of this book at 9/f HongKong general library and now live in Edinbrugh.

American on Purpose saved my life
I have read that same post by others on other videos about this book. Would seem to signify how invaluable it is when someone writes about actual trials and tribulations they’ve lived through and overcome so that it can inspire others to know they can do likewise.
did anyone notice his awesome shoes/boots? Craig is awesome
A day of fishing 🎣 is better than a day of work
I love how he says Idear!
I am reading the book at Hong Kong Central Library. the best book I have read
between the bridge and the river was amazing... american on purpose was pretty damn good... I wish he's write another work of fiction
I love Craig!!!
You've seen his work in the UK then. He's living the American Dream now.
He’s back in my country SCOTLAND 🏴
American dream? Whats that?
the interviewer is pretty boring and kind of dry, but even so, Craig really knows how to answer questions in an enlightning and entertaining way.
I just ordered the book online and I can't wait to read it! I'm sure its going to be great!
10:18 fuck! that hit home. Man I love this guy.
Always liked him.
this is i think the first time i hae heard him say fuck without and oohlala hagalafarla or tootsie fruitsie he is awesoe and feels deeply about what he has done
Give this man the biggest studio in the world ffs!
Wow 10:05 shocked me! I've never heard Craig say "fuck" before without being censored. I always wanted to know how it sounded.
Ohhhhh fffcucccck.
I finished watching the inteview, and then read your comment, and realised even I did not listen to him saying 'fuck', without censorship. Daaamn.
Thanks for this realisation.
RIP Borders.
loving the boots ... are they the same from the book cover?
God, I love this man. Go on with your fuckin' authentic self, Craig!!! :)
My library has the audiobook. It was fucking hilarious.
We have a right here in the U.K to an opinion on U.S policy . I have a right to an opinion on Scottish politics too.I am not brain dead yet .
This is the first time I've heard him say Fuck and not get bleeped.
with you are a cool guy, you're cooler with Craig's presence .

who the heaven decided to put this interviewer on TV? :S
did they split the diet coke 8:03
"Fuck hollywood!" also, "Good luck meeting people in bookstores!"
"tutsi frutsi"
In your pants.

10:10-11:06 damn straight
Actually democracy was invented in Athens, not that this has anything to do with Craig Ferguson.
...........
I agree with the one who said the interviewer is very sloth-y.
I guess his views on America changed since he went back to Scotland
he is such a passionate man.. with great boots :D.. (somebody please tell me, that that interviewer is on sleeping pills O.o)
Cregg? CREGG? Its CRAIG! Americans...
Americans can not speak English!
Craig Ferguson an idol for Mediocrity !
How is it possible that, as an European, you feel like an American? And agree with the constitution? Very strange!
Things weren't nearly as crazy in 2009 as they are now. But he explains in detail in his book.
ill give u that we do have the right to disagree and for bein irish i believe i have the right to beat a mans ass for callin me a yank and one question, who the hell is Vanna White.. whatever she is id prefer Scarlett Johansen, possibly even selma hayek but i really dont care
Cheers my umm idk Hermaphrodite cousin?
why is this interviewer so..... sloth like
swiss chard wanted to slap him awake throughout the interview. Funny someone so devoid of charisma is interviewing such a wonderful conversationalist.
Actually, Greece, fool.
um...Democracy was invented in Greece...by Democras.
A couple of things: 1. Athens, at that time, was a Greek city-state. 2. Democras is not a real person. Where did you get that?; 3. One person created democracy? It literally means "people power." How ironic but wrong.
Democracy was probably created by the Greeks of Athens or possibly before that.
The interviewer is bland as hell; typical Borders employee.
Stop it you were a good drummer !
Always liked him.
