  • these ads make me unable to actually watch these. the video just does not play.

    i've seen every episode of bullshit but can't even get my penn (and teller) fix here :(

    i'm having serious withdrawals...

  • Carlin is really one of the few comedians who got better the older he got.

  • I have "Take offs and Put Ons"  on vinyl, and I also found it on Pirate Bay. I only download stuff that isout of print, like the old Cheech and Chong.

  • This stupid Priest ad is totally fail. I can understand the need to advertise, but playing the exact same ad over and over in front of short segments like this is pissing off more potential customers than it is attracting. Why can't advertisers take the trouble to moderate the repetition of their ads.

  • Something tells me that Penn has a lot of weird shit on his computer.

  • I have take offs and put ons :]]]]] i love george and penn

  • Penn,

    Well done.

  • digital children rock

  • duude  i have that shut

  • Hi Penn fans. Penn Says videos have been discontinued, so you won't be seeing any new content on here. You can check out our Profile on our Channel Page for more info. We'll still be checking in, so hope to keep chatting with you all! Thanks!

  • @pennsays :(

  • @Herv3 You can see what Penn is up to now by checking his Twitter account: @pennjillette

  • @pennsays "What he's up to now" being misquoting Martin Luther King.

  • @pennsays LUCKILY you have 246 videos on your channel to watch through and ALSO all those great episodes of Bullshit to watch. I'm not completely bummed out. Enjoyed the videos while they lasted. Penn&Teller Rock!!!! Ma Halo!

  • I could be wrong, but it looked like Penn was just slightly choked up there for a bit when talking about Carlin. I would be too if I were him.

  • George Carlin was an inspiration to not just me but my generation as well. He will be missed.

  • You knew him a lot longer than I did but I feel exactly as you do. My intro to him was when HBO was new. He is one man I wish could have lived forever and a person I wouldn't mind being cloned, though I am not really into cloning. I look for others to carry on his legacy but I guess it really falls on us individually. I think if everyone in this world could adopt some of his way of thinking we would all be a lot happier. I'm sure he wouldn't agree with me. Thanks Penn.

  • haaaa you did not put a fragment of it !!!

  • he was great

  • got to have a gun people if youre dealing with bears

  • I'd say a prayer for your 2 but I know your both atheists ... lol

  • Penn, that was beautiful. It is wonderful to hear the opinion of a comedic force like you talk about George Carlin in such a positive way. Carlin helped me feel like I'm not so alone in this country, or hell, even in this world. I'm glad you saw it too. Thanks to people like you and Carlin I know I'm not crazy for buying in to the consumerist paradise they're trying to sell us. I know I'm on the right path.

  • Penn's gray roots are showing

  • @ennui406 Well, he is 54.

  • i lke the fact that he admits to dying his hair, and admits that its dumb. do you know penn? tell him i said hes the TITS

  • I got that album as a kid after seeing George on flip Wilson, I almost died laughing and had to hear more, I have loved him ever since and still sing that great love song , it goes something like: I left my sinuses in Arizona , I left my liver in Peru ,well I left my kidney for a summer in Sidney and I'm leaving my heart to you. Thanks George for the great laughs and making us think.

  • No one will ever replace George, no one.

  • GEORGE CARLIN is what we call THE BEST.

  • It's great to see this record appreciated. I got Take offs and put ons back when I was around 12. I got it from one of these record clubs from a magazine. I think I still have it.

  • Smothers brothers had balls too

    those days are GONE!

  • see what Penn's hero George Carlin had to say about 9-11 elsewhere on youtube

    he had balls

  • I think George Carlin was a gift to humanity. You too Penn.

  • I miss George too!

  • TRUTHERRRRRRR

  • Like someone seeking truth is a bad thing?

    You think that phsycology is going to work this time?

    Kennedy was one thing, and not forgotten,

    But murdering all those fire fighters on 911,

    and all those people in Iraq and Afghanistan?

    and destroying the USA? You were told not to oppress the stranger,

    you Khazaroach piece of dung.

  • it makes me sick to think i have to live the rest of my life not being able to see the next george carlin hbo special. i can hear him anytime i want bcuz i have internet radio and one of the stations is radio carlin. i thank Joe every day that George Carlin was here to call us on our bullshit. thank you George, you might have known how much your humor helped, but you couldnt have known just how much you were loved and respected, because we could never find the words.(like you could)

  • To the layman a few lines back: I would guess that the point of these videos is so that Penn can keep in touch, to some degree, with his fan-base; and I (being a fan myself) appreciate them.

