Is Bill Burr’s Directorial Debut ‘Old Dads’ Comedy Or Satire?

Conservative and liberal audiences may agree with Bill Burr’s general criticisms of our culture, but they won't find moral consistency.

Bill Burr’s ‘Old Dads’ Is Not About Being A Dad As Much As It Is About Just Being Old

The new Netflix film uses the premise of old dads as a launchpad for a fight against the silliness of younger generations.

Watch comedian Bill Burr's HILARIOUS prediction of this star's bizarre meltdown



On “The Rubin Report” this week, BlazeTV host Dave Rubin shared a clip of comedian Bill Burr hilariously predicting Kanye West's bizarre, Hitler-praising meltdown on the Alex Jones show earlier this month.

"The next time Kanye is going off on himself, close your eyes, forget it's him, and really listen to what is coming out of this guy's mouth. He says sh*t like, 'I'm a genius. I'm a god. I'm Shakespeare. My greatest regret is I'll never get to see myself perform live.' That's a direct quote, 'I'll never get to see myself perform live.' Dude, you put that ego in a white dude and it's (here Burr does an impression of Adolf Hitler.)"

West, who legally changed his name to Ye in 2021, made shocking statements praising Hitler and Nazis while criticizing Jewish people on Jones' show.

"He's obviously not well," Dave said of West. "He's surrounded by really horrible people. He has noxious, bad ideas ... but Bill Burr, he had an incredible take on Kanye ... and it's been making the rounds. I just thought this was absolutely perfect to kind of put a button on the Kanye thing so we can just move past it."

Watch: Comedian Bill Burr goes viral with comedy sketch comparing abortion to a cake: 'I still think you're killing a baby'



A new comedy sketch from comedian Bill Burr likely will not have liberals rolling in the aisles with laughter. A clip from Burr's new comedy special went viral in conservative circles because the stand-up comedian noted that "the whole purpose" of an abortion is to kill a baby.

The video clip taken from Burr's recent Netflix special “Bill Burr: Live at Red Rocks” – which has a critics' score of 67% compared to an audience score of 93% on Rotten Tomatoes.

Burr began the comedy bit, "Pro-choice always made sense to me because I don’t like people telling me what to do, and I was just like, 'It's your body, who the f*** am I to tell you what to do with your body?' So that always made sense. Alright?"

"However, I still think you’re killing a baby. See? That’s where it gets weird," he declared to groans and silence from the Colorado crowd. "Like, I sit on the fence and the whole thing makes sense to me."

Going between different character voices, Burr said, "When anybody’s saying like, 'Don't tell me what to do. It's my body, my choice.' That’s right. She's right. Leave her the hell alone. ‘Well, you’re killing a baby!’ Well, I mean there is that. You know?"

"If we’re gonna be honest, that is the whole purpose of the procedure," Burr said of abortion. "You’re not going in there cause you’ve got an earache. You’re going in there cause you’re like, 'I got a baby in me, get it the f*** out of here.' Right? You walk in with a baby, and you come out without one. What happened to the baby, right? Something f***ing happened.”

Burr tore apart the pro-abortion argument that "it's not a baby yet" by making a comparison to baking a cake.

"My gut tells me that doesn't make sense," Burr proclaims in the video that has more than 2 million views on Twitter.

"That would be like if I was making a cake and I poured some batter in a pan, and I put it in the oven, and then five minutes later you came by and you grabbed the pan and you threw it across the floor," Burr explained.

Burr continued, "And I went, 'What the f***! You just ruined my birthday cake!' And then you’re like, 'Well, that wasn't a cake yet.' It’s like, 'Well, it would have been if you didn’t do what you just did, there would have been a cake in 50 minutes. Something happened to that cake, you cake-murdering son of a b***h.'"

Pro-life advocate Obianuju Ekeocha said of the video clip, "Very serious language warning here, but if you can withstand the sting of foul language this is an excellent analogy of abortion by Bill Burr."

