Since we’re quoting one of my heroes George Carlin today, you can’t tell, but I am shaking throughout the interview we did in October 23, 2007. Starts with RW umbrage over Dumbledore being gay:
George Carlin and I moved on to Arlen Specter doing standup, and to Rockefeller and George W. Bush
And lastly George Carlin and I circled back to the necessity of using a sledgehammer of humor on politicians. And after the show he said “I think of a lot of topical political jokes I really can’t use. Can I send them to you?”

And I damn near fainted.
