Subscribe goo.gl/Q2kKrD
Here’s a rundown of his resume: he’s written for "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" and was the first stand-up comedian to perform on the show. But, it was his breakout performance on the Comedy Central Roast of Donald Trump that really got people talking. Since then, he’s become one of the most sought-after comics on the scene, and has lampooned other celebs like Charlie Sheen and Roseanne Barr. In this video, www.WatchMojo.com heads to Montreal's JFL to speak with Jeselnik about his on-stage persona, the limits of comedy, and his comedic influences. We also chat about the specific rules certain celebs have at Roasts, and what you can and can’t mock.
He was my good friend when I briefly lived in Los Angeles. He’s actually a really really nice man but his comedy just kills every time. I love it.
Honestly love this guy's sense of humor. His Netflix special was insanely funny
Is the vid on youtube too?.Cause i would like to watch it.
+dharmaboy75 shark attack xD
+HadesMrDark its "shark party"
+PC Principal Netflix is like aids, you either already have it, or your probably not gonna get it, unless you get peer pressured into getting it.
+HadesMrDark smile you son of a bitch, shark party
"is anything off limits"
"no but you have to deal with the consequences"
This is not just comedy, this is life.
Two things. One, that's hilarious how he told the Holocaust joke twice at the same comedy show, just to let the audience know he didn't care. That's classic Jeselnik! 🤣🤣 Two, I hope to God he plowed that hot ass reporter once the cameras went off! 👍🏿👍🏿😁
I would love some behind-the-scenes
It's so weird to see him actually be HIM
Sokka2Me yes 😂
Nothing better than a non apologetic comedian
+Zornbringer potential? He's been on 3 roasts, had a CC show, netflix special, 2 other cd's before that, been on a few late night shows, and tours nationally. But yeah.. potential
+dannyboy785 don't cry about it please
Zornbringer, go back and watch Bill Hicks' stuff. There's some funny bits in there, but there's also a fair amount of unfunny prothletising. Saying that Bill Hicks is deep or hilarious is like a silly teenager who just got a book of Jim Morrison's poetry and thinks they're deep. Jim Morrison was a twenty-something alcoholic who died in a bathtub, and Bill Hicks had some good bits, but was an angry guy who favored his anger over being funny. I liked Hicks, but he wasn't the panacea for comedy.
@@crackers472 Hicks is deep. You clearly didn't grasp what he spoke about. Ignorance is bliss though, keep thinking that way and you'll turn out just fine. o.O
The problem is its becoming the exception and not the rule. Comedians need to be willing to say whatever they feel is funny. You may not like what they say but other may. And as Patrice O'Neal said: funny or not it all comes from the same place.
Dude, watchmojo, seriously.
THIS is good content. Enough with making lists about the Top 10 shirts the Rachel wore on Friends. Let's see more material like this. So much better than another lazy list.
Rachel's best shirt that she wore on Friends was that one that you could see her nipples through. Oh, that was all of them.
Ha well said. That shirt joke would make a top ten list of snarky mojo put downs.
Top ten shirts Rachel wore on Friends sounds lit.
Kairi091 absolutely agreed
Kairi091 they should do a top 10 lists of their most pointless top 10 lists
that "I went to college" line is genius.
+Kit Palmer i knew i had a million options
lol awesome.
+Kit Palmer now if he would have said he went to college at Vanderbilt...THAT would have been genius
David Foust leave it to the professionals buddy
+Kit Palmer that's why his show di's so well huh? If you use the name of a college that's known for rapes, it adds something IMHO. Ex. there's a guy I went to high school who always thought he was better than me, told me he was going to college at Kent state....so I joined the national guard.
that baby in the hot car joke gets me every time 😂😂😂
You should hear the one on his new special on Netflix! Lol it's pretty much the same just with a little bit added and even funnier!
incogneterpeter I've already watched it. Unless he's got a second special. He's so fucking funny.
+Billy Bones it was just put on Netflix from what I was told
She definitely got the Jeseldick after the interview
+dereck dereckson If she didn't she's an idiot. Tap That If You Can!
"Tap that if you can". oficial logo of AIDS.
dereck dereckson Isi
L M A O
ye for sure if he wasnt gay
Holy fuck, I can finally put a face to her voice lol
If you can't joke about it, then you can't deal with it.