Bill Burr explains why he'll never apologize to the outrage mob



Comedian Bill Burr has never been one to back down to controversy or bend the knee to political correctness. During a recent podcast appearance, the popular stand-up comedian explained why he'll never apologize to the outrage mob.

On Thursday, Burr appeared on “Steve-O’s Wild Ride” – a podcast hosted by the star of the reality TV stunt show "Jacka**." Steve-O – whose real name is Stephen Gilchrist Glover – asked Burr, "Okay I got a random question. I really thought about this because I’m genuinely curious if you’ve ever apologized for a joke?”

Burr admitted that he has apologized, but specified, "Yeah. But I do it to the individual that I hurt."

Burr explained that "if I told a joke about something that somebody had a personal effect to and I made them sad or made them cry" he would apologize to that offended individual if they were offended at a joke at one of his stand-up comedy shows.

However, Burr proclaimed that he would "refuse to apologize to anybody that is upset that they heard a joke at a show they weren’t at."

He said if a person got offended at a comedy special that he put out for the public, then he would consider the criticism. Burr declared he would never apologize if the negativity is coming from a person solely seeking out content to be outraged about.

Burr noted that there is so much entertainment online and on streaming services that there is plenty not to get angry at, and presented "videos of dogs snoring" as an example.

The comedy great said, "But you went out of your way to f***ing watch this thing, it’s on you."

"I am a big believer in if you are wrong, and if you feel you’re wrong, you apologize," he conceded. "But I’m not a believer in the mob mentality and I’m not gonna apologize just cause it’s not worth it. Because then all I do is give that strength that it’s okay to do that and then some other comic’s going to have to deal with it."

"The Mandolorian" star added, "If you come up to me after a f***king show, I’ll listen to you, and if I agree with what you’re saying I’ll be like, ‘Yeah, okay. It wasn’t a personal thing, I’m sorry. I’m sorry you went through that or whatever.’ And what I’ve found is they’ll actually be cool with you. People, anybody, like us… They want to be heard."

Burr refuses to apologize to the "professional being offended" crowd who only get outraged to "move whatever cause because you feel like you can fix society with your ideas."

Burr warned that everything has become about "steering" the narrative like "Fox News and CNN" that "some a**hole" will take the audio clip without context and say, "See! Comedians should apologize!"

Bill Burr blasts Gina Carano's firing from 'The Mandalorian': 'Liberals proved her point'



Comedian Bill Burr blasted the firing of former "Mandalorian" actress Gina Carano and said that liberals proved the point she was trying to make about being Republican in Hollywood.

What's a brief history here?

Disney and Lucasfilm fired Carano — an MMA fighter turned actress — from the "Star Wars" spinoff in 2021 after she said that "hating someone for their political views" in America is similar to the treatment of Jews in Nazi Germany. She also previously voiced support for former President Donald Trump and criticized mask mandates during the COVID-19 pandemic.

At the time, Lucasfilm said a variety of her social media posts were “abhorrent and unacceptable” and thus justified the termination of her contract with the hit show.

What are the details?

During a recent interview with the Hollywood Reporter, the longtime comedian — who starred alongside Carano in the Disney+ streaming show — said that he didn't think it was fair that Carano lost her job over her personal and political opinions.

"I thought it was funny that the liberals proved her point," he told the outlet. "They just use outrage because they don't like your politics."

He added, "As someone who considers himself liberal, it's disappointing to see the left become how the right used to be when they went after the Dixie Chicks after they criticized George W. Bush. There's not a lot of people like that — most are just trying not to get in trouble. But there's this small collection of lunatics — either on the right or the left, at any given moment — that cause hysteria."

Burr added that can't understand why those people with opposite political ideals would go out of their way to sabotage someone's career.

"That somebody's opinion — or their political beliefs — makes people try to destroy their ability to make a living, it's f***ing bizarre to me," he mused.

Following her controversial 2021 firing, Carano's talent agency dropped her. She also lost out on a role in a planned spinoff series featuring her "Mandalorian" character, Cara Dune.

