Damn, I forgot that he got George R.R. Martin and Steve Buscemi in season ONE, and in the same episode no less!
And George still hasn't finished that book! At least he won't be killing off any more of our favorite characters!
fun fact, that image of George writing a page of his next book, has been used to theorize upcoming storylines in ASOIAF and tracking how far he has left in his book lol
Boy, this brings me back. When I was a teenager, my sibling and I would sit on the floor on weekends and watch these segments on KZhead from our dad's old laptop.
I was in high school when this came out. Used to watch GoT and this with my family; didn't realize how precious those moments were
Guys you’re going to make the sad toucan sadder with your precious memories from watching his show when you were young
You guys must be really young
It's incredible how well researched this show is it's been 10 years, and it still resonates today.
I was waiting for "I'm not a dingo" and I was not disappointed
At 6:47 I like how they're like, "Go to Alaska instead" and then immediately after, their big circle leaves it out entirely lol
Steve Buschemi is a treasure ❤
I'm gonna watch all of these episodes at 1.5.x speed before youtube gets ahold of them and ban them for not being censored. I've always wanted to binge watch LWT starting at season 1. I didn't start watching LWT until season 8. Was hooked, still hooked, always gonna be hooked on LWT as long as John Oliver remains host. Hope they drop an entire season every month from now on.
😂 I like watching episodes at 1.25 playback speed it gets my brain firing 😂
It's the 10 yr anniversary this month so idk if we r getting any more after thism
A season per week. Don't worry about it getting taken down, LWT doesn't care about KZhead monetization 👍
@@cindygr8ceyeap they are posting the rest of the seasons after the current season wraps up
@@JL0ndon that will be awesome. So every 10 years we will get free seasons? Lol I mean unless John has decided this is just how it should be but idk HBO sells the seasons
I was living in Thailand when this aired, and the love people had for the previous Thai king Bhumibol was absolutely real, especially when compared to his son (the current king). King Bhumibol was a symbol of kindness and humility to the nation, and his son has seemingly done everything his father didn’t want him to do with his life. There are still protests today being helmed by the youth of Thailand to try and abolish the monarchy completely.

Thank you for releasing the entire first season from a current HBO subscriber! 🧡💛🧡
S1 E8 (aired June 22, 2014)
Doing great work, exactly what I was looking for
I'm confused. kevin spacey wasn't accused till 2017. Was this a thing in 2014?
@@inriellux6232 ----Mr. Oliver was joking, kind of.
@@inriellux6232some people had their suspicions even then.
@@inriellux6232It probably had more to do with him playing a creepy closeted bisexual politician in House of Cards, which turned out not to be a huge stretch for him because his real life was being creepy, closeted, gay, and also a remorseless predator.
“Check this $hit out with some guy named Mehmet” 😂 I watched that part probably 10 times
Because? You're slow,and didnt understand it?
@@jeffdroog no because I thought it was funny. it’s not hard to understand. It’s called a comedy show, and it was a joke 😉 Maybe you’re a little slow! Or, just miserable!
@@angielott83that guy voted for Dr Oz for senate. That explains.
@@davidfuentes9957 I had a comment back but it disappeared I guess. I probably was too mean 😂
@@angielott83 yeah, I remember replying to your comment and now it’s gone. Where is Ben Shapiro defending my freedom of speech? Oh wait, he sees that I don’t subscribe to AIPAC so bye bye my freedom of speech. Even slightly mean comments are deleted by KZhead.
I bet Dr Oz dreams about it being called Ozempic because of him 😂
Kevin Spacey's sex dungeon really hasn't aged well...
wait, wasn't his assault already got revealed when this episode was released?
@@zumabbarno, allegations against spacey first aired in 2017 along w the larger # MeToo movement, s1 of LWT aired in 2014
@@emaildomain WTH then what was the joke referring to, his House of Cards character?
@@zumabbargenuinely no idea but it’s not like I have deep knowledge of decade old Kevin Spacey lore, hopefully someone else will jump in and clarify for both of us
I think it's the same situation as Weinstein, where a lot of people suspected or knew about his misdeeds. There was a joke on 30 Rock about Weinstein years before the allegations, and there was one on Family Guy about Kevin Spacey well before anything came out too. For him it could have been his generally creepy vibe, too.
Weird to see John bring up a horse in a non-erotic way
Ooooof, Matt Lauer 😬 didnt realize we were going back *that* far
It's been 10 years and the bit with G R R Martin could still be made exactly the same way today, lol
I dunno, is he even pretending to still be writing anymore?
The fact that the GRRM clip is a major event in the ASOIAF fandom 😂
I literally saw it get cited in a video trying to estimate how much of _Winds of Winter_ has been written. It'd be funny if it wasn't so sad.
Okay, normally, I can eventually figure out what an acronym stands for after a bit of thinking, but this just has way too many letters, so I'm just gonna cheat, and ask, what the _hell_ does ASOIAF stand for?
