Its pretty impressive that Gilbert was banned from the Howard Stern Show being too offensive.

Banned for what? Although they say now he is a little old church lady karen.

He made a lot of jokes about black people when he was on the stern show which put him on thin ice but if I recall correctly he was banned after he spat on a muffin they had in break room. He did it on camera so its not like he didn’t think anyone was watching but it’s still pretty gross.
Gilbert was one of the funniest guests Stern would have on so they should have just told him to knock it off instead of outright banning him for life. Modern karen stern would never allow a guy like Gilbert on the air though.

I had to hear his show, because the school bus driver had it one. It can't be any worse than what Stern said about black people.

The thing is, when Gilbert Gottfried makes some joke about a group, I don't believe he actually means it. I believed it when Stern says it.

Actually, he played someone who had died and gone to Hell in “Hellcop.”

I think the movie was called 'Highway to Hell'.
Gilbert Gottfried's minor part was Adolf Hitler.
An odd movie, but I liked it (a reasonably happy, albeit incomplete, ending). But Gottfried's part was very small.

And yet every woman will say the most important thing they’re looking for in a man is his sense of humor.

I think mostly they’re looking at that bulge in his trousers. NOT the front, the back pocket where the wallet is!

That was during the OJ trial, Gilbert was doing a Bela Lugosi imitation.

"Today on my way home from work, I subscribed to it. There's over 600 episodes. I didn't have time to scroll through them all so I landed on a more recent one where he interviews boring, vanilla actor Matthew Modine."

Heard that one. Been listening to his podcast for several years now, and Full Metal Jacket being one of my favorite movies, couldn't miss that episode.

Updated, more vulgar and explicit Don Rickles schtick. 7th grade humor level...body parts, sexual habituation, and bodily functions. A real yuckfest.

Norm!

I had never had a favorite comedian until two years ago when I fell in love with norm MacDonald’s brilliant style.

Then he died.
