hitch was a legend and educated me through youtube videos. an incredible mind. you are sorely missed buddy
Well said 👏
I loved this guy so much. His writings and debates freed me from the mental bondage of being a believer.
It's a choice... all the time.
Great interview with a magnetic character and insightful mind. Also respect due to Pat Kenny who distinguished himself here.
Worth the 900k though?
That cough, my heart sank when I heard it, 8 days later he was diagnosed with the cancer which killed him
Ditto, it was almost a Pratchett-esque reminder that Death doesn't have a sense of humour.
I thought the same thing, I didn't know about the timing though. Thanks for your comment.
What a mind, writer and communicator. Thanks for posting.
What an amazing human, life was interesting when I discovered him
I love reading all the intelligent comments on CH videos, the fact that the people comment on these vids means they are looking up something good on youtube, whatever side of the argument you are on,class act..
That's such a smart comment 👏
Nothing pleases me more like a hitch video that I never saw before
Great public speaker. Kenny had clearly read the book as well. It's a pity that it was such a short interview. Hitch. May he not rest in peace in the nicest possible way.
hollymarg what the fuck does that last sentence mean, Jesus, may he not rest in peace.. in the nicest possible way?????? Wtf does that mean?????
Octavian Caesar Hibernicus I think what he is saying is that Hitch knew there isn’t an afterlife so he is dead and not resting ... hence he is not “resting in peace”
no, dumb
@@octaviancaesarhibernicus4447 He meant, may his often harshly true comments (not harsh for me), interviews, writings etc, live on in eternal glorious divisiveness. How can you not realise that
Incredible that this was done via telephone. Great interview.
RIP Christopher 💔
He got sick 7 days later.
Rip a great mind.
We need this guy now more than ever.
Never a truer word said. Kenny is a true national hero
Much missed Xxxx
He read his own death, and within months he would be diagnosed with the cancer that killed him
@alltoohuman17 - David Hume and René Descartes may possibly have had something to say about that................
Where’s part 2?
You can also call them the pretoric isles. :-D Just to get the fun going again...its funny the way it all kick off any time NI is mentioned ..
More so then where you seem to have got your information,
"@ 1:58 "Isn'tt this the Mark Twain line?" No, no, it shouldn't be Samuel Clemens who first comes to mind but Samuel Johnson: "Nothing so concentrates the mind as the sight of the gallows".
Sadly missed
@hznfrst The fact that you call an Irish man British immediately renders your criticism redundant
State of Pat Kenny's face
MrNiceHk hahahaha, he was definitely on the sunbeds.
PK the only Irish interviewer good enough to speak to the great man.
Orange man bad.
he found out he had cancer shortly after this. =(
CH is such a loss.
@LeLimeLine Meh, Samuel Johnson gets a little tiring. Voltaire was a better writer I think, and certainly a better mind.
"The British Isles" is an out-dated, much maligned term(mostly for the Irish) as it implies that all "IONA" are Britain, Great Britain or the United Kingdom(very distinct different meanings) which politicise them beyond just a geographical reference.
However, it is correct that it is just a "Geographical Term" but it is slowly being replaced, hopefully completely in the near future by "British" &/OR "Irish" + "I.sles O.f the N.orth A.tlantic",
- Do us all a favour, google PBD & re-focus.
: P
It is correct according to who?
Or you could just say Ireland and Britain...
It’s a grammatically incorrect Geographical term. Otherwise it could be called the ‘Irish Isles’ and see how the British like it.
A Donegal man has spoken, now ya clipe!
@hznfrst
Christ, nice to see you Canadians can take a joke. Get over it mate
I don't know what they teach young people in geography these days, but Ireland is part of the British Isles. If you don't believe me, look it up on wikipedia.
The British Isles does not equal Great Britain. Obviously the republic of Ireland is not part of Great Britain, and nobody is saying it is.
Ahh.. wikipedia .... Nobody expects Wikipedia
You fucking clown.... Nobody relies on Wikipedia .. Because it's written by people like you.
Irish people reject that label.
Sorry for you.
It’s a politically loaded term and shouldn’t be used. The Republic of Ireland is included in the British Isles term and shouldn’t be. The British and Irish isles would be correct. Contrary to popular belief very few people outside Britain actually use it.