Bill Burr castigates clueless white women for bashing Jon Gruden: ‘Women of color I will listen to all f***ing day long’



Comedian Bill Burr blasted white women for criticizing disgraced former NFL coach Jon Gruden, who stepped down this week after two rounds of leaked emails showed him using racist, sexist, and homophobic language.

Gruden resigned from the Las Vegas Raiders following the backlash the content of the emails received.

What are the details?

In his Thursday edition of the "Monday Morning" podcast, Burr said that much of Twitter was keen to label Gruden as a "classic, mediocre white male" in light of the email debacle.

"[H]is overall record is under .500 and he gets a $100 million contract," Burr said. "It was retweeted by a white female, which goes back to that bit I did a while back, how white women have divorced themselves of their own f***ing privilege. ... If they were a white male, they'd be running the planet."

Burr continued, "To act like this guy is a mediocre coach is not the case. He's one of the best coaches of his generation. ... Say what you want about the guy socially, but don't come after his football record if you're not a f***ing football person."

Burr pointed out that privileged white women had no business critiquing Gruden's record or talent on the field.

“I just cannot f***ing believe that white women have the f***ing nerve to sit there and go 'classic mediocre f***ing white male,'" Burr railed. “How many ladies nights did you go to where you didn't have to pay a cover and somebody bought you a f***ing drink. The level of whining!"

He concluded, "Women of color I will listen to all f***ing day long. But I always make sure that I remind those white ladies that you're riding in the same chariot I'm riding."

Gruden's messages, according to previous reports, spanned over nearly a decade. He lashed out at NFL Players Association executive director DeMaurice Smith in the emails.

Following the first round of messages — which reportedly contained a variety of racially charged remarks — Gruden said, "I'm not a racist. I can't tell you how sick I am. I apologize again to D Smith, but I feel good about who I am and what I've done my entire life. ... I had no racial intention with those remarks at all. I'm not like that at all. I apologize. I don't want to keep addressing it."

A second batch of emails soon surfaced, which allegedly featured misogynistic and homophobic insults. In one of the messages, Gruden blasted NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell for pressuring teams to draft "queers" — an apparent reference to Michael Sam, the NFL's first openly gay player.

In a statement announcing his sudden resignation, Gruden said, "I have resigned as Head Coach of the Las Vegas Raiders. I love the Raiders and do not want to be a distraction. Thank you to all the players, coaches, staff, and fans of Raider Nation. I'm sorry, I never meant to hurt anyone."

Comedian Bill Burr ruthlessly unloads on 'f***ing morons' at CNN: 'F***ing treasonous un-American pieces of s**t!'



Comedian Bill Burr mercilessly obliterated cable TV news networks, especially CNN, which he called, "f***ing morons."

During a recent episode of his "Monday Morning" podcast, the comedian and actor griped that when his mother-in-law comes over to his home to babysit his children that she watches CNN.

"And do you know what those f***ing morons are doing? Do you know what those f***ing morons are doing? They're f***ing talking about Trump," Burr ranted about CNN anchors. "I swear to god. I cannot believe people watch that channel. They're so dumb."

Burr pointed out that CNN secretly wants former President Donald Trump to return to the spotlight because cable news is "show business" and the network talking heads "have nothing to talk about."

"The Mandalorian" star noted that cable TV networks are struggling because "Joe Biden is a f***ing bore!" Burr explained that CNN "can't b***h about" President Joe Biden because "he's wearing a blue tie," implying that he's a Democrat and CNN is friendly to Democrats.

"So now what do they do? They're doing what they did the first time to get this guy elected by giving him all this free coverage while they act like they allegedly don't like him," Burr said of the media talking about Trump. The media provided Trump with nearly $2 billion worth of free media attention during the 2016 campaign.

"I don't buy it. They are a corporate news channel," he said.

