Jerry Seinfeld speaks about society's 'growing alienation from humour' in podcast

Sky News host Chris Kenny has looked at the latest from Jerry Seinfeld with the comedian "diagnosing our growing alienation from humour”.
Seinfeld appeared on the New Yorker Radio Hour podcast alongside host David Remnick, speaking about the need and importance of comedy in television.
“Well, guess what? Where is it? Where is it? This is the result of the extreme left and PC crap and people worrying so much about offending other people,” Seinfeld said.
"My kids know that I can come up with a Seinfeld TV show reference for just about any life situation, now Jerry's turned to diagnosing our growing alienation from humour, and he's nailed it," Mr Kenny said.
"It turns out Seinfeld wasn't a show about nothing after all, it was a show about everything."

There are before and after moments when you know life will never be the same. JFK’s assassination. The WTC collapse….and when we heard that Green Day song in the final episode. We miss you four guys Jerry….and Neumann.

Statistically it is, for most people.

The proportion of the prosperous to the pitifully impoverished or of the propertied more precisely, to the perennially deprived?

Humor

[@Rombizio]

First.

[@ClownBiden]

That’s a major accomplishment, you must have studied years to achieve it

[@Rombizio]

@@ClownBiden Yes 14 years of hard work.

[@BrainsIntoBogans]

Sorry, the only humour that's allowed now is if you're making fun of straight white men. Or conservative Christian women.

[@Aaronwhatnow]

Wow really? Like you clearly don't get out of you basement

[@ClownBiden]

Sorry but it’s more like most comedians have gone woke, so the comedy now sucks

[@jonwoodmass2849]

Its not even the left. Creativity has left the building.

[@CrustyAbsconder]

Most people realize now that there is no God

[@felixroyan6615]

And, after death, they will find out how wrong they were

[@deckofcards87]

How do you even possibly "realize" that.
