I truly doubt there is any comedian on George Carlin's level. His ability to rattle of chains of information without having to think about it. His topics and the support he has for his topics is incredible. It is my feeling George Carlin is not just a comedic genius, but a genius all by himself.
Look at his early standup and I think you will see that like a great musician he never quit growing and learning by observing the absurdities we just accept in our devolving perception of reality. He did not improvise but rather constructed words in the way authors or poets create. Great comedians like Robin Williams could improvise like crazy and it was funny as hell but he never made me think about what he said the way Carlin could. He told us what we knew in our hearts but we're unable to articulate. His observation of truth in the manipulation of society by lies and deceit helped some of us wake up to truth in our own perceptions.
Agree to a certain extent. I wouldn't say he rattles off the information without having to think, I would say he has all his points well researched and hours put into how the sentences are arranged and the words ordered. But I think that's what makes him a genius. A lot of hard work on his behalf makes us laugh, as his comedy treads the line of philosophy making us question our beliefs and perceptions.
I think of him less as a comedian and more as a teacher giving lectures. He used comedy to make us pay attention and to think about the points he was making, to think about the absurdity of things we weren't even thinking about. He was funny, but more importantly he was an educator. RIP, George.
I just found your channel today. I'm an old fan of Carlin from way back (the 70s), I love how meaningful his work is to this day, to anyone who is willing to listen with an open mind, and then consider his words. You do. You are obviously a well-read, thoughtful lady; insightful and eloquent. Oh, stunningly beautiful, too, and your intellect clearly adds to that, as well. I've been going through your Carlin reactions, and I doubt I'll stop there. You enchant this old man. :)
I was fortunate enough to live next door to an advertising producer for Proctor & Gamble in the '70s, and as kids, he told us some things about his craft, and ALL advertising. One which sticks in my mind was an ad for Spick and Span cleanser where they used a double-headed mop to "prove" that their product cleans better than their competitor's. The lie in that ad was that one bucket was filled with ice water, and the other with scolding hot water. The trick was that they used filters on the camera lens so 'we' couldn't see the steam wafting out of the bucket containing boiling water. I've made it a mission to raise awareness of advertising, especially with my sons (and their friends). I've trained them to dissect every single word in any commercial and to read between the lines for context because every advertisement is trying to pick their (OUR) pockets. My kids are now quite adept at picking apart the propaganda they see on television, and I'm proud of them! Perhaps the most offensive ad I love to decode is one for *gold clad* (likely a film no more than 1 molecule in thickness) coin proofs where they talk about the skyrocketing gold market and "to avoid disappointment and future regret, ACT NOW," etc... It's sickening, and reminds me of a truism - "nobody ever went broke underestimating the stupidity of the American people." (Mark Twain??) Most important of all (IMO) is familiarity with the name Edward Bernays, nephew of Sigmund Freud, and 'father' of contemporary propaganda. He is THE one who discovered how to manipulate the masses. HE is the one who figured out that preying on people's primal instincts is the way to sell...ANYTHING. From cars to politicians to "food-products'' (insert our hero, George Carlin, here), he opened the door for American-style capitalism run amok. The more I've learned about Edward Bernays, the more squarely I point my finger at him for ALL of our society's ills. He was a dastardly man who, as I remember it, denounced his life's work on his deathbed - good riddance, but he left this world with the reprehensible ramifications of his greed. Here's a little primer of what he did to us for anyone who's interested in the TRUTH of advertising.... th-cam.com/video/qiKMmrG1ZKU/w-d-xo.html And here's another VERY related topic to point your finger at Bernays for... th-cam.com/video/9GorqroigqM/w-d-xo.html
Reading the label of a tub of sweets we had in a tuck shop at work I was amused to read (in toal): "artificial flavouring, artificial colouring". The use of "no added ..." (usually for sugar) often means that the item is rich in 'natural sugars' such as fructose, etc., and seeing the amount of sugar in some things, especially some drinks, is scary! I tried a bottle (I think it was 500ml, but could have been 330ml) and I idly glanced at the ingredient data and was rather shocked to find this one small bottle of drink contained more than the recommended daily intake of sugar for an adult; it was about 1.2 times if I recall correctly. Thanks Mountain Dew! My first, and last, time of drinking the stuff. I can't think of any UK comedians that have the same sort of approach as some of the US comics such as Carlin, Hicks, etc., but if I do think of one I'll let you know. The closest that come to mind are some of the 'new wave' of many years ago such as Alexei Sayle and Ben Elton who were left-wing comedians who castigated Margaret Thatcher (it being that era).
