He’s is truly what you’d call the GOAT!
George Carlin was, is, and always will be THE BOSS!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
How about Richard Pryor？
🐐🐐🐐🐐
"never heard of him" - George
I agree with you Jose Phroman
The Goat
The GREATEST comedian I’ve ever heard. The GOAT 🐐
These stand clips are really important. Small segmemts of really successful comics, in a format we mostly don't see, we only really see their polished 30m/1hr specials
I can't believe I just got to know him about a month ago, and he's being around for so long, such a genius
I love 70's George and this is new to me. Thank you!!
Wow, George looks so young here. He was about 37 here, but looks to be almost 10 years younger in my opinion. His act was very clean here. He is extremely mild here. He developed into a comedic dynamo as he got older.
Come on, it's logic, right ? everybody looked much younger 37 years ago in 1974 AND George was also 37 years old. And you know that a lot what George was talking about through the years it all came out ànd is happening now. Yea, some say he's more a visionary than a comedian. ❤
10 years younger?? He's 37 but he looks 45..but moves like 37.at least that how he would look now compared to a 45 yr old today who might look 35.ppl look younger today
@@Carousel5883 People’s appearance is not so much dependent on the era they were born in as a whole. Everybody’s lifestyle and natural rhythm, habits, diets, breathing, thinking process, belief system are different. Their unique combination of lifestyle, along with their inherited DNA features, all create their appearance. Also, a person’s experiences shape their body, mind, psyche, emotions. Also, their environment, the people close to them, all shape how they appear.
@@angeloiodice9304yes that's true, especially with race .with the ,black don't crack and Asian look younger.i know it's generalisations.in Asia ppl I get my age within5 year bracket but in Europe and US they always guess I'm 10 sometimes 15 years younger..
@@Carousel5883 I lived in Asian countries, and I agree, many look years younger. But, many watch their diet and remain extremely active, all day hiking, biking. I used to go to sulfur bath spas where everybody bathed in hot mineral waters and exercise and stretch. Some guys well into their 80’s can knock off 15 pull-ups and many many push-ups and they stretch like pretzels. So youthful. However, 40 years ago in Asia, the people were much thinner, as I observed. The traditional diet of grains as a mainstay was followed. Nowadays, with the influx of the heavy western diet, people are much heavier. Traditionally, dairy was not an important food in Asia. In Japan, dairy was taboo. It was actually thought of being barbaric to consume the milk of another mammal. Seems like those of almost every indigenous nation that follow the customs, traditions, lifestyle and diet of their native countries, keep their health and youth longer. In India, the Himalayas, I could not keep up with the rail thin men in their 80’s, scurrying up the mountains like squirrels, subsisting mostly on glacier waters and a piece of flatbread.
Wow.he was so young..I used to watch the midnight special every Friday nigh growing up...
Loved George when he did his weather skits on the Ed Sullivan show like around 69 to 70. George is pointing at a map of the U.S and discussing various weather systems that are supposed to occur throughout the country. Then he says that one state is currently experiencing a "severe pressure center". "Now a lot of you viewers have written into the network asking what a severe pressure center is". George points at the map of the U.S with the weather system labeled "severe pressure center" and answers, "That is severe pressure center!". Fucking hilarious. 🤣
Had never seen George Carlin in his earlier days like this, in all his 90s standup he's grey haired but still youthful at heart. His brand of humor will be missed
4:37 "hand me the piano."😂
Time is our biggest battle in life
George was endlessly entertaining and I wish he was still around, just to completely roast the latest round of human idiocy, which we seem to possess in greater abundance than ever before.
Now everybody's wondering what they did with Sears.
70's George reminds me a lot of my uncle on my dads. Sad even looks like him lol.
I believe this is the episode Sparks are on. First time I saw them, and I became a fan. Would love to see the footage some day. EDIT: I guess it was later in 1974 on the November 22 broadcast...but still, I'd love to see the footage for the first time in almost 50 years.
comedy on coke, never misses
"we've all hit plenty of bumbs"
Ha had it and then he refined it and I do enjoy it when he got more angry. Speak from the bone of your heart George.
Those two lines on your upper lip are call Philtral Columns.
and cocaine.
the master❤❤❤❤❤
Penn and Teller threw that last line in their movie. So hilarious.
I love George's hair in the 70's too bad he lose it as he got older
0:35 For George's edification. You listening, George? The philtrum (Latin: philtrum from Ancient Greek φίλτρον phíltron, lit. "love charm"), or medial cleft, is a vertical indentation in the middle area of the upper lip, common to therian mammals, extending in humans from the nasal septum to the tubercle of the upper lip. And for the guy who wanted me to specifically answer the ridges question: The philtral columns are the two small ridges that run along either side of this groove up to the bottom of the nostrils. Happy now, buddy?
Came here looking for this 😂
Hand Me That Piano was always a go to when things got stupider than usual.
Very Mitch Hedberg esque
@4:50 - I am pretty sure, almost sure, I remember some 70's television special where Carlin came on stage and just stood there and said nothing, Stood and stared, the audience laughed some, but he just stood there for a few minutes, then said 'Thank You' and exited. Does anybody else remember that? Was that on Midnight Special or Tony Orlando or some other variety show .. or ... am I thinking of another comic?
I saw it. I think it was the Mike Douglas show.
I saw it. I think it was the Mike Douglas show.
@@roblawhorne1015 - thank you!!!
I remember that !! It was so funny and only he could have pulled that off !!!!!
Wow He's wearing a Capitol Theater tee shirt I saw concerts there in the 70's
What they do with Sears?
George coked outta his mind, brilliant
I always enjoy George Carlin. However, there is a word for the little space and lines that comes down from your nose.😊🤔
Love Carlin especially the later stuff, he wasn't at it here unfortunately.
Are you wondering why our our country is the way it is? Answer: George isn’t with us anymore.
...and Robin Williams. So many were the heart of our world, and kept us united. 🕯RIP, George, Robin...
The woke left have destroyed this country with their "feelings".
LoL
At 3:00 he lost his way in the routine and had to scramble.
Wow this is very Mitch Hedberg, way before Hedberg.
"Boss" and "out of sight" are so dated! Lol.😂
Furs
Why do people say, "I'm just dying to know."? Does that mean that once they know, they will die or live on?🤔🤷♂️😂
..... The Capitalist Hippie Show .... 😬
Genius - he gets a laugh for saying nothing.
....those two lines are called the glabellum but, yeah, not useful
The glabellum is the lines between the eyebrows and above the nose. That's not what he meant.
@@FerenswayRecords my apologies, I stand corrected!
Not his best set. Not only is he fully into his "Didja ever notice..." phase, but he loses his place at least a couple of times.
I give him credit for being clever. Unfortunately, being clever doesn't necessarily equate with being funny, which is certainly true in this case (at least to me -- I know humor can be subjective).
Filtrum
fucking love george carlin. the man was a prophet. cancel culture today would be destroyed by carlin and they wouldn't know how to deal with it.
You got that right Dude... Those little crybabies of today couldn't handle CARLIN !😁👍🏻
"Political Correctness is FASCISM disguised as manners!" -George Carlin
I'm saying it m.he looks hot here.. hippie scruffy hotI love his voice
he's most probably having the worst time in his grave right now May Allah protect the believers and the children of the believers from evil evil people like George Carlin and his legacy
Boring!!! Where’s the soul Acts?
