Ayoooooo welcome to another video featuring Leek as the Shirtless Savage! YouTube took down my last video, I’m tryna be a good boy 😉 Like, […]
EJAE on the dads who love “Golden” and how the song was never meant to be just a “kids’ song.” To learn more about this […]
His humble empathy truly shines here, and stands in glaring contrast to the cynicism of Hollywood.
Huge fan of bo. But to characterize the election of a president as a ‘cultural failure’ of the country is just a really unfortunate take in its tacit derision of literally half the country
As much as he’s probably talking about his fundamental personal disagreement with the president of the time, it’s also entirely possible he’s talking about the electoral divide itself, the caricature that represents two-party politics, that voting isn’t based on beliefs, but rather beliefs are shaped to feel like belonging to the tribe, yknow? The cultural failure, to me, is how Americans felt/feel so wholly opposite to their supposed counterpart. Again, Bo is probably talking strictly in terms of his personal distaste for the results, but the dichotomy of how a president in a two-party system is viewed in America is in itself worthy of dissection as a point of “cultural failure”. It’s trying to explain something as black-and-white, while reality is utterly and completely grey
Beautiful opening shot!
3:39 Bo show cases more of his learned intelligence by referencing the movie “Wag the Dog”.
I’d be lying if I said I didn’t think of that film once in a while, out of no where. It’s about politics and the lengths we’ll go to to lie to cover horrible truths or to gain popularity and votes and how the people deal with news. Watch it. Bo & I recommend .
I HAD to watch for my film degree but it’s still a very important piece for anyone that’s also entertaining, eye-opening, & revealing
It never fails to amaze me how smart and articulate Bo is. Never ever.
I really hope my image of Bo as this great guy can stay that way. It was such a let down when Louis C.K. turned out to be garbage
How was he garbage though?
OK but imagine this: A “The Office” spin-off show about teens directed by Bo Burnhan and Bj Novak!!!!!!!
I compare Bo with Robbie Williams being alive again.
i want to watch the list of yt videos he watched.
Are they getting enough oxygen?
Why do I feel like most of the people at this table aren’t exactly looking at Bo with respect in their eyes? It’s almost like they’re mostly just humoring him. And Bo Burnham is not someone to be “just humored” by others.
