Tig Notaro is a remarkable human being. She’s beloved in the comedy community because she’s not only hilarious but a genuinely good person. It wasn’t until I saw a documentary on her health issues and personal tragedies that I realized how much she’s endured.
She has this wonderfully dry sense of humor that reminds me of British comedians of the 70's. Very few comedians have made me laugh as hard as she has. The only problem is some of them are so dry and delivered with such perfect dead-pan, that it takes my slow ass a minute to get it.
Tig remains one of my favourite comedians - She's just so funny, and brutally honest to the point of absurdity, which just loops back around to hilarity. That is a pretty sick cane too.
Ya know, I have only seen Tig on Colberts show and a handful of other things here and there. Every time she’s on again, I’m like “geez, I really need to watch more of her stuff” she is awesome
I love Tig! I came across her stand-up one night as I was scrolling endlessly for something to watch. I started it, thinking I’d just use for background noise to fall asleep to. Oh boy, was I wrong. Right away I was drawn to her personality & I laughed so hard, it was like a release valve. lol Her humor spoke to my soul. 😊 Hope your leg heals well & quickly, Tig.
Freedom of speech doesn't mean freedom from consequence. An empathic person realizes that sometimes it isn't the speaker who has to suffer them. Maybe sometimes, we have to self censor... if we want to be good people.
I agree a 100% if that refers to one-on-one or other forms of balanced communication in a closed social context. It does not apply when it comes to freedom of speech in public, especially in the media or any form of sender-receiver-communication where you are not obliged to be in the receiving position. Sarcasm, irony, exxageration, provocation and even aggressive and sometimes offending rhetoric are very important for a functioning transparent public discourse, forming opinions, hence for an open society. If one cannot bare this, one shouldn´t participate in the public discourse. If you demand that the rules of the discourse are to be changed so that noone will be offended at anytime or if you demand that other opinions than your own must be suppressed - because of yourself being offended by them - you´re demanding cencorship and there would be no open discourse. That´s btw exactly what rightwingers do - same method, different content. But both sides are constantly whining about being the victim in all of this. It´s hilariously immature.
@@luciustitius sarcasm, irony, and exaggeration can lead to miscommunication; and, sarcasm, provocation, and aggression can cause people to stop listening or discussing. I think it would be very dependent on the specific situation and exactly how it is delivered.
@@luciustitius Sorry, but speech intended to stoke anger and hatred is not the same as speech intended to educate and share. Popper's Tolerance Paradox has something to teach you. Go look it up.
I remember doing a paper about this exact thing in an English class at city college. The question was what do you think freedom of speech in America means or something like that and I did the paper about how everyone can say what they want, but it doesn't mean there's no consequence and my teacher gave me a B- because he said the Constitution would disagree with me. It was the weirdest thing ever! Because there's no denying that there's no consequences in life for saying things that a lot of people are not going to agree with or that you could be jailed over
If you haven't seen Tig in Funny or Die's "Under a Rock with Tig Notaro", do so immediately!!! I can't describe the joy of seeing "famous" people realize... eh, maybe they're not all that important.
Holy crap, thank you! I hadn't heard of the show and just watched the James Van der Beek episode and I'm dying. Thank you so much for the recommendation!
that’s who I was gonna guess. for a fraction of a second at the end of the clip the censor flicks off and if you time it right you can see who it is. still took me a minute to figure it out 😂
I've just discovered Tig...I mean I've recognized her in movies ect but This Woman, her beautiful marriage, and her humanity she so graciously shares with us with her Oscar Wilde wit! ❤ A southern treasure
Tig translation: Just because you have the right to do something doesn't mean it's always a good idea to exercise that right. WISDOM prevails over all.
not exactly earth-shattering - why we don't scream FIRE in a movie theater when there is not a fire. People could be injured, killed. Ex: Japan some weeks ago.
@@rsh650 I wrote manor on purpose. It was not a spelling error. :p A manor is a mansion or stately home. A manner is a characteristic way of doing something.