Eric Stenson so true.. can't handle the heat get out the kitchen
"God bless." Holy hell, that's hilarious.
Nicholas S. My mom does it all the time, multiple times a day.
It’s why I still live at her house even though I’m 32
I can't tell if she asked all the right questions or he's really good at explaining his process but this was way more in depth than I thought it'd be, great interview
that joke about his holocaust denier grandma is so amazing, holy shit
He is a classic before his time.A true comic. His timing is perfect, He's a comic genius.
“Thank you for coming to my room.” Lol
She received the jeseldik?
This guy is hilarious. My favorite joke of his is, " My Uncle runs a camp for kids who are about to be molested." That shit is dark and funny.
Swears he hasn't worked a day in his life! Says the long hours are hard... But the benefits... The benefits seem to make it all worth it.
😂😂🤣🤣🤘🤘
There's no darker topic than child molesting. When a good joke comes out of there it's very satisfying.
@@philvacanti1446 maybe its me ,but what the fuck could possibly "funny"about child molestation?
'
'
@@nextphase5854 anything has the potential to be funny
@@nextphase5854 the actual act of child molestation isn’t funny obviously. But jokes about it can be funny. If it’s not about a particular person and obviously fictional. Yea it can be funny
The only time an offensive joke is actually offensive to me is when it's not funny.
+LEDN42 subjective.
Sim plicxs
No it is not. No word or phrase is objectively offensive on its own. It's only when we apply our own personal values to them that we then decide if a word or phrase is offensive.
For example:
Retarded by itself simply means "To have slowed down or to have been made slower."
Negro by itself simply means "The color black."
Faggot by itself simply means "Bungle of sticks."
See what I mean? At the end of the day, a person chooses to be offended. Offense is never thrust upon them.
+LEDN42 that is exactly what I said, my friend... it's subjective
Sim plicxs
Terribly sorry. I thought this comment was made on a different video. haha. It's all good.
+LEDN42 it's all cool,buddy
You can somewhat tell when he is character when he isn't. Real him is natural smooth and character him is movie smooth.
Hugh Honey wtf? Lol
Hugh Honey that was more of a vick vinegar line man
Literally the stupidest shit I’ve ever heard or the best troll.
HE's amazing at what he does, and I don't know if he knows how phenomenal his voice is. He could have done almost anything in broadcasting, TV, theater, or whatever with a voice like that. Keep working that gift!!!
He and Burr are hands down my favorites comics today.
Honestly Jeselnik is right, once sick people accept a sickness they really, in my experience, aren't that touchy about it. For example I have epilepsy, and now that I'm adjusted to the idea of it, I find all jokes about epilepsy hilarious! It's a shame his show got cancelled.
+Kristian Brandt See, if you really wanted to kill that, you should have said "For example, I have epilepsy, and now tha I'm adjusted to the idea of it, I shake with laughter when I hear an epilepsy joke."
Born 3 months early here. I'm legally blind and, for years, I'd end every blind class with "See ya."
+Blind Ryan I'm shaking with laughter right know, that's a good one XD My electric boogie is certainly the best out there ;) Come to think of it, I'm not sure that one works with the blind. It's a sort of dance. I can't think of anything constructive I'd do with blindness. Think I'd just end up touching up women all the time XD
+Kristian Brandt Never saw the point. I used my cane for violence against idiots who didn't know to get the fuck out of the way of the legally blind guy. Helps that I'm built like a brick shithouse with a huge beard. You don't need eyes to feel that scared look they all get when they turn away from their phones or screaming kids to scramble the fuck out of my way.
+Blind Ryan Using your handicap to be a complete arse towards people, boy that's low.... Absolutely love it ;) Why the fuck haven't I thought of that. You can't actually tell by looking at me that I'm sick, but I suppose I could use it when standing in line. How's this "Excuse me sir I have epilepsy, and standing up too long at a time causes me to have fits, can I please cut in front of you?" ?
Don't forget to add the shakes. I'm not a bad guy but, fuck me, we've got shit to do and standing around impedes that.
Seriously, do people just go out so they can talk on their phones in front of other people?
Most totally honest comedian on the planet. We need a hundred more comics like him.
