John William Oliver (born 23 April 1977) is an English comedian, writer, producer, actor and television host.
Oliver started his career as a stand-up comedian, both in the United Kingdom and United States. He came to wider attention for his work on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart as its senior British correspondent from 2006 to 2013. Oliver won three Primetime Emmy Awards for his work as a writer on The Daily Show and was its guest host for an eight-week period in 2013. In addition to The Daily Show, Oliver co-hosted the satirical comedy podcast The Bugle (2007-2015) with Andy Zaltzman, with whom Oliver had previously co-hosted the radio series Political Animal, and hosted John Oliver's New York Stand-Up Show on Comedy Central from 2010 to 2013. He has also acted on television, most notably in a recurring role as Ian Duncan on the NBC sitcom Community.
Since 2014, Oliver has been the host of the HBO series Last Week Tonight with John Oliver. He has received widespread critical and popular recognition for his work on the series, whose influence over US culture, legislation and policymaking has been dubbed the "John Oliver effect". For his work on Last Week Tonight, Oliver has won six Emmy Awards and a Peabody Award and was included in the 2015 Time 100, being described as a 'comedic agent of change...powerful because he isn’t afraid to tackle important issues thoughtfully, without fear or apology.'

those mics have gorgeous sound
I have such a deep respect for John Oliver for doing that, top man
I love that so many Daily Show alum are still pushing it. It's hard to deny the strong voices of Samantha Bee, John Oliver, & Stephen Colbert; they're still voices of reason.
samantha bee is the worst, and stephen colbert can't go without mentioning trump every 30 seconds, theres a reason Jon Stewart got out when he did, he is very reticent about the current state of the daily show clones.
@@realfnneato3111 Colbert is obviously a Democrat and (in his monologues) at least performs a willful ignorance of the war-mongering hegemony + the hoodwinking of the workers and the oppressed implicit in being a Democrat.
I really like the warm, comfortable setting this takes place in. The people alone are great, but damn. That studio is so calming and inviting.
The camera work is a big part of this as well. Most of these podcast/radio interviews are filmed from a fixed, overhead POV as if from a security camera, but the cameras here are level with the subjects and have a nice soft focus (plus some color grading over the footage), making it feel more like a scene from a movie.
Questlove and John Oliver need a podcast.
I ship it
Thank you for doing what was right, John Oliver. The fact that it was a film screening for a movie about a sexual harassment case being buried, while INVOLVING a real-life sexual predator to speak about it, has so many levels of failure that it's hard to imagine anyone in the room could be thinking of anything else the whole time. The subtext was literally screaming, how could anyone there genuinely NOT address it? If I were Hoffman, I wouldn't even show up for the simple fact of not being able to keep a straight face at the ultimate level of bullshitting I'd be putting myself and others through. He's clearly not very smart.
*Alleged. For the record I think he did it but still, legal systems exist for a reason.
Self-awareness is not generally a quality moviestars have... 🙄
He's accused of WAY more than a knee touch.
that is fucking absurd lmao i can't believe how much you are downplaying it
you're disgusting
Someone once said I killed their dog and we went to court. They wanted $30,000. Luckily I was able to prove that I was IN EUROPE the week that their dog died because everyone believed them. Everyone. You stupid fools. Dustin Hoffman is no more a sexual predator as you are a profound intellectual.
It seems to me like his interview with Dr. Anita Hill maybe changed him for the better or made him better aware.
Thanks for your bravery John
3:21 This is the best reaction ever.
I love John Oliver so much
I had no idea Questlove had a podcast, awesome
Awesome. A British white nerdy funny guy on possibly the coolest Black guy ever's podcast. I like where we are heading as a species
Pat Tanackered We are a post-racial, interdependent, inter-sexual species driven by the same goals, dreams, and aspirations! 💪🏿
lol lets not forget that Questo is big nerd himself
Beautiful thinking
Why do you have to make this about Oliver being British? People can be funny regardless where they are from.
I don't. Let's stop qualifying people by their ethnicity/race/colour/nationality.
Ooh, this came up on my feed for some reason. Glad it did. This is fab, and I’m seeking out more eps of these. And I love John Oliver!
Do you know what's even more crazy than Dustin Hoffman's allegations and the plot of Wag the Dog? That movie was released a month before the Lewinsky Scandal. That movie was like a Poltergeist curse to Dustin Hoffman, and it could be one to de Niro or other actors and actresses in that film.
This is a great snippet, but it is annoying that there's clearly someone off screen who's trying to ask something, and they're being ignored/talked over. I wanted to know what they were trying to ask and there was just no pay off on that.
I too love John Oliver! As a Brit myself, I am bursting with pride when I watch him on Last week Tonight...I too find fRump disgusting!
You love this unfunny hack? Take him back please! There was once Johnny Carson. Everything this leftist moron isn't - classy and funny. As for Trump, why
not talk about something you know about' And keep it on your side of the pond. And you can take sleepy joe if this hair sniffing, child molesting creep is your idea
of a leader.
Wait!! I want the whole interview! Two of my favorite people in one setting! I need more!
did you find it?
@@bluebellbeatnik4945 it’s on spotify/apple music, Questlove Supreme !! QLS Classic
Not only should they yell "Free Bird" for him, The Roots should then start playing it from all different parts of the room, flashmob style. That would get you out of any situation.
John Oliver: *ABSOLUTE LEGEND!!!*
Btw:The downvotes are from pissy Dustin Hoffman fans.
This is amazing. Thanks for the upload. The channel looks great!
I genuinely love John Oliver. Intelligent integrity and makes me laugh. ♥️ He stood up for every victim.
It took me a second to realize that the thumbnail wasn't a profile shot of Marvin Gaye.
I never miss an episode!
Questlove got a podcast?! Am I late?
"I'll see you after Class." 🙏🏽🕊️🍁
'wag the dog' comes up daily! ditto JO!
Freebird!
Dude Qestlove looks soo baked :D
r man He's high. He's high right now.
what does 'freebird' refer to?
Supreme'a Roll Call!
What does shouting 'Free Bird' mean?
"Free Bird" by Lynyrd Synyrd was such a popular song, that people would always yell it out as a request during their concerts, to the point that it's just become a joke to yell it out out during a performance of any kind.
If you ever find yourself in Sweden, we do it to. But. Ours is called "SHORELINE"

