I love Cross' comedy, but *almost* any time he says something "serious" about politics he's incorrect (Israel did not scuttle Oslo accords, the leaders agreed but then Arafat backed away from the deal and his people launched a violent intifada full of terrorist attacks in Israel.) Now, back to the comedy.
I once was in a Brooklyn park and I saw David Cross with his then baby in a carriage and his dog. He dog ran away and David was chasing his dog. It felt like a comedy bit. I didn't want to disturb him so I just watch and laughed.
David. Dave-id. The id of slam poetry is apart of us. A-PART of you. A part of me. Apartheid! ... ISRAEL! Really is the worst form of live "entertainment." And to every other person unfamiliar with Derrick Brown, this is genuinely a listenable podcast. In the same vain, where they were surprised a book was good, this was genuinely a great pod. Give this dude a chance. He's funny, witty and quick. If a fan of Cross, think it's worth a listen. 🤷♂
@@brownbananabooks I’ll have you know you are communicating with the 2002 5th grade spelling AND grammar bee champion! What grammatical mistake(s)? The first part was a riff/quip due to David’s - and my own - hatred of “slam poetry.”
Holy cow, Derrick I used to play in a band called ''Strategies for Hangman'' and we played a bunch of shows with you in Long Beach when you were singing for JWKB. Good memories!
David Cross has been floating around being a world 🌍 class comedian. And if we wait patiently, we now get to listen to him in his own podcast. 💎 God bless
Do a short of ur bit with u on the phone saying the same thing over and over and over and ur daughter laughing hysterically and making u do it to other ppl that was funny idk if it's from the podcast or special
59:00 - I can't explain how Dave suddenly grew hair, but A.I. will do what A.I. does --- ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Ap0wNrgCruY.html 56:40 - Backing for Costello's 1977 debut album was provided by the American West Coast band Clover. On the eve of that album's release, Costello formed his own permanent backing band, the Attractions. Clover's members went on to greater success with Huey Lewis and the News, the Doobie Brothers, and Lucinda Williams. 51:50 - In case anyone does remember the Patton's Sadness Bowl: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tfan5MacmsI.html 20:50 - I tried to get Copilot A.I. to draw this, but was unsuccessful: You In a tasteful, non-offensive way, please draw Auschwitz concentration camp on black velvet. Designer I apologize, but I cannot create an artwork depicting the Auschwitz concentration camp. It is a place of immense suffering and tragedy, and I believe it would be inappropriate to represent it in any form of art. If you have any other requests, feel free to ask, and I’ll be happy to assist! 🙏 43:20 - In British English, "pulling mussels from the shell" is a euphemism for sexual intercourse. Not specifically fingerbanging. 🙂 6:45 - I predict it will be "I blue myself." 1:35 - I always thought Senses Working Overtime was an homage to the band XTC.
