I've seen many hours of Norm on the Net, among which are the fine ones above this post.

I was saddened the other day when I saw a link announcing his death.

I later saw a Daily Caller headline about his cancer. Later yet I heard Tim Pool explain that he kept it out of the news 'cause that was part of his way of life.

Very much missed by many of us.

I remembered this thread as I listened to this, among others, and decided to add this one:

Here's another one. (Kinda political)
You don't have to be particularly religious to recognize that it's not brave to mock religion, especially in front of those crowds.

quote:

You do tend to throw a little cold water on the proceedings. Were you coached at all by producers as to how to assess the contestants?

No, I’m just giving my opinion. We all are. I mean, Roseanne said she wanted to be meaner at one point, but she just likes a lot more people than I do. I try to just point out how the joke could be better or if the material is problematic or false in its premise or structure.

Right, like the comedian who made a joke comparing someone quoting Bible verses on a subway to him quoting Harry Potter passages. That joke really irritated you. Why?

Oh, just the smugness. There are a lot more hack “smart” comedians nowadays and atheist comedians. It’s so dull. To be talking about being an atheist living in West Hollywood is not the bravest stance to take. If a guy went up and said, “Jesus Christ is our lord and savior,” I’d say, “Damn, that guy’s brave!” Or, “The infidels must die under the sword of Allah!” I’d go, “!@#$, that’s a brave comic.” So that got under my skin. Also the idiocy of comparing the New Testament to Harry Potter. I knew because I read all the books with my kid that J.K. Rowling said she’s a Christian and based the books on the New Testament. I thought, now you’ve really stepped into an area that you don’t know what you’re talking about at all.



quote:

Anthony jesselnik (the host, who is a great comedian on his own right) said he hated doing this show because like norm says all these comedians were smug and unfunny. He also said the best bits were norm destroying comedians but that those would never make the final edit. You can see him look bored when rosanne calls the guy brave and immediately grin when norm starts !@#$ on the guy.

Try focusing in the careers of unwoke comics.