I'm not sure where to comment so that Tig knows that I love her, that she's hilarious and a sarcastic national treasure. So I'm just gonna leave this here. Vote Tig 2024 we can beat cancer and shitty people 🤘
Freedom of speech is the known title of the first ammendment to the constitution. It is a law, irrevocable in this nation. What that means is that what you say cannot get you arrested, as that is what a law describes. You do not have to fear arrest for the words you say. It DOES NOT, however free you from the consequences of the words you say. If you don't believe me ask Kanye. He is under no threat of arrest for his words, but the consequences of those words he will forever hold the responsibility for.
Well, that depends, of course. Threats aren't protected. Same with some other things--like shouting "FIRE!" in a crowded theater in order to cause a panic, or whatever. --But yeah, I definitely agree with you. Freedom of speech does not mean freedom from the consequences of your speech. That's a very good point
Doesn't it also mainly protect you from the government? Like you can stand with a sign saying f*** and the name of a politician on it without consequences, at least not in the form of jail.
So Tig Notaro is partnering with Will Ferrell. I love how y'all tried to keep Tig's teammate a secret and even blurred faces, but then Stephen held up a magazine clearly saying Tig is on a team with Will.
Tig is always awesome!!! Also, Stephen, you accidentally spilled the beans on her pickleball partner. 😮 Spoiler alert: It’s (sort of) revealed if you pause when he shows Tig’s pic from the magazine.
We need to protect Tig Notaro at any cost because she's so amazing. Love you, Tig!

always trolling for sympathy... pathetic. 😉

That’s only up until 2015 or so. She’s had so much happen since then that she’s been pretty vague about.
Tig remains one of my favourite comedians - She's just so funny, and brutally honest to the point of absurdity, which just loops back around to hilarity. That is a pretty sick cane too.
Will.
Tig is on a short list of people who can crack Stephen up so much he's crying!
I had to rewind just to watch him crack up again 😂
It’s literally his job to laugh when comedians come on his show
Tig is so honest and amazing!
I love, love, LOVE Tig Notaro. Intelligence, compassion and humour in one beautiful bundle.
that whole bit between them was brilliant and extremely tight; they didn't miss a beat! Well done. Love them together.
I just die when Stephen looses it and Tig is one of few who can do that regularly ! I just love her 💜😂
Tig was hysterical "What kind of low rent thing did I sign up for?" Love her
I cant believe how long she rode that one out, even though it was brutal :D
It was hilarious because I think pretty much everyone could identify with it. We've all been there at some point.
Ya know, I have only seen Tig on Colberts show and a handful of other things here and there. Every time she’s on again, I’m like “geez, I really need to watch more of her stuff” she is awesome
She went a few times to Conan and smashed it!
@@tiagoramos4111 +1 to all of her conan appearances too!! yes!!
Check her out on Conan's podcast! (Conan O'Brien needs a friend)
Her show where she hosts a guest celeb she doesnt know is magical
I love Tig! I came across her stand-up one night as I was scrolling endlessly for something to watch. I started it, thinking I’d just use for background noise to fall asleep to. Oh boy, was I wrong.

Hope your leg heals well & quickly, Tig.
Tig is such a genuine and funny person.
Tig is so absurdly hilarious in her stand-up I just can’t deal 🤣 she’s great!
Agree! She cracks me up every single time. Love her!
Tig and Steve Carell can make Stephen go into his histerical laughter. She is too funny!!!!

Love Tig & the characters she plays. Especially the Star Trek character. So funny.
If you haven't seen Tig in Funny or Die's "Under a Rock with Tig Notaro", do so immediately!!! I can't describe the joy of seeing "famous" people realize... eh, maybe they're not all that important.
I’ll watch that soon. Thanks for the recommendation
Under a Rock is hilarious.
It’s a great show, but she knows who they are. Sorry to burst your self righteous bubble.
Holy crap, thank you! I hadn't heard of the show and just watched the James Van der Beek episode and I'm dying. Thank you so much for the recommendation!
