William Shatner l Adam Carolla Show 5/23/2023

[@SithisLich]

I think we can all agree, we all could just sit here and listen to Bill Shatner talk all damn day.

[@jamesdellaneve9005]

Exactly

[@edquin8]

William is articulate and sharp as ever what a legend

[@brek5]

Yeah, he is alarmingly alert. But when he was like, "How did they go upstream?" it's like... yeah, get near the edge, haha, but maybe he hasn't been on rivers much. He just makes it sound amazing, haha.

[@julioenrique8552]

pretty good argument for drinking the blood of sacrificed children

[@tomjones4835]

What’s crazy is how long it’s been since he killed his wife

[@Spacerowa-f4t]

93 years-old. Let us all enjoy William Shatner while we can. Cherish everyone in your life because it goes by very fast.

[@magicmatt1969]

Except for him... he'll outlive us all

[@Pfeffa]

There's just a handful of celebrities it's really hard to picture the world without--that McCartney level--and to me, Shatner is one of them

[@rustybarrel516]

Did a movie with Paul Newman and Edward G. Robinson in 1964… when Beatlemania was raging and the Kennedy assassination was still fresh in peoples’ minds… and telling stories about it like it was three years ago.

[@rustybarrel516]

Aaaaand… he was two years old when the original King Kong was released. 😳

[@SuzannaKiraly]

It's hard to believe he is 93. He looks and sounds much younger.

[@lauranathan1618]

William Shatner sets the highest bar possible. The example of what the golden years should be. Just incredibly engaging and brilliant.

[@johngalt2640]

The world needs more “curious” people like Shatner. His story telling is pretty incredible too!

[@tomjones4835]

You should hear the story about how he didn’t kill his wife. Not very believable

[@jhull5870]

It is so true about the world needing more " curious" people. Common sense and curiosity are not that common in today's world.

[@1977TA]

Every Shatner interview seems like it is not long enough. I'd watch 4 hours of him sharing stores and commenting on things. It is always nice to see him interacting with generations of young people who were not born when his extraordinary career began. Shatner is the definition of a National Treasure.

[@pennywiseflyz9130]

This interview is profound. I might even say “Apex” for Carolla. I could listen to Shatner all day

[@Tsureiki]

They need to study Shatner's brain once he's passed to understand how he's so lucid at such an old age. It's remarkable. He speaks better than most 60 year old's I know.

[@royavery6949]

He's at the sharp end of the stick for any age honestly. Very insightful individual

[@zazaaziella16]

Biden has given older people a bad name!

[@1977TA]

@@TheRageaholic Clint is kinda frail to be honest and looks every bit of 93 years old. Shatner is on another level and while his birthday and year indicate he is 92 years old, his body and mind are actually much younger. 10 to 15 years younger maybe even 20.

[@DesertGuy702]

What an absolute legend, and William Shatner got to speak with him! Honestly though what an incredible life Mr. Shatner has lived. An American icon for sure.

[@michaelswanton2224]

Except that he is Canadian

[@mypartyisprivate8693]

@@michaelswanton2224 Everyone knows that. Don't be pedantic. He's an American icon in the sense of the exact dictionary definition of American icon: "an idol in American culture." Nearly all of his works are of American production. He is a Canadian that Americans cherish and adore. He's lived in the US for almost his entire career. Still does. Shatner is a wonderful man who's left an indelible mark on Hollywood and North American culture as a whole. My favorite Canadian and an idol of many an American.

it would be a miracle if I'm even above ground at the time I would become 92. Shatner's curiosity about our world and vitality is truly inspiring and gives people hope that you can be so alive in your 90s.

[@stephengiese7549]

He sounds just like a storyteller! The raising and lowering of his voice. The polite way he looks at everyone while he speaks. I am mesmerized so much that i almost forgot what he is saying. Just what you want. Funny and lively.😊

I had no clue that William Shatner was so cool, I remember when Star Trek first came out and I was 11 years old, and I was captivated. Thanks for the great interview.

[@PoppysGuitar]

God William Shatner amazing man. When I got married in 2002 on Nantucket Bill was there on the island. Some of my wedding party saw him at an ice cream store and he gave autographs. Incredible he is so sharp.

