Basically, the comfortable middle class liberal perspective of someone that has clearly never, for example, had to deal with the downsides (which are many) of unbridled mass immigration, especially from parts of the world where social mores do not comport with our own (i.e. Genuine integration is not possible - a huge, festering problem). That he cannot see what a hell-hole America is becoming under the corrupt post-modernists in power (one of whom likes showering with his d@ughter) is actually worrying. Bright but misguided, unfortunately - I bailed after half an hour because I've just bought his book and I want to be able to enjoy it, and not resent the author! Put the Guardian down, Jim.

The jury's a bit out still for me on Obama. I don't think he was a very good president, for all his smoothness. That's not the job. However, although I'm on the side of centrism, with conservatism far more sensible and moral than current leftism with all its awful wokeism, and if I was American I'd vote Republican, and I don't hate Trump - rather, there's a lot about him that I like, nevertheless I'm a little sceptical about the idea of Obama being Biden's primary handler and being still in charge of the US, and representative of all the worst of wokeism etc, I suspect it might be Republican or somewhat right wing propaganda or conspiracy theorism. I'm not sure. I don't know enough about all the details, and I think it's incredibly important to know as much as possible before judging, and definitely not judging when I know that I don't know much. With all the crazy leftist radicalism in America and Trump derangement syndrome and all the rest of it, I felt ready to believe all that about Obama when I first heard it, but I've had to question myself on that. I'm not sure. Maybe he's a more 'alright guy' than many of us are inclined to think. Maybe you know better than me. By all means let me know why you think he isn't if you want.

Have you seen the immigration increase since 2019, let alone in the last 20 years. Of course, immigration, to some extent, is good, but to proclaim the best thing about London is immigration is ridiculous and shows Carrs' lack of knowledge of history and what has changed as we have increased immigration in this country. The two successful migrants on screen are successful; from your point of view, we should see a proportional increase in very successful/positive impact migration, which would add to this country, but we don't. Instead, it's the opposite, putting pressure on the housing, social welfare and NHS systems, as the sheer influx of people is too much to handle.

My mum's side farther afield, but still afaik 100 % Swedish. We used to be one of the most ethnically homogenous places on earth, even more so than Britain because we didn't even have vikings and Normans invading and intermingling. Modern Swedes have been formed over 12 000 years on this land, since the end of the last Ice Age, and we threw cohesiveness, belonging and community in the trash in 30 years to be replaced by cultures that are quite literally as far from the Swedish one as it's possible to be, looking at the World Values Survey. And Britain is doing the same albeit slightly less radically, because you are not quite as cursed with 80 years of social engineering experimentation by nigh-continuous socialist rule

Correct. his ideas are laughable. The idea that we should be having more kids and that fossil fuels will need to remain as a staple of society are childishly simplistic and naive. What about when we run out of fossil fuels and there's no land to grow the crops on because we've been using fossil fuels to grow food instead of nurturing good top soil and using good crop rotation? Fossil fuel based fertilisers are the reason soil quality is at an all time low and pretending that's not a major issue in the world is absolutely out of touch with reality. Then there's migration. If you just open the borders to anyone who wants to come, you'll have massively inflated house prices and rental prices. Immigration is limited for a reason and it's not because of xenophobia. It's because of economics.

Jimmy Carr has an answer for every big question…except how to make Jimmy Carr funny again.

Jimmy has it wrong about the gun issue. As a Canadian we have been required to get licensing, club memberships, mandatory registration and onerous paperwork with a ton of rules about storage and transportation. What have we gotten for it? More rules and regulations all at our cost with an unhealthy dose of arbitration confiscation and loss of rights. At the same time the government has reduced penalties for criminals without gun licenses and a revolving door bail and jail policies. Owning guns has become a political wedge issue that is costly and has actually seen crime increase in recent years. Punishing a group that does it right while being permissive for criminals at every turn is the order of the day. It’s unreasonable, unfair, ineffective and prone to abuse by those who flouted the law to begin with. My American cousins should never move on 2A support. Whatever you give will never be enough and they will never stop until private gun ownership is abolished. Once that happens criminals will be even more emboldened than they already are.

Just look at Australia and the UK how many deaths by guns are in these countries not that many whilst yes here in the UK and Australia you can technically get a gun through a very strict procedure most people don't so it's a fair comparison and really it should be banned as quite frankly you don't need a gun unless your job dictates it which over here is less because we don't really have wild animals that are a threat to livestock so only really security positions we don't even need all our police to have a gun for starters that's how little they're needed. The US and Canada should really follow suit but they're in the backwards area of the world the US brought wokeness to the rest of the west and has a dementia patient in charge whilst Canada well has Trudeau need I say more.

For example, a father with a mandatory arrest clause, in the event he violated his visitation agreement, kidnapped his three children and informed the mother that he intended on killing them. When she reported this to the police, they repeatedly dismissed her claim and ignored the court order. About ten hours later the father brandished a gun at a police station. Once the police eliminated the threat they discovered the bodies of the children in the father's vehicle. When the mother died the police department for dereliction of duty the courts declared police are not responsible for the safety of the public.

