In 2001, comedian and author George Carlin sat down with Dennis Miller to discuss observations and topics from his NY Times Bestselling book "Napalm and Silly Putty," including how easily the American public can be manipulated, who they trust and how he copes.

George Carlin described his comedy as focusing on 3 things: love of language and how we use it; the small things, moments we all share as humans; and the big topics of our culture—war, death, children, religion, etc. A social commentator, he challenged conventional wisdom and brought us facetoface with our ingrained hypocrisies. There was no topic off limits to his keen observation, wordplay, goofy jabs and rants, whether it was drugs, war, politics, the accumulation of stuff or the way in which we use words.
