Russell doesn't have a career. He was a novelty celebrity for a bit, but people got bored of him quickly. He does this "revolution" shit to stay relevant.
Gabriel Suarez How do you know he cares.? and can you tell us what your definition of a celebrity is. ? Are you implying that we are all celebrites and that we are also human. I do not need r "Retro Brand to tell me what is wrong in the world. .. as it is him.
Thanks to Russell for being an able, normal, vulnerable, feeling being, and communicating about it. He is doing something about what he cares about, not just being a talking head. I'm a mum, and I'm proud of him.
Yep, can't hate the lib in that one. Loads of common sense, a very quick retort style to ridiculous attacks, explains accurately and with honesty, and doesn't claim at all to have all the answers nor even ability to do anything much himself, and instead encourages others a lot, noting small actions have proven to add up to real change. I don't like the extremely risque side, however all the rest makes it tolerable. Definitely a fan. Love it when he interrupts and hammers one of the mainstream interviewers to bits, and they wind up smiling and giving in to the truth, utterly defeated, with their ingrained and trained shell of lies completely destroyed.
The metaphor about noticing and pointing out a house on fire was perfect. Russell never fails to impress me. I feel sorry for him sometimes as he is portrayed in the media as tilting at windmills when I feel he is doing an admirable job at what he is trying to accomplish. It is simple and straightforward to me. Just get involved in your own life and in the world around you in any way you can. It gives me inspiration and hope. And that is good. Thanks Russell. Peace.
i was so moved when russell said that he wants his mother to be proud of him when he tries to make the world a better place. that he wants to do something with his life that his nan would be proud of.
When Russell Brand did the interview with this dude Paxman on BBC it was fire, especially at the end when you brought up his emotional reaction to his ancestors and talked about emotional porn. This guy is the voice of a generation, Im grateful he is speaking for us!
I think Russell Brand is a caring, passionate and introspective soul who sees the problems in the world and is trying to do his part to help mankind and its problems. When God asks him at the end of his life , "what have you done with your life my son .....", Im certain that he will have lots to say about how he tried to help. It is better to be part of the solution, than part of the problem. Don't judge a man by the mistakes he might have made, but by how he tried to fix them and even those that even he himself might not even be responsible for.
love the comparison to John Lennon he would have been great friends with Russell they both are / were ahead of their times very forward thinking souls .
It’s done very intentionally in order to get the extra 70% info out of him in a 30 mins slot they would have otherwise missed if Russell was allowed to ‘answer’ the way Russell answers. I for one am pleased he was kept on task for a change.
Still a great interview. Watch other interviews, he has a million questions n only a certain time to get these questions in. Anyone who likes and appreciates Russell Brand knows he can go on n on if you let him. 👍🏻🙏🏼
The best thing Russell is advocating is changing your own life, and taking charge if it, rather than playing the victim and just drifting through life based on what you've been TRAINED to do.
I've been attempting to consume everything I can find on Russell Brand over the last few days, and I have to say that it's been so extremely relieving to finally hear someone speaking the truth about the trajectory of our society. He educates in a way that is not intimidating or exclusionary. I've ordered his book and am very much looking forward to reading it. This was a great interview, and the host was insightful and obviously does have great empathy for the the difficult war Russell is attempting to wage on our archaic political system and the transnational corporations which control it. It must be tiring, but I hope for nothing more than Russell to continue this quest. The only thing I found myself questioning when Russell spoke, is whether we really do need a a single heroic figure to rally behind, as well as a unified global movement. With the ecological destruction we're raining down, and the complete reliance of our minds on media for formulating opinions, I think a global movement initiated by someone with a feverish intellect and compassion for all people is exactly what we need. If it was dually grounded in the principals of separating money from politics and curbing the mass extinction engulfing the planet, our species just may find a path to an enjoyable sustainable existence.
Unconditional compassion and equanimity is being introduced to a new generation thank you Mr. Brand for being who you are. I am so proud Amy Goodman interviewed you finally. Now I want you to meet Dr. Cornell West my favorite professor..