It would be so great if they would produce more episodes of "Under A Rock", Tig is hilarious
*Will Ferrell!!!* The height, the body motion, the masking the famous voice -- oh, and the magazine's page mentions "Will." 😱
Will Ferrell is also mentioned on IMDB.
Now I absolutely have to watch this. I was going to watch it anyway because I adore Tig, but this combo is just too much to miss.
that’s who I was gonna guess. for a fraction of a second at the end of the clip the censor flicks off and if you time it right you can see who it is. still took me a minute to figure it out 😂
I thought Vincent Vaughan
Also there's a single frame at 5:17 where you can see his face, lol.
I can't say in words how much I absolutely adore Tig Notaro!
I love how they each kissed their own hand at the end! 🤣
Oh my gosh you’re right, on first glance I thought they kissed each other’s hands. I totally missed that - makes it even better 😂😂😂
Thank you 😊 Tig is a treasure
Her Netflix documentary is fantastic. Highly recommend! I learned so much about her as a person. Really enjoyed it.
Absolutely love her. The whole freedom of speech thing was on point. There’s a difference between “freedom of speech,” and using it to harm others.
I've just discovered Tig...I mean I've recognized her in movies ect but This Woman, her beautiful marriage, and her humanity she so graciously shares with us with her Oscar Wilde wit! ❤ A southern treasure
I friggin love you, Tig. You and your gator cane. 🐊
Tig Notaro is hilarious. I think I've been living under a rock since this is first time I've met her. Off to find more of her videos.
May I suggest Knock Knock It's Tig Notaro. That one is really great.
Her podcast Tig and Cheryl is super funny. They watch documentaries.
Loved Pickled and Tig, and the whole gang who put together a fun and worthwhile charity event!
That dead pan delivery always gets me. Love you, Tig
I love how much trouble they went to to hide the identity of her partner, only for Stephen to display his name at the end!
Tig translation: Just because you have the right to do something doesn't mean it's always a good idea to exercise that right. WISDOM prevails over all.
Tig should be a guest on late night every night. Absolutely a gem of an actor/comedian!
She always has a "I don't give a shit attitude" lmao. They playing that uplifting music and she is like "Whatever I am crippled I am taking my time."
I love Tig Notaro. Funny, genuine, dry wit... AND she is not only on Star Trek, but was also the best part of Army Of The Dead. Icon.
Tim ?
@@melanies.6030 oh, no! One of my worst typos. Fixed now! Thank for pointing that out.
Tig & Stephen. Always good.

@@blaizel3748 Just cuz you spam that on every comment, it doesn't mean you can start quoting yourself as if it mattered.
Her “Stephen.” Still gets me. And his laugh. This is comedy gold without the effort.
I just love her as a comic and as a human being.
I am a 68 year old english straight,and I worship Tig Notaro!!
Yes Tig!!!! Well said and thank you! Outstanding
Tig is just wonderful.
I don't think I have ever seen a guest make Stephen laugh that hard
Brilliant point, Tig! I wish that point would get across to some of the "not so smart"😉
Love me some Tig Notaro. She's brilliant!
I love Tig, always so much fun.
Tig can leave you crying hysterically of laughter and you will NEVER SEE IT COMING
Tig is another master-class of Comedy. First time I've ever seen her break after like 20 years.
I love Tig Notaro. She's my 24th favorite person on earth, but excluding family, she's number 3.
She's legitimately one of my very favorite people.
Please give us another season of Under a Rock with Tig Notaro.
😂 Love how laid back Tig is. How the heck did you crack your femur!? 😱
That giggle is the best thing I've seen today. I love Stephen so much.
I love Tig Notaro so much
I love this women. Incredibly underrated comedian.
@@TheTrouserPuppetsOfficial =🦟
The special guest is Will Ferrel. Scroll to 5:17 and go frame by frame and the blur cuts out right before the camera changes angle.
Thanks, I saw it and tried to freeze that frame, but my laptop didn't allow it :-)
Tig has quickly become one of my favorite people. Sorry Stephen.