As Bill Hicks said "The mantra of the moron".
Yeah - but a little tongue in cheek makes ya smile, no?
The even do the "Free Bird" gag in Cars.

Hi John. Is it time for me to take a break? I don't understand what is going on. Is he still with her? I am not worthless because I only want to forget about Peter and I will see you soon. Thanks for understanding and for your family and friends too. The more the merrier. I'm crying. Was he with her all along? She is in constant pain and also has fibromiolgia. She has always copied me.
Ag you guys, I think I must take a break because I am not getting any answers.
Because you can't say that "you don't want to do it." That's Hollywood.
So you're saying your integrity is not for sale.
Who’s here from TikTok?
The woman doesn't get to talk at all
Questlove looks like Marvin Gaye here!
oh ffs. is that wackass cenak at 1:36??
I don’t get the free bird joke
People always yell that randomly at shows, just for fun.
haha ?uestlove is so stoned
I have absolutely no idea what they are taking about.
He bamboozled Hoffman
I saw three of the women on Today show and five years later, it seems like a last minute cash grab for the meetoo movement. Like that Yousneeze I'msorry deal.
He ambushed him with his own agenda.
Ask Oliver if he ever got caught in a closet with a 🐕
Captain SJW
John oliver has balls of grass.
I thought they brought useful people in.
I cant believe people are pretending that Oliver is some kind of hero because he called out Dustin Hoffman for grabbing a woman ass on a film set in the 70's.
He is in a way, because you don't hear that in Hollywood now a days..
@@rohitr9400 Really? That's all I hear in Hollywood now a days, people clamoring over themselves to call someone out for the mildest of improprieties
@@burn435353 , I'm talking about calling to his face. Usually comedians do it in their own safe space with their audience. But Oliver did so in front of Hollywood hotshots and with the crowd asking him to stop. He was able to get past the awkwardness and talk to someone who was clearly well regarded at the time. And he didn't tip toe around the subject too.
@@rohitr9400 What subject? That during the development of a scene for Kramer vs Kramer Hoffman did something that's frowned upon 30 years later, and now has to answer for it to a smug virtue signaling comic, during some sort of quasi inquisition, created by liberal mass hysteria over the election of Donald Trump?
you are so right brother, the beta male energy coming from this comment section is toxic
oliver is no voice of reason he is fine on questioning hoffman but he is very inconsistent one example is the story he did on ayn rand which is full of ad hominem attacks very sure he never read ayn rand
He has literally never done a piece (~20 minutes) on Ayn Rand, she is not worth wasting that much time on. He did a "How is this still a thing" segment (~1 minute) on her. What Ad Hominem attacks were there other than the fact that she and everyone who respects her work is clearly a neoliberal idiot.
I really like John Oliver very much...but I did not like his approach on this case. And I am a woman.
Why not?
@@ryancalhoun2910 it felt like he was the prosecutor and the judge... this was not a court case but an interview, involving other actors too
@@pearljammm4093 if you look at the video, he really wasn't trying to do that. He asked Hoffmann for a clarification, and Hoffmann escalated it.
john was a clown for what he did. end of story.
No.
John oliver is the problem here, not Dustin Hoffman? Give me a break
He gave Hoffman not one but multiple opportunities to not do this. By one or the other not appearing. And by explicitly stating that he couldn't not discuss a certain topic. As far as I am concerned that is quite civil. Hoffman agreed to come and didn't let know Oliver shouldn't come. Hoffman, if anyone, is to blame. He knew what he was getting into.. or should've.
It wasn't a real apology, and he has been outed for doing a LOT more than touching a colleague's leg. For instance, non-consensually shoving his fingers into women's clothes and then up into their genitals. Exposing himself to his daughter's underage friend and getting her to massage his feet while he was exposed. Dustin also recounted in interview losing his virginity by deceiving his brother's drunken girlfriend in a dark room that he was his brother and having sex with her. Dustin laughs about her horrified cry when she realized that had been Dustin on top of her. He is an unrepentant pig and rape and sexual assault are accurate terms to apply to his activities.
@roger murtaugh This isn't court, it's an interview. If it was any other crime, he'd be put on a trial. People _wait for their trials_ in jail for things as simple as theft.
But when it comes to rape, suddenly it's unlawful to _mention_ your alleged crimes? Yeah, no. That's not how that works.
John Oliver is so unfunny, almost as bad as Trevor Noah
