Hi Friends thanks for watching. Comment your city below 👇. I have shows coming up in Detroit, Dallas, Denver and much more. Tix are on my site. www.joshjohnsoncomedy.com
The Boeing door joke is honestly one of the best written, structured and delivered jokes I have ever heard. Shades of Dave Chappelle in the slow burn build. Absolutely brilliant there, Josh.
@@josephhih4218 he’s not the most popular, Kevin Hart sells more and is less controversial. Chappelle is, however, undoubtedly one of the greatest ever regardless of race or era. And he’s an expert at long winded, slow burning buildups leading up to extremely light punchlines that the audience doesn’t see coming. THAT’S why I made the comparison.
Josh's rhythms of delivery remind me of Chappelle, with some brighter mood and slight differences in the way he blends social commentary with anecdotes. Dave is beyond discussion of race or genre, he is the goat, and I feel Josh is on track to being his legitimate successor.
@josephhih4218 Dave isn't one of the greatest black comedians to ever touch the mic, he's one of the greatest comedians to ever touch the mic. Comparing anyone to him, regardless of race, gender, sex or age is high flattery indeed
I love the deep ass level of communication he has with his audience. Every set is like a Ted talk that is just fkn hilarious. He doesn't take himself too seriously and so it comes so naturally.
@@Tortilla.Reform He's got the observational comedy chops to put him up there with the greats. Carlin, Chapelle, Gallagher. I hope he gets his shot at being a household name like them.
Very intelligent young man. Nice to see people his generation being conscious about how society really works. I hope he gets his message through his comedy. And by the way, I worked in a collapsed bank where all the board of directors quit after collecting great severance packages and after the bank was baked out, and I thought as Josh... they should be forced to stay till it got fixed, even if it meant sitting at a desk staring at the wall for every working hour.
I just realized why I love Josh so much. In a world where most comedians are these "alpha males" or dudes who embrace being incredibly weird. Josh is just a guy like us, he's so authentic and isn't scared to be humble with some of the best self-deprecating humour I've ever heard. He's a master storyteller that I just can't get enough of.
@@a.m.gnovember151, you think Ricky Gervais is an Alpha Male.... dude what strain are you smoking cause you are in a completely different dimension rightnow, like one where people can't lie.
I clicked in some random vídeo of Josh like Two months ago. Totally random. And i went "oh i have seen this guy on the daily show". Fast forward around eight weeks and i have seen every weekly clip posts and quite a few older ones. Like, where the hell was i Not knowing Josh? I know there os Not a bridge from Portugal to the USA, but RU-vid is a click away. And i have been through a lot and somewhere around every week i have a genuine fun time watching Josh. And i think that is one of the most importante things these days. So whether you re seeing him live or watching RU-vid, i hope you are having a good laugh with the guy ❤️
"A world where you don't think you matter, terrifies me". Therapist here, the single biggest issue that presents is people thinking they don't matter. You do.
Man that marketing joke seamlessly transitioning into that Boeing joke was TOP TIER. As someone who has worked in marketing agencies and seen the BTS tactics of marketing, I deeply appreciated that joke.
There have been a few stories of bunker people having their bunkers raided, home invasion style. It begs the question, how useful is your multi million dollar bunker if someone can just take it from you. If the shit goes down and I worked on your bunkers HVAC system, I have a backup for me and my family, and it’s your bunker
He was spitting poetic bars about how important people are, and led us right into that Boeing joke. Like wow. That was absolute perfection. Got people emotional and cracking up at the same time. 😭😭
At around 8:45, "Answer! That you are here-that life exists and identity, That the powerful play goes on, and you may contribute a verse." is where he's taken me... and then...
The Golden Parachutes for failed Executives and politicians who have done so much damage is certainly infuriating. Thanks for using humor to drive home the clear ridiculousness of the practice.
It is a system for them by them. They lose the job and pass it to a friend. That guy loses the money-making job and then has to run for office for his friends to get them government-awarded contracts. They stay in office for a term and get awarded an executive job somewhere else to make money and the cycle continues.
Yep. For all of this country's love of punitive justice, we rarely hold these kind of people accountable. Then have the audacity to say that no one is above the law.
Am I being dramatic when I say that these skits light up so many of my days? It's so well thought out and makes me cackle and feel warm. But I like that he still expresses his anger which - in most parts - is my anger, too. I love this.
when I moved to America I was shocked by the ads for medications "Ask your doctor if this medication is for you" . B1tch! If I have to ask my doctor if I need that meds, I'm at the wrong doctor. My doctor should know from the get go if I need it or not. And if I have to ask for it I should charge the doctor for the visit because I'm doing their jobs
As overwhelming as the med ads are, they are a net positive. They spread the word about the HPV vaccine, educating the public that the virus is the leading cause for cervical cancer--not common knowledge before. There are HIV prevention meds we could only have dreamed possible in the 80s, and the frank approach of the ads to the idea of gay or casual sex encourages safer behavior as well as inspiring pharmaceutical companies to put money into developing new drugs for a formerly hidden market. Doctors can't know everything, and they're not immune to influence by sales reps, so if they suggest a medication, it's not necessarily because it's the best option. You might see an ad for a medication that potentially addresses your issue better than one you're taking. You can research it, decide to talk to your doctor about it, and you both are a little bit better educated.
