Bill Burr Divides SNL Viewers With Controversial Monologue
Bill Burr has been a staple of the comedy world for quite some time now and fans always expect the best from him. As a standup comic who got his start decades ago, Burr has never been one for being politically correct. On his podcast, Burr has made sure to toe the line of what some on Twitter would deem as unacceptable. Regardless, Burr has made it clear that he has no problems giving his true thoughts on any topic, needless of whether or not it will get him into trouble.
This was especially true during his recent Saturday Night Live monologue. In fact, Burr touched on the Black Lives Matter movement and those who try to co-opt it. Burr specifically took aim at white women, which as you can imagine, led to mixed reactions on social media. The comedian also made some comments about Pride Month.
“Somehow, white women swung their Gucci booted feet over the fence of oppression and stuck themselves at the front of the line,” Burr said. “My life is so hard. My SUV and my heated seats. You have no idea what it’s like to be me.”
“That’s a little long, don’t you think? For a group of people that were never enslaved?” Burr said about Pride Month being longer than Black History Month. “How did they get all of June? The Black people were actually enslaved, they get February. They get 28 days of overcast weather. Sun goes down at 4 in the afternoon, everybody’s shivering, no one wants to go in the parade.”
Throughout the monologue, fans and detractors took to social media to give their opinions on what went down. As you will see in the tweets below, some felt the monologue was disgusting, while others were excited to see Burr doing what they’ve come to expect from him: provocation.

Kyle Ashen’s sun-drenched recollection with new release “That Local Girl”
Kyle Ashen’s latest release, “That Local Girl,” is a gorgeous trip down memory lane, a country single that explores that golden glow of memory, like flipping through old photographs touched by salt air and summer sunlight. It’s warm, cinematic, and deeply relatable, a song about the kind of love story that never quite goes away, even as time moves on.
“That Local Girl” is filled with imagery that quickly takes the listener into a world they can walk right into. You got a blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl on a boardwalk street by the ocean, a souped-up truck driving through town, neon lights reflecting off the ocean breeze, and the electric innocence of young love burning in the background.
But under all that cutesy trapping is something more than that, longing. Some people, some places that leave permanent marks on Kyle Ashen and us know that. What’s so brilliant about this song is that it marries those two ideas, making love and hometown memory feel beautifully inseparable. Sometimes you miss a person. And with that person, you miss an entire version of life. “That Local Girl” is more than a country love song from Kyle Ashen. He is a living postcard from the past, sun-faded, bittersweet, and glowing with feeling. A reminder that summers pass by, but some memories stay with us forever.