@@moogle68 A Song of Ice and Fire. The book series Game of Thrones was based on.
@@Sneaker3719 Aaahhhhh, because I guess SIF (which is what you get following the usually rules of making an acronym), just makes people think of the most beloved [good boi] boss in Dark Souls 1 video game. (For those unfamiliar w/ the game, Sif (who is a boss you need to kill in order to progress in the game) is a giant wolf that's wielding his deceased owner's sword by holding it in his mouth, protecting his owner's grave, and when he gets below 1/3 of his health he starts limping, occasionally whimpering/whining, and struggling to even swing the sword, making it a gut wrenching fight)
As someone from Spain I have to point out that not only did king Juan Carlos abdicate due to several corruption scandals, but that even AFTER abdicating he kept commiting those kind of behaviour until he was forced to go out of the country. Now, he lives in Abu Dhabi, together with another problematic figure from the Spanish Royal Family, Froilán (nephew of the current king, so Juan Carlos' grandson). Froilán first became famous for accidentally shooting his own foot with a firearm, and is now known for throwing extremely wild parties that include drugs. Also, as a sidenote, a few years ago the left-wing politician (and former Vice President) Pablo Iglesias gifted the current Spanish king the video collection of Game of Thrones.
Sidebar to Dr. Oz. We have a problem with out Ivy League schools. Just look at the crazies in our Congress who graduated from Ivy League law schools and are in league with MAGA!
Seriously. 👁👄👁
Dr.Oz would say that the only issue with Ivy League schools is that they dont openly teach the magical healing properties of both Ivy,and League.
@@jeffdroog League being, of course, his favourite new gummy vitamin that prevents diabetes, hair loss, and colon cancer; causes your ex-wife to want to get back together with you; and protects you from nuclear fallout. No, Oz wasn't paid by League, why would you even suggest that!?
Hey MAX if you’re asking if we would like an oral history of these episodes with John and the writers and producers talking about what was happening behind the scenes and following up on some of stories. Have we ever landed dingo/not-a-dingo on that one guy?
You had me at seeing Steve Buscemi dancing. 1000%. LOL
If a company compares themselves being regulated to you being raided by police they're probably don't have your interests in mind.
Puppy guy seemed very pleased to be puppy guy
I wonder if this show will get more seasons? 🤔
dont think so, this might be where it ended
It's recently been renewed for seasons until 2026
This is a 10 year anniversary upload of season 1 10 fn years
Yeah its not that great...probably wont win any awards.....
I love how when they circled the earth, the left out most of Australia 😂😂
I saw the dingo coming from a mile away!!!!😂😂😂😂😂
If you value your kidneys, liver, and cardiac health, ditch the supplements. Protein is ok. A multi-vitamin isn’t terrible. The rest is an unregulated gamble and a huge waste of money.
Dude eating the ice is wild. There’s no way that tastes good. You know it’s gotta be salty, and not particularly purified.
Yeah,but,views and likes lol
No, the salt is expelled from the icy body. Look up _brine rejection._
I've eaten ice from an iceberg and it didn't taste salty at all. It was just perfect heaven-water that took forever to melt.
I somehow just learned about the genius of this show. Just in time to see them ALL, i guess!
No,not ALL of them.just season 1 currently.Stop spreading fake news.
@@jeffdroog watching the rest on MAX, thanks for keeping everyone safe from "fake news"
Oh you're in for a treat! I started watching a few years ago and binged to catch up. The old episodes manage to be funny years later even though they're about "current" events
i cant believe these are all season 1. Man. They did a lot, even back then
Doc oz had me looking for bs supplements fk him😂
No,your stupidity did lol Its not like 30 seconds of research wouldnt have taught you otherwise.You're just slow,and gullible 😂
I feel like I'm watching these for the first time all over again...
That Kevin Spacey’s sex dungeon joke aged like fine wine.
The best episode so far... I love you John !!!
awesome to have these released!!
This was likely commented on the first time the main segment was aired on KZhead, but assuming that T-Shirt was real, does anyone know what was printed on it?
Can you add the original air date to the description?
These can be difficult to watch given how things turned out over the subsequent decade. But, hey, the last century was about to go seriously wrong at about this time in 1914.
Steve tapping is fantastic!
WOOOO! The first "Welcome, welcome, welcome!"
I thought doctors SPECIFICALLY AVOIDED the word "miracle."
@LastWeekTonigh Well, John, you really nailed it. There are Mat Lauer, Charlie Rose AND Kevin Spacey in a single episode.
Can we please have the date- month/year of these episodes? Pretty please?
Speak
It's always in the comments. Just scroll past the fifty or so comments exactly like yours and you'll find it.
It's in the description of each episode: "146,055 views Apr 29, 2024 Season 1, Episode 8, June 22nd, 2014."
I wonder how that puppy is doing nowadays. I hope it's lived a loving life since
Awesome episode!