@@taoist32 well aware of that. My point is that ads are designed to appeal in order to make money. So they aren't always an honest representation, just enticing.
I love the minute you took to talk about gluten free foods because as a diabetic I check the ingredients and nutritional data of all my foods and these gluten free foods usually have higher amounts of salts and sugars to make up for the lack of gluten. What I figured out is you can't trust advertising because advertising is just an attempt to get you to buy the product.
Carlin at his best is mostly uncompromising. He is, so far, one of the greatest social commentators of all time. Most of the comedians you mentioned would probably acquiesce to that
Hi NP! Thanks for brightening a dreary Texas Monday(overcast & raining 😞)! There really isn't anyone that compares to George Carlin, he's in a class of his own, a visionary and philosopher of sorts. Some of his contemporaries I thought were close were Richard Pryor, Sam Kinison, and Robin Williams. Thanks for this upload and I'm looking forward to the next one! ✌️ ☮️ 🇱🇷❤️
If you look into the tragic past of Robin Williams you understand where the humour developed and his inner demons. Sad ancient tales of abused/neglected child used by a depressed mother to keep her spirits up and fight her depression. It was his role to keep her happy. That is so wrong and so backwards. The adult is responsible for themselves and the child. The child is not supposed to be burdened with adult duties and responsibilities. Pain turned to art is beautiful but pain is still the root. He tried for so long to lead the life of making others laugh that he never was able to conquer those demons in his head. The voice one assumes of his inner mother that refused to let him be sad or a child in need of help. There is sad tragic truth behind the laughs. Far too many tales. I know history. War time Britain especially, the children were spared as much as possible the worst of the war. Even during the Blitz living underground efforts were made for things like birthdays, and Christmas. They don't have to know what is really happening in detail. Their childhood is important and the chance to grow into stable adults who can laugh and be silly, but can be serious and do the hard work of an adult world. I cherish the laughter of Robin Williams and mourn the pain that took him from the world.
I found George Carlin in my 20's, and always loved his routines. This one hit me when I was struggling to provide while in the military, I found a bottle of breakfast syrup. It had the "No Added Sugar" stamp, and the first ingredient was corn syrup.... so yea...
@@jamesaustin1047 I disagree, Stanhope has a set of things he talks about, he rarely varies outside of his wheelhouse. Carlin talks about social issues and politics in a way no one else does. Again I love Stanhope, but his bag is very different.
It's refreshing to find someone who actually knows how to make a video - the same cannot be said of the majority. Congratulations. Minor sidenote: far too many people are ignorant of what gluten is, apparently believing it's some evil substance. It's a natural protein and completely innocuous, unless you happen to be a celiac- like my father - or suffer some form of intolerance. Thanks for making a straight to the point and, as George would have said, "bullshit-free" videos. ❤
no shit, i got prescribed this drug and it had this side effect , very rare; sudden death. Now, i'd like the 'very rare' part to be defined XD .. anyway Carlin is the GOAT hard to top and very much missed. Cant even imagine the shit he would ve come up with considering everything thats happening nowadays and how society has changed.
You are a breath of fresh air. I love watching your videos. The beauty,the smarts,intelligence, the smile. Keep doing your thing. I hope you and your family have a wonderful holiday season😊😊
I think I've just spent the past hour watching your videos... it's amazing how much more insight you're able to add at the end. This is an excellent channel, and you've just earned yourself a new subscriber! Speaking of ads & pharmaceutical companies, one of the first ads I saw with the mandatory side-effect disclaimer was for a diet pill (just keep that in mind). they spent 30 seconds talking about what the pill is for, and *5 minutes talking about the side-effects* (I kept looking at the clock waiting for the ad to end, so I noticed how long it was). And one of the side effects was death. for a diet pill!! Losing weight is not worth killing yourself. When Garfield said "Diet is die with a T at the end," I thought it was just a joke... Anyway, from one 90s kid to another, thank you for making this video
Off camera I highly suggest watching his specials, especially the ones in the 90s. He blisters asses during that time frame, at least more than he did previous to that decade. Keep em comin🤘
I’m pretty all over the place as far as subject matter! People typically send links here on YT or on IG & I try to get through them more or less in order
i just stumbled upon this channel and i have to say i really like how you instantly just start the video without talking youtube-nonsense for the first 2 minutes. it's also really relaxing listening to your comments :D i have a feeling you might find volker pispers interesting. he does satire in german, but there's uploads of one of his better known shows with english subtitles. he talks about politics and how some events in the past where handled (by the US), and he's pretty blunt about it, but also pretty witty c: there's actually multiple reaction videos by a bunch of youtubers, but it would be interesting to hear your thoughts on this.
