Craig Ferguson returns to the show with a bit more piss than vinegar this time. Life and how to make sense of it is dissected and celebrated, with a dash of good will to all.
Reason # 1,378 why I've come to appreciate Internet shows more than most television shows lately. Enjoy these types of frank discussions without all of the pomp (and commercials for E.D.).
I was thinking that the other day. You don't get TV shows where two intelligent guys have an interesting conversation for an hour. It wouldn't rate well - the ignorant masses don't want it.
I really miss Craig Ferguson! Just imagine him coming on TV after the late show? I think America would take a collective deep breath and just laugh at the absurdity of it all.
Michael Bast I love Craig's LLS and I love Colbert, but I actually really don't think I'd like to see them in succession. It just wouldn't gel for me. Letterman was different.
I never ever sit this long to watch people talking and I hardly ever even watch movies but I knew Craig Ferguson was somebody worth watching and I have some time. Now he just inspired me to get crackin' on my science fiction short stories and I really related to what he was saying about the discipline of short stories. I think I'm in love.
Ok. I was really upset that I hadn’t known about this chat show before this week (we’re in May 2020 now), but I’m actually thankful now that I stop to think about it. What a perfect time to discover this treasure trove ❤️❤️❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼 #ThankYou
I've always liked Craig Ferguson...Now I REALLY like him!...And the fact that he doesn't give two shites whether I like him or not, makes me like him even more!!!:)
I'm beginning to start to consider thinking that maybe perhaps and/or possibly you might be on to something like a path or journey or even a voyage that ends with you having something not unlike what one or another could call under the right circumstances...a point!:)
What a great interview. I just recently found Craig Ferguson on RU-vid. I was raising kids during his entire late show and never saw a single one or heard of him. I grew up on David Letterman and loved him. Now I wish I would have known about Craig because I really love the shows. Better late than never I guess.
Chad Christian Letterman's rise in late night was before my time, he was already the elder statesman by the time I was old enough to watch but its fascinating to see how he revolutionised the format and just how influential he was. Craig doesn't get the recognition that Letterman did but I feel like Craig's work was like a spiritual successor to what Letterman was all about in the early days. Like he pushed the boundaries even further, in the same way Letterman had before him.
Mr. Ferguson is the type of American we were meant to be: Honest in the good and bad of his beliefs, Passionate in the right versus wrong of the human condition, and Humble regarding his own flaws. I wish that for him, only for him, we could elect a President that was not born an American...I would vote for him. He is a descent man.
I love this show for its laughter and for being so down to earth. Thank you for making a very rough and stressful week easier to handle. Laughter is truly the best medicine.
i am inspired! i am getting closer to the end of this interview and so far am recognizing, this interview just keeps getting better and better. thank you thank you......
I love KPCS. It's better than any talk show you can find on television. I love Craig and still miss him every weeknight at 12:30. Thank you Kevin for doing this so well
56.30ish. Spot on, Craig. Love and discipline are opposite sides of the same coin. Time more parents learned that we're parents with responsibility to raise the next generation. Not superannuated children who are just here to be teens or pre teens forevermore.
Craig is so clever, modest, handsome, genuine and Scots. Love him most because of his lack of ego and he doesn't have a phoney bone in his body. Welcome back to Scotland lad. ♥️ 🥰 😍
This is my 3rd time viewing/listening to this interview. I love this episode! I've listened to it twice on the Stitcher app, and now I'm here to watch what I've listened to. I'm a fan fan fan! (Plus, Kevin and I played pool on the "Truth or Consequences, NM" movie shoot once so I'm in for the long haul, baby!)
I learned in Catholic school that the camel passing through the eye of a needle is actually a reference to some gates that a camel would have to pass through but they would have to be unloadedof their cargo and so it was a metaphor about men unloading their worldly goods before entering the kingdom of heaven.
I enjoy your show via RU-vid and the requisite VPN needed to watch it here in Beijing, China. Only discovered Craig Ferguson after he already left Late Night as I've been over here for nearly 20 years and kind of out of touch with what's on TV in the US or pretty much anywhere else. I binge watched every one of Craig's LLShows I could also on RU-vid. Unlike most TV I enjoyed his show and was sad to see him retire from that show.
I never got Kevin before I took the time to listen to him. I had no opinion either way. Now I have a deep respect. I hope to see him perform some day. Great job team helping Kevin put out this fun and, to me, compelling content.
we need craig ferguson as he is in this interview: no bullshit -- we need this man in our lives because he is a perfect (imperfect = perfect in this case) vehicle for expressing the common sense sentiment. I love him and I tune in to hear/see anything out of his mouth because he is a good person. bottom line, he is a good person (flaws and all) and he is very bright and entertaining. I respect him. Thanks to Kevin Pollak for making these chats happen -- they bring joy to my life!
I’m from his home town and get the upper classes thing. Not that it’s exclusive to us at all of course. But unlike Craig age hasn’t softened my prejudice, likely due to my horizons not being broadened as much Craig’s. Point being I resent the upper classes and resent myself for holding that prejudice.
I can’t reconcile the punk references with the patriotism, it just doesn’t mesh. I love Craig, he’s so refreshing as a talk show host, and so handsome, but don’t think I’ll delve into his seemingly Libertarian POV in his books.
He looks like one of those guys my Grandpa used to play cards with at the bar. All the old boys back then wore these "utility greys" like they all worked for the power company or city shop but had no labels on em.
Yup I know this vid has been available a while but thankYOU for pointing out that none of the accepted views of possible futures are close to the expanse of ways of thinking about poss-i-ble futures. If I don't continue either this me life I long for all others to continue seeing beyond the emaciated status quo. IX
I will watch fuckin anything with Craig Ferguson in it. He's one of the best "celebrity" ever. Too poor to have Netflix, so here I am watching him talk sitting down. I know for fact he will make it interesting anyways. Long live hobos! Balls.
Let me get this straight: you've got lav mikes and the sound is picked up by a cell phone or something? Check your cables, guys. Otherwise, great human interaction at the "celebrity" level, as always. Glad I've discovered your show, Kevin. And love your main squeeze, too, whynot :) Brains, man... brains... that's always where the highest electricity happens. Keep up the good work!
Richard Jeni's bit about Charles Manson was fantastic. "Ya know what Charles Manson had going for him much more so than almost every woman I've dated? Manson had the decency to make it crystal clear to you how crazy he was WHEN YA FIRST MEET 'EM!!"
Amen on the you're an American comment!..worst thing in comedy to preach a pro political side..its comedy..we all want to laugh!..thank you Craig Ferguson!!