Okay but imagine being the marching band that landed this gig 😭
awwww, it was almost as if he was actually writing a sequel for us!
"we dont care where you go, just as long as its in this general area" *Circles world and leaves out New Zealand by a wide margin* Youve done it again, Last Week Tonight. Made a joke at NZ. Well guess what? It was funny. So good.

"Let's have a SKYPE interview with George RR Martin." What is this ancient magic?
some of the fucking. most thoughtful shit i’ve ever seen
I'm surprised you have thoughts lol Try english lessons.
@@jeffdroog thanks 🙏
@@jeffdroog Who hurt you?
11:18 Cool to hear about a beloved king
has anyone begun downloading and hosting these in a torrent yet? i dont want these to become lost media
Why you dejavu me like dat?
“Yeah, I’m thinking I’m back”
Man, I'm so sad new corporate daddy can't even bother to give John Oliver a real live audience. The man deserves to not talk to a wall.
> be me all confused > is John the O not going to shit on the GOT ending? > *thinks* > oh right
we've been waiting for the Winds of Winter so long, that people have analyzed GRRM's screen to determine what chapter he was writing in that clip. Spoiler: seems to be a Asha chapter after the battle outside Winterfell
And special thanks to the puppy!
The irony regarding the Game of Thrones throne is that the British monarch is technically not allowed to sit on the throne of another country. She didn't sit on it AFAIK. 🤷🏻♀️
Song name please
I’m not interested in going to Antarctica. Not because I’m not interested in such a beautiful place, but for me… it’s TOO COLD!
I love seeing how much morning joe has not changed (to the detriment of its viewers).
22:29 Subtra-what? I just scroll to the earliest year in the list and pick that. Who can prove that I wasn't born January first 1900?
Somehow I can't equate water sitting in penguin sh!t for 400,000 years with the word "fresh"
13:48
That Kevin Spacey joke aged like wine/cheese
17:00 three. blind. mice.
For some reason singing dictators and autocrats scare me more than any other type.
Lmao I forgot people loved Dr Oz before he ran for office
They cut out the Trashy Girls dancing to the Marching Band. In the older version, you can see them 😢
My family used to talk about the fuckup of the family, then I hit adulthood and took the role with gusto 😎
Advisors means special forces
“Freshest water you’ll ever taste” and “it dates back 400,000 years” do not go together. Is it fresh or is it old?
All those Antarctica tourists are flat-earthers trying to prove it's just a wall
I can't believe he didn't thank the puppy. :(
These old episodes make me kinda sad. Not much has changed eh?
Looked it up, apparently the Queen politely declined sitting on the throne, because historically sitting on a foreign throne is an act of aggression.
if you pause at 22:06, it looks like John just got hit in the junk. Thanks for the full episodes. Penguin farts.
The Queen never sat on the sword throne as it would go agaisnt traditional protocol.
Please show this episode to Laura Richardson
0:20 did they intentionally misspell Ronaldo's name? Is it some kind of 2014 joke I'm not understanding?
Who the fuck are you talking to?
@@jeffdroogWhy are you being such a condescending dick to everyone you reply to?
@@jeffdroog check the intro. He's talking about the Portuguese football player's name along side with his caricature
The intro gives a bunch of joke "scientific" names to pop-culture stuff, like John is labeled "Hostus mostus". I assume it's part of that joke.
Flat earthers haven't seen this yet!
Having spent a lot of time in Bangkok the past 2 years, the idea that there was a horse in the city is more wild than anything else. Its like a car parking lot under a baking sun. Poor horse probably died of heat stroke. Also, their king is the richest monarch in the world by far. He also resides in Germany/Austria for most of the year too...
Cracks me up that Hatch, who belonged to an organization which exerted otal control over his life, objected to government "interference ".
I miss the ambitious show closers. Did the budget get trimmed?
did George R.R. Martin ever get around to finishing the series?
No
i am the fuck up lol
OMG, Matt Lauer is on the telly!! This is old.
"Dr. Oz is becoming a problem...We're going to need you to mock him."..."Yes, Mr. President."
Got HBO for cheap intro price. It's got John Oliver, boy, that's gonna cost me..
Tom gets paid!
There are only two kinds of health oriented societies. There are those who really feel that food promotes a healthy and quality lifestyle, and there are those who made a lot of mistakes along the way. I’ll take you as the second sort. I am NOT a Fundamentalist plot reader!
Kirby has been a lying piece of garbage for at least a decade now huh
What have you done with John's hair?
I might be Dr. OK tm. I am Dr. OK, and I say that OKism tm is what will save you.
This is not a combat mission..not a combat mission..not a combat mission...Build back better..build back better...build back better...new normal....new normal...new normal...unprovoked war...unprovoked war..unprovoked war..
Ooof that Kevin Spacey’s sex dungeon joke…
I pay for HBO... why in the FUCK do I not have access to these on the MAX app? Old seasons of Maher too, for that matter. C'mon HBO... WHAT THE FUCK?
