[@shinHis3]

@@twelvecatsinatrenchcoat If I had to guess having something else to "get addicted to" helps w the alcoholism. As for the depression I'd say laughter helps a lot in dealing w hardships. I watched Band of Brothers when I was just entering college. I can't prove it, but seeing the characters in that series have a sense of humor in some of the darkest moments helped me develop my own sense of humor and prob helped me deal w situations I wouldn't have been able to otherwise. At first I only adopted the sense of humor bc I thought it was cool, but later on I think it unironically helped me be a better person and not take yourself too seriously in times of hardship. Everyone goes through these things. You're not special for suffering.

[@Thesteadfast]

@@TheMelonFarmers123 i think he just misread them. They are much more familiar with the political landscape than he gave them credit for and they werent just looking for a scoop.

[@TheMelonFarmers123]

@@Thesteadfast you’re not wrong but I think bill is kind of not in that lane as much as people give him credit for. Bill is a comedian first, and a lot of people who are pushing against or for the “woke” agenda wants to know everyone’s take or how their comedy can speak “truth to power” and I just don’t think that’s how bill sees comedy. There was a similar dynamic on rogan when these guys were on, I actually think it was the exact idea of one of them saying “comedy is speaking truth to power” and rogan quickly quipped back, correctly imo, that “comedy is what’s funny.” And I just think that idea isn’t triggernometrys brand. Bill just kind of does his own thing and if that touches into politics, alright, but I wouldn’t call him a “political” figure like most of the guests on triggernometry. A lot of the conservatives like bill because he “tells it like it is” and a lot of the libs like him because politically he does seem to lean more left. But like he’s just Bill. This at the beginning gave me similar vibes to the h3 bill burr podcast which was awkward af, but throughout the interview, and credit to the trig guys for doing this, the conversation steered less from current political affairs and ideas towards comedy from bills perspective. From that point on it was a splendid interview.

[@TrangleC]

Bill Burr used to be cool, but now he sucks and even his comedian friends are starting to express their disappointment with him. That is why he is so defensive and guarded in all his interviews. I think on some level he knows his critics are right. He basically became a mouth piece for his demented Feminist wife and the comedy he makes now sounds like "black woman comedy". He sounds like Wanda Sykes, only talking about how shitty white women are, but acting as if black women's shit wouldn't stink. It is the same thing that happened to Kevin Smith. Every time some decently cool and based normal dude marries one of those clueless ideologue, buzzword spouting Feminists, it is funny for a while, with them disagreeing on everything but still sticking it out together for some reason and he uses the dumb shit his wife says for comedy, until they have a daughter and suddenly the dude turns into a sad woke clown who acts as if the world and his friends around him would have changed to the worse and he is all enlightened now, while it is all just him being pussy whipped into idiocy.

[@eldronjaedike9374]

Perhaps the reality is there is no "Real" inside these attention seekers, (Celebrity) comedians, actors, politicians. They create a persona for public attention but are empty inside, and hope we can project our own naturalness on them. So we don't question too deeply and see their emptiness, and recoil in horror from them.

I am so happy you all got Bill Burr on your show. I just love you both and Bill. Weirdly enough my son is around the same age as Bill and they both speak in the same irreverent, outrageous, yet hilarious manner. I laugh so hard at my sons rants that I cry. I told my son about Bill Burr and we watched one of Bills Netflix shows for the first time as we mourned the year anniversary of my grandaughter"s death Oct 16, 22. My son was amazed to find a guy as angry as himself and also trying to work with it. I had my son when I was 16, too young. I apologize all the time for being such an inexperienced stupid parent. I was so scared my kids would be taken from me by social services. I was always working and leaving them alone. Bill really puts perspective into his stories that help to explain how crazy life can be. My son is very worried that the youth today are so vapid and lack resilience. He thanks me and my husband( deceased) for the slaps in the head and says we should have been much harder on him. He tells me I had no idea what BS he was getting into as a kid. He still hasnt told me.

The problem with interviewing successful comedians is they always talk about comedy and they've all got a similar sort of story it's interesting a few times but after a while it becomes the same. Now interviewing a cancelled comedian has a different subject but even that is starting to get old. I watch a bit of Joe Rogan now and then but I specifically avoid episodes with a comedian or with a martial artist because he's just going to talk about their shared experiences for a couple of hours.

[@mnemonicpie]

Based.

[@Ishbikes]

I don’t consider Joe a comedian.

[@matthewtalbot-paine7977]

@@Ishbikes it's certainly not his primary role but he has the experience and knows the people so it just usually devolves in to joe talking about comedians and comedian life when he has a comedian on and I'm just not that interested in that

[@bradspitt3896]

Stuff like Boyscast is funny because it's a duo, so they just riff. Comedians in therapy isn't interesting because they're not philosophers. A comedian breaks the status quo, which needs to be broken sometimes. Comedians aren't funny when they joke about stuff they don't understand (Schumer), or when they're afraid of the status quo (watch Bill too toe around the Gina Carano/Star Wars thing). It makes it boring and annoying.

Although Bill Burr seems disconnected from the anger, stuggle, and conflict that people in the US are going through right now, I love that you guys had him on the show. This was a great conversation.

[@GoAwayNow247]

Amazing Bill Burr as always

[@matthewryan2060]

One thing to remember, having a social media presence is totally on you. No one is forcing you to use it. Set your self free and delete it all. It’s beautiful.

