Listening to this right now. So far, a good bit on the evils of squealers, leading to him imagining Jesus beating the fuck out of Judas for ratting on him and demanding the thirty bucks.

One of the local radio guys had Kelly Carlin on the other day and it was a great interview. Of course, I have already forgotten the highlights of the conversation, but she is very dedicated to keeping his legacy going. What I wouldn't give to have him around during this shitshow of an election season.

I've read people claim that he'd be pro-Trump because Carlin was against political correctness. Lord, talk about misunderstanding the basic humanism that guided Carlin. I listened to her memoir several months ago. A very fucked up childhood, being raised by addicts and taking on a certain parental role with her parents. So it seems natural that she'd be protective of him going forward.

Mine too. :(

I have a secret theory that a sign of comedic maturity is realizing how good Terry Jones was compared to the flashier members.
