George Carlin’s “High Death Toll” Bit, Recorded Day Before 9/11, Has Been Released

Posted: August 17, 2016

Carlin’s new album I Kinda Like It When a Lotta People Die is scheduled to be released on September 16.

The album was recorded on September 10, 2001 (yes, the day before the World Trade Center was hit, not that we really needed to spell it out for you) and it contains a bit that remained unreleased until now.

The bit, which Carlin promptly shelved from his act the next day, expressed his desire to hear about mass casualties, albeit, from a natural disaster.

The very next day…, you know what happened. Let the conspiracy theories begin suggesting that Carlin knew the attacks were going to take place.
