    couldn't stand him when I was young, but grew to appreciate his style and fuck, he was funny. RIP.

    Annoying guy. But where does the schtick begin. Or end.

    His podcast is great. It’s about old Hollywood and show business in general and they got some really good guests while they were still alive.

    I spent a lot of time in front of the Up All Night small screen.

    He was funny. It was cringey, low brow, filthy funny that some times made you hate yourself for laughing at it but definitely funny. I can’t think of too many comedians that stayed committed to their bit as much as he did. And his friends say he was a real sweetheart in his private life so there’s that.

    2012 CNN op-ed where he addresses cancel culture a few years before it was all the rage:

    RIP

    As a Howard Stern fan since high school, I grew to really love Gottfried. Dude has over 120 appearances on Stern and every one was hilarious. One of the last great comics who didn't give a shit about how offensive or ruthless his jokes were.

    Between him, Bob Saget and Norm MacDonald passing, it's been a tough year for old school comics.

    cancel culture is unfunny assholes being called out for being unfunny? Jesus yer an idiot. Nothing like a media nobody sucking his own dick using the excuse” I’m in the know, don’t go” to excuse unfunny.


    its like Conan O’Brien’s tribute to Gilbert saying he went to a great show where Gilbert just said “thank you” for 10 minutes. Too those “in the know” funny, memorable, likely to others just a turd on stage

    ^ The soap collection from all the hotels was the only weird thing about that doc, otherwise a normal guy living the condo life in NYC with hot loving wife. Not a bad way to live.
