  • so he was really on speed balls?(heroine and cocaine injected with a needle) i heard that is what he over dosed on, funny i toook him at most at just astoner a cannabis user but damn speed balls? i can't even tell thats one of the most powerful drugs / addictive drugs u can take

  • @SPACEAGENINJA87 No man he passed away from hearth failure atleast whats his wife was saying. Heard rumours that he speed balled but dno

  • i love when anything is labled: never been seen before. because it's always a recorded video which was at least seen by the cameraman.

  • mitch skinny as hell

  • Did not know he was dead untill some day ago..

  • And uhh... And uhh... And uhh... And uhh...

  • What a lovely, cool, down to earth bloke.A genius as well.RIP Mitch

  • "i'm against picketing, but i don't know how to show it."

    brilliant.

  • he's wearing the infamous washington u. shirt!

  • Did anyone notice that when he was talking about his incense and how he tries not to make it a big deal, it seemed like he was advertising Pepsi cuz the label was facing the camera at that moment

  • is it me or is the interviewer reminiscent of mike birbiglia?

  • damn straight he can say ass! do you know who he is!

    he's Mitch Hedburg bitch!

  • To be honest, it's a little strange to here him talking in his natural voice rather than the deadpan voice he used on stage.

  • Mitch Hedberg Is seriously one of the most down to earth people in the world. Not to mention the fact that he is funny as hell. lol RIP Mitch!

  • @JJordan1012 He is not funny, he says literal things, yes probably for the docile drugged up minds he is funny.

    But to the rest of the world this is a drugged up pillock end of story, sorry to break it to you but he is by no means world class, he's actually quite dreadful, American stand up has to be one of the worst in the world.

    End of conversation lol.

  • @andrew8833 I'm violent and drug free and I find him hilarious. I guess everything you just said has been proven invalid lol

    End of conversation

  • Comment removed

  • @Griminal BTW That is rich "I'm violent and drug free and I find him hilarious. I guess everything you just said has been proven invalid lol"

    Quite clearly have absolutely no brains, I mean since when do the Irish have any brains? Makes my comment perfectly valid you delinquent Irish prick.

  • @andrew8833 appreciation of performance arts is very subjective. one man might find mitch hilarious and another might not. trully dreadful are those people who make broad sweeping hateful statements like the one you made here in the comment section.

    my guess is that you have low self-esteem and/or have traveled very little.

    wake up, bro. the world won't wait for you forever.

    don't bother replying to my comment. because if you do, i won't waste my time reading it.

  • @hidendiamond Actually both of those assumptions you have about me, are complete bull shit, but hey whatever, I am actually a highly successful Web & Software developer, American comedy is one of the worst, not the worst but definitely one of the worst in the world.

    Also have been to 10 different countries doing work, why would I say I have not travelled? You utter retard.

    That is fact, there are a few exceptions to that rule, but this prick is no exception lol.

  • Comment removed

  • @richy12377 What an ignorant sack of shit you are, where on my profile does it say Design? Surely you would know that development (web based software) and design (UI Design) are 2 entirely different things.

    So you are quite clearly jealous of I have intelligence and a career? This pillock is crap end of lol.

    I feel pitty for you the ignorant pillock lol.

  • Comment removed

  • @richy12377 Thank you for proving my point mate, hilarious simply legendary cock up mate.

  • I miss mitch what a funny guy and seemed to be great human being.

  • @jkrieg62 when you read between the lines and listen to a few of his interviews, it is clear that mitch was a great human being. i have a playlist of mitchs comedy. send me a message and i will try to set it up so you can check it out.

  • its soo cool how he elaborates on his answers,,,,,seems very genuine,,,,,,RIP Brother!

  • Must.Drink.Pepsi

  • and uh, and.

    jk dude, sweet interview.

  • what a beautiful amazing person

  • a real talent forsure

  • hedberg always came across as genuine. not trying to appear famous or together or even funny. yet he was funny

  • If I could take one person who has ever lived as a representation of how a human should be. I'd take Mitch.

    I'm gutted that I'll never get to meet him because I'd have made it my life mission to do so.

  • Mitch is dead and Dane Cook is alive.  What's wrong with this picture?

  • @SPRPhilly everything

  • nice guy.

  • this interview is not never before seen. it has been viewed 326,311 times

  • thumbs up if you typed your response with one finger

  • i like sun man, i'm way into it...

  • I wish I couldve chilled with him

  • Mitch was such a laid-back and chill dude. I'd love to smoke a blunt with this guy. R.I.P.