Reading recommendation isn't a book per se, but a related topic: Bioavailability, RDI (recommended dosage intake) and RDA (recommended dosage allowed). Back in college I was an intern on a project collaboration between the statistics and nutrition department and got to learn a bit about those. RDIs serve as a guideline for how much of each nutrient you should get to stay healthy and mostly vary with weight and caloric budget. RDAs are more about how far can you go before you begin to risk poisoning or long term damage to your organs from excessive consumption. It hit me hard when I realized Vitamin C has an RDA of 2000mg/day and vitamin tablets came in 500mg with 8 hour intervals. Any person taking one more just because they can risked kidney damage in the long run if it was a habit. Think of Linus Pauling being paid to say vitamins could never harm you and taking one every time a camera was pointed at him... then check his medical issues at your favorite source =( The project itself was about anaemia and finding out fortified (supplemented) food could cause iron poisoning was shocking as well. Because nutrients can be absorbed in different stages of digestion through different chemical reactions, they can compete for available resources. That's where bioavailability comes in it is knowing what combinations can ensure or undermine the absorption of a nutrient of interest. And because iron would dispute absorption sites with a couple quite common nutrients at every stage and get boosts from others, it was always a concern that you could flip from not enough to way too much absorption without changin the iron dosage itself.
So much I didn’t know here! Had to quickly look into Linus Pauling, as I wasn’t familiar with him before. I’ll have to keep RDI in mind while taking Zinc, which often makes me very nauseous. Thanks Daniel!!
@@NoProtocol zinc had a weird relation with magnesium and iron that was pending confirmation when I left the project. Don't remember if it was with Fe+2 or Fe+3, one is vegetable sourced iron and the other is meat sourced. Love your comments and recommendations, all the best to you!
I don't think you will ever find a comedian that is on par with George Carlin, I can surely not come up with one. There's so many great comedians out there, but no one, in my opinion, can ever compare with George. Me he rest in peace, wait, no, I hope wherever he is, he is causing one hell of a ruckus. Love your reaction videos to his work though. Best wishes from Sweden.
George Carlin was a master of his craft. He was real. He didn't sugar coat anything. My comedic suggestions include: Eddie Murphy - Raw, as well as Delirious. They are exceedingly vulgar, but oh so funny. Robin Williams - Live at the Met, was also an amazing show to behold. Dave Chappelle's "Charlie Murphy True Life Stories" on his show made my stomach hurt from laughing so hard.
I love your insights. George can be hilarious or didactic or both at the same time. I have been a fan of his since the mid seventies. A lot of his bits are pure genius. If you have the time, check out football versus baseball if you have not done so already. I would love to hear more of your analysis.
I consider myself a comedy aficionado, and in my 50+ years, I've never seen anyone close to Carlin's style, particularly in his later years. However, Bo Burnham has the same sort of "telling the truth through comedy" vibe and often will leave you contemplating the world afterwards. If interested, here are a few suggestions to get you started... 1) Welcome to the internet 2) How the world works 3) From God's perspective (Also look at Can't Handle This and All Eyes on Me for a better understanding of Bo himself.) Love the channel. :)
Yes, but no… Norm is my 2nd of all time as well. He, however, sometimes prided himself in his ability to disappoint. Took me years to understand his roast on Saget, but I love him even more for it since.
This bit always reminds me of a Bugs Bunny routine in a movie theater (It was in the beginning of the Roger Rabbit VHS). Bugs says a line that I never forgot: "Would you like genuine artificial imitation butter flavor on your popcorn?" In America, every time you see "sugar free", look to see if it has corn syrup, which is essentially sugar, and in just about every food product produced in this country. If you haven't seen it, you should search YT for a clip about people in the UK reacting to drug adverts in America. They all seem flabbergasted that this even exists.