    As to the point of this Specific video, he was referring to the influence that George Carlin's legacy has had on comedy.

    Wherever George Carlin is, I don't think he is "screaming up at us" from "down there" -- rather: IF there were a god, I think he would be the First to appreciate George Carlin's genius.

  • George Carlin and Bill Hicks: Legends!

  • i own every George Carlin LP vinal concert great stuff u ever need a rip let me know

  • I'm old enought to remember a clean cut George Carlin, in a suit. He did the tonight show without swearing, and was , as you said, GREAT.

  • George Carlin was a thinking person, Penn is the same way, they are smart people that know what they are talking about. Nobody words "the BullShit of the world" like they can

  • Carlin was great, loved the Carlin at Carnegie HBO Special.

    The bad guys are not only in corporations, government practically invented the bad guy. Social security is merely a government run ponzi scheme.

  • George Carlin was amazing!

    The YouTube video "Religion is Bullshit" is a classic.

  • Oh dear. Another who thinks Invisible Cloud Father gave Palestine to the mythological ancestors of European Jews thousands of years ago.

    Amnesty International just condemned Israel for war crimes in their recent gaza incursion. Zionism = Palestinian holocaust, with Stars of David instead of Swastikas.

  • Penn, I was a child of the 60's too and I loved George Carlin from the very first time I ever saw him. And then I watched him evolve from the suit and tie era through to the hippie movement and then eventually the mature HBO guy. He was always brilliant and he always hit a nail right on the head. We will all miss him!! Penn, we look to you to continue carrying the torch that influenced you.

  • That's funny - I love that record! Several years ago, I felt the same way and found it available (through Amazon i think).

    It's not Carlin as you might know him, but it is GREAT. If you like FM & AM, this is more of the same, really. Wonderful Whino and the Hippy Dippy Weather man. Great Classic Stuff.

    It's interesting to contrast this album with his comedy of his last few decades. While insightful, I wish he could have sounded like he was having as much fun as when making this record.

  • Nice fire extinguisher! He peeks around the corner as if to say "Hello?" :)

  • you're lame. spell bitch :)

  • RIP george carlin

  • You can't rest in peace when you're dead! You're dead, not napping!

    Sorry, couldn't resist a carlinesque rant.

  • Ok then, be dead in peace. how is that?

  • everyone watch the "tvlegends" interview with george carlin that pops up in the related video things. it's so awesome.

  • I came back to this vid just to say that you were right. What a freakin awesome vid. Thumbs up.

  • Yup.

    >"If Penn Jillette were a true atheist he would advocate giving the Palestinians their land back. Like fellow cultural Jew/mainstream media errand boy Bill Maher, Jillette mocks all cultural beliefs EXCEPT ZIONISM, the dogma that European Jews have a right to Palestine because thousands of years ago their INVISIBLE GENOCIDAL CLOUD FATHER promised it to their mythical ancestors, according to their big book of bloodsoaked, racist, sexist, homophobic fairytales."

  • If it's your house and you move away, and you take an apartment in the big city. Can you still go back to your house if you didn't sell it? Well the land in the mid east always belonged to the Jews first ! They had to move away to save their lives when others moved in to threaten them. They have since wanted to come home and legally they have the right.

  • Yup.

    >>>""This country is finished."

    "The bad guys won a long time ago."

    -- George Carlin

    "The bad guys" meaning the corporate/regime fascist fucks Penn Jillettte shills for. No wonder he wants to redirect his audience to George Carlin's early nonpolitical schtick about hippies in the 1960s.

    George Carlin evolved into one of the bravest most astute commentators this country has seen. Penn Jillette just parrots the propaganda of his handlers at the Cato Institute propaganda mill."

  • or he could just be mentioning it because everything carlin did was good and that early (albiet less controversial) material has been long forgotten.

  • Sumner Redstone's fat dancing monkey.

    Sumner Redstone is Penn's master.

  • I really miss George Carlin.

  • me too

  • I didn't know George Carlin but I think I love him. I've never had something resonate so much as his 'invisible man in the sky' act. I was quite young but it was crystal clear - it made perfect sense. It was the first encounter I had ever had with atheism and, aside from making me laugh so hard I cried, it felt as true to me as anything I had ever heard. He quieted the conflict in my head and made me feel safe somehow. I know that's cheesy but it's true.

  • Word.

    littleoutrage and macnutz??

  • Everything George knew about how America is run, manipulative brainwashing, 9/11 and everything else, is stuff you would call crazy bullshit conspiracys on your bullshit show?