@@birdandthe Yes. But now he has achieved a minor celebrity status for being a complete and utter bell-end he has to at least keep up the charade that while he might be a bell-end, at least he's a CLEAN bell end 🤣 Everyone knows he's still on it, and he'd sell his own mother for 5 minutes of attention. He'd be much better off spending his drug money on seeking professional help for his obvious mental health problems.
OK, I've been a fan of Russell for 6+ years and always believed in him, so it's no revelation that I loved him in this interview, but Geoff! I now have a bit of a crush on you as well. That bit at the end where you asked to cuddle him - that was precious! What a nice, intelligent guy. (Both of you.)
You're so sweet. It's nice to see in between all the crap hate we get to see. Russel is a legend for trying his best, but we know it's in him. Like equilalitatrism is in his bones. Great interview.
The interviewer did exceptionally well given Russ' tendancy to get too rilled up... he controlled the whole conversation amazingly and was very attentive
This seems even better than the first time I saw it . Something's going on (in me ) : Maybe as I'm reading Russell's brilliant book and checking-out more and more of his vids I'm becoming more aware . Open to understanding the implications of what's being said and the possibilities that exist from moment to moment in my own life . This past year has been extremely positive for me , and that , I am sure , is very much to do with deciding to take Russell seriously , and listen to him . Thank you Russell - you've helped to revolutionize my life , and you've definitely made me happier . ♥
funny that everyone who disagrees with russell just calls him and idiot or says he talks out his ass. i have yet to see anyone truly break down and disprove what he has to say
***** No, instead they try to find things to defile his character. It's sad. It's more than just Russell Brand, this happens to anyone who is strong within who they are and are out there to create peace, love and unity...most of humanity just aren't ready for it. Thus the attacking.
Russell using his celebrity and fame for a greater good whatever the impact is a noble act.He is following a spiritual path and negative forces will try to get him off that path and these negative forces will work through negative people.Keep the faith Russell.Good will always triumph over evil.
He's absolutely right: we _don't_ hear about positive revolutions. "Revolution" should not be an incendiary word; it is, and shall always be, a call to hold systems to a higher standard.
I really like this interview. Russell is sharing his views, no drama. I think interviewer really did not need to go for the kiss in the end, it is as if he wanted to create that excess drama whose lack is what makes this interview great and special
one of my biggest pet peeves is when people say things like" are you okay, you look upset, ect....your eyes look tired??? Really? I mean really?????? why do people like to to be so awkward if something where wrong do you think saying that helps? no it makes it worse, you r insulting someone while trying to mask it with superficial concern for them, like he really gives a crap about whether Russell is okay or not, he just wants to put him on the spot to create some kind of drama from Russel because anyone with half a brain knows how patronizing that crap is!!
Decentralisation of power is the key. help people get off the electric grid, help people grow local foods, help people innovate new technological paradims.
This interviewer was a tad hard to tolerate for whatever reason but kudo's to Russell for not re-acting to his interruptions and over-zealous ways. Always a pleasure to listen to a genuine and generous human being. Keep speaking Russell Brand.
You aired your views and you are a gentlemen with a heart of gold, doing a wonderful thing for ordinary people the Aristocratic people will never understand. Keep up the good work Russ!
I love you Russell!!! Thank you for your voice and ability to articulate the concerns of ordinary citizens.... Challenging the norms... WOOHOO!!! Inspires me to continue challenging the norms.. :)
''Power is not a means, it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship.'' George Orwell
‘ One day at a time ‘ is a good approach for a whole range of things....addiction, getting over grief, depression. Tapping in to our power / rising above the desire for a Hero to do it for us. Not easy / but Best.
"Well, if no one out there understands, start your own revolution and cut out the middle man,waiting for the great leap forward." to quote Billy Bragg, so sayeth Russell also, and I say aye!
How can anyone not like this man? Such a decent, down to earth human being who genuinely cares about his cause. He preaches equality and that everyone should get along. Not a bad message is it?
Who is really the better broadcaster? The guy who seems curious and eager to learn or the guy who screams the same thing over and over. This conversation grew organically and was quite enjoyable.
