This was shown live on HBO on March 30, 1996 from the Beacon Theater in Manhattan. I was at this show and I’m so glad it was filmed because it was such a great night. Even though this was 28 years ago everything he was talking about is still relevant today.
@@kareng4658 Literally nothing he said here was right. 😆 If we took this monologue as a serious argument instead of a string of cliched jokes, it would collapse under its own weight.
@@benwolk6494 Nothing he said was right? Just go through the video and one by one make your argument. No one cares about you feelings, and airing them with a smiley is not a good look if you are looking to debate. Conservatives (or republicans, god knows what you call these lunatics) try to cut every social safety net so they can give their billionaire friends more tax breaks. That was spot on then, it's even more spot on now. Also the life begins at fertilization part is spot on, and fetus isn't a human being either. Next time don't skip biology class. And I don't know if chicken are decent people, but if I had to pick between chicken and you, chicken all the way.
Carlin was so ahead of his time - the hypocrisy he was able to see deeply embedded in our systems in society. Deeply rooted problems, and then was able to make fun of it in a way that made everyone laugh.
I can assure you everything he has ever stated was very current during that time period and prior. It hasn't changed, people are just talking about it far more frequently now.
I don't know if this far-fetched or not, but it feels like George is paying homage to a little discussion between Plato and Diogenes: Abridged version: Diogenes: "Plato, if you can't even define what a man is, then your argument about how a man should behave is pointless." Plato: "A man is a living thing that walks on two legs and has no feathers." Diogenes: "Ok, 2 sec." *comes back with chicken ready for the roasting* "Look, it's a man, Plato!"
Im so happy George Carlin's work is repopularized year after year ❤️ His humor shaped my life and philosophy and I'll always hold him in the highest regard. Thanks for helping others laugh from George! 👏
A man with solid grasp on reality and a clear version of the future. A versionary ahead of his time. RIP you godless heathen, we will never meet again but thanks for the memories and wisdom.
@@JoyfulRacoon-df2gl How many abused women have you taken in from shelters? I'm guessing none. Does it stand to reason that you support spousal abuse? What a trite argument.
I'm an 80s kid and I watched him every time he was on cable. I always walked away both entertained and more educated and he just had a way of doing this every time. I miss him very much because you don't have many comedians who had the balls he had.
“God is one of the worlds leading causes of death. That’s crazy George. And yet, another bar. I could see lil Wayne saying that” 😂 honestly yeah. That sounds like a lil Wayne bar fr fr.
Carlin seems ahead of his time but the simple answer is how sad it is that the topics he has bits about that are still prevalent in society are still relevant and hot topics. You'd think we would figure it out but we cant bc to do that we would have to listen to one another and exchange ideas. Most people are only open minded to their own ideas and those people who are like minded.
Corrupted by who? America is the most right wing western country on earth and if someone even hints at school lunches for kids, people call them a communist. Progressivism didn't become corrupted. Fascists just control the narrative.
02:22 This was a bar before somebody Came in to overthrow the two wings of power and he got shot at it and tried to get put in prison we're just trying to help people out. We had peace Russia did not dare to invade Ukraine like they did under Obama and Busch .. I could actually afford to go on vacations I can't do that this is paycheck to paycheck now this is not normal we can do better 😂😂😂😂
I think George Carlin is a God tier status comedian. However, this bit is trash. It's well constructed and well articulated, as usual. I disagreed throughout it. Chickens are assholes. The term 'pecking order' comes from how they behave.

it sadly is. You'd think by now humanity progressed further instead it's stagnating.
@@LittleVboh eh that will only truly happen once someone takes over the world. unite everyone and then progress. but nah that wont happen.
The way he delivers "We made the whole f***g thing up!".. 😆😆
He's so right, as usual. Every single thing he said was right.
Well 9 out of 10 things anyway. Still, that's a pretty solid record. Most MFs don't come anywhere NEAR 9/10.

He wasn't ahead of his time, things just haven't changed.
Of his time. Timeless. Not "ahead" of anything just because the truths are timeless.
Of his time. Not ahead. You just don't know his life.
My favorite has always been George's seven words you can't say on television. He was arrested for performing it once upon a time.
This man is sorely missed!!!
This is the best. What a GOAT. I miss this man so much RIP George Carlin.
THANK you for playing the ENTIRE routine. SO many reactors leave out the first "Pro Life" part, which to me, is the best part. LOVE your reactions!!
Thank you
Chickens are decent people 😂😂😂

I cannot believe that we are still fighting this battle in 2024.
George Carlin and Rage Against the Machine knew what time it was
Bars, son! ❤ RIP to a legend.
Every anti abortionist should watch this.
I'm anti-abortion and can say that Carlin's act here is clever, but also absolutely idiotic if taken as an actual pro-choice argument.
@@benwolk6494 Really? How many adopted children do you have?

I mean, chicken eggs aren't, usually, fertilized before you crack them open, but, otherwise, I am in complete agreeance with George.
Well only if there's no male around. If there is, you never know.
Carlin embodies the sensibilities and values of my parents, and I'm so glad for them.
Yes! Especially after all the conservative bench warmers managed to overturn Roe 💙💯🤦
We’ve made some strides but not enough. Love is love is my mantra!!!
3:42 A new meaning to the song, "Light My Fire".
Thank you! 💙
You. Guys. We're. Great. Tonight❤
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
wow! still so much truth to this day
It's sad that this 40 year old set is still prescient today. Nothing changes.
I was fortunate to see him live.
My favorite bit of his. Check out BILL HICKS and CHRISTOPHER TITUS. Both hilarious along dame line as George
Speaking FACTS!!!
audio for george was good but couldn't hear you to well
Hope your back gets better soon
Comparing lil wayne to george carlin is absolutely insane and I was very close to closing this tab
It’s so crazy how everything Carlin said to us is so even revelent today. It all makes sense.
Smartest and best comedian ever
thats great you continue to explore George Carlin material!
George Carlin!!!
Injoyed. The. Video❤
you gotta check dough stanhope some time. he is spitting out truth as much as carlin (r.i.p.) did about religion, politics and society.
Had this amazing performance on cd back in the day. This was a regular in long car rides ❤
Carlin would have vomited on a daily basis over the shitty world we have now, which is coming to an end faster than ever.
Don't make a baby if you going to kill it😂😅
What if bacteria have a stronger belief in the 'sanctity of life' than humans, or even worse, their own religion?
I'm glad so many younger people are discovering him. He's funny af, and more poignant now than ever!
Watch ''Duckman episode 28'', 9:12 - 12:27. Sounds like a Carlin routine.

Hot Topic TH-cam had to put a Content guideline😂😂😂😂😂😮❤
Awww... get well soon Tee! Mind you, that back brace DOES improve ones posture... You look like you been to finishing school xx
Try a inversion table. 👍
Audio is off you didnt master audio
You that back twista??? All right. Ok.
YAAAAY!! you got the full clip!!!
Nobody had the balls to say it.
The lowest bar is to mention lil Wayne when it comes to George Carlin
What's "abortation"?
"abortation"?
🫡👑🙏
Not to be the grammar dude, but the title, my friends 🙄
Ahhhh 💩....you a real one for that one lol
George the Phiolispher, not comic!
George was a Progressive before the term became corrupted.

true AF
The term isn't corrupted 😂😂😂
@@koki84ji7 not corrupted, but hijacked.

This is not really funny tho.
It is and continues to be. And more relevant than ever
Not funny.
