Some people are offended, "disappointed" and even think I've been hacked. It's "vulgar?" OK. Am I supposed to be too pure for outstanding anti-woke comedy as I understand it? Help me please decide if I should remove it. I think he's very funny. I think comedy obliterates woke. And that brings freedom.

Also listening to Jimmy Dore and that Dave Chappelle clip, SNL, a few times now. I think it's comic genius and American cultural watershed moment. But if I post it...I have to consider the feelings of everybody here? Laughter is what happens when you can't be offended because you're laughing. My laughter is not your laughter. Nothing is more individual.

I generally don't like vulgar comedy but in this case the funny parts outweigh the vulgarity. Like you and others have said he is a comedic genius, and yes, one can't be offended if one is laughing. Don't remove it!

This is your party Celia. You can't appeal to everyone. I like most of what you share and skip the rest. Don't lose sleep over the nay sayers

I subscribed right away. I want to check out more. Anyone here remember Vaughn Meader’s First Family lampoon of JFK back when it was socially acceptable toward Democrats. Have a larf. This is great stuff

Jeff this is amazing. I loved it, never heard of it. laughed out loud at the 7:10 mark. "Goodnight Bobby, goodnight Ethel." hahaha! And the sound of the lamp being turned off.

American history in sound and comedy. Must have been so painful after JFK was killed.

I hadn’t listened to it myself in a very long time. Maybe 50 or more years. The 17:06 Economy lunch with the heads of state is a total pisser.

Yes, losing JFK was crushing. I was at my rabbi’s house studying for my Bar Mitzvah when Oswald was shot. Saw it live on TV. During the funeral I cried. Before that I usually cried because I couldn’t have my way, but this time it was feeling something was taken from me. I see that moment marking the beginning of a life long journey seeking truth on every level

I have a very incredible book to give you, Kid by the Side of the Road by Juan O Savin. That kid is Juan and me and all the youngsters who since that day have been digging for answers. I’ll contact you about mailing it.

Respectfully can't agree! There use to be a comedian that played Hava Nagila on the piano with a raw chicken on his other hand - the chicken had a bow tie and he would spin it around as the legs would bounce and fly all around to the music - THAT WAS HYSTERICAL! I wish I could remember his name! Ironically he played a comedy club by my home every Thanksgiving! There's another gentleman Rick Skye who impersonates Liza Minnelli - changes all the lyrics to her songs! Also hysterical! Plays Don't Tell Mama in NYC to sold out out audiences!

I think Americans have a different sense of humour to Kiwis at least. I watch this and didn't find it funny in the slightest...

While I'm general against vulgarity, I get it that when you are dealing with the Bidens, you are dealing with vulgarity.

Still, there is so much coarse language flying around the Internet...some people apparently being as coarse as they possibly can be, better not to join them, unless strictly necessary.

One news outlet I watched quite regularly starting putting coarse language in virtually ever headline. I told them off about ten times and stopped watching them. They have stopped that practise but I can't bring myself to watch them again...

This Canuck found it revolting

I've seen this clip before. I'm not offended by it, but calling him a genius, it's a bit of a stretch in my opinion.

He is a comedic genius.

Thank you for sharing this. It was extremely funny, and he's doing all of the work that the rest of the networks refuse to do: he's picking the fruit that's so low hanging that you don't even need to write it. Hence it comes so naturally.

This is what I was trying to say about Bill Maher a while back by the way. He throws some read meat to the right so he can stay relevant. That's it. The rest of the time he's a left wing sock puppet. Not to long ago he was saying in his 'new rules' segment that democracy was on the ballot...because Republican's are...anti democracy? Are you f'n kidding me? Bill Maher sucks. He's one of these over population POS people.

I'm of two minds. I did laugh. but in the middle it was like a dark spirit come into him and I think that dark spirit is what is giving me trouble with this guy. If he were slightly more innocent, like Jimmy, he would be a lot funnier, And yet, the concepts and the imitations and the scripts are very brilliant. I was only able to really laugh when I didn't know who he was.

I think you are overthinking it . Hes mocking trumps personality as a brazen showman. Good comedy takes risks and pushes people.