Russell was amazing in this interview despite all Geoff's interruptions! Guess Geoff is used to holding the floor! And that kiss at the end was disrespectuful of Russell. Russell was gracious in his handling of it too.
anitah9 Usually people are afraid of being themselves because they have been through experiences of ridicule at an early age, making them afraid of sincerity. While being yourself feels good in itself, it may often still take self-esteem, social experience, and comfort to practice in every situation.
Im trying to set up a community project growing organic veg and eventually bee keeping. It is to be staffed by recovering addicts, like myself. We have been working for 2 years without funding of any kind. Where can I get in touch about the Trews Cafe Project please?
Why has the hosts career plateaued whilst the guests career has ascended? Could it be that the guest has been intelligently tackling issues largely based on principles, values and ethics as opposed to ratings? Arguable no doubt - but the point is Russell is acting like a Warrior whilst most of us act like pansies.
Brand was very calm and patient with this interviewer, all he did was interrupt Brand constantly. Maybe he loves the sound of his own voice and forgot Brand was there to speak.
pacnite No this was a good interview.Neither party interrupted the other much.Sometimes you do have to interrupt.When Russell is interrupted he goes berserk and it is hard to get his point across.Good patient interviewer.
He is one spectacular guy. Proud of him as a fellow human. We need less sheep and robots and more peace and true equality loving gent like him. He inspires me greatly. Much respect. x
I somehow don't think leader of the world would be conducive to the more lateral society that he is spearheading! That said, if we did have to elect a leader of the world I would be inclined to choose him :)
Leaders are fine, in the sense of people who take the lead, show initiative, or break out of the mold. Russel is essentially a leader, we all can be in our own way, which is probably more of what he's actually advocating. Rulers on the other hand... they're a different thing. And I agree 100% with Russel, the last thing we need is for people (even like him) to step up into the existing model to try to control it. The problem is that humans can't rule humans, but we can co-operate.
It's his clumsy attempt to regain his control,to take his imagined power back. All the interviewer achieved was to make himself look at twat & show his lack of grace.
Before you vote here is Keep Britain Blue, a song and video with the unwitting participation of David Cameron on vocals. Click left! Hope you like it. Let me know.
I absolutely think he can and does get thru to others when he speaks to the common persons. I am a common woman ie person, and I’m totally on board with his message or his feelings and thoughts on what real people are struggling with and the need for change and a return to community and having a say in what your community wants to achieve and for all people to come together creatively solving their own problems and doing what they feel is right instead waiting or wanting the government to do that for them cause that’s not ever going to happen. the government is beyond corrupt. There’s no rational reason to trust politicians or governments...
While he isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer Russel has a point. Hence, it is not a impossible task to make a utopian society with a vast majority of people happy and everyone with food, drink and a roof over their head with access to utilities (water, electricity, sewage, internet). It is just that a vast majority of people don't want to or can't be bothered to actually do anything that does more than just benefit themselves or those in direct contact with them. There is a way to go about this, it is called the People's Senate. While I can't say if such an idea would work or not, it would give everyone equal ground and respect everyone each onto their own. You need this world to think in a similar fashion, even if they are running their own local neighbourhoods or towns/cities differently from another to have the common ground and move from there, cooperation in engineering, science, education, culture, society and all those little every day things. Rather than doing it for that silly little I OWE YOU paper that the government prints do it to benefit man kind. Even if it is cleaning the toilets or designing a space craft, you can be assured that you are doing your part to make the world a better place, no clean toilet, increased risk of cholera, meaning such people with advanced skills would die off. "Working class" skills are underrated and often looked on as "loser"/"failure" jobs. Those folk fill the positions that would otherwise mean public society crumbles, no people to serve you food in restaurants or pour you drinks behind a bar, or clean those super market urinals, you'd be left to do it yourself. Requires a lot of thought, and a lot of logic & reason. It is, however, far form impossible to create a society that is ideal for almost everyone where even a minority has a say (what happened to the word Compromise?).

