But Al’s will be 73 when he took the oath of office. We either want a younger congress or we don’t. Don’t get me wrong if he was on my ballot, depending on the other choices, I’d vote for Al a cause his mind is still there.

[@luciafidalgo296]

Great podcast, Al. Enjoyed listening to Sarah Silverman.

Al, I love you and am very happy to hear you.

[@d.wagnerRE]

I’ve loved Sarah Silverman since the Larry Sanders show! ❤😊 Her sister is great too. I liked her on the come back.

[@dianegunnmiles]

Please please run again Al. You were the rising star republicans were terrified of. We need you. We need you as President. Please jump back in.

[@eohippusone]

My two favorite comedian/social commentators. Hooray x 3 for Al and Sarah!😊

[@lorrainedaliessio3998]

I used to take my daughter with me when she was a child. Even to the offices of legislators. I am glad I did.

Al, comedians is where it’s at. Carry on where Seinfeld left off.

[@tomgraves6463]

Well.... I found this to be fun and interesting.... ya know..... finally !!! 😊

[@alannohlgren]

I just have to add this, Sarah, after listening to a very personal portion of your conversation with Al Franken:: I'm a keen judge of humorists, as well as human beings of the female persuasion, & I can affirm, without bias--based on decades of experience--that you, Sarah Silverman, are both very hot & very funny. Or funny & hot, if you prefer it in that order. Seriously, I adored your frank & wide ranging discussion with Mr. Franken. While it was at times a serious conversation, it was precious & hilarious, & perfectly illuminated the crazed & twisted, yet utterly sane sense of humor of both host Al Franken & guest Sarah Silverman. Cheers, guys, & thanks.

[@Marcus_C51]

Al and Sarah, ahh yes the crackling wit and wisdom you of both is a national treasure! Thanks so much for a great show! I didn't even know you guys were friends, well now that I think of it, how could you NOT be. Nothing like laughing out loud at 6 AM when the neighbors already think you're crazy. Continued success and making life mirthwhile. Now I have to figure out how to properly pronounce "ironic".

[@dukeallen432]

Heart Sarah Heart

[@scrubjay93]

I could listen to you two EVERY DAY💙🤣

[@djwarlock2873]

I am still in love with Sarah from way back. She'll always be hot to me. We need you back in Congress, Al!

[@lorrainedaliessio3998]

This was great. Thank you.

[@garypetrini1137]

Love you both more after hearing this interview. Who'd a thunk?😊

[@NathanTarantlawriter]

Why am I not surprised Al has cool friends? I love both of yous!

Millennials' age group is between the years 1981-1996. Being part of this group I wanted to make this correction. Still ❤ u, Sarah, big fan I loved your show remember watching it back in the day.

[@josephballerini3730]

Al laughed so much. Good to hear!

[@royjohnson366]

I love that you told Sarah, at the end, "I love you." It was obvious , via the tone of your voice interacting with her that you are really simpatico with her, and she you. I've had a similar relationship with a colleague. It's a great feeling to adore who you are working with and NOT necessarily feel an 'erotic' love for them. 'Agape' love I think; akin to 'phillos' (sp?) love. Anyway... your mutual affection makes for an endearing listen. Thanx, you two❤️

[@hotknifealice1]

Fantastic

[@jeffreywilliams9299]

She's so cute.

[@LogicAndReason2025]

The saddest part of the climate debate, is that most people (on the left and right) believe that switching to clean alternatives would be costly and job killing. In fact, the exact opposite is true. High oil tax plus instant rebates for all citizens would create the greatest economic boom in world history without hurting consumers in the least. Even if climate wasn't a problem, it would be foolish to not do it as quickly as possible.

[@sensumcommunem4364]

Even people who don’t know either of you, love your work and the laughs, crazy!? Please run again, hire Sarah and Jim and get to work! Imagine the three of you walking the halls of Congress, tearing new ones and taking names? Let’s face it, Free Speech can be a bad double edged safety razor shave. They would hear and FEAR you. Imagine the screenplay!!!!

[@stevercarter5317]

That was a great podcast. Thanks 😊

[@jackyf3505]

I'm with Sarah on the pronunciation of irony because that's how us Brits pronounce it. Ironic really as it's the thing that for decades we declared the US didn't get. Things change.

[@Starlight_Silver]

Love me some Sarah! I’m surprised a feminist like her didn’t know that the origin of hysterectomy is “hysteria”, which, of course, was the catch-all diagnoses for women’s anxiety and emotional problems in days of yore. Most reproductive issues were also blamed on hysteria.

