It's crazy that by listening to the Gaza part, you can't tell that this is 15 years ago
Just goes to show that politicians just don't like change. It's not profitable for them. God, what a bleak world :( ...
Well 10 years ago, but tbh if we go back 15 years that may still actually be the case 🙃
Try 80+ years
Turns out Islamic terrorists like Hamas never get tired of terrorizing others or indoctrinating their child shields into jihad
Bro i legit thought it was a new ep till i looked at the comments
648 weeks ago, tonight
Hahaha😂
from when to when? this episode originally aired 508 weeks ago from my 1 week after your comment perspective.
August 10, 2014, as of this writing it's 508 weeks and 3 days. Gaza is sadly still a thing, but payday loans not so much. Hopefully.
because in 2014 we were still limping out of the recession and many were desperate for cash 💸
Man, I wish groceries were the same price as when this was made.
Gas prices are the same thou 😂
Why? Prices in 1950s were the bomb!
Nobody actuallys wants that. If they did, they'd stop the corporations gouging them under the lie of "inflation".
Percentage wise, income to expenses groceries are cheaper than 4 years ago.
Then how would corporations make record profits every quarter?
We're stuck in a time loop aren't we
I knew I shouldn't have made that jump to the left followed by a step to the right.
Nah dude, you can see it's not by the brand new fresh "Planet of the Apes" movie.
Unfortunately yes. History keeps repeating itself. 😔
Thank you to all the crew at the show for making this. Though it was sadly funny that I started watching this thinking "I'll get to see some stuff from the show I haven't before 😊" and the the segment on Gaza started and I thought"Oh for fuck's sake" 😂
And now it's Russia annexing Chrimea
10 years ago and yet nothing changed with Russia and Gaza 👌
No they changed. Just for the worse
Because Islam refuses to allow healing or improvement. Hamas would rather dedicate the next 75 years to continuing a conflict they WILL NEVER WIN
@@logan-pe4rmIslam and Hamas are two vastly different things. Islam is a religion, Hamas is an extremist terrorist group that forsakes the Islamic name.
If a group of people started going around bombing and killing people in the name of Christianity, would you say that all Christians are bad, when they aren’t?
Take any religion, and there’s gonna be extremists who are psychopaths. They don’t represent the group they wrongly claim to be standing for.
Many Muslims despise Hamas. It’s like Isis, and how they don’t represent Islam. I know so many Muslim people who are utterly disgusted by isis and Hamas. They pray for peace for both Palestine and Israel. They don’t believe the things those horrible people do. At all
news were the same 20 years before this aired
it’s really depressing watching these old episodes and realizing nothing has changed 🙃
Or that things actually got *worse* 😩💔
I was so confused for a minute 😂 This episode (re)posted an hour ago and I thought we were in Iraq a 3rd (4th?) time before I saw Obama 😂
The blessed intern has struck again 🤣🤣
It’s honestly insane how the first episodes were dominated by war in Gaza, rising tensions in Ukraine and a crippling American criminal justice system. Literally nothing has changed.
It is pretty crazy how this was filmed over 30 years ago, based on how old John looks today
Hey now, that joke can't be used so many times within such a short timespan
I can't believe this was filmed 40 years ago 😳
Fuck Bob Murray for doing this to him
I can’t believe you
Stress causes premature whitening of hair.
After all these years - Russia and the Middle East again... who would have thought? Everyone you say?
Thanks for re-posting!
I clicked thinking it's a new episode and my split-second initial reaction was "Does Oliver dye his hair?"
Thanks for making this public, Last Week Tonight!
john's hair looked 10 years younger and that's how I knew this is an old episode
It strikes me as so odd that he looks so human here. Like a reverse Pinocchio.
Just 10? Not 70? Like an inverted dog?
S1 E14 (aired August 10, 2014)
Incorrect, the Yazidis genocide happened on August 14th, so this is about a week after ISIS killed thousands of the Yazidis
watching this just reminds me that time is a flat circle
I don't know why we are getting full episodes 🤔 ..but I'm not complaining ❤ thank you 🥰
there's a trailer in the chanel, they're basically opening up the "archives" and uploading every episode on CZcams
John Oliver now owns the show and is worried that HBO are going to disappear it, so he's making sure that it exists somewhere
That "team Bella" joke aged like the finest wine!
Funny I was one of thousands of US troops in Baghdad when OB gave this speech.
The nostalgia hit i got from this 😢
This is a wake up call for me since in 10 years i haven't achieved my future goals yet.
Thanks, HBO, for posting the episodes here so that they are not lost media. Pretty soon, there will be more episodes available here than on Max. Pretty ironic.
More like Min, am i right?
You should add when this was first aired in the description or title or something
Texas government has got to be one of the best examples of how not to run a state government
Amazing how in a decade, nothings changed.
thank you for uploading full old episodes ❤
Include the original air date in the description please
I once had a payday drug dealer
same; he was named Keith
i love sarah silverman she’s just great
holy shit they really released all of the first season all at once, i wonder if this will continue
Basically, HBO max isn’t available everywhere. So last week tonight gets full episodes uploaded to countries where HBO isn’t available. Like here in Malaysia, we get new episodes for free on CZcams every Sunday.
The plan is to upload all the seasons on CZcams so they will be openly available in the future.
Putting aside the decade old new that hasn't aged a day, who else actually wants a serious video game about modern diplomacy?
Can't say that I do, lol. But I liked the idea of that one brutally accurate sports game. "Fuck you, fuck me, fuck everybody!"
This is horrifying to watching only 12 years later and after things have gotten much worst
OK, it's 2026 apparently. GoodToKnow
Bless you all for posting these full episodes!
Wait a minute... This isn't a pirate CZcams channel!
