Mr. Burr may or may not have a point here but his foul language makes it difficult to want to listen to his otherwise informative rant.
Super. Did he lie about his PRs, too?
Don’t be like that... this is the next George Carlin ... Excellent commentary by Burr.

Lol are you serious? Learn to manage your emotions and toughen up.
Who's Bill Burr?
He is great on talk shows, mediocre on stage. This is awful.

For real man, I listen to his podcast every week. Its so difficult to remain relevant in comedy through multiple decades and Bill Burr has managed to do it.

He's terrible. Waste of 10 minutes 47 seconds
Bill Burr is a freaking legend. One of the greatest of all time.
Loosen up some time and put him on, you will die laughing.

This particular thing is pretty boring, but I disagree about him on stage. His Netflix stand up specials are outstanding.

Bill Burr is hysterical on stage.
I did stand up in LA back in the mid 90s when Bill was also starting out. I saw him do sets at the Improv and have been following his career ever since.
I think Bill can be a hilarious stand-up and he's funny as hell in general.
But I can't stomach him much these days b/c it's true that his endless profanity, is a buzzkill.
I'm not against profanity either. Louis CK uses it and he's also hilarious.
But Bill uses F u c k every other word and it's unnecessary and annoying......and lazy IMO. That's why I never listen to his podcasts and his stand up the last 5 yrs or so has gotten progressively angrier and I don't mean that in a good way. I thought his stand-up was funnier 10 yrs ago.

puritanical nonsense. Monday Morning Podcast is great.
There's a reason you "did stand up in LA back in the 90s" and Burr is at the top of the game. You weren't funny, and he is smart and hilarious.

No, he's not. His rant schtick needs a foil to react to it or it falls flat.
Yikes. Is this what passes for commentary and comedy nowadays? People are impressed and amused by this? Come on, you have to have higher standards than this. Burr doesn't even seem to have many brain cells to scratch together, and he's devoid of wit or original thought. As for the profanity, I don't really care, except in the amount her pours on, it's a substitue for insight.

Actually, the thread was started because the OP wasn't impressed or amused by it.
And people then like to make commentary on how they don't like it.
It's just a single clip from part of a pod-cats of a comedian trying to fill time.
Bill Burr has had a number of specials and talk show appearances and small roles in TV and such.
He's doing OK.
Most of his shtick is about how people get so easily offended today.
He's on Conan a lot