[@stvartak7164]

Does the comment section on a KZbin video count? I never go there. It’s horrible.

[@rogaru]

4:38 bill went nutty on them

[@Lycanmaster]

For being anti woke, I’m always surprised at how woke Billy boy is haha

[@CHuzz7777]

I don’t really know why Burr signs up for these interviews. I’m only ten minutes in but he seems not to want to be there and not to want to talk about much.

[@Thesteadfast]

Thankfully it gets better when they move on to family and comedy. I think he just super misread what their podcast is about.

[@GerardPerry]

I think he basically has the Adam Carolla policy, i.e. he just shows up upon invitation to any podcast.

[@lovepeacebliss]

Thats bill burr

[@jackhumphries6687]

Thats how he always seems. Nothing different.

[@Hartinmouston5158]

It makes sense. The energy and “anger” he exerts on stage. I’d say this is him in recharge mode.

[@mateuszbuczko1627]

"I just think the big thing is apologising to 'em - and addressing, in the moment, that you did it, that you messed up, and that you’re really sorry." 100%

[@voodoochile333]

Now Bill is at the top of the tree, he doesn't believe in cancel culture. With those lucrative TV and movie roles, he won't bite the hand that feeds.

[@freedomprophet2597]

He was saying the same thing 5,10 years ago. So cut the bs just to write something. If there was a comic who was saying there is no cancel culture, it's 20 people who get mad when a joke comes to their neck of the woods, it is him.

[@D4n1t0o]

​@@freedomprophet2597 Go away, reality denier.

[@NSHCPharoah12]

We got a couple of puppets conducting this interview. If you look real close you can see the strings still attached to them and I have a sneaking suspicion Bill can see them too.

[@ScinterScoldem-pq9ew]

😂😂🎉

[@livefreeprintguns]

I love Bill but this episode was like spending an hour listening to paint dry.

[@Johnny-ty1dg]

Much like Anthony Jeselnik on Rogan.

[@ThePaintedHope]

Damn. I'm really enjoying listening to Bill talk about stuff. Im a pretty disagreeable guy though so maybe thats why it doesnt bother me.

[@livefreeprintguns]

@@ThePaintedHope It wasn't about that at all... I just felt like I was watching a group of strangers from across the bar having a casual conversation. Nothing really engaging, just something that kept my eyes occupied for an hour.

[@theinnerlight8016]

Where do you buy your paint? 🤣

[@murray1067]

Yeah, it's a grass grower, besides disagreeing with every question asked to him.

[@chad9017]

Proud of you Bill. Doesn't mean I'm signing on but at least u said a thing or two.

[@maxpolaris99]

The most important divide is not left / right. It's authoritarian / libertarian.

[@reinforcedpenisstem]

That's pretty accurate

[@antirealist]

The true complexity of reality will always outstrip our ability to categorize it. So any classification we come up with will always be insufficient or over simplified. That being said, while it's true that most people are dichotomized into "left" and "right" there also exists the "libertarian" and "authoritarian" divide you mention. However, we do know that people who are "left" trend toward "authoritarian" and vice versa, and that people who tend toward "libertarian" track toward "right" and vice versa. So I'm not sure if there's any one "most important" divide as there are many divides with some overlapping.

[@maxpolaris99]

Very intersectional! 😁@@antirealist

[@LightskinBanditGaming]

after watching several of interviews with Ol’ Billy Burr, this is by far one of the best interview. great job Francis & Kostantin ! 👍🏼

[@lukebayshaw1958]

Francis please stop staring at your guests so awkwardly when them or Konstantine are talking. You don’t even blink😂 much ❤️

[@suedavis1781]

Bill Burr saying that Jimmy Carter was a good US president made my day.

[@Nicole-rq8ix]

Bill Maher mentioned you guys on his show recently. But not by name. lol He said Sam Harris was on "some podcast" lol But good job guys it was a good interview

[@primafacie5029]

Some great guests of late

[@xxnoobslayeriv]

It is so funny seeing people who do not know Bill. This is your podcasters favourite comedian. He is always like this. Just goes to show, and is common from left to right, they always expect Bill to be their favorite highlights and he lets both down. He is NOT about triggering the left, although he does often. Some people are just less obsessed with the cultural war, and these two light weights have made a career of it.

[@returntosender123]

And this is why i like bill burr...

[@gefu7578]

Bill’s frequent appearance on O&A show was definitely relevant in shaping his career. It would be like being on JRE once a week. He will never admit that but whatever!

[@BadTiger]

He's mentionedi it on other podcasts..but as you say whatever

[@mattjagger4360]

Bill is like a dad that just watched his last kid actually leave the house all grown up and now he's just quietly pissed off and totally exhausted. Zero time for any bullshit. 🤣

[@commandermudpie]

Bill is right... we are all a bit fu$&ing nuts.

[@rewild6134]

He’s such a contrarian. It’s exhausting. But you guys did an amazing job pushing forward!

[@LAHowell]

Example of his contrarianism?

[@pandaballsocial9828]

Love Bill Burr! Brilliant! “Everyone is screaming and yelling about shit that doesn’t matter.” The country is divided, left and right… “Yeah, that’s not real.” The best!

Never really got into Bill or knew much about him, but now I see he is really good. Like his attitude. Great guest! Top marks.