Thank you for releasing the entire first season from a current HBO subscriber! 🧡💛🧡
Bravo to whoever decided to re-release these 👏👏👏
John Oliver released the entire season, and HBO allows it.
Season 1 was a lot longer than I remember... 😂😂😂
If you think your life can’t get any worse, take out pay day loans and pay part of em back in plasma donations.
Good morning from Nairobi
Good Morning good Sir
Extremely disturbing. Prayers to All for Love healing
A lot of those passwords were really solid! I just need a number and symbol.
I Love what you do John Oliver
*If it was any other content, that is this old, uploaded again, I would protest. But loving these.*
Are you messing with Trump? :) now he's going to say he just saw Obama sending USAF to Iraq in Last week tonight with Oliver 😂
Thanks!
God, what happened in all those years ?
... I don't wanna get old.
You already are.
i recall john oliver still having black hair at the start of the murray suit so i'm guessing that Bob Murray sacrificed his kidney stone in a dark ritual to give him the stress of several decades.
if anyone at LWT sees this it's a joke i'm sorry.
@@salamantics Not to mention we still haven't heard what was inside the envelope from data brokering episode
To be fair, 4 of those years were encompassed by the Trump administration, not including the primaries.
That aged everyone, even before the pandemic. The Covid-19 pandemic, specifically.
@@ZT1ST Did you really have to specify which pandemic it was, lol? Unless I'm missing something
That tinder and grinder UI gave me flashbacks to app dev 10 years ago.
I saw my childhood local newscaster!!! That's pretty cool!
This is unbelievable. I couldn't believe my eyes. 🎉
Personally, I find it terrifying that I'm nostalgic for whatever year this is. 🤷♂️
Im starting to wonder if the real reason these old episodes are being uploaded is to remind people how the Gaza crisis is very much not a new thing.
I was like, “Hold on! Why are we going back to Iraq, and why does John Oliver look so young?” Lol
You could literally watch this episode again thinking you heard it for the first time today.
"Even clusterf**** are bigger in Texas." 😂❤
God does provide, I was asking for more John Oliver,, & here it is 😊😊😊😊❤
Please consider doing a video on the lifeboat foundation and lifeboat ethics!!!!
World of Peacecraft is gold 😂😂
2:14 😂😂😂😂
We need to wake up ...from then to now bad domino effect and still going
That AlanAldanewbatman joke really got me 😂
A whiff of nostalgia indeed
This reminded of when I had hope in my life.
Awesome idea old video refreshed
The Sarah Silverman part reminds me of how an old woman with dementia in my town had her shoulder broken by police on her walk home from Walmart after she forgot to ring up some items. She left all her items behind, including the ones she did pay for, and was just trying to go home. But the cops decided to throw her on the ground and violently arrest her anyway.
So much nostalgia
Funny, never even considered one of those Payday Loan places since they look like scams and I am so broke I'm maybe half a check from being homeless every single pay period
Uploading your entire series watchable on youtube for free is such a power move 😂
woooooooh thanks for the backlog!!!! I thought my computer was having a stroke.
i was never so early! feeling blessed.
Oh we lit we have content for days now lol no more once a week. Or did someone click upload all by mistake.
Have I gone back in time 😂
Games with a focus on diplomacy? John, we call that Civilization.
Haha the gaza game aged very well I'd say in a bit at all kind of way
he didn't talk about that amazing whistle at 18:01
Haha the guy who can't quite tell you why. Figured it might get you somewhere shaking his hand though.
"Turning to the crisis in Gaza" ahhh.... everything old is new again
Great episode but I still wish they put original air dates in the description
God I love Sarah Brightman
I wish the original airdate was included in the description or title.
How much history repeats, is that the lesson?
🙏🏻thank you intern. Your internship sacrifice was not in vain.
Yea Pittsburgh!
Last 10 Years Tonight.
Whats the original air date on this episode LMFAO
Wow. If it wasn't for knowing how much John has aged since this, you could be forgiven for thinking this was filmed within the last week....😮
I love looking at the thumbnails of the first season and comparing it to the current season just to see how grey his hair is now lol
Wait what, Gaza?! What year was this?!
Too many uploads! My brain just exploded.
It's really sad that when you hear the part about the Gaza cease fire lasting no time at all, you have to double check the date on the episode to make sure its not a current one. Jesus Christ these countries need to make some fkn real changes...
Is it just me or World of Peacecraft doesn't seem so bad to play?
It's basically rep farm so yea about fun as that
So that’s how he got the Lion King gig.
I remember getting those when I was in the military. DONT DO IT! It took some creativity to break that cycle!! Find another way to solve your problem!!!
14:17 how he got a roll in the Lion King
Why is this series no longer available on HBO?
Unusually, John Oliver is wrong about this.
It's octopodes. Or octopuses.
Thankful for CZcams. Stop hating on Reisling. It's good for cooking!
Say what you will about the joke video game, but it could work. Heck! People play farm simulators!
Never a borrower or a lender be.
They wiped The Breach right off of the map.
Can we talk about how nurses and healthcare workers were essential during Covid yet bonuses are coupons and pizza for health care workers of all people
Thanks intern for making me feel old.
There's so much here rewatching this in 2024. The "Pittsburgh Olympics 2024" joke, the.... entirety of the portion about Gaza (the only thing really dating that is the news' fixation on cheap mobile games), and ebola's virality being the comparison point to payday loans, as if there isn't a viral outbreak we're all intimately more familiar with nowadays (not like the 2014 ebola outbreak wasn't devastating, but for a show made in the US, we have a much stronger comparison point now lol.) Here I was, turning this on to joke about dated news stories, and now I'm just sitting and thinking about the harrowing impact of the passage of time. Typical last week tonight experience, but still
