Really wish he was around today, would love to hear what he has to say about the dumpster fire we have become.
He would off himself again. Damn shame.
totally agree . . . . re could really use him now
he would love Trump
@@Midlands_wolflmao no, he would see through his bs easily 😂😂😂
2:10 "This is not about oil" Charlie says condescendingly. Boy, I hope someone has reminded him of this moment since.
He then does that thing Americans used to do a lot at the time where he says; “it’s about freedom” as though that answer actually *means* anything
Got severely beaten by the Hell's Angels for telling one of them "Only a punk beats his wife and dog". His was a life lived fully and with morals.
I wish I had discovered Hunter while he was still alive. A true American classic.
i've never seen Hunter more seemingly relaxed in an interview than he is here.
G Mac it's the final years of ones life when they finally realize how to act.
Hunter was always trying to fight against the system, I think at this part of his life until his suicide he had slowly loss his passion to try to change people's views. He was just too bright for his times
@@DingDongfootballl true that shit
@@friedrichfreud6084huh ?
"What do you think that bombing a whole population is?"
We love you Hunter.
Got to meet dr. Hunter a few times and I will never forget them. So humble, so glad to be part of this family.
"I might be the best dressed man in a volleyball gym."
Literal diamonds.
That hammer thing is referenced in the GQ article where he goes to London to meet Steadman. It’s nice to see bits of HST lore come together like that
Holy shit Charlie, you might be ancient as fuck but you continue to surprise me with your gullibility.
hunter's intelligence was undervalued
YAH BECAUSE ALL THE PEOPLE THAT INTERVIEW HIM ARE MORONS!!
Why
At least now he's on the bookshelf of every forward thinking person I've met.
Will Rogers of his time.
Hunter was a crazy madman genius. Timeless bro.
Lol Charlie pivoted away from Hunter talking about the CIA so quickly.
Hunter is both naiive and insightful. I love his books
5:20 pokes fun at Hunters attire...years later vogue and others do pieces on his fashion, even a kickstarter was made to remake his safari jacket.
2:30 the creepiest laugh I've ever heard
"This is not the time to have a bogus rich kid in the White House" uttered and written over a decade ago. Hunter saw what was comin' and got the hell out.
Yeah man biden is an absolute disaster and to be honest a disgrace but isn’t the Democratic Party just that
Charlie Rose must be embarrassed by this interview re: WMDs
Charlie is a idiot deep state fraud hollywood creep
He might be more embarrassed about walking around naked harassing his female co workers Charlie sounded like a complete idiot
Words of Mass Deception
Boy!, Do we need a Hunter right now...
We sure do! 😮
Hunter at some point got tired of the double role and decided to focus on being the Dalai Lama only
the fear dial has been turned up since 2003
Put the commercial ad in the beginning. I always leave when there is multiple commercials.
Hunter played this interviewer like a fiddle. He is the master of distraction, he allows the interviewer to assume he has the upper hand. The interviewer makes a fool of himself talking down to Hunter in an almost patronising, yet sadly blind ramble. If you look closely Hunter takes the time to pause ask a couple of questions and gather that this fool isn’t worth his energy educating, he chooses not to fight this battle because it is pointless, the man is blind, he will never see. You can tell Hunter just wants out and away from the annoyance of it all. A true moment of fear and loathing at the TV studio. Hunter will always remain the king of journalism even in death because of his ability to see and articulate the fine mechanics of raw truth while others walk through life with their eyes closed, conditioned & incapable of seeing what’s staring them in the face.
I thankfully stumbled upon Hunters works during university and he has made many invaluable contributions through his genius and voice that will walk with me as I journey through this life with a heightened perception. The world was enriched with his unique talents & I will eternally ponder what his charisma would have tapped out on his antique typewriter about the muppetry unfolding in the world today.
You said "today" 5 years ago, now I say the same. It looks it's getting worse and worse all the time. I don't know is it me being too dark, but eveything seems crazier and crazier.
“This war is not about oil”
15 years later his career is dead. Good riddance.
Politicrat rose had a school not reply as to
Why we were at war... I never saw rose get that adamant before... Zionist gatekeeper shill.. buy buy Charlie!!
Good riddance? He's done more for this world than you have by supplying us with this highly informational interviews. Do you expect him to share every single fucking view you hold?
Also his career is hardly dead lmao he is basically is... Just got way too old and same shit is going to happen to you miserable fuck.
Nah, he's just catching a break really, probably just chillaxing living off his accumulated wealth. I wish I was doing that. I miss my EI days :(
You sir are the most naive kind of person
Good ol Charlie was always kind to vonnegut and Thompson etc. All the freaks He was up to arguing with anyone, which is in the blood, that's a rarity. He quit out of retirement I believe, it wasn't political .... you didn't like him is that it
Holy shit thank you for the upload!! Post any more if you have!
Awesome interview. News guy is being a news guy, but still a good interview.
News guy is no longer being a news guy. Hunter will always be Hunter.
Fuck yes hunter s. Thompson I fuckin love this guy
This is one of my heroes
Mine too. 😎
say what you want about charlie, but at least they can sit with each other, discuss in a respectful tone, and not rip each other's heads off. when's the last time you saw that on tv?
Jaysus.. years later and how this plays
Charlie loves to hear himself talk, there could have been a real interview if ol Charlie would only listen to Hunter. I wish Hunter was around today as I would love to hear what He has to say about Trump and All the messes that is within that.
Charlie Rose was wildly deluded about war as every fact says today.
Both legends. I just wish we had more both of them these days. No age regression. :P
That interview went nowhere quick
The Art of Self Extinction: 2 brilliant Masters...