  • haha, laughed pretty hard at your clarification of your kids not being digital.

  • Carlin's take on 9/11 was "the government does what it wants. It doesn't investigate itself. A govt 9/11 investigation would be a whitewash like with JFK."

    Penn Jillette's take on any questioning the Bush regime's 9/11 fairytale was "push them down a flight of stairs" and any seeing the Warren Commission bullshit for what it is as "conspiracy nuts."

    Penn Jillette has made quite a fortune since hooking up with the ExxonMobil-funded Cato Instiute right wing whack job propaganda mill.

  • yea do a rebutal to your bullshit 9/11 your too inteligent to believe the official spin.

  • I take the south park version of what happened at 9/11.

  • South Park is totally ingenious. It makes compelling arguments and totally defines my feelings on things, whether I want it to or not. That show is way smarter than me.

  • Agreed 100%

  • Carlin = truth.

    >>"Do YouTube searches for:

    george carlin you have no rights this country is finished 9/11 truth

    His last work & observations were the culmination of a lifetime living w/ eyes wide open, stating the obvious to the end about the murderous criminal fucks in government & corporate boardrooms while media shills take the money to distract & propagandize.

    It would be a shame were Carlin's later work forgotten or erased in a rush to remember his early pop success."

  • Carlin affected our lives, comedicly, politically, and socially, unlike most flamers I've been reading on here, Penn actually does have intelligent opinions, and insightful perspectives.

    Admittedly, he does bow to a whim on some opinions, but I guarantee that anybody would in his position.

    Saying that him mentioning Carlin in kind is fucked up, is disrespectful to both, but I guess that an idiot behind a keyboard really doesnt care what opinion people take of him, as long as he makes noise.

  • Penn = Limbaugh w/ chin pubes.

    >>>"The topic is George Carlin, truthteller. And this fat fuck shill's attempt to cover up the truth."

    >>>"This fat fuck invoking George Carlin's name is like Alan Dulles pulling a long face at JFK's funeral, or Bush vowing to hunt down Bin Laden. Shameless piece of shit errand boys for grocery clerk sociopaths."

    >>>"George Carlin spoke the truth about the tyrannical govenrment and media lies. Penn Jillette is a dancing monkey for these criminal fucks."

  • I have some old carlin records too. He is the most relavent person ive ever seen, or heard.

  • YEAH!

    >>>"This from Penn Jillette, the same unfunny hack who said that if you see anybody questioning the Bush regime you should "push them down a flight of stairs." Way to piss on George Carlin's grave. ExxonMobil-funded Cato Institute corporate shill."

    >>>"Toward the end George Carlin spoke the truth about what was really going on with lying scumbags who run government and corporate media. According to Carlin, Penn Jillette would be just another lying corporate whore."

  • George Carlin had a talent of telling jokes as if he was telling them for the first time. I love the album Killer Carlin. I read in the newspaper that his daughter thought his comedy was getting a little bit on the dark side, I agree that his hbo show Life is Worth Losing tour, was a little dark, not him, but some of the subjects.Thanks Penn, your a great guy,thanks for the vidieos and for the enterainment.

  • time for penn and teller to switch gimmicks? penn quiet may be nice

  • He lives in a 'Free Democratic' Country Man ! He can Say whatever he wants - If you dont want to hear what he has to say - then put one and one together - Dont come here !

    He has as much right to make a Video and put it on YouTube as You Do.

  • LOL

    >>>"This from Penn Jillette, the same unfunny hack who said that if you see anybody questioning the Bush regime you should "push them down a flight of stairs." Way to piss on George Carlin's grave. ExxonMobil-funded Cato Institute corporate shill."

    >>>"Toward the end George Carlin spoke the truth about what was really going on with lying scumbags who run government and corporate media. According to Carlin, Penn Jillette would be just another lying corporate whore."

  • LMAO. Yes, how dare you cherish the memory of a true voice for freedom -- let some lying unfunny hack corporate/regime shill (and his anonymous fluffers on an internet comment page) revise and rewrite your lifelong experience with the glory that was George Carlin.

    The world is long past knowing this hasbeen fat fuck is a mercenary disinformation specialist. Or did you really think that power-hungry billionaires pay him millions to babble about whatever pops into his dented pumpkin head?

  • i too miss george carlin

  • Direct younger generations away from Carlin's, smarter, funnier later work since it is a critique of your bloodsucking corporate masters.

    >>>"Yeah, Penn, plug early George Carlin making fun of hippies, because later George Carlin comprises rants speaking truth about the genocidal US government, the Military-Industrial Complex, and lying dancing monkey shills in the mainstream media like Penn Jillette. This video is a new low when it looked like this lying fat fuck couldn't sink any lower."

