He didn’t just call them out, he called them out on Jimmy Kimmel Live.
Kimmel averaged 1,720,000 viewers a night last year and that doesn’t count people watching the next day, or even later, on YouTube.
Bill Burr has always been a “no fucks given” kind of guy and I respect him for that.
He won my respect when he won over Philly by insulting every single person in it - while in Philly. (I can’t believe this happened 18 years ago.)
Damn. Booing Dom Irerra is low even for Philly.
That guy is like comedy dynamite. He makes sports funny to me and I couldn’t give less of a shit about sports.
Some bitch-ass editors 😂
Well, ok, bitch-ass suits.

Good for Bill Burr.
I don’t want to be the one defending Insurance companies because seriously fuck them.
But… Please correct me if I got it wrong, but for the California fires they are accused of refusing to sell insurance policies or asking very high prizes for them, which is a very different thing than selling the policy and then denying and delaying payments after something has happened.
An insurance company saying they won’t insure you means that the risk is visibly and insanely high. Which it clearly was. If anything this should have been a pretty loud alarm bell that has been ignored.
What is the difference between refusing to renew a contract and refusing to pay the insurance claim from an “ethical” point of few?
Imagine one of your friends says “wanna bet I can beat you at arm wrestling?”.
Scenario 1: you look at them and they look more or less your size, so you bet $10. They win, but you say “wait, I wasn’t ready, let’s repeat”. They win again and you say “my elbow slipped, let’s go again”. They win for the third time, you say “you are cheating” and refuse to pay the bet. You couldn’t blame them if they concluded that you’re full of it and didn’t want to be friends with you any longer.
Scenario 2: you see that your friend has biceps the size of your head. You laugh and say “no way man, not going to arm wrestle with you!”. You share a laugh and go get a beer.
You can think of Insurance as a morbid type of betting, where you don’t really want to win the bet, because it’s something like “hey, wanna bet that I don’t get killed in a car accident this year?” and the Insurance can decide to take the bet or not depending on what they estimate your odds of dying in a car crash. If you want to bet on “wanna bet my house does not get destroyed by a fire this year” and no insurance company wants to take that bet, that’s a pretty bad sign, because they think the odds of a fire are way too high.
I don’t know how you feel about the ethical aspect of betting at all, but I think there’s a difference between them being unwilling to take your bet and them taking your bet but then refusing to pay you if you “win”.