How did Charlie stay outta jail? He was involved in some terrible affairs
LOl at the end we all know who was the real Gentleman at the end.
i really like how the interviewer rechewed all the US propaganda haha
Drug off his mind or not... He was on point about the war is all about oil .... Plain simple
Yeah, that oil was better off in Saddam's hands...so were the people of Iraq.
If only they could have seen Iraq under the rule of Saddam's sons. Darn ol Bush and Dick, depriving the people of all that fun.
Gosh, all the underlying sectarianism and terrorism combined with a naturally collapsed Hussein regime, if only we had no war for oil.
@@PlayNiceFolks 9/11
Holy shit, Hunter and Charlie Rose were only 4 years apart in age.
This interviewer was a snake. "How's your health?" I.e. "Stop going off script or else"
I find this very interesting his spot on about everything. We wasted a whole generation in the middle east and it seems not to be getting any better. We will be paying for this for the next several generations or this could be the end. We have nothing else to give, and soon we will be selling off ourselves to the highest bidder.
Brannon Craig Collapse is not far off.
This is the Hunter as I wished he would've been when a friend and I saw him on his tour. Instead we were treated to drunken rambling that turned nasty very quickly with the audience..Boy Howdy.. lol.
Listen, Nixon was Hunters muse coupled with the Brown Buffalo and Ralph Steadman he saw the heart of darkness beating in the desert.
Hemingway lost his zest for life
( yes, yes I know about the depression), and who's to say it wasn't the same for Hunter, my take is he simply grew tired of wading through the bullshit.
Hunter was right about the Iraq war, Bush is a war criminal along with the cartel of neo-cons ; one of which is sitting on trumps shoulder whispering for war..( Iran..anyone?)
All we are saying
I read a lot of the stuff he wrote on Nixon and I swear if u substitute Trump for Nixon the sentences still make perfect sense. Some of hunters words are prophetic
He would have saved the best for Trump.
I always figured that Hunter S Thompson would fully support the narrative of what was being propagated at the time, but he had voiced a different opinion than what I expected, so I give him credit for that since it did go against the grain AND ALL!
This is a retarded fucking taking dude jesus
It’s almost like this guy is interviewing himself.
Thompson Thompson was always just the best and perfectly sane in a room full of men and women who really were not following the story they were just wasting time and getting paid for it anyway rest in peace
An old dog that knows all the tricks
One thing about HST is he's always driving on about lost values, depravity, moral decay and the loss of the American Dream. He even self-deprecatingly said, only in a country so off track could someone like me thrive. But I never quite seem to hear what his ideal place, time or ideology is, aside from he thinks wherever he is, from the 60s though 2000s, is bad. Admittedly, I have not read much of his work. In interviews like this, I tend to enjoy his unconventional take on socio-political norms and values, but I never quite feel like he completes his argument into some sort of cogent philosophy.
Based on his Writing and Lifestyle, I think His ideal Society allows Freedom to flourish and corruption to Whither and Die.. . He would want people to have the Freedom to remain sheltered in a prison of their own desires as well as the freedom to walk around with a head full of acid, a joint behind the ear, a pocket full of mushrooms, and crystal meth, Wearing a backpack full of explosives, flip flops, with a bottle of Chivas in one hand, a Smith and Wesson .45 in the other while singing the National Anthem with a rebel flag flying from the dildo stuffed up their ass on the capitol lawn.....But then again, You never could nail down the original Gonzo so maybe He wanted the corruption and war that fosters division and anarchy..
Didn't he die shortly after this?
Weird how people seemed to get LESS accepting of his past or current drug use as he got older. Now days I think he'd be dropped pretty quick for calling Narcissus the N-word lol.
Can someone count how many times Hunter briefly sticks the tip of his tongue out like a lizard in this interview? I'd be interested to know..I love Hunter, but that kind of drove me crazy.
joseph hopeless all them drugs
Sometimes speed will make you do that when your really rockin and rollin in the mind.
it is about freedom, didn't you know ?
He looks fairly sober here lol 😂
Charlie wears his Rose colored glasses regards his assessment of u.s. war in Irac. Unctuous.
Rose wears his Charlie coloured glasses
what year was this intervew
2003 did you even fucking watch it?
Why didn’t he got sober after the substances clearly was leading to his personal and artistic demise
Turns out it was about OIL!
Spoiler alert it was about oil
The mostly says shit you get online.... So he doesn't know he just follow what someone says. He the interviewer has to tell him what to say...... But I guess he is a brilliant mind.... Because drugs
Love Hunter, but haven't ever liked Charlie Rose who's a sycophantic obnoxious individual.
This is not about oil.
Cmon you fiend.
Anyone else notice when Hunter burps?
Is it disgusting, or fitting, or both, that this interview is preceded by and spliced with advertisements?
The war was about oil.
So in hindsight it was about oil and power. Freedom and weapon of mass destruction lol!! Keep drinking’ the koolaid bro.
the funny thing is he is prob a total drug fiend himself
To save the petroleum dollar 💵 😎
Nieve Charlie Rose 🙄
Skull and bones
Charlie comes across as pompous here.
Poor Hunter looks yellow already. His face is yellow and hands pink. Did he drink so heavy because he seemed so shy at the beginning of his career? I love him and wish he didn't kill himself and leave his son and grandchildren hurting. Kinda selfish?
Hmm doesn't sound like something he would do does it? I wonder.
This was 2 years before he became worm food
Lol the #mettoomovement would of got hunter too lol
Thompson was fun and interesting when I was a child, but you grow up beyond the childish adoration of a poorly formed thesis adorned with literary theory.
Over-rated....BORE!!!!
shucksful you're right Chuck Rose is overrated