I love how you can have these chemical-tasting gummies and it says Fat-Free snack! Lmao. What it reminded me of when you were on the GF/no sugar added bit
I also like the bluntness of Bill Burr. I also like Ron White. And as stated prior, your natural beauty and sharp wit are a winning combination that always brings me back 😊
In the UK we have pubs that advertise their food as being "locally produced". E.g. "Local Sausages". How do they taste better than sausages produced 50 miles away. Gets me every time.
I am always looking for new people to react to. I’m glad I found you. You are very bright, articulate, intelligent individual, and very beautiful young woman. Might I add as well in seeing that when I try to think of a so-called standup comedian, that could come anywhere close to George carlin one name comes to mind I don’t know if you’ve ever heard of him, but if not try looking up a comedian named Gallagher he’s about the closest. It comes to George carlin, but nobody can equal George carlin.
So, I wouldn't put him on nearly the same level, but when it comes to impact YET, but there are a lot of things from Bo Burnham that are the same intelligence level, but it's much more self reflective than observational. "From God's Perspective", "New Math", "Welcome to the Internet"...I'd take a look at him if you've never seen him. OR.....do some Epic Rap Battles of History. I'd love to see you react to Alexander the Great vs Ivan the Terrible or George Carlin vs Richard Pryor.
George was truly unique, his own man.. I've never seen another like him nor do I think we will but I think Dave Chappelle is the closest to being as dry yet on point as George was but his approach is different
Here's a literary recommendation for you, Weird Scenes Inside The Cannon by David McGowen Here's another one, The Men Who Stare At Goats by Jon Ronson And here's a heart because I like you ❤
I'm doing a plant-based diet right now, and I stick to sources that are explicitly plant-based. There are times when I see these "vegan" options that have so many bad stats (fats, sodium, carbs, etc.) that I shouldn't be intaking, so I understand what you're saying when you say "things are gluten free" aren't necessarily healthy. I 100% agree. Just because something is vegan or gluten free, or even sugar free, doesn't mean it's a healthy alternative. We either need to educate ourseleves on dietary requirements/needs for our personal healthy regimen, or we need to come up with a universal rating system so we know which foods we can safely digest based on our own requirements. Imageine if we had a color based system where we could KNOW that what we were consuming was what our individual requirements demanded, to be healthy. What a world we would live in. I am a teal person, I can handle these things and my body won't kill me more quickly than if I go red. lol
I'd recommend Ricky Gervais' latest special on Netflix I believe. I believe you covered one of his Golden Globes monologues, but his latest special also hits home.
When I shop for groceries I don't even look what's on the label, I look at the price, cheaper the better then I throw it in a pot turn on the stove and when I smell it rich in the air, that means it done and then I let sit a minute or two,then eat it right out the pot or pan instead of dirtying up dishes 😂😂
About George's last point, the one about the use of the word 'natural' there's a substance that was once used as a natural vanilla flavor. It's obsolete now because people can make vanillin in a lab, vanillin being the primary flavor component of vanilla extract, though it lacks the supporting compounds that affect the flavor of actual vanilla extract a little, so to someone with a discerning sense of taste, it would taste a little off. Still a lot cheaper than both real vanilla and the substance I'm talking about. Now, tangent aside, the ingredient 'natural vanilla flavor' that used to be on some food labels before the use of the ingredient was discontinued was an oil secreted by a scent gland on the backside of beavers, specifically the gland that would provide the scent for the fluid the beavers spray to mark their territory. The coloring agent Red 40 is a natural color. It's also known as Carmine. it has its origin in Native American war paint. It's made by crushing a specific species of beetle into a paste. The paste is a vibrant red color, about the hue of fresh red paint. As an aside, it's also almost as hard to get out of clothing as blood. As for George's comment about chemical waste being natural, he's absolutely right. Chemical waste is completely natural. It's the natural byproducts of the chemical reactions humans produce in controlled settings to create so-called 'artificial' products. Anything manmade could theoretically occur in nature, if the conditions were right. Really all humans do to create 'artificial' things is force the conditions to be right. One of the conditions is to have the right components in place to interact. That's all controlled environments are, environments that force the conditions to be right for whatever outcome you want. The control is in omitting any unwanted conditions.
I had such a hard day at work. I come home and watch No Protocol do a reaction. She has an incredible smile. My day is now better.
Natural Beauty, and Intellect, are a winning combo . I agree.
her smile is pretty special
calm down

Agreed and almost there are Chappelle and Williams sets. Top three for deep laughter and insightful questions.
while not as good as George I think that Lewis Black comes pretty close to matching a lot of the same talking points; albeit angrier.