I wish him and Greg Geraldo could've done a roast together
The most relaxed interview I've ever seen Anthony do.
It's hilarious that he said this about Donald Trump 4 years ago
.
Love this guy's stuff. That last Netflix special he did was perfect. I like how he explained himself at the end of it and he makes a good point about the 'thoughts and prayers', which it was titled after.
This man is by far my favorite comedian ever. To me, even better than chapelle. I just love this style of comedy so much, i could listen for days
Why compare apples to oranges?
"Thank you, thank you for coming to my room" that made me laugh in a middle school way 😄
This guy is brilliant, period. And so different. He has his own style. I admire him. Hew brings a lot to the discussion.
HIs best burn was in the roast of Roseanne to Katy Sagal. "Katy Sagal you are a brilliant actress you starred in Married With Children the show that changed comedy Sons of Anarchy the show that took drama to a whole new level and 8 Simple rules the show that killed John Ritter". I love Katy Sagal and every character she has played but that was an incredible burn.
More than just being an outrageous comic, Anthony pulls off the hardest type of joke writing there is and it’s amazing to watch
We need more people like him.
Anthony Jeselnik is one of the top-ten greatest stand-ups of all-time imo.
One of the best interviews of him ever
I loved this interview, I had no idea he actually had a good personality and was down to earth. I love his sense of humor and now respect him a little more hearing him say his own jokes are disgusting and awful haha.I want a new netflix special already. His last one was gold.
Jeselnik is the best troll on the planet!
Wow you're the same nigga from the dayseeker video!
Sasha baron cohen
I dunno, poppy is a pretty good troll
one one of my favorites since I saw him on Comedy Central Presents
I love his dark humor. The more dark, the better.
I always wondered to whom that voice belonged to! Pretty lady
Anthony: "Thank you for coming to my room."
Me: "Holy Shit, there's a bed in the background."
"thank you for coming to my room. Would you like a glass of water with your rufie?"
"Thank you for coming to my room" LOL
Just the funniest comic working today.., the greatest have always pushed the boundaries...
That"Situation" joke was hilarious. Snoop Dogg thought so too
Love this guy. I try to watch anything with him in it. Anthony Jeselnik is just really smart and hilarious, love his personality on stage!!!
Best roaster since greg girardo...
Ross
Sam Ortmann leggero is sick too
Rafael Octávio Damn... I miss Girardo. That man was a fucking genious.
+Rafael Octávio He can't take all the credit! I'm not sure if you're aware... But Mike the "Situation" is his ghost writer... I read about it in a book about it.
+B Row ur saying mike the situation writes for someone else??
I’ve come to love Anthony’s comedy. It’s always Interesting to see him off stage. He’s actually really nice guy. Makes me like him even more.
one of the best comedians today. I'd love to see him on The Joe Rogan Experience.
He was on JRE not long ago, did you see it?
@@RobBluth Joe interviewed himself on that one
Roe Jogan sucks
One of my favs for sure.
Ha! Saying, "No one's gonna be sad if you get cancer" to Trump. Legend!
I love this dude's style of comedy. he just truly doesn't give a shit! I wish there were more comedians out there with that kind of balls.
Now that was an awesome interview. Good, open questions by an interviewer that knew the subject material.
I have a lot more respect for this guy now.
Why?... Because you just figured out they were jokes?
xfactorb25222 Basically, yeah. I need to learn to take things less seriously.
I love his comedy. The Casey Anthony joke is the worst.
"You can't make that joke, Casey Anthony is my niece"
--that's not true
"yes she is, here;'s a picture of me and her"
--no. I believe you. I mean she WAS your niece
You mean "Casey Anthony's daughter is my niece"?
Casey Anthony is still alive
@@ewoknroll lol i'm lost
@Dayz Ahat Casey Anthony is the mother’s name 😂 Caylee Anthony is the daughter whose name he meant to say.
I'm so glad this channel has the Subs they deserve, I've followed their channel since they had less than 200,000 and it almost makes me cry tears of joy when I picture a baby locked inside a hot car.
Definitely my favorite comedian!
His technique is genius and simple all at once...
He can do the dark humor because that's not the joke, it's the unexpected punchline.
