Title: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver
Post by: benjipwns on February 24, 2015, 02:05:58 AM: Just thought it'd be easier to make a catch all thread for the segments they post.

Post by: toku on February 24, 2015, 02:34:37 AM: I enjoy having a thread for it now. I really enjoy this format he's settle on. Where he opens with a bunch of smaller stuff then has one big "feature" for the rest of the episode.

I never enjoyed the interview segments of both Colbert and Daily. Wish there were far fewer of them and focused more on stories.

Post by: Great Rumbler on February 24, 2015, 06:23:32 PM: Last Week Tonight has been pretty consistently great, probably one of the best shows on TV to actually get in-depth, informative information about current issues/events.

I don't think Stewart has done stand up regularly in years, maybe decades since his MTV show and stint replacing Larry Sanders. Oliver does tours every year, so his segments and bits naturally just slide in that delivery.

When you get down to it, most serious news shows are really just entertainment disguised as news. Colbert, Stewart, and Oliver are more like news disguised as entertainment, which works far better.

Cry me a river. I got an injury while performing for my college, they didn't do shit.
I knew what I was getting into. Got a scholarship for an ability, lose that ability, lose the scholarship. It's the same for artists, musicians and drama. Hell, even academic scholarships require you to keep those academics up. Why should this be any different? Gonna have a hard time getting me on your side on this one. Music performance students practice 5 hours a day, and several concerts a week on top of all the school work and they do it without special tutors or special classes for them. You don't get the opportunity to play at that level for nothing and you aren't exempt from the rules that most of the rest of the college is keeping. I get that it's a million dollar industry. My answer? Shut down the industry and start a minor league or something. Really football has nothing to do with college.

I believe that episode was 45 minutes. So that was a typical ~20 minute segment except a little bit longer.

That fashion bit was relevant to my interests. I rarely buy clothes but I prefer to spend as little as possible. How the fuck can I be sure that shit isn't made with child labor? Super inexpensive shit most likely is, but expensive stuff doesn't mean it's not child labor. For all I know that's also made with child labor only they charge a lot more for it so it won't appear cheap.

Fuck this gay earth.

Since public education can't be individualized it's the only method that administrators have to gauge "success" since the opinion of parents, students and teachers are off limits.

Really ?

Actually there seems to be two or three videos each week. One for the main segment, one for the segment after that (3 minutes or so) and one for a feature I am unsure of the name (narrated by boom voice). As far as I can tell, the whole episode gets uploaded.

EDIT : Hummm. Only seem to be the main segment plus web exclusives. Would have sweared I had seen the other ones, but maybe it was different uploaders ?

people voting out are the people that are left behind and can't compete with migrants, of course they still won't be able to compete after britain leaves because of the realities of global economies but whatever

Tbh the poor have been given too much of the blame over brexit. It wasn't just them, a lot of middle and upper class 'little englanders' voted out as well.

The difference being when shit goes tits up they'll mostly be fine, unless the country goes crazy the police strike and you have feral working class people roaming the street looking to slit necks. :o

Someone should drop John Oliver off in the middle of a poor neighborhood in Detriot.

I'm sure he will do fine.

I wish liberals would admit that blacks in black communities commit insane amounts of violence daily. But yeah, let's critique police because it's easier and safer, let's not be focusing on the root of the problem.

So are we gonna ignore the fact that the tens of thousands of homicides from blacks are killed by other blacks. Same with whites killing other white people. You know from gangs. Those guys that are stuck with the shit lifestyle from poor housing and job marketing, as well as shit education systems. That forces a number of them to a life of crime and kill the police as well as other black people. I support this too, police need to have accountability but so does the governments for not providing for poor black and hispanic neighborhoods that can prevent them from having a lethal lifestyle.

I have been contacted via mail by someone trying to recruit me. I excused myself but felt a little cowardly to not just straight up call it a scam. Don't remember which company it was but what I found the most striking is that, on top of being transparently a pyramid scam, the product description was the most snake oil shit ever (miracle cosmetic, IIRC) which is a recurring trend. Guess it meshes well with the whole corrupted new age "self help yourself a millionnaire by the power of your will, don't listen to reason or science or basic mathematics" ?

Come to think of it, there's no way Trump was watching The Daily Show, either. Black people occasionally appear on TDS, and Trump doesn't know how to work his remote control.