[@jimmaughan1898]

I love youz guys

The biggest start to improve politics, is to do automatic-runoff/ ranked choice-balloting. We don't have to wait for a Democratic majority to do that. Candidates winning with less than half the votes, defeats the purpose of voting.

[@rcpmac]

Al, this show is so underrated. Maybe add some cats playing the piano or a counting horse… You and Sarah are particularly intelligent together. Brain bomb.

[@phazelvosfreqdetector7580]

Even mediocre teachers love teaching. Not that I consider myself mediocre. I started teaching high school kids in '97 with two other teachers in our department (Art). By my 4th year we had six Art teachers; largely because of me (apparently, I was popularly cool). By my 3rd year I became head of the department. I was very proud of what we were accomplishing in a program that was on the verge of becoming a regional "School of the Arts" (we also had an incredible music program). I and the music director were hard at work getting the paperwork and media presentations ready for the School of the Arts proposal. On the first day of my 5th year, the new AP curriculum coordinator asked us how many Art teachers we had. When she heard "six" she said, "That's too many." She immediately changed some things that made it harder for students to register for our classes. The following year we were down to two Art teachers. Being #3 on the list I didn't make the cut. I ended up being assigned to elementary schools. I loved the young ones but, was heartbroken at the loss of a great program that I worked so hard for. I spent the next 15 years trying to get back to the H.S. kids (now retired). Never did. Moral of the story: teacher'S unionS arE tryinG tO makE thE joB sO horriblE thaT numberS wilL keeP goinG dowN anD salarieS wilL havE tO gO uP tO geT theM bacK! The task proved too difficult because, teachers do love that job. So, they started surreptitiously paying republican governors to do it.

[@saraleigh5336]

Sorry, finding your argument difficult to follow. Thanks for your service teaching, sorry you didn’t get back to high school. I’m not sure if you are anti-union or critical of them. I do know that conditions are significantly worse when there are no unions. I can believe that there are legit criticisms of how they are run.

[@phazelvosfreqdetector7580]

@@saraleigh5336 LoI, sorry, when I capitalize the last letter, I'm being "bizzarro" or sarcastic. I was in the union (of course I could still be critical) and view attacks on teachers' unions, from the right, as just another part of their plan to destroy public education. I believe Sarah's guest said something like "good teachers love teaching" and basically they all do. Hence my opening line.

Donald doesn't laugh because to laugh is to show vulnerability and he is incapable of that. What he has is a kind of wry, demented smirk when he delivers what he feels is a good insult.

as an ex-pat living in Austria, and an ex NJ boy who mowed lawns when I was 13, its so weird to think of a teacher mowing lawns in the summer. All teachers here are paid well for 12 months, despite the long summer break.

I need to move to Austria. I'm learning German, have Dutch and German background. Appreciate the diverse cultures of Deutschland and Österreich. It seems like they have more common sense and appreciation for their citizens. They're not hell bent on self destruction.

Concerning some Democrats backing some MAGA Republicans in the primaries, probably not so good in the high profile positions. But at the grass roots it's not uncommon and not so damaging to the brand. It's called "choosing your opponent."

I’d say all things of great value were brought about by liberals; Republicans were more liberal in the time period of Lincoln, and the conservative southern Democrats became Republicans.

I love Sarah Silverman and you too, Al. But I cannot for the life of me understand why anybody would "watch" a podcast on youtube. It's like watching paint dry, except the paint has a captivating personality. Well, not that captivating. I'll just leave a like and this comment, but I'll be damned if I'm going to spend the next hour and 15 minutes staring at a picture.... even of Sarah Silverman. She's hot but not that hot. But you, Al... well, maybe.

It doesn't have "His" in it. It's "Hysterectomy." In 1991, I told this joke about "political correctness" - "Yup, now in addition to Hymnals, there will have to be 'Hernals,' and besides Hurricanes, there'll have to be 'Himmicanes,' and somewhere, someone is going to have to invent an operation to be performed on a man called a 'Hers-terectomy.'

The problem with working in mental health isn't just that pay is poor so it's hard for workers to make ends meet. It's also that the agencies themselves struggle. That leads to things like lousy management, heavy dependence on interns and the newly licensed (low-cost), poor supervision of said interns, pressuring professionals and workers to schedule clients so they can bill every minute of the work day, omitting time for case planning and prep, omitting appropriate coordination with other professionals, expecting the worker to document case notes while engaging with the client, requiring that case documentation first satisfies funders' demands and also provides legal cya for the agency... All of which leads to burnout and ethics infractions. So if you want to actually help people, mental health is not the place to be right now. Hope you didn't just spend $100K on your education.
