I'm I'm I'm very excited about this. This what we're going to talk about today for a number of reasons. One is the subject of our conversation is someone who you and I both revered as oh my gosh, as one of the most brilliant minds period stop. One of the most brilliant comedic minds. George Carlin, to me, what was so amazing about his career not only was what he chose to speak about, what he chose to examine, the ways in which he did it. But I have always found comedy is like of a moment. You know, guys who were funny, their thing was so great ten years ago, and they're doing the same thing now and it doesn't work the same way. George Carlin, that career spanned decades, and it was always top of the game, always.

Which is why, which is why, if I may say, yeah, when this subject came up, I got angry, I really got angry. Yeah, because I got I was blessed to know George for a run of time, and I saw how structured is comedy was, how hard he worked on it. And I want to include Kelly's Here is his daughter, Kelly Collins. I want to bring you in to the conversation.

There's an interview I did with Georgian ninety six and you get to hear how that even just hanging just in conversation because it's pretty casual, and where he goes, and what pissed me off about this? To this, this studio put out, this podcast, put out put out an AI and AI special with your dad. Even with all the disclaimers, one of the disclaimers was to those under twenty, I'm the only f in George Carlin. This is part of his legacy. This is part of how he's going to be remembered. If somebody listens to it, you can't. It's like unseeing an accident. You can't unhear this.

So if it piss me off, if it pissed me off that this has some reference to his life, then it must have pissed Kelly off. So I wanted to get her on right away because I can't. And it's funny. I was talking to Howie and I don't think he's gonna mind. Howie Mandela and he said I wouldn't mind if they did something because the legacy lives. And I said, but Howie, this is a guy I watched him work. He would take a joke and rewrite it and remove it and time well for two years for an HBO specially.

If you have a vote in it, and you say, when I'm dead, go ahead and feed all of my material into some computer that may be around in fifteen years that could possibly replicate my genius. If you vote for that, then you vote for that, And that's great permission. But this is my dad didn't get a vote in this. And like you said, this is a man who used his human life, his human experience, his human heart, his human brain to concoct and create and shape and shave and mold in things that blew our minds. Every decade, like you were saying, yes, like he was always evolving into the next version of himself. And the thing was, was that what he said to us thirty twenty five, twenty five years before he died.

And I always say to them, well, if you had been listening, he already said it. The problem is we weren't paying attention. We were going, isn't he clever and smart?

So he warned us, He let us know where it's all going, what's happening with it? And you know, so there's this thing about the genius of humans, human lives, the thing that happens how humans take in experiences and use this amazing brain that we have to observe and share and communicate. And the thing about stand up is that it's I can't even think of a more I mean, that's like live theater too, a more human experience of an exchange between a performer and an audience member. You know, every night, whether you're an actor or a comedian, you come out on stage, there's a different energy in the room. There's a different laugh at that joke that usually sometimes it gets a big one. Sometimes it's total silence. There listening to a listening crowd. Tonight it's a laughing crowd. That's the magic of this art form, you know. And the fact that the whole thing is this canned audio experience, with this canned audience laughing.

There is a law on the books called rights of Publicity that protects people's ability to control their name and likeness. And this was done because Freda Stair's wife saw fred Astair I think it was dancing with a vacuum cleaner, and she sued and this created this president of this law. The other is the copyright issue. This is where it gets very muddy. When we filed the lawsuit, we were assuming because they had said out loud that they fed a machine all of his specials, or the machine said it I ate all of these hundreds, you know whatever. It was part of our argument for wanting to protect the copyright even of this content that was created.

We don't know who's going to cut it into a million little pieces, and they're not going to get the beginning part that says, oh, this is an AI impression. So a people will be introduced to George Carlin through this content, which completely waters down his legacy and his own intellectual property. Uh and then AI in the future may ingest this as a George Carlin content absolutely, which will then just.

So people know if they don't know, George would come and do the almost amazing heavy duty riff about something just so important and then look at me and go at which you heard. I also never go to a dentist with blood in his hair. I mean, George, you go. And I always laugh at that because it's the juxtaposition of what made him laugh, yes, and also his pacing and the palate cleansing of jokes.

I mean, they get up against the thing that I do kind of understand. So there there is a thing happening now in some venues where a performer who's no longer of us is recreated holographically, and like in the Michael Jackson Show in Vegas, they do that at the end the Abba Boring show.

It's their content and most likely their estate signs and getting paid lots of money for it, right, which is very different. So that's that's what I say about It's like they get a vote in it. My Dad's had no vote in this, and they're putting these here's another thing about my dad, because he hated people putting words in his mouth. And that's why when I woke up to the news that this thing was happening, the roar of Mama bear rage inside of me because it was like, this is the very thing that he could not stand, was people, you know, trying to pass something off as him. And you know, this is the part of the performer and the creator and the writer and all of us that you know, where the healthy ego shows up. This is like, this is me saying this, you know. And the thing about AI is, you know, it's almost like, well, what's the point of humans. I'm just going to consume your stuff and turn it into content, And what's the point of humans anymore. What's the point of having an experience or sharing an experience because we're just here to be distracted by this bullshit. You know, it's just it's an existential spiritual crisis.

When you went when you worked on the radio, I know you had him. There was a little sheet sheet that would tell you what the Carlin words were.

Yes, yes, it's not.

Yes, yes, it's not.

It's not because it started out pure AI and they fetted their stuff and everything in the show's AI. Now you're hearing it's not. And how he told me this morning he knows the long guy, Will Sasso and said, yeah, I think it was written, so it's morphing into something else.

And I have to assume that they revered your dad. I can't imagine being a comic who wouldn't revere him. So it's it's part of why the whole technology scares me, because I think people of good character and good intent can stumble into some really horrible stuff.
