The Jimmy Dore Show You don’t have to be a nerd to appreciate Monty Python’s humor (although it helps). In fact, anyone looking around at woke culture today couldn’t help but be impressed with the prescience on display in a scene from the British humor troupe’s 1979 film Life of Brian, featuring a satirical conversation among a group of ancient Judeans during which one of their party insists that he wants to be a woman and that they all must subsequently call him “Loretta.”
Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss other entertaining scenes in the film and promise to cover more in future live streams.

About The Jimmy Dore Show:
#TheJimmyDoreShow is a hilarious and irreverent take on news, politics and culture featuring Jimmy Dore, a professional stand up comedian, author and podcaster. The show is also broadcast on Pacifica Radio Network stations throughout the country.
OMG !!!
Obvious then as it is now.
Woke culture shouldn't have gotten the chance to take root in the first place!
In Ireland the life of Brian was based by the Church but you could get it on Vinyl LP so before i ever saw the movie i knew it word for word.🤣
They saw it coming because they were all in academia and it all started there.
John Cleese hit it on the head !! Trans people unless they actually have a sex change, are delusional hypocrites!! Mate if you like dudes and wanna take it up the arse be my guest, but all that make you is a homosexual, a male homosexual, not non binary, not a woman, with women's rights, a cross dressing dude, who takes it up the arse, your choice, fairplay, but get a fcking grip would you!!!!
Those dudes are all hilarious i love Monty Python 🤣🤣
Jimmy Dore is not a political commentator he`s a naughty boy!
They didn't predict wokism, it's not new. They had clearly experienced it then and were commenting on it.
Men have been calling themselves women for thousands of years. The Roman and Greek men used to dress as goddesses to celebrate their festivals . It’s even in the Bible. J Edgar Hoover wore a dress. This is nothing new.
They were at surprisingly subversive Cambridge Univ. a few years before me, Yours Truly. Remember: it was Cambridge – not establishment Oxford – that produced Philby, Blunt et al – "The Cambridge Five"…and "Footlights".
NB. I was a Cambridge Univ(St.John's) student at a time when university education was free for non-wealthy or piss-poor kids like myself. Before Cambridge Univ I was educated by extreme poverty and by growing up on a so-called social-housing UK "council estate". And back then, many other,er, unlikely geniuses from similarly poor backgrounds could still make it to "Oxbridge" if they had the necessary drive, intelligence, cramming ability and the will to escape poverty and the social housing ghetto.

Now that this clip is gonna be spread around watch how the woke mob is gonna try and cancel Monty Python.
Maybe what this shows us is that human nature is universal and that understanding humans first will show us that no policy or governance can overcome our proclivities without force. And access to that force only attracts the worst among us. How many examples do we need? There will always be individuals who seek to abuse this power that we think is necessary for a civilized society. It’s only a matter of time. Every system will fail.
Check out 'whites Kids you know- popcorn factory sketch'
Not really that old but certainly a cancelable offence by modern standards
I was born in 79. Damn. That was ages ago
How did they know it? Because the same elite Jews who push these movements in society, also control Hollywood. So they're literally using their movies to tell us what they're going to do to us goyim next. Just look at all the movie references to 9/11 decades before it happened…
That's not at all about "woke" culture. It's about how politically left (not liberals, but the actual political left) factions has always fought among itself.
And stuff like this (and not knowing what words mean) is what puts actual leftists off your channel, Jimmy. You're often angry with the correct parties, but you're knowledge/history-free.
High carb diet…problems
Wow.
CLASSIC!!!
Love you guys but the topics are getting a little hacky for a daily show.
YES show it Jimmy 👑

The movie predates the pomo madness in our universities. Creative people, especially artists, are known for their moments of prescience.
Please! There's nothing new under the sun. Oh how the Queen applauded Alice In Wonderland and explicitly it was about her. Like or hate Trump however he pointed out what we've all expected in the last 30 years! After Trump what Emperor is wearing clothes?
My goodness that’s perfect
Crusty old boomer yanks not understanding British humour? There's a shocker.
Some things in life are bad
They can really make you mad
Other things just make you swear and curse
When you're chewing on life's gristle
Don't grumble, give a whistle
And this'll help things turn out for the best
And
Always look on the bright side of life
Always look on the light side of life…
NOFX was trashing woke gender culture in the 90's too. It was very insular and only in academic and hard core activist cirlcles then but these ideas are far from new.
Well, it's nice to have some insight on how those people reason…holy crap!
Monty python knew because gender bending and degeneracy isn't new.
Look into the Frankfurt School, Jimmy.
We are going the way of Rome in more ways than one.
OMG…how have I never seen this? 😂🤣😂
Because commies were just as irrational back then… there's nothing new
Lot of the woke crap started in the hippie 60s.
What happens guys is that neither of you were ever a member of a Marxist organization in the West, which were all either “Socialdemocrats”, or some variety of it. These gender matters have been part of the “revolutionary” movement’s debate since early 1900s. It started as a fight for women rights against patriarchy in the late 1800 and then all that crystallized in the BOLSHEVIK REVOLUTION. This gigantic step forward for human society taken in Russia, had an impact on Western Socialdemocrats who in turn tried to capitalize on the popularity of Bolshevik social policies by renaming all that “expansion of rights”. However for “Socialdemocrats”(which is what most Western Marxists were) that should happen within capitalism which ironically is a system built from and for EXCLUSION. Once again, in the West (USA, Europe), the Marxist movement was disgracefully contaminated by Socialdemocracy and liberalism, that’s why instead of fighting for fairness and equality of rights between men and woman (since they were pro capitalists, they couldn’t implement any revolution) they pushed for the “expansion of rights” in the middle of a terribly unfair society.
This scene (I believe this is Life of Brian) shows what “Eurocommunists”, “Socialdemocrats” and “Liberals”, (and many times Trotskyists) all of which opposed socialism and communism, were discussing for decades and decades way before it was massively known by everyone.
What do you mean how did they know? As if this hasn't already been an agenda for hundreds of years?
Monty Python anticipated this over 40 years ago. Remember "The Lumberjack Song"?
You can’t beat Monty p it makes you think
Now American culture
Monty Python were being ridiculous when they did this skit
Another good one from the 70s Maurice Strong-Climate Crook
Everybody watch the movie PCU. This has been brewing for awhile.
Strong coined the term, was a crook, wanted a world wide tax. Died in China wanted by cops in North America for stealing money slated for starving people Oil for Food program in the 70s
Transphobia is well established in western entertainment and has been for decades. It's no surprise that Monty Python and Jimmy Dore would mock trans women this way.
What’s sad, is that almost every living member of the MP cast, are all woke idiots who have no qualms about people being arrested for “wrong speak” in the UK.
"What are you gonna do, let in gestate in a box?"
Who the F*CK censored me for saying not to read Cleese tweets???
When all this woke bs started, this skit was the first thing to come to mind. Brilliants. Decades ahead of the NOW times.