The best and simplest comedy is based on the unexpected. Dave Chappelle said that's what even makes a silly old joke like "Why did the chicken cross the road?" funny...because you don't expect an answer as simple as to get to the other side.
Anthony has mastered that unexpected punchline. He's exactly right the "tension" (or anticipation) with his tyle comes from you don't know where or how far he's going to take it. But his focus is never the subject, in his case the dark humor, it's playing with your expectations of him. Genius.
the guy on the couch has such an unmistakable voice.
Because Actors are reading a script and don't have any connection to the characters they are playing, but a comedian is writing and telling jokes that came from their own mind, so people can argue thats really how they feel, and who they are.
And who are you?
love how these double digit iq people hate him so much xD He is one of the greatest around these days.
First watchmojo video I've ever thumbs up'd.
Interviewer seemed a little shy. Needs to spark up a lot. Questions were decent at least.
The Reasonable Atheist odd because she does the voice for watchmojo very well and relaxed
Can't wait for his next special
20 bucks on he hit that
L
+Jaymzofsteel $40 he didn't.
$3.50 says he gave her two in the pink and one in the stink.
true but punching her in the face was the only way to make her leave!
I doubt it but it wouldn't be for lack of trying....on her part
5:00 "They give you certain rules about things you can't say at a roast. Like Donald Trump said: 'You can't say I have less money than I say I do.'"
Lmfao!! I'm shaking my fucking head! You can take that claim to the bank because I guarantee Jeselnik is telling the truth there lol!
He's fucking awesome
Easily one of the best out there
This is the best list WatchMojo has ever done
Next six years of watchmojo:
"Top ten numbers below eleven! You wont believe number 3!"
Ha!
Most underrated comedian ever.
great comic, handsome guy
He couldn't pull it off otherwise. The stoic demeanor and menacing smile are 3/4 of the act....the other 1/4 is writing brilliant one liners.
@@Strik.9 half half tbf
Comedy isn't just about the material. I could do the exact same set as Anthony, but I would get booed off the stage. I find his delivery hilarious. How anyone can be as uptight as you is beyond me.
I must've missed the part where he told what you can't say at roasts. Good interview though.
somewhere after @ 3:50 he says you can't say rape jokes because blah blahblah myke tyson, donald trump...
@Nazarene Nazarite do you mean like in a group sex way? Cause yeah, I'd be down for that
"Thank you for coming to my room."😉
Love the way he holds the mic..
“Nobody’s gonna be sad when you get cancer.” Truth
Interviewing with a messy bed in the background? Classy, lady!
sheen ; "no dude, you can" t joke about my mom"
How he can be angry if he doesn" t know who she is? lol
While I can fully see why you wouldn't like him, for me he is one of the best comedians alive. He brings something new to the field, there are not many people that can make jokes about the topics he does and get away with it.
"Thank you for coming to my room."
Giggle
Finally some quality content from watchmojo
Ugh... he is so HOT
I can't believe it happened twice.
That's BRILLIANT.
He’s so different on stage than when he steps off
I love this guy.
He's hot...
Pure comedic genius.
SHARK PARTY!!!
Rebecca is just beautiful!!
Awesome video of his in depth process!
haha hella pervey stare at the end
I loved his stand up on Netflix, and seeing this was awesome to see how he is off stage. Very smart and knows what he's doing.
And then the camera man left the room lol
hahaha
or did he???
Seems so authentic, look at what a mess the bed is. LOL That's how mine would look, not what I would expect from a celebrity interview. Love it. 🤗👍😏
Nothing is off limits in comedy. You don't get to choose whats funny and what is not. If its funny it is and if its not then its not no matter how offensive or non-offensive.
Dustin DeBolt exactly
Really interesting to see his offstage persona.
Thank you for coming to my room. Would you like to test the sheets?
He is a great actor.
once dated Amy Schumer. gotta shorten those sideburns.
+Martin Caidin they are back together now ^^
No way!!
She's gross.
Martin Caidin why shorten his side burns? Are you going to ask him out if he does?
I looked couple of her show on youtube, and now I'm hooked! He is awesome!
So thats what you looks like :D
after hearing this girls voice in so many top 10s, its good to finally put a face to it
mean jokes are the best jokes
