Nardwuar vs. Jello Biafra (2010)

Nardwuar's 11th interview with Jello Biafra done at Chapel Arts Centre, Vancouver, BC, Canada!

[@retroshark]

I love Jello so much, he's such a character and always makes me smile and laugh.

[@n0-one0]

Jello is a communist pseudo-intellectual cosplaying as an anarchist cowboy. He's just another milquetoast lefty pretending to have all the answers.

[@PsychoHF]

I like how Rotten said Jello was selling himself... that's a pretty hypocritical thing to say, especially for him.

[@amaxwiththefacts]

Jello Biafra is like interviewing Eric Andre. It's great that Nardwuar isn't phased out by their passive aggressive technique.

[@jasonlieberman4606]

Neither then have any objective to actually maliciously demean Nardwuar. They're both tricksters is all that is

What are you commenting about

[@NattyAsho]

Uh?

[@MR.FREEDMAN]

Lol at Jello's Serj Tankian beard

[@standinsilence]

Yeah hes going for the Al Qaida Terrorist-Look before it was even a thing.

[@ellimick5958]

I am always amazed at the artistry and intelligence of Jello Biafra. Whether you agree or disagree with his politics, he truly is an amazing person.

[@maxb.chorney2102]

I'm a History student at university and I've read that book The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks and I'm also a JB&GSM fan and I never knew that's what that song was about. My entire life is being flipped upside down right now.

I love how Jello Biafra was trying to be nice and not shittalk Johnny Rotten but then he hears Johnny having a projectionary little shitfit about him.

[@cameronjohnson3529]

He even still managed to take the high road. Lydon is just a piss-ant.

[@idontcareaboutyou7757]

@@cameronjohnson3529 you mean that Lydon pissing Jello on his head like a ant at any time. no comparison, Jello stole his bandmates music hiding behind his fake left wing politics crap. Lydon is a true anarchist and a giant compared to this little weirdo, and is beloved by any bandmates he had.

[@nkmcfrln]

Oh, yeah. John was having a, "projectionary little shitfit." Anything you say you pretentious fucking prat.

+sub scorcher you'll fuck yourselves even better with Drumph and even with Hilary but I'd go with the lesser of the two evils named Hilary instead of a facist supremacist radical lunatic who should have all his name stripped off his towers if he gets disgracefully thrown out of the party and loses.....hell Ted Nugent would be better than Dana Drumph

[@yungacidtab1788]

Dear: You fuck both of them

[@TheFatherAndSonTeam]

How can anyone say that jello has no sense of humor?

[@hildkiin]

well, humor requires some sort of intelligence...

[@TheBigMclargehuge]

Yeah and it turns out Jello is kind of a basic bitch.

[@Citizencoolguy]

Often I have wondered what Wesley Willis would think about certain events or news stories, and it was nice to hear someone else does too!

[@Danielcaie92]

Biafra with the beard looks like a Klingon from the original series...

[@thewavingbear]

lydon couldn,t handle meeting someone more intelligent and principled than him.

Jello's impression of Wesley Willis was great!!! I could see that... He'd be head-butting all the way to the stage.

[@toomworld]

My dad was one of the founders of Black Oak Arkansas. When I was a teen, I got into DK and my dad told me he had shared a plane with them when he was later working with Foghat. He really didn’t like them. Called them “fouls mouthed snotty punks”

[@n0-one0]

Jello is an asshat. It's curious that he was inspired by Dandy.

[@Laura-kg9le]

"what a decomposed moose smells like in Sarahs garage" 😅

Laura Plant that cracked me up

[@colina1330]

He's so good at coming up with stuff like that right off the cuff.

Jello looks like he's cosplaying Chris Chan on this interview.

[@AdrianGhastly]

I THOUGHT THE SAME THING

[@smurfette_blues7922]

Oh god i cant unsee it

[@lvx_rose]

So glad I don't know what the fuck you mean. He just looks like Jello; no comparison. A real unique individual, it's quite obvious those terms are foreign to you.

"Lydon reminds me of my Grandmother", nice impression:-P

[@ThiagoSNFU]

One of his best interviews with Jello Biafra.

[@Laura-kg9le]

Hahaha that's the best impression of Lydon ever! And I think he's spot on because Lydon does seem like an old grump. so strange, I think jello biafra has a great sense of humour!

he scares me when he was in dk. nice to know his name is jello, i feel better.

so well done.

Read this guys lyrics. So ahead of his time and informed us young punks about the horrors of Capitalism run amuk and extremist ideology.

This is AWESOME. And I think Jello has a thing for CANADA!!

[@luckycomehawaii]

great one I saw DK's on November 22nd 1981 Dallas texas Main street

[@EarlSmith2469]

Jello Rules, Johnny Rotten is a Legend too and it's sad that he has to say those things about Jello Biafra. Jello was sued by his bandmates over an accounting glitch that both parties admitted was simply erroneous and no fault of Jello, but the DK'S Capitalized on it and held Biafra personally responsible as if he was to blame and it was an intentional "Shortchanging" - Read the Fine print, I thought Jello bad, but then found out the whole story, the man is for REAL.

They're called HeLa cells (for Henrietta Lacks). We still use them today. In fact, I used some for my master's degree. Great book. The history is pretty fucked up regarding how the patient and her family were treated though.