I knew it was Will Ferrell! That quote said "Will," confirming my suspicions!!!
She's the best!
5:17 The person Tig is playing with is Will Ferrell. They took the blur away about a half second too early.
She is an American Gem
I love her presence her in movies
I love Tig. She’s awesome.
Tig is so freaking funny. Tears!!! Get well!!
8:27 "Tig is on a team with Will Listen. Will has the wingspan."
Love Tig! Never not funny and delightful.
Tig is everything!!!!❤❤❤❤
"No, I don't need money because I take EVERYTHING I AM OFFERED!"
Is that Will Ferrell as her mystery partner? Whoever it is, he’s so lucky to be teamed up with Tig! 😍
💗Tig Notaro💗 Representing! So cool to see her on Star Trek Discovery!!! 🐊🐊
I'm not sure where to comment so that Tig knows that I love her, that she's hilarious and a sarcastic national treasure. So I'm just gonna leave this here. Vote Tig 2024 we can beat cancer and shitty people 🤘

@@NuiYabuko yeah its supposed to mainly protect open discussion and prevent tyranny and fascism. i think.
Nobody can shout fire in a crowded building unless there’s actually a fire. There’s a law on that one. Freedom of speech has limits.
You can't yell fire if there isn't a fire yes words can get you in trouble
Will Farell... he didn't cover the writing on the magazine.
Tig is always funny.
I love when Colbert cracks up like that.
Tig Notaro is a real hero of mine. What an amazing person and so funny.
Tig probably didn't know who Jared Leto is.
"Tig is on a team with Will. Will has the wingspan." Someone comedic, to try making out with Tig. And kinda pasty. Will Ferrell.
Tig is one of only a few people that can come on this show and render our host a laughing mess.
So Tig Notaro is partnering with Will Ferrell. I love how y'all tried to keep Tig's teammate a secret and even blurred faces, but then Stephen held up a magazine clearly saying Tig is on a team with Will.
And at 5:17, a blink and you missed it blurring error reveals the guest
@@nickribet9035 Haha! Nice catch.
I have no joke here; I just like to say "alligator cane."
i love this woman, she's my kind of funny yet on the surface we don't "match"
I love Tig so much. ❤🌈🐊Please get well soon, Tig. 🙏
Her podcast about documentaries is so funny!
I love that woman. Bring back Under A Rock, PLEASE!
LOVE YOU TIG 💪💗😘🤗
Tig is playing with Will Ferrell. Base on the body and the face when Steven held up the magazine you see his first name.
He is also unblurred at 5:17.
Tig is always awesome!!! Also, Stephen, you accidentally spilled the beans on her pickleball partner. 😮 Spoiler alert: It’s (sort of) revealed if you pause when he shows Tig’s pic from the magazine.
Im ready to bet who he is. Thanx Google for those bracelets XD
Why would you do that? Why not play the game?
Freedom of speech is not freedom from consequences.
At 5:17, a blink and you missed it blurring error reveals the guest...
Her opening words so chilling in light of the Club Q tragedy.
Love her, love her, love her.
Nothing can break Tig!
Except Cheryl Hines in a leg wrestling competition.
@@marscoriad213 is that how she broke her leg?
How did he not ask her about how she fractured her femur and how she was even walking around, let alone playing Pickleball?!!
I love Tig.
Thanks for Dakota Johnson's recommendation for this hilarious person 🙌
Oh my god I love Tig🥰🥰🥰 she is soooo specially Talented and freaking funny😂😂😂 please always stay yourself Tig 🥳🥳🥳🙏🙏🙏🙏
God, I just love her.
Ok. I watched this tournament, and Tig Notaro being all in on the competition, but clearly having no idea what the rules were, was hilarious.
Blurred his face but then in the magazine it says "Tig on a team with Will" .... I am thinking Ferrell. :P
You showed his name when you did the closeup on the picture. OOPS. 😂😂
Omg Tig is absolutely hilarious! I can't deal!!!! Hahahahha
Love that the official colours of Pickle are the Aussie Green & Gold - represent lol
