The ability to sprinkle previous crowd work into memorized bits later is the most insane thing to me. Like you literally have to have material so tight / memorized that your only thought is “where can I do a callback” true elite shit imo
Very funny and delightfully weird! :) I almost caught Sam performing in Prague couple of months ago (probably some of this material) Really sad it couldn't see it live! Thank you for putting your special on YT, Sam! Ga'bless!
You know you’re funny when you hit half a million in a week while your cameras were being run by two men who just boofed 2 teenths of Terrys Turbo Crystals.
I wasn’t able to read before I bought Sam’s book. I still can’t read, but I had my older brother read the book out loud for me and it’s the best book I’ve ever had read for me. Reads like a movie.
damn, you've watched a lot of Netflix specials. I can only think of around 20 at most that are worth seeing, but you've seen 1000 Netflix specials. Impressive.
@@ephre 20 at most? now who can't count, you glib c&nt?? there are 2.7 specials worth watching on netflix and you've already watched them at all times.
Howie told me to tell Sam Tortellini that he needed to lose 100 pounds before he’d let him on AGT! Sam told him he could lose that weight if Howie would just HOP OFF HIS GD SACK during the MSSP ep.
I saw nothing wrong with the crowd they filmed with but holy shit that guy getting walked in the other show was a lunatic. I wonder what his favorite football team is
This is up there with Shane’s RU-vid special… I liked Sam in the cast but now he is one of my favourite comedians dude is funny af… not one face went un-diddled😂😂😂
If you were camera 1...bruh. crank the ISO, noise be damned. Then tighten the F-stop so you dont have a focal plane of 2 inches. And if you weren't cam 1, for the love of fuckery, tell them. Or just bring in more lights.
does anyone else think that the shitty quality of the video makes you feels like right in the room watching this live, it gives it some authenticity. Really great jokes and killer execution.
I’m hanging out by myself on Christmas Sam. This is like a Christmas present. I’m super excited and can’t wait! All of us Dawgs are with you and merry Christmas buddy pants!
@@Doug_Brest You're right, it is also a Norm joke. But it is also a Kent Brockman joke. Those 2 worlds were connected with some of the same like minded writers.
I was sitting up front for this, thank you Sam for telling me my haircut was dumb and for asking my girlfriend to imagine you doing missionary with her. Made my night
Sam's a Thiccc Boy! Thiccc Boy Squad 🎵 Thiccc Boy Nation 🎵 if you want 25 more minutes of funny talk check out the Gringo Papi, which has 2 MILLION VIEWS!!
Yes sir, he's quick as a whip and can keep up with Tony who can match wits with the Devil himself. It makes for a great show, I'm a new KT fan but I'm hoping to see those two and that hilarious fat David guy, the black roast guy just a wealth of talent David Lucas is his fat talented name
I only wanted to come on and bash him on BL plus Dylan...and he just went in on the 2 things that I wanted to write about. Fair play. Super great intro
I once saw Sam in a bar and he absolutely refused to win a game of pool against me. Even if he had the 8 ball perfectly lined up he’d throw the game to make sure I got to win every time. Stand up guy
Dude had me laughing so hard over the dishes my 7 year came in concerned as she never heard me laugh that hard, ever. Just…thank you Sam. Ty you fat genius. Live long and prosper.
Yeah whenever he made fun of the people or the individual that was laughing hard in the audience I was ugly laughing at home in front of the mirror just happened to be sitting down a couple times I really really love this fella man oh my gosh talk about😂😂🎉
@@benh266 don't get me wrong, I barely got through that Howie Mandel episode with him. But I kinda liked this special. Maybe not great, but he's good at standup.
@@benh266yes we are watching the same thing but also different people can have different opinions on the same thing. I thought this was pretty good for a guy most people have never even heard of.
I like sam, he is so fun on the pod but this special really didnt do it for me. The only critisism i can give is how much he use the self deprecating of his jokes. Almost every second joke he stops, wait for a reaction and then says something like "that was a good joke" or "not funny? bummer..." Hopefully everyone else likes it so he get’s the spotlight he deserves.