BILL looks almost the same now as he did 20 years ago when that show played. Amazing! That show makes me laugh out loud, and there are not many shows that do that. It is so bizarre and funny… I wish it was still on!

Excellent show Adam Carolla❤

[@doreestone4487]

I have loved Bill Shatner for years. He is humble and hilarious. He is the kind of person I would love to just sit and talk with for hours, listening to him tell outrageously funny stories, interesting ideas, and philosophical thoughts. He knows his own faults and weaknesses, but he is able to bring humor to the criticism he receives. Plus the man went into space! For real! He’s terrific and I wish I could meet him before I die, but, at age 73, that is not likely. Like Birdie used to say on Fibber McGee and Molly, “Love that man.” ❤😂

[@flynnlizzy5469]

19:52 I've been wondering about this myself and FINALLY, someone asked it !! Thank you Adam, you made my DAY !! You too William Shatner !!

[@Notrocketscience101]

Now I’m going to look for more William Shatner interviews. Imagine being in your 90’s and being more fun than guys in their prime. He talks about old folks home and my head thinks “he’s too young to be talking about old folks homes” 😄

Would be such a wonderful evening to sit down and have dinner with William Shatner. His wisdom thru his life experiences is quite evident. As one said in an earlier post, people need to be more curious like Mr. Shatner.

[@WinkLinkletter]

Seeing the stars without light obstruction the first time if you had been city raised is like the first time you see the ocean if you weren't brought up near one, especially if you venture beyond sight of land. My father didn't see an ocean until he was twenty-one, and him telling about it is one of my favorite of his stories. Such a magnitude, it is hard to witness without some sense of awe, for most. (Not sure about Adam, though, he seemed a little blase' about the stars during the story.)

[@jerryakbar6147]

Today I was in the passenger seat of a fellow elevator mechanics truck,stopped at a red light on sunset and the 101. Right in front of the Netflix building. The picketers were asking me if I knew about the strike and why they were striking. My response was, oh no what am I going to do ? No tv shows or movies about how bad white men are ? That’s terrible…

Adam's rant about "specimens" & human's "touched by God", reminds me of the Andy Griffith episode w/Barbara Eden as the manicurist who came to work at Floyd's Barbershop. Andy's explanation of her beauty; “Nature's been good to you. I mean real, real, real good. I-I can't remember when I've seen nature spend as much time on any one person.”

Commenting on the very end of the video - when I worked in retail, we had to cut holes in the clothes we were getting rid of not to discourage dumpster divers, but to discourage employees who would "damage out" things they wanted, and then take them back out of the trash. We had to show a manager that the clothes were really ruined before we put them in the trash.

[@jc10907Sealy]

Love William Shatner ❤

[@peppergrand1072]

Can we meet in the middle and come together to agree that William Shatner is now and future tence to be our bench mark for long living. How long will it take before the average aging person is to refer to Shatner as the exception to the rule. Meaning that,Gpd willing, his life going forward is recognized by the masses and multiplied every year past his centennial birthday. Many people have made it to the age of 100 yrs old, but obviously not many are celebrated by others that it can be a goal to reach this number,because of the example Mr. Shatner has paved as a functional human past the age of 100yr old.

[@NickWeissMusic]

I’m with Shatner. Religion and God aren’t necessary if you know what’s really going on in the universe, it’s far more incredible, and our existence is far less probable than any one book can explain. And the important part is we appreciate our place and experience in it! 70% of the universe is made of “dark energy,” and we have no idea what it is. That’s like not understanding what water is on earth. It’s absolutely fascinating, and I’m cool with the struggle to explain it, don’t need a myth to feel better about it.

[@Sigmund1924]

The problem with religion is that it simply provides comfort to the majority of people in the world. Why would they expend the energy to find out what’s going on in the universe when they know in advance that it won’t comfort them upon their demise in the way that religion does. I expect that mentality when when we’re talking about people from uneducated areas of the world but it’s quite frustrating to hear professors, scientists, legendary musicians, etc., turn off their minds momentarily when discussing religion only because it’s a comfortable thought.