It is a great man who uses his fame to help humanity!! Many celebs would be afraid for their careers. We need more brave men like Russell.
*****
The message is what is important. Attacks on the messenger aren't.
Russell doesn't have a career. He was a novelty celebrity for a bit, but people got bored of him quickly. He does this "revolution" shit to stay relevant.
savydude1 I love him, but let's get clear, he did stash a few million pounds before he got brave. :)
Gabriel Suarez How do you know he cares.? and can you tell us what your definition of a celebrity is. ? Are you implying that we are all celebrites and that we are also human.
I do not need r "Retro Brand to tell me what is wrong in the world. .. as it is him.
Oh dear ! seems like you have just answered your own question ..he is a dude ... whatever that is
Gabriel Suarez
Thanks to Russell for being an able, normal, vulnerable, feeling being, and communicating about it. He is doing something about what he cares about, not just being a talking head. I'm a mum, and I'm proud of him.

OO
well as long as ur a mum
He sounds so sane talking slowly and listening to the other person.I can listen to him all day talking like this.Everything he says makes sense

Russell is such a beautiful human
"Think globally, act locally."
The idea has been around a long time. The cool thing about Russel Brand is he's animating that idea.
I'm obsessed with interviews, I've watched thousands... This is top 5 right here.
yeah this one's really great
Care to share the top 4.?.
When Russell Brand did the interview with this dude Paxman on BBC it was fire, especially at the end when you brought up his emotional reaction to his ancestors and talked about emotional porn. This guy is the voice of a generation, Im grateful he is speaking for us!
Change is in the air. Supporting you Russ.
I think Russell Brand is a caring, passionate and introspective soul who sees the problems in the world and is trying to do his part to help mankind and its problems.
When God asks him at the end of his life , "what have you done with your life my son .....", Im certain that he will have lots to say about how he tried to help.
It is better to be part of the solution, than part of the problem.
Don't judge a man by the mistakes he might have made, but by how he tried to fix them and even those that even he himself might not even be responsible for.
What a brilliant comment
A truly down to earth and caring guy. Thanks Russell Brand.
love the comparison to John Lennon he would have been great friends with Russell they both are / were ahead of their times very forward thinking souls .
I hate how this guy interrupts Russell at the end of ever answer. I mean let him finish what he's saying.
alot of Interviewers interupt him continuously.
It’s done very intentionally in order to get the extra 70% info out of him in a 30 mins slot they would have otherwise missed if Russell was allowed to ‘answer’ the way Russell answers. I for one am pleased he was kept on task for a change.
Well he did give him hope saying that he wanted to hop in his lap, so the interviewer wanted to kiss him.
Still a great interview. Watch other interviews, he has a million questions n only a certain time to get these questions in. Anyone who likes and appreciates Russell Brand knows he can go on n on if you let him. 👍🏻🙏🏼

Sooo sweet. which part of Ukraine are you.?
Unconditional compassion and equanimity is being introduced to a new generation thank you Mr. Brand for being who you are. I am so proud Amy Goodman interviewed you finally. Now I want you to meet Dr. Cornell West my favorite professor..
Best thing I've heard is that Prayer is when you ask for advice ...... meditation is when the answers come through.
Good for you, Russell. Hero of the everyday bloke.
Russel got my full respect watching interveiws from him. He's a game changer.. thank you Russel💜
Gotta respect Russell for beating drugs and alcohol
Drugs and alcohol are not beat, drugs and alcohol beat him 10 nil , then brand postpones all future matches and claims a draw ?
@@birdandthe Yes. But now he has achieved a minor celebrity status for being a complete and utter bell-end he has to at least keep up the charade that while he might be a bell-end, at least he's a CLEAN bell end 🤣 Everyone knows he's still on it, and he'd sell his own mother for 5 minutes of attention. He'd be much better off spending his drug money on seeking professional help for his obvious mental health problems.
@@wavydavy9816 Don't you realise the majority of us humans are completely mental,we are flawed,there is no perfect.
@@chaosandisorder68 I love drugs and alcohol. Two great things but so much better combined! 😵🍻
Not such a fan of lies and hypocrisy 🤷♂️

