There was plenty of warning. They said they would upload a season whenever they took a week off. That's usually for big holidays and they announce it the week before.
They promised to drop an entire season every week they are not on the air. They now own the previous seasons so they decided to make them all available.
That tweet was a clear satire to the racist opposition in Argentina that claims the followers are going to parades for food. Maybe Chinese people understood Argentinian irony better than Britons living in the USA

I worked fine dining in Atlanta for several years and I would say I did over 200 pharmaceutical dinners for doctors. They're usually somewhere between 45 and $150 a head. And that was 1990s early 2000s money.
I've seen them do $1200 for 6 people, they agree to a minimum with 20 expected, no one shows up, and they just have to pay the rest. The amount of money they throw around under the guise of a meeting is astonishing.
I’m so happy I’ve been watching this show since highschool. Sad to see nothing has changed, I literally remember watching this. Thanks John & the writers for this show
Worked for about 7 months at a medical research office this past year. They include doctors offices by law and the best rep I ever met told me NOT to change my meds since they were working for me and to not try his med. The rest were at least somewhat knowledgeable, some more than most, about their meds, but mostly were just welcome for the lunch they brought 👍
Thinking about it, radio shack dying and full on death is right about when our society was starting to fully move to a disposable electronics society. Apple was making it severely difficult to repair their laptops, phones lost replaceable batteries, fix it shops were closing down, TVs were getting cheaper and larger so when an old tv broke, you just bought a new one.
I wanted to add to the talk about docs prescribing off label When i was 16 i was on Prozac. my psychiatrist prescribed me an additional antidepressant that not only conflicted with prozac, but wasnt approved for antidepressant use in minors. Why did he prescribe it? For sleep. Then when i told him i didnt take it because i was concerned, he said “i knew i shouldnt have told you it conflicted”. You know, something hes REQUIRED to tell me. And this was 3 years ago. Nothing has changed.
As a 47 yr old with mental health issues, I encourage younger people to advocate for yourself. I hope you're well! And yeah, like they prescribe atypical antipsychotics for sleep, and that's not how they're supposed to be used. I take anxiolytics and my psychiatrist freaks about that, yet, tried to give me quetiapine(aka seroquel, which can give one type 2 diabetes, Long qt syndrome aka a heart rhythm issue, dry mouth, thyroid problems, tardive dyskenisia, and extrapyramidal symptoms, etc). The anxiolytics *might* be habit forming and give me....checks notes, memory issues when I'm a senior citizen. I had ECT(shock therapy) and was on opiate maintenance treatment(MAT) for 12 years, but sure... the anxiety meds are what's going to mess up my brain. I don't know why we can't sign a document saying 'I won't hold the prescriber or the pharmaceutical company, etc, etc' paper and therefore, get what I feel I need, within reason.

@yelloworange3125 omg, like one has to wonder if these psychiatrists even have the first clue about living with a psychiatric illness. It certainly FEELS like they haven't got a clue. My current psych provider(he's in his early 60's, I think) turns crazy shades of red any time I mention hormonal changes and my mental health.... like, that's his job, has he never had a perimenopausal patient(he surely has, you'd think he'd be open to considering that hormonal changes just might aggravate my mental health...sorry, this might be tmi... but it's frustrating...). I've got some nights where I just can't sleep, I try meditation, breathing, melatonin, but he just refuses to even address the issue. I see my primary care doctor this week, maybe SHE'LL be more understanding. Not sleeping at all 3 to 5 times a month can't be great, right? I hope you are now seeing someone better suited for you and wish you ALL the luck! I also hope you have a happy, healthy summer!🙋🏻♀️☮️💜
It's amazing that this episode was done before any of the opioid settlements occurred....... Yet after 2012...... But before fentanyl had truly leaked out of the circles of people.who were prescribed it in the form of a prescription nasal spray........
Absolutely right on. Damned drugs turned my brother in law into a zombie. Once a rare doctor pulled him off almost all his drugs he turned back into his old self. If you think maybe they were necessary, he's now 86 years old and works in his garden every day.
to the channel moderators, can you flip the playlist please? having episode 1 at the end means its not able to just auto play through. tiny annoyance i know but i was looking forward to just watching it all roll through

Seroquel increases risk of developing diabetes & causes HORRIBLE withdrawals if you try to stop taking them without a doctor's assistance to wean over time, and it's often difficult to convince a doctor to help you wean off. I tried to wean myself over 2 months & still was so sick for months. They don't ever warn ppl of this before prescribing
Oh, glad to know I was one of the people prescribed seroquel for something it absolutely wasn't meant for, almost a decade later (fun fact: my prescriber switched me to something else, but somehow forgot to remove my prescription for it until months later, and I still probably have an unopened bottle or 2 somewhere around my house)
They uploaded this right when I finished watching the first season. Thank you! I do wish it had real captions though. They way youtube's auto captions censor swears is so annoying and infantilizing. Not to mention confusing since they just skip the word. They are often wildly inaccurate in other ways too. I really appreciate all the times John Oliver and his team have stuck up for disabled people on this show but I wish they'd put their money where their mouth is with this. It's small, but it's big.
I’m honestly pissed that the playlist for this and Season are now in reverse order. You guys got it right the first time! Still good job putting this on UA-cam though.

The sound bit about changing the R for L phonemes is quite accurate. We mimic their accent all the time, even in writing like how they pronounce naissu.
In Finland it is mandatory for the pharmacy to offer a cheaper (same medicin, different name/manufacturer) alternative everytime you buy a prescription medicine.
I’m currently on Wellbutrin and calling it “the happy horny skinny drug” is a ridiculous stretch of the truth. If the reason you couldn’t lose weight or get it up in bed was crippling depression, then it might have all those effects but the main effect is giving you the power to get out of bed in the morning and face the day without wishing you didn’t exist.
At least as of February of this year, there is still a Radio Shack that's open in Munising, MI. That said, it's part of a general store/pharmacy/Radio Shack/jeweler combo store
Watched the old one, watched this upload when it came up and now I am high af and watching it and I haven't laughed so hard for a good while 😂 thanks for aging well, John
I'm from Ecuador and had to suffer Correa's antics. The bit shown here was so cathartic for a lot of us. It was beautiful to watch Correa squirm because he couldn't do ABSOLUTE shit to censor or block John Oliver. Now, what we did resent was the show parodying TIKO TIKO the clown...

"How bad could a tweet from a world leader be?"
Oh, I miss that innocence.
When a world leader being overtly racist on Twitter (not X) was noteworthy and that person was publicly shamed…
This was from around the time Trump announced his candidacy. Even so, I'm not sure at this point of whether John was joking or not.
I almost jumped out of my skin when I saw that Season 2 had been uploaded! John Oliver is a magnificent human being.
He said on Late Night with Seth Meyers that every week they took off they were going to release a new season. Something seems to be up with late night tv shows.

I think Max is really desperate to attract viewers, so releasing some of their best content will help people forget that Max sucks otherwise.
AND they're putting the initial aired dates in the description!
You can tell this is ancient because John shows the correct map of Ecuador and just moves on without saying anything