Haha, interestingly I actually like that because of how quickly he processes and analyzes situations. Guess this is all subjective. However, I'd say the special doesn't showcase his true humour 100%, so I agree it doesn't do it for me fully. Unfortunately I guess you have to expect the material aimed at the general public to be generalized and toned down intellectually
So great; the energy and manic brakes-cut speed were unreal. This is how a comedy special should, could, can, and hopefully will be from now on (absolutely gorgeous and hilarious from start to finish).
Worked a double today and this was the first thing I watched when I got out. Made it through the entire thing laughing my ass off. Thank you Sam and thanks Shaman and Big Dog for releasing this here.
@@mommymilestones Respectfully ma'am, I respect your expertise on the method of waterglassing farm fresh eggs but can you do us a kindness and not post such vitriol on a video such as this. Good day and god bless.
Club specials where you can hear and see individuals laughing will always be funnier than a huge blank stage in a theater and a wall of audience noise with silhouettes
That's fair, but I feel like stand up comedy isn't a place to showcase smart jokes - the general public isn't that smart, so it would be not knowing your audience. If you read his book, I think it's a better overview of his intellect A good example of this is Nick Mullen - he's a smart dude in ways, but his standup doesn't show that at all
I love Sams style of humor bc he knows we’re all smart enough to get these weird references like the map blowing wind guy .. that is so funny I absolutely love Sam these jokes are beyond smart I love it 🥰
"You can leave your beanie on, brother" made me scared how long I was laughing...undulating waves of laughter...paused the video to let it run its course. For a big fella he sure gives good ab workouts.
Awesome special! I saw Sam open for Tim Dillon last year in London and he was legit the best comedian I’ve seen live! Keep killing it Sam, happy new year!
Love ya work Sam, i especially love all of the out of focus, shaky shots! I seen u open for Tim Dillon in Perth West Australia, you killed Tim that night!
Absolutely I was going to comment the same thing but you beat me to it. What a phenomenal special I haven’t seen something this funny AND unique probably since Stanhope’s Beer Hall Putsch.
You’re having sex with Sam and, you’re faced with the decision to either, open your mouth to scream for help at the risk of his sweat falling into your mouth or, lean in to it in the hopes that he finishes faster. What would you do?
I met Sam Tallent at a bar in Toronto, bought his book and offered him a joint while we watched a comic fight a patron. Sam passed on the offer. I have since developed an intense drinking problem and would like to offer Sam a drink next time he’s around.
Holy shit. You know there's these things called tripods now guys. You don't need to have a guy with his hand through the camcorder strap trying his hardest to hold steady
Good job Sam. 👏 😂 that Tokyo segment had me rolling. Every once in a while you find one in ur chest hair and mail em back! Lmfao that was a great tag bro.
Doing podcasts does not mean you are a funny stand up. This special proved he is not good at stand up and needed years more practice till he was ready for a special.
The whole reason RU-vid specials are becoming more popular is because it allows them to not need Netflix. If this gets a couple million views (which it likely will) it will propel him better than Netflix probably would’ve.
Watched this twice now and never thought once about the camera work. Why is everybody such a fuckin nerd now. This is the only funny comedy special to come out all year and you're talking about camera work
Yeah I don’t want to be mean but I want to give constructive feedback. This special just wasn’t entertaining to watch. It was almost entirely crowd work and it wasn’t the kind that the viewer could laugh at if they weren’t there. I hope that you have the opportunity to make another one and you are able to use your material there
😂😂😂😂 this special had me dying of laughter, definitely one of my new favorite comedians im gonna keep my eyes on shit in my mouth gape my ass beat me blue? Shout out to Sam
This was the most fun I’ve had watching a special in years if not ever. I can’t remember the last special I watched in 1 sitting but this was an absolute treat. The comedy was so good I didn’t even care that the production was bad. Keep it up Sam.
@@bentley230 I really only watch podcast and watching comedians be their organic selves + be hilarious is a lot more entertaining than a set of standup to me. It’s a common take, also never had TikTok, nice swing and a miss with your dumb comment.
