No offense to Bill Hader, but his Keith Morrison is terrible. First rule of parody is that you have to be funnier than the original. Morrison knows what he is doing; if someone put a 4 hour supercut of his Dateline introductory monologues on Youtube, I would probably watch the whole thing.
You go to hell sir!
Actually, I’m never going to watch a Keith Morrison show so I enjoy the condensed versions from Hader’s sketches and impersonations.
It’s always funny when a talented, forceful performer turns out IRL to be kind of an awkward dork.

Ive always been curious about this, does everybody have someone they would geek out about meeting?
Is Oprah going to get the vapors if she met like, Slash or something? Or do you at some point get so big that celebrity is no longer a thing for you?
I was low on podcasts so went back to the Blowback catalog, which reminded me of this absolute gem
And the Brits don’t even go to the dentist!
I’ll give this one a pass (unless they are in some community/beleief system based on child marriage.
My daughter asked my 90 year old father to help me walk her. He had 4 sons, 6 grandsons, then finally 1 granddaughter.
Not a dry eye in the house.

Although Bill Hader was a bit star-struck here, his awkwardness is pretty typical when he’s on camera as himself.

Split that chart out by race and I bet you’ll find that the US is working as intended.
holy shit wtf
I fucking hate that there are still good things on twitter
That plot doesn’t show his claim, and his claim, if true, doesn’t necessarily address the criticism. It’s entirely reasonable for “diverse” (rich urban) areas to be on the rise while overall, Black mortality is faring poorly. For one, not all Black people live in cities, and for two, it’s entirely possible that white gains in cities outpace Black losses.

I was under the impression that part of his claim is that the biggest change was due to a decline in the expectancy of the white working class. Are you arguing something different?

Only posting to listen to Shapiro’s lol description of “profit seeking” means you’ll get in bed with the government, while “capitalist” means you won’t. It used to be called “crony capitalists”. The names change and the roster of companies that slot into each category change depending on the needs of right wingers. So much of a distinction without a difference.
