“It’s a fictional podcast character created by two human beings, Will Sasso and Chad Kultgen,” spokeswoman Danielle Del told the newspaper.

The lawsuit also cites numerous social media posts where Carlin’s name and image are used to promote the special or the Dudesy podcast.

Anticipating potential free speech defenses, the lawsuit argues that the special "has no comedic or creative value absent its self-proclaimed connection with George Carlin” and that it doesn’t “satirize him as a performer or offer an independent critique of society.”

Kelly Carlin, the late comedian’s daughter, told The Daily Beast earlier this month that she was talking to lawyers about potential legal action.

"It is a poorly executed facsimile cobbled together by unscrupulous individuals to capitalize on the extraordinary goodwill my father established with his adoring fanbase.”

The lawsuit asks a court to force Dudesy to “remove, take down, and destroy any video or audio copies… of the ‘George Carlin Special,’ wherever they may be located,” as well as pay punitive damages.
