Stephen Fry in America Podcast

A podcast from the filming of 'Stephen Fry in America'

Britains comic genius, Stephen Fry, travels around each of Americas states in a black cab in order to discover, in his own inimitable style, what makes the country unique and to get under the skin of American life.

His journey across the vast country takes him to a whiskey distillery in Kentucky; lava fields in Hawaii; an Amish community in Wisconsin and a brothel in Nevada, as well as hunting in New York State; sailing on an Americas Cup boat in Rhode Island; basket weaving with Navajo Indians and meeting environmental activists in Oregon.

Stephen is shown the country by its proud citizens as he drives across the continent uncovering the idiosyncrasies that makes each state individual and the similarities that make America distinct.

@Supermassively

Yes, ofc it is a conspiracy,that a bring on now widely accepted criticism of the press in the early waryears and then positions of Marx about the controll of the means of production.

Ignorant buffoon, read a book.

[Supermassively]

@shurednichso Bullshit populist propaganda that you've been spoon fed all your life. The Left constantly screws over the "working class" by destroying the employment rate and raising taxes on individuals and companies (who then can no longer afford to hire or pay their employees well). You know nothing but Leftism in your country, as it has taken over Europe as a whole, so you have no understanding of the spectrum.

You really just sound like a mindless, uneducated conspiracy theorist.

@Supermassively

It is so funny,that you dont know shit about even the word "left". Left means to be on the side of the working people.

I wonder, which major Channel in the US is saying,that the controll of the means of production should be in the working classes hand? Oh, not one? Wow, surprise.

Which big channel said that the embedded "journalism" was another way to propagate war and refused to accept those kind of acces? Not one,eh? Just examples.

Ignorant buffoon.

@shurednichso Rupert Murdoch doesn't own all of the news channels here - just one of them. The rest are owned by the far-left GE-Universal and the far-left Ted Kennedy, and the moderately-left national networks. You know nothing about this country.

@Supermassively

Please try to not look like a generic ignorant. Rupert Murdoch , the biggest media mogul in the US, alone propagates with his papers and tv channels massively a right wing economical issues.

[Supermassively]

@shurednichso You don't know much about the US, do you?

[effigytormented]

@lamestguyintown What our government, or those stupid people they show in cities. This is a really big place, it gets pretty diverse.

[shurednichso]

@HTHAMMACK1

In fact, the European main big media is right wing, as is the US media. Which you dont know, because there are FAR right media channels and papers in the US.

[Scootertuner1000]

@HTHAMMACK1 Wow you're an asshole

[HTHAMMACK1]

@lamestguyintown I'd bet you don't know a frickin' thing about America. Just another dumbass European believe all of the BS fed to him by his liberal European media.