  • The pro comments to all these videos have the strong odor of Penn's fat little menopausal publicist.

    >>>"This from Penn Jillette, the same unfunny hack who said that if you see anybody questioning the Bush regime you should "push them down a flight of stairs." Way to piss on George Carlin's grave. ExxonMobil-funded Cato Institute corporate shill."

  • Can't forget the Indian Seargent routine Penn..

  • Just when you thought this anything-for-a-buck lying sack of shit couldn't sink any lower ...

    >>>"Toward the end George Carlin spoke the truth about what was really going on with lying scumbags who run government and corporate media. According to Carlin, Penn Jillette would be just another lying corporate whore."

  • You know what I like the most about this, its real, its a vlog and its done well. Great thoughts its coherent and insightful.

  • ummm, wtf is wrong with bc and tonz? Penn dares to talk the truth from his heart like GC did and that is bad? Some people need something to hate and feel self righteous about it.

  • That is not what he said at all. You really need to watch that episode again, and put your ideological lens somewhere fucking else. He was referring to the mostly delusional leaders of the 9/11 truth movement and in particular the author of one of most idiotic pieces of baseless trash in recent memory.

  • Yes, Penn is an absolute cunt!

  • Toward the end George Carlin spoke the truth about what was really going on with lying scumbags who run government and corporate media. According to Carlin, Penn Jillette would be just another lying corporate whore.

  • I have that G.C. album that Penn is talking about. I'm so old, I bought the album when it was new!

  • Woah mayne haha

    Many harsh words have been spoken lol.

    The guys just paying a respect to George Carlin brother. Its all good lol.

  • hahahahhahahaa wow I don't think that you could be more of a stupid, insignificant cunt. Enjoy your bitter lonely existance you burnt out 60s-like conspiracy theory loving douchebag.

  • Yeah, Penn, plug early George Carlin making fun of hippies, because later George Carlin comprises rants speaking truth about the genocidal US government, the Military-Industrial Complex, and lying dancing monkey shills in the mainstream media like Penn Jillette. This video is a new low when it looked like this lying fat fuck couldn't sink any lower.

  • Dancing monkey? What the fuck are you guys going on about? What has Penn lied about?

  • Because Penn disagrees with you on some issues you act this way? Way to discourse, way to challenge his ideas. Call him a shill., a toady? Prove it. Better than that though, make a reasoned, evidence based argument that refutes Penn's position on which you and he disagree.

    I disagree with Penn on global climate change and the importance of conservation. However, I find what he has to say challenging where we disagree and always edifying.

    Grow the fuck up.

  • penn>>>>>>> George Carlin was fully awake of what was happening in the world..he knew all the secret societies , he knew the whole elite like I do.

    HELP US PATRIOTS OUT BRO , YOU HAVE A LOT OF INFLUENCE ON THE PUBLIC , THE PEOPLE WILL LISTEN , BECOME THE NEXT GEORGE CARLIN!!

    DOC

  • George Carlin spoke the truth about the tyrannical govenrment and media lies. Penn Jillette is a dancing monkey for these criminal fucks.

  • Thanks Penn. I'm the same way with George. I'm just 21 and I've heard all of his stuff more times than I'd dare to guess.

  • Efreeti ....good you like Carlin..go deeper into your research of what George knew. there is alot of secret societies that is very , very evil !

    the round table

    the committee of 300

    builderberg

    CFR

    illuminati

    freemasons

    the list is huge - please research!!

    peace

  • Shut up about "God" you brainwashed small minded zealots. Think for yourself, and life will be more clearer than some mass hypnotic bullshit you are accustomed too. This is about a Great Man, speaking about a Great Man.

  • If I dug a little, I'm sure I could see where this debate started and what started it. Unfortunately, I'm so offended by the fact that I had to go back 4 pages and STILL didn't find the epicenter, that I gave up and decided to throw my 2 cents in. SHUT UP! Penn put up an incredible video about this wonderful man who inspired me and so many others to question authority, think for yourself, and fucking laugh when you fart... and you're having a religious debate. It's ridiculous; move it on out.

  • Penn! Why do you contact George's daughter and see about getting that old album released on CD. If not that put a torrent up.

  • It's here on you tube download it here.

  • watch?v=kaki7jeHauM

  • It's amazing how stuff like that stays with you. I'm told that my father watched Star Trek with me when I was almost a baby. Later, as a teenager, an episode came on, and I didn't know anything about the show, but as soon as it started, I could suddenly recite every line that was about to come up.