@@pointlessmanatee Never heard of whoever your talking about mate so they cant be on the same level as the legend - George Carlin.
Agree to a certain extent.

Carlins dad was an advertising executive. His mom was an executive secretary in the advertising industry. His advertising bullshit meter is epic.
Dave Chapelle is somewhat similar in the way he can just talk about the truth and be entertaining. He's probably my favourite comedian tbh
I enjoy Dave Chapelle as well
I agree 100% both are like philosophers from Athens lol

i just stumbled upon this channel and i have to say i really like how you instantly just start the video without talking youtube-nonsense for the first 2 minutes. it's also really relaxing listening to your comments :D
i have a feeling you might find volker pispers interesting. he does satire in german, but there's uploads of one of his better known shows with english subtitles. he talks about politics and how some events in the past where handled (by the US), and he's pretty blunt about it, but also pretty witty c: there's actually multiple reaction videos by a bunch of youtubers, but it would be interesting to hear your thoughts on this.
Reading recommendation isn't a book per se, but a related topic:
Bioavailability, RDI (recommended dosage intake) and RDA (recommended dosage allowed).
Back in college I was an intern on a project collaboration between the statistics and nutrition department and got to learn a bit about those.
RDIs serve as a guideline for how much of each nutrient you should get to stay healthy and mostly vary with weight and caloric budget.
RDAs are more about how far can you go before you begin to risk poisoning or long term damage to your organs from excessive consumption.
It hit me hard when I realized Vitamin C has an RDA of 2000mg/day and vitamin tablets came in 500mg with 8 hour intervals.
Any person taking one more just because they can risked kidney damage in the long run if it was a habit.
Think of Linus Pauling being paid to say vitamins could never harm you and taking one every time a camera was pointed at him... then check his medical issues at your favorite source =(
The project itself was about anaemia and finding out fortified (supplemented) food could cause iron poisoning was shocking as well.
Because nutrients can be absorbed in different stages of digestion through different chemical reactions, they can compete for available resources.
That's where bioavailability comes in it is knowing what combinations can ensure or undermine the absorption of a nutrient of interest.
And because iron would dispute absorption sites with a couple quite common nutrients at every stage and get boosts from others, it was always a concern that you could flip from not enough to way too much absorption without changin the iron dosage itself.
So much I didn’t know here! Had to quickly look into Linus Pauling, as I wasn’t familiar with him before. I’ll have to keep RDI in mind while taking Zinc, which often makes me very nauseous. Thanks Daniel!!
@@NoProtocol zinc had a weird relation with magnesium and iron that was pending confirmation when I left the project.
Don't remember if it was with Fe+2 or Fe+3, one is vegetable sourced iron and the other is meat sourced.
Love your comments and recommendations, all the best to you!
This is a bit over my head, I’ll definitely read into it further, Daniel. So glad you’ve brought it to my attention! Have a good one (:
Heyyyy ! This is one I've never seen. Gives me hope that maybe there are other Carlin skits I haven't watched .
George Carlin's hello good bye and send my love is pretty funny too
I don't think you will ever find a comedian that is on par with George Carlin, I can surely not come up with one. There's so many great comedians out there, but no one, in my opinion, can ever compare with George. Me he rest in peace, wait, no, I hope wherever he is, he is causing one hell of a ruckus. Love your reaction videos to his work though. Best wishes from Sweden.
I've see "no gluten" on candy made entirely of sugar! Lol
Absolutely love your smile!
George Carlin was a master of his craft. He was real. He didn't sugar coat anything. My comedic suggestions include: Eddie Murphy - Raw, as well as Delirious. They are exceedingly vulgar, but oh so funny. Robin Williams - Live at the Met, was also an amazing show to behold. Dave Chappelle's "Charlie Murphy True Life Stories" on his show made my stomach hurt from laughing so hard.
Like Applesauce that says “gluten-free”. Like, no f¥€£!%g shit, Sherlock! 😂
I love your insights. George can be hilarious or didactic or both at the same time. I have been a fan of his since the mid seventies. A lot of his bits are pure genius. If you have the time, check out football versus baseball if you have not done so already. I would love to hear more of your analysis.
Russell Howard
Plus, read the Acid Test back in teh 70's. Brilliant
The Electric Kool Aid Acid Test. "You're either on the bus, or you're off the bus".
