    Very glad to see a new Queens of the Stone Age album (In Times New Roman), but what I really want is a new Them Crooked Vultures album. That and a new Oysterhead album. Two great supergroups that have graced us with only one album. I want more!

    Neal, I cannot find the words to describe how much I enjoy your podcast and look forward to them each week. I was lucky to stumble across the podcast week one and have been absolutely blown away by the guests you've had.
    It's educational, inspirational, hilarious, dark, and (maybe most importantly) enlightening.
    Thank you sir.

    I largely agree with the point the interviewer is trying to make. The only thing I'd add is that tact and empathy are real things, and a healthy human being knows how to use them. One isn't legally restrained from being an asshole, but others aren't required to continue associating with you if you choose to be one.

      He may hate talking about it because of the way he’s been either teased as he young kid or the people around him handle it or also the reason it happened. I know that when young kids go through stuff like that typically, they adapt way better than an adult that’s had their leg the whole time.

But people DON'T have the right to try to stop someone else's freedom because they don't like what they said. And dumb narcissistic people are the ones who are more likely to do this.

Comedy should be more than just being offensive for offensives sake, which is why so many comedians get shit for their bad jokes and then cry foul because people call them out for their shitty joke. And the answer of "just leave" is such a weak defence, what's the point in a society if you're only to tell people to leave when they don't like something.

    There is NOTHING funny in an event like the one that happened in Bataclan. It's disrespectful and inappropriate for someone to laugh at something like that. I can understand that it's some kind of coping mechanism to traumatic events or whatever, but please don't do it. Say it in your head. I don't have to put up with your stupidity, I don't have to leave MY place because of YOUR stupidity. YOU get out of my place. In addition, there may even be situations in which you cannot leave a place where someone is saying offensive things that question you. So there is no excuse.
