"You will bomb in them too." Well played, General. Well played.

[@September2004]

+leviathanmg Yeah, that was perfect! I don't think a screenwriter could have written something better. So perfect considering the double meaning of the word 'bomb'. Also the fact that Maher prefaced his line by mentioning that he was going to do standup overseas for the first time.

[@jeremyampt]

The General's comeback was first class

[@tris421]

haha this was great. stumped by foreign questions that make American policies seem oh so ridiculous... This should be every week!

[@dirkdiggler.]

Jesus just realized this was 6 years ago. Have they done this since?

[@SebastianPeitsch]

Thanks for doing this Bill (and staff) - it was refreshing after 10 years to hear you answer questions from the people who watch your show religiously but aren't from the US :-)

[@famousgoldentouch]

A bit late but I totally agree with you 😉👌👍

[@deadeaded]

Loving that overtime is being shown immediately after the show, rather than a few days later.

[@DasZuckerhaus]

isnt it kind of rude to say america is the only country "defending freedom" around the world when canada and australia contribute so many of their soldiers to so many of the us' missions.

[@SuperThegreatbambino]

Charles is right. He's from Gibsland Louisiana. I think they only have two cops. So if a crime happens during Sunday dinner, everybody is screwed.

[@bandmanager007]

Thanks Bill for speaking up about hunting and the way we treat life. Takes some balls to do so. And most people don't want to see the reality of how we treat other species. This is why I respect you.

[@augustus331]

Exactly! I was speaking with an American exchange student before the pandemic, and was telling casually how her brothers like blowing the brains out of animals. Apparently, it's inshrined in the US culture to have the right to murder things with guns. It's weird, no other country in the world has that

[@davidkeogh424]

why is an american life worth more than a palistenian or an Irish life,as for protecting Australia's freedom that made me laugh.

[@brucebaker810]

+David Keogh Consider this though: An American life is worth more than an Afgani one...to an American. Isn't the flip side also true? That, to an Afgani, an Afgani life is more important than an American one? This is trotted out often. How Americans value fellow Americans over others. Or white people. Or (fill in any team). And they are being condemned for that. But I suspect that each group holds highest affinity for people like themselves. And less for "other". It comes down to tribalism. And proximity.

[@JJMHigner]

Really good discussion.

[@GoogleUser-lk6xn]

7:12 they just didn’t understand the question did they 😂😂

[@antonzabinsky9905]

Feehery is, I suppose, proud that Irish have played such a leading role in the development of Australia. Around 30% of Australians are of Irish heritage.

[@cameronmiles645]

That’s definitely not true. Maybe 10% but not 30

[@Kleavers]

Why don't they just let OverTime run for like an hour. Every time a discussion gets interesting they have to cut it short.

[@mochuisle79]

"People call hunting a sport... it's not a sport if one team doesent know it's playing" Colin Quinn.

[@DonnnixD]

i have to say, the General has a great sense of humour... he took that joke well.

[@goatkiller68]

"there are cops everywhere, i can pick up the phone call 911 and there would be a cop at my front door in 5 seconds". WTF. law enforcement is not responsible for your safety. Multiple federal courts have ruled that. That is one of the first things you learn in criminal justice

[@mike112769]

Some people are still supplementing their diet with hunting. They have to.

The two people that purposely swam in the crocodile pool is a perfect analogy. Also what is an Americans life worth an Americans life is equal to your own. You don't send people in to the crocodile pool!

[@slayerSRBIJA89]

Overtime Overseas? Great idea. Greetings from Serbia.

[@DonColonel]

Not really overseas edition. You talked about oversea countries for less than 10 percent of the time. More like questions about the US from people in europe.

[@valgehiir]

but what European issue would Americans talk about, you think? Discuss liberal win in latest elections in Sweden?

[@starkiller18]

i think the point was he took questions from people in other countries.

[@ingecarina]

valgehiir Liberal win? Nobody won, but the "socialists" and the "green party" are expected to form a government with support from the former communist party. The liberals were in an alliance with the Swedish "conservatives" in Sweden up until now. But the political scale is extremely compressed in Sweden and they are all pretty much the same, far left of center.