  • I don't really believe in re-incarnation, but every so often the planet is graced with someone like Mark Twain or George Carlin. They are the closest thing to saints that we ever get.

  • RIP George Carlin

  • i miss him too

  • hmm, thought it was a nice video. You guys better cool it on the rants before you hurt those fingers.........then your sodomy days are over you fucks

  • carlin diddn't pass. he died.

  • I hope you play Nillson's The Point for your kids too.

  • Sir Isaac Newton was born in a different era; hence he did not have the information available to him that I and you have today. As I am sure you can tell from my writing Im not a highly intellectual person, but know far more about natural selection and the Universe than Sir Isaac. An average child can learn a lot just through watching the Discovery channels, with information on planet Earth etc. I have no idea what I am trying to say but said it anyway.

  • When Carlin died, that was one of the most depressing deaths I've dealt with. I'm gonna miss waiting every 2-3 years to really gut laugh again.

  • "Even before George Carlin was good, he was so great. I miss him so much." Yep. That about sums it up.

  • George Carlin was my Pope....

    ....on matters on faith he was infallible.

  • I wonder what Penn thinks about there not being a mention of both Carlin and Mark Twain being atheists when Carlin was given the Mark Twain award that was just aired on PBS? They at least played a clip of George Carlin ripping on religion but I thought it was a significant thing that was not mentioned.

  • Dane Cook is not "funny"

  • Then you're a fucking idiot bwilliam614. Dane cook is a hack, and is one of the least funny comics out there. If it wasn't for oldies like George Carlin, people like Dane Cook wouldn't have jobs and would probably working at MacDonalds.

  • Dude, like Dane Cook if you want. And don't listen to Carlin if you don't like him.

    But celebrating anyone's death makes you an asshole.

  • "But celebrating anyone's death makes you an asshole. "

    The irony of that is that Carlin would probably chew you up and spit you out for saying so.

  • He'd give him the finger and say "Blow it out your ass!"

  • Probably so, but I doubt Carlin would deny that sometimes he could be an asshole, too.

    He wouldn't deny it. He'd just assert everyone's right to be an asshole sometimes.

  • Hell yeah. I think Carlin was proud to be an asshole, and found our PC sensitivities hilarious and absurd.

  • Dane Cook is a loser. Dane Cook flea on the nutsack of the dog in the room where George Carlin is banging your mom. Dane is not original, he is a con artsist.

  • Indeed his material sucks, the only decent material he has, he stole from other comics like Louis C.K., And he gets laughs by squealing like a girl in his jokes. He should be the host of Blue's Clues, Not on a stage attempting to make ppl laugh. But no one will ever top Carlin, the absolute greatest comedian to ever live. R.i.P.

  • Dane Cook is a failure. He's just the flavor of the month, so to speak.

  • he will be missed.

  • George Carlin was my hero. If I ever idolized anybody, it was him. I spoke of him incessantly at odd times and anybody who knew me knew of my affections for that man. The day he died, I had people calling me offering their condolences, which I didn't expect at all, as if he was my father or something who had just passed away. It was wonderful because I was crushed in my own way, but that's literally how important he was to my life.

  • george carlin was the best...good job penn

  • That's cool because you can feel the raw emotions in Penn's words...

    I dig it! Thanks for making me think tonight

  • It's great to know that a guy whose work I totally respect is respected by another guy whose work I respect.

  • Great, great tribute.

  • I really miss George Carlin. His death was like losing family.

  • Aw, don't worry.

    I'm sure he's down there, smilin' up at ya.

  • I'm pretty sure he's in that garage in New Jersey. ;)

  • Penn, thanks for this. I am not ashamed to say I LOVED George Carlin. Recently, I went on a 12 hour road trip and I played my mp3 player on the way. I have every Carlin album he ever did on there and I know very well the bit you're talking about.

    The man was a comedy god. Carlin, Pryor, and Bruce invented modern comedy. I got really choked up when he died.

    I ask myself often why someone as great and as important as George Carlin must die, but a douche like George Bush still lives.

  • We all miss him. He was important to all of us.

  • ok ok we get it , we get it , life experiences are what make up your identity (instead of commodities )and george carlin is awesome yes yes we know that already , gosh BOOORINGGG.

    jk

  • I didn't always agree with Carlin but I always knew where he was coming from. He'll be missed.

  • "Not- not my children, my children aren't digital, the, the- uh- music is."

    He gets so hung up sometimes.