I was in Brooklyn and yes, I thought my grandma‘s old apartment was falling grab my dog and ran outside. I thought it was the apartment I did not know it was an earthquake. That’s how bad the apartment is.😂😂😂😂
And as you sit in your increasingly shaky seat, the plane starts to tilt, allowing you to look past the other passengers out the window, and you see the captain slowly descending on a golden parachute
Just because you took the risk of speaking truth to power at the beginning of you gaining serious traction in the debate for who’s the best in Stand-Up Comedy right now
Drinking the Kool-aid referred to Ken Kesey (author of "One Flew Over The Cookoo's Nest') and His Merry Pranksters dropping LSD into Kool-Aid during their cross country jaunt in a school bus in 1964: "Can you pass the Acid rest?" Thomas Wolfe wrote a book about it called "The Electric Kool-aid Acid Test." Simultaneously, Hunter S Thopson was travelling with and writing about the Hell's Angel's motorcycle gang. This was circa 1964-1966.
I appreciate that you are giving us comedy with a conscience. You manage to incorporate really serious topics into your jokes without being disrespectful. Given the topics at hand I believe thats a concentrated effort on your part and it is appreciated. You also planted a nice seed for audience discussion for after the show/video. Thats smart. Get us talking about REAL SHIT but make us laugh too so the severity of it all doesnt get overwhelming. During the Celebrity Blockout of 2024 (aka Digitine) Im Subscribing to Josh Johnson.
I remember my 1st earthquake. I felt like a New Yorker bc I thought it was a Giant Rat under my Bed. I laying down and bed started shaking... I screamed rat & 2 secs after some1 screamed earthquake... I then said "oh that mks more sense 😅".Then Went bk to sleep. Lol
Brilliant! Josh truly is the comedian of these trying times. Extremely intelligent and downright hilarious. I haven’t been this amazed since Carlin passed away.
“You are as important as every bolt … on the door of a Boeing plane” 🎤💥 the way Josh did that was top tier! He’s setting a new bar for the art of standup.
The book " Audacity of Greed " will make you want to vomit. Multiple documented cases of CEOs " Huge Companies"ruined - CEO gets millions even for years
Lol, am I the only one old enough to remember that they actually used Flavor Aid - the Kool Aid for poors?🤣 And yet Kool Aid has somehow survived the mistaken association, maybe even capitalized on it.😅
@@septemberamyx It's an American company and brand(sold in the US as well). Almost as old as Kool Aid itself(2 years after). The Jonestown people had both Flavour Aid and Kool Aid tho, they just poisoned people with Flavour Aid, probably didn't want to waste the Kool Aid on something like that and just killed people with the cheaper shit....
Considering he was a replacement for the last CEO to get fired, I bet the next one is ready to step in and DO ABSOLUTELY NOTHING and just wait for the paycheck.
I thought Josh was going to say that the bunker people are going to suddenly start showing up, 10 - 15 years later, like some soldier who has been in hiding in the jungle since WWII.
@@Tortilla.ReformIt would be a pretty funny dark comedy to have a guy go into his bunker just to come back to a world that is mostly the same just shittier
I came in for the usual Josh hilarity and instead ended up in tears from your words then laughing again. You truly have a talent and I cant wait to see you get the recognition you deserve
Josh, your work is becoming more legendary with each passing experience. Your observations are so unique (the bunkers & their false flags). Your setups are beyond reach at this point (each as valuable as a bolt... 😂). I'm so grateful to get to witness your evolution and purpose unfold. Bravo! 💐
You really made me feel less lonely, Josh. It’s amazing I don’t actually know and how much you move me emotionally and how much you help me through comedy. You really matter to me.
That joke about women klllling made me a fan for life. Up til now only Chappelle was getting away with jokes like that. We see you Josh! Keep em coming!
The thoughts he has while being sober is intense. I greatly appreciate his humorous way of telling his thoughts on current events and philosophical/social topics. There's always new homes/humorous topics he comes up with for someone who is a stand up comic.
That analogy between the CEO who leaves the Company with a Golden Parachute and the Captain who parachutes out of the plane was brilliant! Pure Comedy Gold, that does not only make you laugh. It makes you THINK!
He has a great point of view and I enjoy his delivery. I can see him learning to tighten his material with experience. We're watching the evolution of a very powerful comedian.
Really enjoy your comedy. I do just want to mention that Dave Calhoun is a terrific CEO. He was our CEO at the Nielsen Company and he more than double the value of our company by doing very savvy moves. The trouble with Boeing started long before Dave got there, and the troubles goes so deep with so many people all the way down to the personnel who build the aircraft. The biggest blunder, producing the 737 Max was already done before Dave. That plane was scheduled to be retired and should have been replaced by a new design but to save money they decided to Frankenstein engineer the 737 which should have never happened. Dave has had to make very tough decisions but he is honest, ethical and makes extremely good decisions. That CEO chair was cursed and it could've been a lot worse with anyone else.
Omg that pep talk in the middle of the video was so needed. I’m sitting here watching this on break during a rough shift and it’s been a rough two weeks. Thanks for the motivation that led straight into a laugh!
Been laughing at your comedy for years. You just keep getting better and better. Wish I could catch you live, but in S. Korea. Hope you come to Korea one day😊 Have a great day, Josh~~
