When and how did comedy become so fucking gay?

[Honeycomb Hideout]

Absolutely. Lest we forget, tiny Joe said there’s “probably 500 of us (comics) on the planet…more like 250.”

Hes not a fucking comedian

Well the CIA hired Jon Stewart to enforce corporate speak on the comedy world and here we are.

The CIA is gay

What? Comedy has never been better. Comedian tells me to respect gays and minorities, I laugh in agreeance because it signals that I am a good person.

He's right about there being very few funny comics but he isn't among that number.

Aside from society getting softer, I also blame Louis. Before him, even the comedians who thought they were philosophers still recognized they were dancing monkeys at the end of the day. Suddenly Louis is out there handing down life lessons on the stage, putting out black and white art films and calling it a tv show, hanging out with the elitest of the elite of NYC liberals. Next thing you know, the Blobby Kelly’s and Jim Nortons of the world think anyone wants to hear their opinions on life in general.

The problem is in like 2006 we hit peak shock value and now nothing can hit that high watermark because there's nowhere further to go.

And a reminder he was making this point to try and say doctors are worth less than comedians because “Theres probably a million doctors. How many comics are there?”

This of course only takes second place to the faggotry Rogan and his guests practice which is LITERALLY saying Comedy is the HARDEST JOB IN THE WORLD. Not surgeon, not oil rig workers, comedy, because “It takes a lot of fuckin work to just get up on that stage night after night and perfect your craft”

I hope they all die

And Louis was just doing his best to copy Woody Allen's career trajectory, going from the biggest stand up in the country to esoteric film maker. Except Woody Allen movies are usually good because he understands how to people behave, whereas Louis thinks he's being clever by having women of different ages and backgrounds scold him for being a white man. We get it asshole, you were raised by a single mother and hate your dad.

I'm never not going to love that The Godfather of Modern Comedy is a man so autistic he can't understand someone joking unless they telegraph they're about to make a haha before doing so.

Andrew Silverstein cosplayed as a tough guy because he loved John Travolta's dancing in Grease, and his entire act was telling nursery rhymes with dirty lyrics.

Don’t you wish someone would tell you when you’re in the good old days when you’re in them? Also Ari pulls down his pants and shows the whole audience his cock in one of these episodes. It’s super wacky.

They cut Andy Andrist’s (Stanhope’s friend) set because he made fun of the troops. Crazy how the world has changed since then.

like everything else it became a grift

I could never imagine going to see a podcast live. It just sounds awful, you’re going to watch some people talk and hopefully they say something funny while talking to each other.

I'd never go now but Andy Andrist live with Chaile and the other chuckle head or two was a great night a few years back. He told a great story about Gary Busy stopping him from cutting a line at a catering table at a hollywood party