And the polio vaccine was an actual vaccine, and there was already a track record. The mRNA vaccines are technically gene therapy. They’re not actually vaccines, and they were a novel technology that had never been used before so to mandate a literally experimental medical intervention for young people who were more likely to die from peanuts than Covid makes them very different cases indeed. there were also plenty of red flags like the absolute lie, that they were “safe and effective“ because those terms have specific definitions. They could not possibly have known it was safe because they were brand new, and not enough time had passed to be able to understand possible long-term ramifications. That’s how linear time works. A traditional vaccine can still pose problems, but the background of them is extremely well understood and they had been used many times before polio, so this wasn’t venturing forth into uncharted territory. I can go on and on, but my final point would be the lack of uptake for booster shots. Most people realized that unless you were compromised by being fat sick or old, the vaccines weren’t really helpful so they didn’t bother. Polio? Indisputable track record. Very different things.

I love Jimmy, and he is quickly becoming one of my favorites. That said, it's good to remember he is a wealthy entertainer, and his perspective may be a little detached from the people who actually have to plan and implement some of these ideas. Ex: a nuclear sub in every town? Nice in theory, but the electricity cannot be free, and will have to be monetized, or a significant tax will have to be accepted by voters. Someone has to maintain the grid and account for expansion--assuming new houses will be built, and assuming EV use continues to grow. He mentioned the idea for GB, which I'm not familiar with, but I can say that in the US there is a ton of above-ground infrastructure that was built around 100 years ago and is costly to maintain, and costly to modernize for disasters like earthquakes and fires, etc. Consumers or tax payers will have to continue to pay for these costs. Bringing the grid underground may reduce maintenance costs in the long run, but doing so is an incredibly complicated and pricey endeavor. Planning around existing infrastructure in the ground (sewer, water, gas, data, etc)--which varies significantly in age and implementation is rather complicated and expensive to do. If it were cheaper to do this than to just maintain the ancient infrastructure, utilities would do it. Leaving the bill for this sort of work to local communities would bring a significant challenge and consumers would probably just rather pay their ever-increasing utility bill, or convert to solar--if it's even a viable option to them.

It would be great if you pushed back more during this interview.

Jimmy is to big for these guys, they know the rules. They want to get bigger, so they'll continue to have soft ball conversations, until they are big enough.

Success is 25% talent,, 25% work and 50% luck. No amount of complaining or minimising can change that. There's many people with Jimmy Carr's talents who were suitable for the job he applied for, and he got those jobs. Does he deserve it? Definitely! Do they have a right to complain? No, cos that's the way the dice rolls. If they had become Jimmy Carr, they probably would've screwed it up by now. His longevity shows talent and skill even more than it shows luck.

I've been a fan of Jimmy since I discovered him some years ago. He's one of the very best. How surprised am I to see how thoughtful and intelligent he is! What a delight.

LOL - 'America has never been better!' 40-50 years ago american middle class families could own their home and a car on daddy's salary while mommy stayed home. Nowadays they just about break even when both parents are making $ 60-70k a year and minimum wages haven't risen until recently (in some sectors) for approximately the same time period. American educational system is pi$$ poor (compared to other western societies) unless you have the money to pay for premium. National healthcare is just as bad as educations, spearheaded by companies with primary focus on their annual net result. I find it remarkable that everso many americans, who have lived abroad in comparable societies, return to America - only to find their beloved US to be in shambles in comparison. Now, it can't all be that bad - and definitely isn't, but the vibe I get from Mr. Carr is off by more than a mile as far as I know, and to hear that he's been studying social sciences makes me wonder, what specific classes he has ben attending.

Bill Mahar is another guy that can say something very reasonable one minute and then something completely insane the next

Eight minutes in: "Gratitude is the mother of all virtues." Beautiful.

He is so right about making sure to keep writing jokes. I watch comedians repeating the same jokes 3-4 years later and it is bizaare.

He's an awesome guy, and that was an awesome conversation, but I do think he's a little unaware of his privileged position. I don't know what the comedy industry is like, but if it's anything like the music business... There are thousands of people out there whose dream is just to be in a position to earn a living from making music. That really is the definition of success to a lot of people who are struggling for success. Awesome conversation, nonetheless.

Y'know Jimmy's comment on America ending slavery is funny to me, because the same people who are about reparations for descendants of slaves are broadly the same people who supported allowing (more) illegal immigration which is one of the leading avenues for modern slavery.

Yes that's why so many people get so worked up about illegal immigration- the slavery aspect

As a quadriplegic, I completely completely agree with his take on punching down. I love it when comedians joke about disabled people.

Much of what Jimmy says is nuts. UK refused the trade deal with USA did they? How about just before the Brexit vote when USA told us we would go to the "back of the queue" if we voted out of the EU? USA wanted no trade deal with us if we were not part of the EU. Why do you think it has not happened? But it's not a bad thing. Many of our trading standards are utterly different to USA and unless our regulators did things right (which they usually don't), our producers would lose out, just as many are doing now with imports.
