Tom Segura describes one of his favorite exchanges between an inmate and a troubled teen from one of the wildest episodes of “Scared Straight.” Watch the full stand up comedy special “Mostly Stories” streaming on Netflix. tomsegura.com/
I saw Tom at OHare airport and yelled BIKES. He waved at me from like 50ft away as I scared the passengers waiting for our flight. Edit: Holy crap 4K likes, it was worth it!
One time I was seeing Man Of Steel in theatres and a dude had a tic where he would yell "STFU" every 10 or so minutes. He apologised to everyone beforehand so it was chill. And even provided comedic commentary at a particularly stinky part of the movie so, A+ would relive that day
"He's doing a double life sentence so when he dies and is reincarnated that man's gonna be doing life in prison" is one of the funniest jokes I've ever heard 😂
In the early 00's my roommate and I were watching 'Cops', and in one episode they were arresting a psychotic looking black dude for some thing or another. He had receding-hairline dreads, and his exposed forehead was tattooed into a solid black widow's-peak, like a vampire, and he said his name was 'Drak'. At the end of the segment when they were driving him off to jail, he stared at the camera, stuck his head out the back window of the cruiser, and yelled *"DRRRAKK!!"* at the top of his lungs. My roommate and I both died laughing for minutes. And after that, for the next few YEARS, whenever we saw each other we'd both yell *"DRRRAKK!!".* And since we were roommates, .....we saw each other *a lot.* Also at parties, in bars, and whenever trying to locate each other in stores.
I’ve never laughed this hard at anything, especially not a damn RU-vid comment! I couldn’t get up for like 5 minutes straight, that was fuckin hilarious man, great story!
I really enjoy Toms comedy but this is just an incredible composition for a joke. I mean maybe top 20 jokes of all time. To ride that all the way through to a mellow deadpan," And thats why I yell bikes all the time." So smart. Its like progressive rock.
This never gets old. I can come back to it every 3 months or so and its still hilarious. On top of that I've found the "Scared straight episode" and its excctly as he described it. :)
For some fucking reason this set runs in my head atleast once a week...n it usually ends with my yelling BIKES for no good reason... Tom Segure is the fucking best!!!
Man! Thank you for the memories. My old Science teacher used to show us scared straight, I always looked forward to it. He also used to say he was thinking of organising a field trip to the local jail for the class but apparently him and the principal agreed that we'd probably all be there soon anyway so why ruin the surprise.
@@Scrufflelump my buddy told me this too. I can appreciate that. Especially since Segura is so prominent. No way comedians didnt see this and call him on it. Rogan went to the ends to expose Mencia. Segura is his boy. Will he protect or denounce? Either way...their rich and Im not. They got the last laugh!
@@WilliamBonneyPodcast Mainstream doesnt always mean good,Kevin Hart gathers millions on his live shows but his comedy is trash,common, uncreative,basic jokes for the masses.Tom is an amazing stand up comedian,he is even better a storyteller,his material doesnt recycle like many "manstream" ones
@@WilliamBonneyPodcast so because *you* haven't heard of him he isn't a common name? What kind of barometer is that? He is regularly in the lists of top active comedians.
Ha, Bert aint any funnier than "that funny chill ass uncle" that every family has. It irritates me how much he rides all his friends coattails. Life is literally all about who you know!!
@@danpalu2308 Thank you! I felt pretty good about it but it's always nice to get that positive reinforcement! But forreal, posting comments helps the youtube channel get recommended so I try to post comments on channels and videos I like. It doesn't have to be earth shattering.
I got really wasted at my cousins wedding last month. I was told that I was yelling "Hold My Pocket!" repeatedly at 2am in the hotel lobby. Cops got called.
I went to MMI (motorcycle mechanics institute) about the time this skit came out and all you could hear on campus all day long was people screaming BIKES 😂
Ever since seeing this my dad now screams BIKES every time we see someone on a bike while driving. Every now and then it almost gives me a heart attack but I still laugh every time.
When I was in high school I was in a psychology class and as a field trip we went to the local prison. Afterwords the teacher apologized to everybody in our class because the prison guard who led us around treated our class like we were on a “scared straight tour”… We were brought into solitary confinement where the men shouted sexual obscenities at the girls in the group. Also, it was freezing in jail! The guard said they keep the temperature so cold bc inmates are “Less likely to fight with each other when they are worried about trying to stay warm.” TBH though, since that experience, I don’t ever wanna go to jail, not even for one night! I kinda think every teen should see the potential consequences of crime, via a prison tour
Dear DC .... where was this? What state and what year,to be precise.... sorry for the grilling... I'm incredibly interested as I ended up in sherrif joe arpios jail .....what an eye opener....never thought I'd experience that!
Joke on you, crime is a corporate business in US, at least ever since Reagan privatized the jails. Statistically you will be put in jail for silliest things. That's how the corporation makes a profit.
The original scared straight was 1978, the one in 1999 was scared straight, 20 years later. In 78 they showed it on TV uncensored with all the swear words. This was before our town had cable.
Look. I love comedy. I love comedians and I love to laugh. This sketch came up on my feed and I was driving listening to it. I’ve known of Tom Segura for awhile but never watched a special. This story right here, has made him my new comedian I listen to all day!!! I think I’ve seen everything Bill Burr has done and thankfully I’ve found TS. I’ve watched a lot of his shorts, but I’ve seen this 1000 times and shared it with EVERYONE. I can’t stop laughing and screaming Bikes! He reminds me of a blue collar family guy I would work with. And his black guys voices are classic.