  • how did he die when did he die i just recently heard of him he is soooo funny

  • @pantera2469 drug overdose 2005

  • @matttylove thank you 4 answering my question

  • @pantera2469 No prob.

  • @pantera2469

    Mitch Hedberg died of heart failure in 2005 and illegal drugs were found in his system.

    Had a legal prescription drug been found the toxicology would have listed the amount and registered it as "at therapeutic levels", but because there is no "theraputic level" for illicit drugs the toxicology listed the, low, amounts. Mitch didn't have enough heroin or cocaine in his system to kill him but the cocaine that was cut with what he thought was heroin likely contributed to his death.

  • @matttylove

    Heart Failure 2005. That's what his death certificate and autopsy list as the official cause.

    Correlation is not causation. Though I think that the cocaine that Mitch was not aware was in his heroin was likely the catalyst the truth is that there's no way to know whether on not Mitch's heart would have failed that night without drugs.

    Wikipedia really needs to change the entry on Mitch's death.

  • Oh mitch...Mitch WHY????

  • So, in general, Mitch's act... was not an act... he really was like that.... which is awesome.

    RIP

  • @bridgetown1966 No see: Early Mitch Hedberg TV (1995) stand-up. There he is acting normal. It is or an act or the drug use made him this way.

  • Comment removed

  • mitch and hicks are the best!

  • Interviewer: "You've been touring for three months, maybe longer, I don't know"

    Lol, what a great interviewer! I wonder what made him want to do this? Such great natural talent

  • What a lousy interviewer...

    -Response Mitch hedberg to question- ...

    Reporter:"Yeah, Yeah,... next question"

    Really annoying. As if he doesn't even listen to the answers

  • I can't believe people are even comparing Hedberg and Cook. Cook's performances are one big recovery, just terrible.

  • COOK SUCKS

  • Mitch is the greatest, but what a HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE interviewer.....who is this giant douche????? GOD YOU SUCK

  • It's really sad that we didn't get to see his full potential, I think he was just starting to spark .. tragic... he's a funny man

  • funny is as funny does so if you have time come check out my videos thanks for stopping by subscribe

  • are the incense still available? someone please help me.

  • 2:00 i did it right here at washington university ......what is it like to be in arizona

  • "you've been touring three months...maybe longer...i dont know"

    jesus...thats a terrible line for a \n interviewer to say...

  • What an awkward interviewer. I love Mitch Medberg though, may he rest in peace.

  • Mitch was weird in that he was pretty rapid fire (not in his delivery but in that he told a lot of jokes in a short period of time) yet every joke is funny, fresh, quirky. A lot of his jokes are things that you can't believe that you didn't notice before, like how every photo is of you younger. Him, Carlin, Hicks, Pryor, Cosby and Wright are my favourites. Oh yeah, and Dane Cook.

  • the interviewer says "and" like 100 times

  • i love Mitch!

  • absolutely love Mitch. Greatest comic. So laid back, the type of dude you could just chill with. Always modest. If there was a way to sacrifice yourself to bring him back, I'd do it in a heartbeat.

  • @BassistBill1988

    He was simply an amazing person. Looks like the sort of person who'd have time to anyone.

  • @thechosen2010

    *for

  • @jayteso A lot of brilliant people have had vices. Hendrix was a BRILLIANT musician, and he overdosed.

  • Thanks for posting. Was very interesting.

  • (Mitch voice) Never before seen? You lyin' man, it's been seen over 300,000 times!

  • Mitch would be proud!

  • nice one. He was genius.

  • @iieatsmallchildren, He went on a Wednesday!!! Hahaha

  • Watching Mitch do his thing kinda pisses me off a little, taken too soon

  • yea i agree

    his career was just getting good

    i guarantee he'd be a huge comedian now and probably a star in comedic movies

    what a tragedy

  • Makes me happy every morning when I listen to his work.... no better way to start the day off than with mitch

  • I really miss this guy.

  • Such a genuine person!!! Thank you for sharing with us

  • "...you can say ass..." lol... cute!

  • THANKS FOR THIS!!!! AWESOME!!!!

  • i love how theyre at Arizona State and he's wearing a Washington sweater hahaa. Love Mitch. RIP<3

  • Terrible executed interview but fortunately Mitch held it together and actually handled it well

  • That was a great interview. the interviewer was fairly awkard but good on him for getting such a good interview out of him.

  • Poor Mitch. Heart defects and drugs don't mix.

