  • John Oliver is the Peabody Award-winning host of Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, a show that's won more than two dozen Emmys since premiering in 2014. Catch new episodes Sunday nights on HBO at 11:00 ET, with past episodes canonized rather conveniently right here on UA-cam. But how is he with spicy food? Find out as the former Daily Show correspondent discusses the problems with cable news, his love for the Muppets, and his iconic (in his own mind) free kick in Soweto.

    Cool John Oliver story. I met him at JFK airport. Told him I really liked his work. He seemed to genuinely appreciate it and said "Oh cheers thank you". Shook his hand and went on my way. Turns out we were on the same flight to the Bahamas. As I walked past him and his family on the plane he recognized me, smiled and waved. Thought that was so cool. I didn't want to come across as a weird fan so I was not planning on saying anything to him again. But at the baggage claim he went out of his way to tell me and my girlfriend "have a great trip guys!". Such a class act and completely down to earth. I don't agree with all his stances but will be a life-long fan anyways.

      I think interacting with people in an airport really shows you who they are as a person. More often then not they just want to get to the destination and be done with travelling, hardly anybody is in a great mood because everybody just wants to be at their destination. So the fact that he was super chill and polite like that speaks volumes to me.

      A friend and I met him a couple times in NYC, more than a decade ago. We met him once in Union Square and once outside of his comedy show. Celebrity status aside, it was pretty cool talking to him as a person. Smart and funny, and down to earth like you said.

      His "stances" are non-existent. Let's say His Family stood to suffer from any of the things he reported on. Would he make a video pleading with the decision-makers in charge to please tyrannize us slightly less or try & get immediate solutions? Thinking "things *should* be better" when you have the capacity to _make_ them better isn't a stance.
      In fact it's a great illustration of avoiding taking one. He's waiting for "someone" to "do something" which no one suffering immediate consequences has the luxury of doing.

    17:40 I've found that there's a weird effect when you eat hot food that is a bit above your pain threshold, it seems to trigger some weird instinct to continue eating. It's as if chewing more food is preferable to just sit and feel the pain, despite what you're eating is adding/maintaining the pain.

      I worked in a Dive Bar that had that system. When I started, the old timers would tell me the price they were charged for their drinks, and the owner had another amount for the people who were new/part of the gentrification of the area. Basically, the new prices were for all, once the last of the old regulars, who would show up at 7 am daily, died. RIP, Moon.

If you paid for a dog, it will be reflected in the price of my visits, as will if you rescued one from Death Row. If you can afford $2,000 and up for a pup, you don't need me to lend you equipment to try, or to donate my time. But hey, that's my business model. You don't have to agree!

      I was honestly surprised by how well he did. This somehow was simultaneously both far less unhinged and far less interview-like and more like a regular conversation than any other Hot Ones I've seen before. (I'm one of those people who don't watch every one, though.)

    As a Brit, I love hearing about the Edinburgh Fringe talked about on such a big platform. It is such a special place, celebrating all forms of art and performer and style. I love going to free or cheap shows, not knowing if it will be good but also not caring, because in there are absolute gems. It was an honour to perform there and I will never forget it