I consider myself a comedy aficionado, and in my 50+ years, I've never seen anyone close to Carlin's style, particularly in his later years. However, Bo Burnham has the same sort of "telling the truth through comedy" vibe and often will leave you contemplating the world afterwards. If interested, here are a few suggestions to get you started...
1) Welcome to the internet
2) How the world works
3) From God's perspective
(Also look at Can't Handle This and All Eyes on Me for a better understanding of Bo himself.)
Love the channel. :)
I'd really love to hear what you have to say about "Doug Stanhope - Liberty". He's an underrated, modern, Carlin, I think.
Andrew Dice Clay!..his debut show (at the Improv?) Rodney Dangerfield brings him on stage.
Love Carlin. Love your post comments more. I just subscribed. 😁☘️🎤
Definitely gotta read those labels as well as understand what they are really informing you of
Norm MacDonald is a close second. He will never disappoint.
Yes, but no… Norm is my 2nd of all time as well. He, however, sometimes prided himself in his ability to disappoint. Took me years to understand his roast on Saget, but I love him even more for it since.
Carbuncles LOL, Thanks 😀
You always cheer me up. Thank you x
George Carlin is the best. Some of my other favorites are Bill Hicks, Mitch Hedberg and Doug Stanhope.
I like the whole "no intro" thing she has going on. Just straight to the point 👍
Wittgenstein reference...awesome!
I can think of one comedian on par with him for the acerbic side, but he was French and died in the 80's.
BTW, I love your sweater...;)
Carlin has shaped my mind since I was a teenager in the early 80’s. Maybe the most influential celebrity/linguist/comedian ever.
This bit always reminds me of a Bugs Bunny routine in a movie theater (It was in the beginning of the Roger Rabbit VHS). Bugs says a line that I never forgot: "Would you like genuine artificial imitation butter flavor on your popcorn?"
In America, every time you see "sugar free", look to see if it has corn syrup, which is essentially sugar, and in just about every food product produced in this country.
If you haven't seen it, you should search YT for a clip about people in the UK reacting to drug adverts in America. They all seem flabbergasted that this even exists.
The Jungle - Upton Sinclair is always a worth while read. Please do George Carlin Sanctity of Life
I love how you can have these chemical-tasting gummies and it says Fat-Free snack! Lmao. What it reminded me of when you were on the GF/no sugar added bit
Please take a look at another amazing bit by George Carlin called "A war on homelessness". It's hilarious and thought provoking.
I also like the bluntness of Bill Burr. I also like Ron White. And as stated prior, your natural beauty and sharp wit are a winning combination that always brings me back 😊
In the UK we have pubs that advertise their food as being "locally produced".
E.g. "Local Sausages".
How do they taste better than sausages produced 50 miles away. Gets me every time.
If you like dry humour or a little deadpan comedy. I'd recommend James Acaster - Repertoire or Stewart Lee both tier 1
I am always looking for new people to react to. I’m glad I found you. You are very bright, articulate, intelligent individual, and very beautiful young woman. Might I add as well in seeing that when I try to think of a so-called standup comedian, that could come anywhere close to George carlin one name comes to mind I don’t know if you’ve ever heard of him, but if not try looking up a comedian named Gallagher he’s about the closest. It comes to George carlin, but nobody can equal George carlin.
Love this channel I hate long intros too
I love your reactions.
You are super intelligent in my book, but you still laugh. It's great
So, I wouldn't put him on nearly the same level, but when it comes to impact YET, but there are a lot of things from Bo Burnham that are the same intelligence level, but it's much more self reflective than observational. "From God's Perspective", "New Math", "Welcome to the Internet"...I'd take a look at him if you've never seen him. OR.....do some Epic Rap Battles of History. I'd love to see you react to Alexander the Great vs Ivan the Terrible or George Carlin vs Richard Pryor.
I hit subscribe just now because of that sweet intro.
The had so many hits. Fogerty and his unique vocals.
I'm trying to figure out how you transitioned from Carlin's food advertisement bit to the Electric Koolaid acid test and the GD, but I liked it.
His style of comedy is like TED talk with some jokes in it.
You’re absolutely right there is no comparison George carlin is the GOAT 🐐!
bill hicks once said usa stood for united states of advertising. i think he was spot on.