  • he had an unhealthy hear you cock sucker. Take a life lesson and get facts straight before you make fun of people who were better than you. think about it. seriously think about it. it'll eat you up

  • LOL what the fuck are you talking about dipshit? How, in any way, am I making fun of him? Mitch was a genius. I loved his standup. It was horrible that he died so soon in his career. All I said was a HEALTHY heart and drugs don't mix. Hard enough drugs will fuck up any heart, regardless of what condition it's in. Are things cleared up for you now dumbass? How about you grow up a little bit before you call someone a cocksucker for absolutely no reason, you faggot.

  • just because hes funny and i agree he is but that doesn't make him a genius albert einstein is a genius could mitch hedberg split the adam no then hes not a genius why does everybody call anyone whos good at anything a genius a genius is someone who can contain comprehend and figure out anything so no mitch hedberg is not a genius funny but not a genius

  • Einstein didn't split adams. He split atoms. And Mitch certainly was a genius. A comedic genius. The amount of thinking, pre-planning, creativity, and hard work that went into his nightly comedy routine far exceeds the amount you will do in your lifetime.

  • @jayteso A genius is a person, a body of work, or a singular achievement of surpassing excellence. More than just originality, creativity, or intelligence, genius is associated with achievement of insight which has transformational power. A work of genius fundamentally alters the expectations of its audience. Genius may be generalized, or be particular to a discrete field such as sports, statesmanship, science, or art.

  • I'm not saying he's not funny if find him funny but a genius I mean come on he's funny thats it he's not a genius albert einstein was a genius, benjamin franklin was a genius, thomas edison not your going to compare him mitch hedberg to those people a genius is someone who makes discoveries useful to mankind one that nobody else could do mitch hedberg is a comedian not a genius and to say otherwise is just plain ridiculous. Does that mean my mechanic and plumber are genius's

  • @jayteso Apparently, your outlook on life is extremely limited. There are many different types of "genius": analytical, creative, business, etc. Jim Henson was considered a genius, just as much as Einstein was.

    Also. Thomas Edison was NOT a scientific genius. He bought most of his inventions from the lesser known inventor Niccolo Tesla. Edison was a business genius.

  • Dude you shut him down you knew your Tesla and that fuck didn't know he existed probably, but I think edison only got a few inventions from Tesla, as he resigned when Edison didn't pay him a fair wage because he wasn't American which Edison recanted as his biggest mistake. Then again Edison was a genius inventor but a retard by traditional IQ tests as he could hardly read until well into his old age. Not to mention Tesla was just simply smarter than he was (accidental history rant!)

  • nut rider

  • I drink YOUR milkshake I DRINK IT UP!

  • @Kaze74

    An IQ test reflects nothing on the child in the deepest jungle of South America that has never seen letters or numbers but can lead an entire tribe.

  • @DrFlaxWebFLOO

    I think that jayteso had just gone through his "Just Say No" indoctrination when he posted his comment.

    When do they do that with the kids, now? Kindergarten?

    Might help give perspective to his ignorance.

  • @lesterclaypool1 It's the "Drugs er bad, mmkay" mentality. I bet he enjoys getting drunk.

  • @DrFlaxWebFLOO

    Probably. And then he tells barstool prophet stories about some kid that he knew that beat his dog to death in a pot-induced rage. Then he get's to the "I love you man" point. Then his alcohol clouded judgement causes him to steal his parent's car which leads to him wrapping himself and a granny pushing a stroller around a telephone pole.

    Guess who survives?

    Fuck.

    I'm gonna go smoke some green, man. You coming?

  • @lesterclaypool1 You know it, bro.

  • a genius of thier craft maybe

  • @jayteso

    What's up jayboy? Had you just gone through the "Just Say No" campaign at your school when you posted this time last year? Do yourself a favour and look up the racism and sexism that our current anti-drug laws were founded on. It's called the Harrison Tax Act.

    Go read about the "uppity niggers and lazy women" campaign that caused this bill to become law then come back and tell me that "drugs are bad, m'kay" and that a genius couldn't possibly use them.

  • "split the adam"? well we know you aren't.

  • go kill urself

  • Comment removed

  • How sad. He seems like such a solid nice guy.

  • the world lost it's best comedian...

    RIP Mitch

  • totally agree

  • I saw mitch for the first time on Comedy Centrial a few weeks ago. Never really noticed him before. I really like his stuff,but found out LAST week that the guy is dead from an overdose. Darn...I missed it all. The guy is good.

  • wait, incense?? could that be cinnamon bun smelling incense from his joke?

