Jimmy Carr Doesn't Think America is Collapsing Like the Roman Empire

Taken from JRE #2045 w/Jimmy Carr:

Good to see a comedian who can have an actual conversation and doesn't feel the need to crack a joke every 30 seconds to maintain reputation

[flamingdonut]

Well, that's my daily dose of thinking about the Roman empire.

[dogefromthefuture]

I worked in a high security state prison for years, and it changed me. I realized banning things just created massive revenue streams for organized criminal organizations

[NathanielHellerstein]

The Roman Empire became a church; the British empire became a bank; and I speculate that the American Empire will become a cinema.

I had no idea Jimmy Carr was so thoughtful, and I had no idea he'd have such a hopeful outlook on America. We're always bombarded with such negativity when it comes to the U.S., that just hearing someone with a positive outlook makes me feel good. I wasn't expecting that. I hope the entirety of the western world continues to prosper.

[Nagl]

The point about the British Empire becoming a bank is for sure 100% true

[mariocosta]

Always good to see 2 awesome individuals praising my country. Much love from Portugal

[aWHEELone]

"...sorry, I'm from Great Britain!" 🤣🤣🤣 I spent my drink across the room

[Ezzxe]

Came for Joe Rogan, stayed for Jimmy Carr, smiled about the compliments about my lovely little country and left with food for thought about how empires transform and never actually end...

[martinkem]

Finally! a coherent comedian, it is refreshing to see someone who is measured about the state of things.

[semenhydenko]

Crazy how many comedians are actually more sensible than most people.

[Tom-rezo]

As an American, its nice to hear praise about the place I grew up in and shaped me into the person I am today. As opposed to the constant hate and calling attention to our flaws that we usually get from within and foreign celebrities.
Currently living in Japan. The fact that there are people who dream of visiting the US in my neighborhood, and have this lovely image of it really makes me miss home.

[jonathanjrod]

The Roman Senate didn't think Roma was collapsing either.

[Questtt]

Great to see this other side of Jimmy Carr…measured, insightful.

[brookss]

"America hasn't seen it's finest day yet." What a wonderfully fresh message in this day and age.

[nevillemignot]

Lisbon is about my favorite livable city in Europe, great hear another visitor speak so highly of the place.

[NEO_RedPill_]

Jimmy is so damn eloquent. Getting to see him speak in a normal conversation kind of gives you a window into his mind. I’ve said it before, you have to be intelligent to be really funny

[furrymonkeything]

This was inspiring to listen to. Jo and Jimmy are not two people I would put together, yet they bounce off each other so well. Didn't know Jimmy had this wealth of knowledge.

[shirley]

Drugs in prisons is proof there is NO war on drugs.

[italpeel]

Absolutely brilliant podcast.
I hope Jimmy has Joe on again in the near future.
