1:02:18Now PlayingJimmy, accompanied by Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger, delivers a detailed critique of comedian Zach Galifianakis for criticizing Joe Rogan and Theo Von as comedians who don't "challenge power," while pointing out that Galifianakis himself failed to challenge Barack Obama during a softball Between Two Ferns interview—letting Obama promote Obamacare without pushback—and has never taken a real stand against the establishment, including during the COVID era when he remained silent about vaccine mandates and experimental treatments.
Jimmy also notes how Conan O'Brien traveled to Israel to film a propaganda piece with the IDF, sat down for a friendly interview with Benjamin Netanyahu, and visited a Palestinian refugee camp without acknowledging the political reality—while also hosting a segment mocking Trump's peace plan but never showing the actual map of Palestine shrinking since the Nakba.
He says that Israeli newspaper Haaretz called O'Brien's trip "the best publicity Israel could have asked for" and that he "amplified Israel's positive propaganda apparatus more efficiently than the state itself could have dreamed." Jimmy concludes that comedians like Galifianakis and O'Brien are "empty-headed go-along suckups" who project their own fear of challenging power onto Rogan and Von, and that Galifianakis could have used his platform to inform himself about issues like ivermectin, the COVID death rate, and vaccine injuries—but chose not to.
