            In this excerpt from our 3 hour interview with the great comedian, interviewed on December 17, 2007 by Jenni Matz and Henry Colman, Carlin talks about why he still performed into his 70s, why he considers himself a Writer and Artist above all, and is not comfortable with the term "entertainer". The lesson he takes from Pablo Cassals.. "I'm starting to notice some improvement".. his aspirations to be an Actor, he talks about how he got his own television show, "The George Carlin Show" (FOX, 1993-95), how he came to replace Ringo Starr on the children's show "Shining Time Station"..he talks in depth about how he puts together his live comedy show and his working process leading up to his filmed HBO specials. He's asked whether he ever tires of his older routines. He talks about the next (his last) HBO special, which he was preparing to tape- "It's Bad for Ya".
