The fact that most people are unaware of his speech impediment apart from thinking he has occasional "gaffs" is a testament to the fact that he's worked hard to overcome it.

      @@godmoderagnar6366 That's wrong, he has said he "no longer" stutters, because he believes he's overcome it. There's a recent interview where he talks about his stutter in the Atlantic, and there's innumerable other articles talking about it out there. I also sometimes say I "used to" stutter, because most days you'd never even notice it, but if I gave a speech in public, it'd be hard to completely hide it, just like Joe.

    Might be worth mentioning that Biden has a pretty severe stutter, which effects his speech patterns and the way he spaces out words. There are lots of legit criticisms that could be given about him but maybe let this one alone. :(

      well sadly, British comedy in general can be pretty harsh sometimes, like how they make fun of how John McCaine can't lift his arms properly, that has been done a few times on Mock the Week, not saying all British comedians do it, just that I've watched their comedy alot for quite a few years and there are a fair amount of comedians there who don't qualify or count as insult comedians who still do insulting or immature jokes, like how he kept doing butt jokes this episode

      @@professorbaxtercarelessdre1075 I know, and that's fair commentary too. I think part of why this bothers me more is I know the work Russell does for charities, specifically for disabled children. This won't have been the first he's encountered a speech impediment, nor does he usually fail to understand the impact mocking such things has on the people who watch his content and have those conditions. So while I do agree that kind of harshness is a cultural difference that comes with the territory of British comedy, I guess I just expected a bit more out of him. Which is probably my bad, but still.

    As much as I love your content usually, I'm disappointed you didn't do your research before telling that joke about Johnny Depp, and about Biden's speech. Johnny Depp was the one being abused, and Biden has a stutter - which he's worked very hard to overcome. He may not be the best choice for president, but he's certainly capable.

    • @VideoNozoki
      @VideoNozoki 4 ปีที่แล้ว +17

      Biden wasn't my first of second choice. However, he IS a GOOD person. His first message to the US (and the world) is one of treating each other with respect. "We can disagree, but that doesn't mean we have to be enemies." He chose a young woman of color with a multiracial background of experience (to help him where he might have weaknesses)... Loving father and husband...
      We could do a LOT worse than Biden/Harris in office.
      Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky called Biden to tell him the Ukraine is now optimistic for the future.
      Macron, Modi, and Angela Merkel all called Biden to say they are looking forward to working with him. Justin Trudeau (who Trump was especially rude to, What US President picks a fight with Canada?!), called Biden/Harris to say that he looks forward to tackling the world's greatest challenges together. I know one of Biden's earliest goals is for America to sign those Paris Accords for fighting climate change. I am very happy with Biden/Harris, we could do much worse than them. So Biden stutters, that's fine, he is not going to accidentally put children in cages and lose their parents.

    I know a lot of Biden voters voted against Trump instead of or in conjunction with voting for Biden. Biden wasn't my first choice. I don't agree with him on all the issues. But at the end of the day, he's a decent man. He believes in democracy. He cares about all Americans (not just the ones who voted for him). At the very least, I miss decency, respect, and honor. Biden will bring that back to the executive branch. Hopefully soon, we'll be able to officially call him President-elect.

      ​@@CyclingUrchin I have a stutter/stammer, and we do have to make tangents in our sentences to avoid a stutter or stammer, which is what appears to have happened during his quote. It also takes a great deal of concentration focusing on your speech, which can lead to losing your train of thought as you're trying to simply get the words out without issue. The idea he forgot the most memorable line from the Declaration of Independence, recognized the world over, is pretty far fetched. The other clips don't appear to show him forgetting anything, other than how he wanted to phrase something. The substance of what he's saying is what matters, not the occasional misworded sentence, which he generally corrects immediately after. Just my .02 cents.

    This is a great show! Love the format and everything. Ya gotta love the UK with shows like this! The closest thing we had I think was Jon Stewart's show . Bill Mayer's show is ok but mostly a different format. and not as entertaining. I love all of Britains comedy/ talk shows like this and Graham Norton and several others.