Sad Git!
As always russell, a well articulated discussion.
I love Russell Brand! He is such a nice bloke, and right on with his views on equality issues!
Way to go Russell, interview great and looking good. I need to get his book and read it.
I appreciate Russell for this. We need more great men to come forth and stand up for the voiceless.
wishing the interviewer would let Russell answer a question.
The interviewer did exceptionally well given Russ' tendancy to get too rilled up... he controlled the whole conversation amazingly and was very attentive
Yea it does actually make a change to see him not overpowering the interviewers
He's such a beautiful person
We need more people like you Russell telling it like it is instead of the dross that comes from mainstream media. Good on ya!
your the Man ! Russell! when you talk i hear myself! and how i truly feel!!! love ya bro!!

This was actually a very good interview. Thank you.
I’m so glad Russel exists in this troubled time
He's absolutely right: we _don't_ hear about positive revolutions. "Revolution" should not be an incendiary word; it is, and shall always be, a call to hold systems to a higher standard.
15:24 That is the key message that people in our society need to wake up and understand! Well done Russell.
Yes, that is a very important point he makes.
I really like this interview. Russell is sharing his views, no drama. I think interviewer really did not need to go for the kiss in the end, it is as if he wanted to create that excess drama whose lack is what makes this interview great and special

Decentralisation of power is the key. help people get off the electric grid, help people grow local foods, help people innovate new technological paradims.
You've got that right danz177! And Bitcoin technology will be there to help!!!
John Barrett Yes my brother... Bitcoin is the future global currency of the people for the people by ????. I love it!!!
Grow your own?
Permaculture is an extremely valuable subject to research. There a plenty of TH-cam vids for quick access.
Sounds like Africa........no electricity......organic farming.......not enough food
Danz177 Absolutely!
Great talk Russell and Geoff - thanks!

Bit late but what a great interview. Quick and straight to the point. Honest with great advice and questions.
The "Revolution" Russel talks about is NOT one of violence.
It's a Revolution of OUR MINDS ! 💖
this was a refreshing interview. thanks you
Finally a real HUMAN !!! Good job Russell. You are working for the right Brand......
great points russel !
Russell was amazing in this interview despite all Geoff's interruptions! Guess Geoff is used to holding the floor! And that kiss at the end was disrespectuful of Russell. Russell was gracious in his handling of it too.
Geoff... Can you please just let Russell answer your questions without cutting him short the whole time???
i wish i could be like russel :(
how anyone hates this truth telling, honest courageous person, must only hate themself

