Bill Burr has been doing stand-up for over 18 years, performing on HBO, Comedy Central, several late-night programs, and various shows on XM satellite radio. You also might remember him from "Chappelle's Show," where he appeared in some hilarious sketches including the "Samuel L. Jackson's Beer" ad. We recently got to sit down with Bill at Caroline's comedy club and talk about Helen Thomas, the Gore split, and what punishment is fit for BP CEO Tony Hayward. You can catch Bill Burr tonight through Saturday, June 12th at Caroline's On Broadway.

This is not conspiracy-ish enough for Mr. Burr.

I demand a crazy explanation!

Bill! My favorite comedian. Hate the fact that I won't be able to make any of his shows.

"I actually sounded intelligent there." Um. No. You didn't. You sounded like the foul mouthed vulgarian that you are.

Vulgarian, huh? Actually, he's an American citizen. From Boston, I believe.

Bill Burr is one of my favorite comedians, along with Louis CK, Attell, and Greg Giraldo.

Louis CK is in the pole position to be the next Carlin. Naming him in one breath with those two other dudes doesn't seem fair to me.

"Bush twittering" sounds like something Jennifer Love Hewitt would discuss on a talk show.

You don't know Bill. He hates peddling his stuff.

As a life-long supporter of unapologetic outspoken a-holes, I was going to link the podcast too!