"They're f***ing treasonous un-American pieces of s**t," Burr said of CNN. "Just like Fox News, MSNBC, just like all of them."

Burr transitioned into another story of being forced to watch CNN, this time was when he went to the gym. The unapologetic stand-up comedian said he was exercising on an elliptical when CNN was playing on the televisions at the gym, and he wanted to ask someone, "Can you turn the f***ing channel?"

Burr wanted to turn off CNN because he said all of its coverage is negative, and claimed the cable TV network ran nonstop stories about California fires and COVID-19 cases.

"They made it seem like all of California was on fire," Burr said. "Then they go, 'Now let's talk COVID, the numbers are up.' What is their f***ing deal on those channels? Don't they have any idea what kind of what they're doing to you psychologically?"

Burr asked, "How about a positive story? You do a story that involves race relations where people are actually getting along?"

Burr mocked cable TV network executives who only want to air negative news stories that try to "scare the hell out" of the audience, make people "feel like they have a virus" or like "their house is gonna burn down," and claim "the Nazis are coming back."

In March, Burr made headlines when the outrage mob attempted to cancel him over jokes he delivered during the 2021 Grammy Awards, including quips about feminists.

Sharon Stone rails against cancel culture: 'Stupidest thing I have ever seen'



Sharon Stone is fed up about cancel culture. The 63-year-old Hollywood actress vehemently spoke out against the popular practice of people dog-piling on an individual or company to silence or deplatform them for behavior or speech that some deem to be offensive.

Stone made an appearance on SiriusXM's "Just Jenny" radio show, where she railed against cancel culture and urged people to be more understanding of one another.

"I think cancel culture is the stupidest thing I have ever seen happen," Stone told host Jenny Hutt on Monday. "I think when people say things that they feel and mean, and it's offensive to you, it's a brilliant opportunity for everyone to learn and grow and understand each other.

"We all come from different ages, different cultures, different backgrounds, different things, and have had different experiences, different traumas, different upbringings, different parents, different religious backgrounds, different everything," the "Basic Instinct" star explained after Hutt asked if she thought celebrities are "afraid to have real conversations."

Stone implored everyone to "give people an opportunity to discuss things before you wipe out their entire person over a statement or a comment or a misunderstanding."

"Stop being so small. People have done so much more than one sentence," she pointed out.

The "Casino" actress encouraged people to "grow up" and "grow some empathy."

Stone isn't the only celebrity who has voiced concerns with parts of society embracing cancel culture.

After cancel culture efforts were successful against former Teen Vogue editor Alexi McCammond and Mumford & Sons banjoist Winston Marshall, HBO host Bill Maher raged against "woke" brats who try to get people fired using Stalinesque tactics.

Maher warned, "Cancel culture is real, it's insane, it's growing exponentially, and it's coming to a neighborhood near you. If you think it's just for celebrities – no. In an era when everyone is online, everyone is a public figure."

The outrage mob attempted to cancel comedian Bill Burr after they disapproved of 'the "cis white male" presenting the Grammy Award for "Best Regional Mexican Album," and mocking feminists. Burr previously ridiculed cancel culture as "20 people with a hashtag," and he doesn't pay attention to online commentators.

Disney fired "The Mandalorian" actress Gina Carano for social media posts that were considered to be "unacceptable."

"I am sending out a direct message of hope to everyone living in fear of cancellation by the totalitarian mob," Carano lashed back. "I have only just begun using my voice which is now freer than ever before, and I hope it inspires others to do the same. They can't cancel us if we don't let them."

On the topic of cancel culture, Matthew McConaughey told Joe Rogan, "We're making people persona non grata because of something they do that is right now deemed wrong or it's the hot point in a hot topic right now. You can't erase someone's entire existence. Where the heck does some forgiveness go?"

Eminem released a music video in retaliation to Gen Z scandalmongers who tried to cancel the rapper for decade-old lyrics that they didn't approve of.

Even left-wing blowhard Keith Olbermann deemed cancel culture to be "very draconian and foolish."