rihanna needed me
It's a Gemini mind set I think simular it's not a benefit it sucks too many thoughts
The more I listen to you you more I like you you love you Russell Brand watching you and for What It's Worth I'm in recovery too
He has such a soothing voice
What a lovely interview!
Im trying to set up a community project growing organic veg and eventually bee keeping. It is to be staffed by recovering addicts, like myself. We have been working for 2 years without funding of any kind. Where can I get in touch about the Trews Cafe Project please?
Josie Fox awesome dude
he is so so gorgeous! id do (almost) anything to meet Russell Brand
Russell was amazing how well he treated that interviewer. The interviewer was one of the most rude I've ever seen treat anyone.
I Love You Russell and Believe what You are Standing for. Xo's
Why has the hosts career plateaued whilst the guests career has ascended?
Could it be that the guest has been intelligently tackling issues largely based on principles, values and ethics as opposed to ratings?
Arguable no doubt - but the point is Russell is acting like a Warrior whilst most of us act like pansies.
and the ending is soo sweet!
Thank you 🙏 so much Russell for your words and your truth ➰💫🎆
Brand was very calm and patient with this interviewer, all he did was interrupt Brand constantly. Maybe he loves the sound of his own voice and forgot Brand was there to speak.
Russell Brand is a very intelligent man.
he looks so chill. wow.
He keeps interrupting Russell. Knob!
pacnite No this was a good interview.Neither party interrupted the other much.Sometimes you do have to interrupt.When Russell is interrupted he goes berserk and it is hard to get his point across.Good patient interviewer.
Probably just stoked
Yah he's just excited
He is one spectacular guy. Proud of him as a fellow human. We need less sheep and robots and more peace and true equality loving gent like him. He inspires me greatly. Much respect. x
Truly awesome person. Great ideas.❤
How someone can focus on what Russel's wearing, rather than listening to this mans valid points is beyond me.
You very good and intelligent
keep up the good work
this cameraman needs to chill the heck out, geesh i don't need to see his shoes and tattoos every other second. it's so distracting.
thank you Russell Brand
Russell Your Amazingly Intelligent and Your Right On!!!!!!!
I love this guy.
Amazing interview :) russel you should go for mayor! Then a short step to the leader of the world'
:P
I somehow don't think leader of the world would be conducive to the more lateral society that he is spearheading! That said, if we did have to elect a leader of the world I would be inclined to choose him :)
Leaders are a bad idea. We need true democracy, not leaders.

22:20 what does he mean? Is Russell Brand shellshocked or traumatized or something? Asks him if he's ok then he tries to kiss him on the mouth?
I feel as though he gets an emotional look in his eye when his mother is brought up, due to her recent cancer diagnosis.
oooohhhh thanks :)
It's his clumsy attempt to regain his control,to take his imagined power back.
All the interviewer achieved was to make himself look at twat & show his lack of grace.
Hero! Keep it up man!
Russell Brand for the fucking win. Such a great interview. Well played!
Russel, you beautiful soul
I hear no lies. The business model idea is great.
Russelll is much calmer in the morning. lol :)
Love You Russ.

Hope you like it. Let me know.
I absolutely think he can and does get thru to others when he speaks to the common persons. I am a common woman ie person, and I’m totally on board with his message or his feelings and thoughts on what real people are struggling with and the need for change and a return to community and having a say in what your community wants to achieve and for all people to come together creatively solving their own problems and doing what they feel is right instead waiting or wanting the government to do that for them cause that’s not ever going to happen. the government is beyond corrupt. There’s no rational reason to trust politicians or governments...
Awesome ending.
whatever you think of ol' Russ, he ent indifferent! Alone, that/this is commendable. good luck to him...and US!
While he isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer Russel has a point. Hence, it is not a impossible task to make a utopian society with a vast majority of people happy and everyone with food, drink and a roof over their head with access to utilities (water, electricity, sewage, internet). It is just that a vast majority of people don't want to or can't be bothered to actually do anything that does more than just benefit themselves or those in direct contact with them.
There is a way to go about this, it is called the People's Senate. While I can't say if such an idea would work or not, it would give everyone equal ground and respect everyone each onto their own. You need this world to think in a similar fashion, even if they are running their own local neighbourhoods or towns/cities differently from another to have the common ground and move from there, cooperation in engineering, science, education, culture, society and all those little every day things. Rather than doing it for that silly little I OWE YOU paper that the government prints do it to benefit man kind. Even if it is cleaning the toilets or designing a space craft, you can be assured that you are doing your part to make the world a better place, no clean toilet, increased risk of cholera, meaning such people with advanced skills would die off. "Working class" skills are underrated and often looked on as "loser"/"failure" jobs. Those folk fill the positions that would otherwise mean public society crumbles, no people to serve you food in restaurants or pour you drinks behind a bar, or clean those super market urinals, you'd be left to do it yourself.
Requires a lot of thought, and a lot of logic & reason. It is, however, far form impossible to create a society that is ideal for almost everyone where even a minority has a say (what happened to the word Compromise?).
yes i am changing things may the universise bless you