  • HAHA!

    He was serious when he said he bought school shirts and people thought he was from there in that joke! Didn't know that!

  • it was a wednesday!

  • don't do drugs... unless you're funny... if you are, here's a pipe...

    RIP

  • ''you've been on letterman what like 7 times?''...''Nine.'' lol

  • Mitch was totally a cool dude, i know hes up there making God laugh at his one liners, "So whats that all about....God" hahaha Rest in peace Mitch

  • Mitch is a Legend. R.I.P. brother

  • Haha, Mitch was a cool cat.

    The world became a lot less funny once he passed on.

    Such a genuine dude.

    Rest in Peace Mitch Hedberg

    You've passed your outlook on life on to your fans and through us it lives on.

  • he did heroin and coke ..... and in a way he wouldnt have been famous without that influence

  • RIP Mitch

    don't do drugs

  • ef that

  • God, watching this makes me so sad. Mitch was really a great guy, I wish I could have seen him live.

  • To be honest..i think black comedians are better then white *im not racist*..and maybe cuz black people can get away with some jokes...but mitch hedberg..BEST COMEDIAN OF OUR TIME!..Its his one liners man that crack me up..even when he messes up or a joke isnt funny he's honest about it...he'll say straight up that he think its not a good joke..miss ya mitch..ur the greatest!

  • He's so honest..

  • 1 cool muthaFucker...RIP Mitch.

  • Rest in peace Mitch, you will be remembered. The legend of stand up comedy.

  • man i wanna smoke a bowl with mitch, can you imagine it!!!

  • did they call that one show because they only made one?

  • The reporter is TERRIBLE!!!

  • Dude, Washington University is right down the street from where I live....

    ...whoa

  • me too, cuz im at SLU

  • So sad so much talent. I'm 60 yrs old and I think he was a genious.

  • you spelled genius wrong and your 60?

  • he didn't spell his 60 wrong, just the genius. YOU'RE mistaken. now go text message someone about it. ima take a nap.

  • yes and there is a subtle difference between "YOUR" and "YOU'RE" for example:

    your penis is small

    vs.

    you're an ass-helmet wearing bag of cocks.

    notice the difference yet?

    well apart from me being absolutely superior to you in every way imaginable i mean...

    also: he is that much more older THAN you.

    that's 2 for 0

    you are now a certified assclown, making me the victor.

    also you do not know syntax, i will take poor spelling over syntax any day. dig a ditch and fill it over you plz.

  • pwnd

  • owch sucker!

  • you got served

  • That comes from uh years of uh........

  • how can you compare mitch to dane cook cook is the lamest comedian mitch was the man

  • i couldn't have said it better. Dane blows Mitch is Amazing

  • @mitchhedberg4ever thats bullshit....cook is a great comedian in his own right...mitch rocks though.

  • @joester07 Cook is awful. NONE of his stuff is orignal

  • mitch is amazing

  • that was great

  • Mitch is way funnier than Dane Cook. I used to be a fan of Cook, but, he got old.

  • yeah dane cooks first couple of CD's are hilarious but when he started making movies and stuff it all went downhill

  • R.I.P. M.A.T. <3

  • RIP MITCH

  • Did he really make cinnamon roll scented inscence?

  • I really liked this

  • Mitch was born in St Paul :D I was born like 15mins away from St Paul!

  • you must feel good?

  • DAAAMNN RIGHT I do :D

  • alright this kid acts madd awkward the whole interview, kinda makes me uncomfortable but he has some good questions. mitch hedberg shows again how likable he is with his answers and i gotta give the kid props for just getting this interview

  • RIP Mitch...Dane Cook should have died instead of you.

  • I dont think i've ever agreed with anyone more!

  • Yes.

  • Dane Cook should have died instead.

  • I think nobody should've died....

  • ya, Dane and Mitch r my 2 favs

  • I didn't say i liked Dane but he shouldn't die.

  • lol

  • that guy is a dick. his condescending manner towards mitch makes me want to punch a small animal in the face

  • woah there roid rage. simmer down now =P

    Mitch is the comic equivalent of Cobain. Noone would be able to pull off a good interview. I just hope that guy realizes now who he had the privilege of interviewing. Hope he didnt waste the opportunity to get an autograph

  • i don't like the interviewer, he seems cocky and he keeps laughing for no reason and acting like he can relate to Mitch, but he should like be bowing down to him.

  • You should that out the part of the video that says this is a "never-before-seen" interview, now that it's got almost 300,000 views.