[@Bahador.B]

you don't even have freedom in the U.S.A I saw that very well, in the wall street movement and how those people got beat up once the N.Y police got paid.

[@demonsorrows]

To amuse you all with your brain hearing what it wants to hear, listen to 12:33-36 and think/listen for "May 2015(twenty fifteen". Then, listen to it again and think/listen for "May 2013(twenty thirteen)". Your brain will automatically adjust it to hear whichever number you're thinking/listening for. When you think 2015, you'll hear the "f" in fifteen. When you think of 2013, you'll hear the "th" in thirteen. ENJOY!

[@rogerdorsey7823]

Everyone should be allowed to blow their whistle without infringing on others rights. Time for law enforcement to cross the line and join the people they should serve instead of taking orders from criminals and work things out to bring more harmony and justice without giving up their rights.

Stelio Kontos OK, though it barely qualifies as an English speaking nation.

[@DonColonel]

DynaCatlovesme They have english as their first language. I think it qualifies under english speaking nations. And australia is awesome. More free than the US. Way less political and religious propaganda.

[@hawkesworth1712]

"Least free English speaking nation"????? Let's see you back that one up with some facts.

[@32shumble]

If you can't back up your statement with some sort of evidence then you are just a joke

[@lookingforonetruechristian7396]

Haha... Funny how he talked about cops in a rural area getting there in 30 secs. I live in a rural area and maybe 30 mins to an hour. I once had to call the cop on a trespasser stealing from me. Took the cop 4 hours to get there. No sh*t. If you live in the south in a rural area... you have to take care of problems yourself. I don't even think about calling the cops anymore.

[@froznic]

It always seems so naive to me that people actually think when you bomb another nation that they wouldn't want to retaliate. The strange idea that if you bomb them they'll just stop hating you and go about their lives, oblivious to the fact that you killed their family and friends is absurd.

[@UncleMike43]

How many deaths ?? the answer my friend is blowi'n' in the wind.

[@MrAerohank]

In 2012 a study was conducted to create a freedom index. They looked at thing like financial freedom, freedom of speech, human rights violation etc. The USA, the country of freedom, came in at only rank 7. So to answer the question 'what does the USA have that makes them so free compared to others?' is one that can not be answered, because it assumes the wrong premise that the USA is actually the country with the most freedom.

[@irCurts_Old_Gamer]

American lives should be precious to us. Can we get our ELECTED officials to agree?

[@openskies11]

"How many deaths should a nation absorb to protect civil liberties?" What do they expect? A number? Which liberties are they referring to? Voting? Marriage? Freedom of speech? Religion? I don't like the question. You can't just throw out a number for something like that.

[@gavinbarnes6310]

Deer population is controlled by amount of hunting permits given to hunters; hunters are not partial murderers Bill.

[@brucebaker810]

+MN purp If Joe gives Bob a piece of paper that "permits" Bob to kill Steve...doesn't matter that Bob is "following the rules" and "got the proper form". It doesn't matter to Steve. And it doesn't matter to the deer.

[@Clandsom]

I see your point but I believe a human being has the right to life not a deer.

[@Clandsom]

Also deer population can overrun suburbs easily, unfortunately we have to kill male deer.

[@antonzabinsky9905]

I completely agree about Australia. It's the freest country in the world. There may be freer countries than Australia on certain individual issues but, overall, Australia is definitely the freest. But I think Feehery has an ulterior motive for saying this (even though I completely agree with him), it is that Australia is the most Irish country other than Ireland itself (Feehery is an American of almost certainly Irish heritage). People of Irish heritage have defined Australia in many ways. They have been so critical in the development of Australia as a country and what it is today. There are more Americans of Irish ancestry but in terms of percentage of population Australia has a lot more and, more crucially, playing a far more important role in the country's development compared to Irish Americans in the US, considerable as that is.

[@Templedelagloire]

How is America the only country that protects freedom?

[@dhlemon1625]

The difference between urban and rural liberals is an important distinction to make. Out in the hills of Upstate NY, for example, the liberals have guns, are NRA members, go to church every Sunday, and still think that gay rights are important, climate change is an existential threat, and the rich should be taxed more. The Democrats have a wide base, and they need to pay better attention to appealing to more of it if they want to win.
