Looks like the professor from Astro boy

I guess Sanders and DeVito used a fusion dance to achieve this form.

[–] [email protected] 68 points 1 week ago

Any one of them being compared to the other I would call a compliment.. all good guys.

I've heard he's a super chill guy

[–] [email protected] 33 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

He's a super lad but you wouldn't want to get on the wrong side of him. This is one of my all time favourite bits of radio where he absolutely eviscerates someone against Obamacare at the time.

It's from 2010 and 4 minutes long. Honestly couldn't recommend enough that everyone who reads this gives it a listen.

Some light swearing at the end.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The end part about Americans traveling the world being respected again in 2010 is really depressing in 2025.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

Yeah that part did stick with me too. For what it's worth I'd say most Irish adults have been to the US at some point and had a great time so it's all quite a bit of confusion and horror.

We know right well that there are lots of really good folks there too though and Michael does a great job of portraying that in the clip.

He's a good lad. We're all very fond of him.

His Xmas and St Patrick's day speeches have been on point, he has a background in literature (poetry)

EDIT : I hadn't listened to his one for this year, but it's great as always. I recommend anyone to give it a listen, it's not just about Ireland and St Patrick, and not expicitly Christian (but implicity), but the whole world and the challenges we face and how we must face them.

Kinda looks like larry david

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 week ago (1 children)

He looks way more like Larry David than Bernie imo

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Larry David kinda sounds like Bernie sometimes, and would just need a bit of makeup to look more like him. I bet he could play him in something.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I'm pretty sure Larry David played Bernie on SNL a couple times, as a guest in cold open, etc. Lol

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I thought I had seen him doing some bits as Bernie, but I just assumed that was a dream I had 🤷🏻‍♂️

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

Does seem like perfect casting lol

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

They are distantly related too

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

Larry David and Bernie Sanders are actually cousins. They got hooked up on that PBS show sponsored by Ancestry.com.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago

Larry David slightly hobbitized

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

I think George Costanza is a better match...

[–] [email protected] 33 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Is that a picture of Danny DeVito?

[–] [email protected] 39 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Yes, from the upcoming biopic Feel The Bern.

Other notable cast members include Rosario Dawson as AOC, Taye Diggs as Cory Booker, DJ Qualls as Pete Buttigieg, Jillian Michaels as Amy Klobuchar, and the exhumed corpse of Jack Lemmon as Joe Biden.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago

A dead person would bring all the energy that they would need to portray Biden

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

the exhumed corpse of Jack Lemmon as Joe Biden

He'll finally get that third Oscar!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Rosario Dawson as AOC,

Roy Wood Jr. also referred to AOC as Rosario Dawson recently lol.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

I mean, anyone with a heart and a brain love both, so I'd say that it's a rare case of a comparison being flattering to BOTH of the people involved 😁

[–] [email protected] 30 points 1 week ago

"I am neither Danny DeVito nor Bernie Sanders, I am the one who will give you healthcare!"

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago

Good guy physiognomy sounds fake until you see those three in the same room.

I'm gonna miss Danny.