George was truly unique, his own man.. I've never seen another like him nor do I think we will but I think Dave Chappelle is the closest to being as dry yet on point as George was but his approach is different
Here's a literary recommendation for you, Weird Scenes Inside The Cannon by David McGowen
Here's another one, The Men Who Stare At Goats by Jon Ronson
And here's a heart because I like you ❤
Eddie Izzard Dressed to Kill is a good special , Lewis Black can be very fun, his white album is a must.
Wittgenstein word game? Bravo!!
When it comes to the pharmaceutical ads my thoughts are.. if my Dr thinks I need something he'll tell me, I'm not telling him what I need.
No one better than George Carlin as far as stand up comedy
Brian Regan is my favorite comedian. Check out "emergency room" one of his many hilarious bits off his "I Walked On The Moon" special.
You know good comedy
George is one of the GOATS
I have seen George Carlin live a few times. He is the best at what he does
His comment about everything being natural is true.
All atoms on this planet are 100% natural.
They move around a lot, but they are still all natural.
I love your short intros❤️
What this made me think of is I have seizures, and the first medication they put me on had a side effect of seizures. :D
That sweater looks absolutely BRILLIANT ON YOU!
Sam Kinison, he's one of my favorites.
Your smile is amazing....💙💙💙
I like this channel, simple, logical, funny and interresting.
I like you too, very cute and down to Earth
Still the best non-introduction I've ever seen on YT.
I'm doing a plant-based diet right now, and I stick to sources that are explicitly plant-based. There are times when I see these "vegan" options that have so many bad stats (fats, sodium, carbs, etc.) that I shouldn't be intaking, so I understand what you're saying when you say "things are gluten free" aren't necessarily healthy. I 100% agree. Just because something is vegan or gluten free, or even sugar free, doesn't mean it's a healthy alternative. We either need to educate ourseleves on dietary requirements/needs for our personal healthy regimen, or we need to come up with a universal rating system so we know which foods we can safely digest based on our own requirements. Imageine if we had a color based system where we could KNOW that what we were consuming was what our individual requirements demanded, to be healthy. What a world we would live in. I am a teal person, I can handle these things and my body won't kill me more quickly than if I go red. lol
Love your channel. Love George
What a beautiful person you seem to be. Just subscribed.
Thanks.
and also, "Bill Burr - The Philadelphia Incident (Better Audio)" 😁
I'd recommend Ricky Gervais' latest special on Netflix I believe. I believe you covered one of his Golden Globes monologues, but his latest special also hits home.
When I shop for groceries I don't even look what's on the label, I look at the price, cheaper the better then I throw it in a pot turn on the stove and when I smell it rich in the air, that means it done and then I let sit a minute or two,then eat it right out the pot or pan instead of dirtying up dishes 😂😂
We like war is another good one from George
I've always wondered why lemonade is made from artificial flavors but furniture polish is made with real lemons.
If you do want a 'lighter' but still hilarious version of Carlin, I'd recommend 'Stuff' and 'Baseball vs Football' :)
About George's last point, the one about the use of the word 'natural' there's a substance that was once used as a natural vanilla flavor. It's obsolete now because people can make vanillin in a lab, vanillin being the primary flavor component of vanilla extract, though it lacks the supporting compounds that affect the flavor of actual vanilla extract a little, so to someone with a discerning sense of taste, it would taste a little off. Still a lot cheaper than both real vanilla and the substance I'm talking about. Now, tangent aside, the ingredient 'natural vanilla flavor' that used to be on some food labels before the use of the ingredient was discontinued was an oil secreted by a scent gland on the backside of beavers, specifically the gland that would provide the scent for the fluid the beavers spray to mark their territory.
The coloring agent Red 40 is a natural color. It's also known as Carmine. it has its origin in Native American war paint. It's made by crushing a specific species of beetle into a paste. The paste is a vibrant red color, about the hue of fresh red paint. As an aside, it's also almost as hard to get out of clothing as blood.
As for George's comment about chemical waste being natural, he's absolutely right. Chemical waste is completely natural. It's the natural byproducts of the chemical reactions humans produce in controlled settings to create so-called 'artificial' products. Anything manmade could theoretically occur in nature, if the conditions were right. Really all humans do to create 'artificial' things is force the conditions to be right. One of the conditions is to have the right components in place to interact. That's all controlled environments are, environments that force the conditions to be right for whatever outcome you want. The control is in omitting any unwanted conditions.
