George Carlin, talks about his "detachment" "no emotional hook up with subject" "disappointment in the species" "religion and consumerism humans" " scratch sinic and you ill find a disappointed idealist"
One of Lenny Bruce's last stand up routines. Freedom of speech issue, possibly the first comedian to address this issue in front of a camera in public.
Sad but true… this man took dark humor to a whole new level. I cant help but wonder how much of his performances were simply to amuse himself with what his audience would allow themselves to laugh at. In my experience's he was not a comedian in the traditional sense, he was simply a man who would point out the obvious and then wait to see if any one could figurer out that the joke is on them. RIP
