My immediate thought when Jimmy described good comedians as those who can âchange the thermostat of the moodâ (8:48) was of Conanâs visit to Haiti where he did exactly that moments into a conversation w a group of people there still suffering after the latest destructive earthquake several years ago. I was already a fan of his comedy; it was then I became a lifelong admirer of his humanity as well. If you see this, Conan, thank you for that, and keep up the good work.

14:17 Another great observation by Jimmy Carr regarding great comedy (and I guess life in general too) here is when he talks about what the American painter and visual artist Chuck Close used to say: "Inspiration is for amateurs, the rest of us go to work." He follows this up with saying that inspiration is the reward you get for turning up for work(i.e. your passion or work or hobby) everyday. I think this is a great insight!

So much love from Southern Finland! †I'm bilingual and lived in the UK, but assimilated North American influences very early, so I've grown up on both Python/Fast Show/Blackadder/panel concepts etc. as well as late night and US stand up classics. It's really cool to me that the "pond" is even narrower than before, lots of cultural appreciation and exchange going on. Thank you for all your work!

3:44 reminds me of the great Kids in the Hall sketch where Kevin's character is in court charged with molesting himself. He appears on the stand as the victim and as the defendant. Brilliant.

â[Peopleâs attention spans] for nonsenses itâs shorter â for good stuff itâs longerâ is a brilliant insight
