Fern has great material. She doesn't do incidentals, it's mostly story-telling comedy. That is much more difficult and requires a lot of pacing and structure to keep the audience reeled in. But it's fantastically done!! Big fan.
This is such an accurate description of psych ward “relationships,” I never had a girlfriend in the psych ward but I saw it play out and it was always MESSY
I've never experienced seeing a comedienne who has performed in the manner Fern does here. I love everything about her. My first real kiss and a bit of a feel was with a fellow patient in a psychiatric ward when I was maybe 15 years old. We managed to lock lips a few times before a nurse caught us, which initiated a state of constant monitoring of each of our whereabouts from then on until she was released. I still remember her name 50 years later. I also learned how to play pool there at a very high level.
I had a teacher in high school that if u got her to talk about her cat at the beginning of class you learned nothing that day she loved talking about her cat
I had a divorced math teacher who was a lovable teddy bear and very easily distracted. we dodged many pop quizzes by asking about his son. He would just gush for an hour. He also hosted movie nights for our class during the summer in his backyard and would grill for us.
Had a shrink ask me once what I'd ask my most important (in terms of personal development) ex if I'd run in to her on the street. Apparently the wrong answer is, "Did they let you keep the grippy socks from the ward?"
Enormous thanks to the uploaders for including complete captions. I can parse Scottish better than the average American but I still needed them from time to time. Check out Brady's left hand at 9:55 , covered in what I presume is cues.
I grew up in Quebec, we called people spoons. I think that was just my friend group though because some broad we knew wasn't "the sharpest tool in the shed" so she became the spoon.
Thanks for bringing up memories of my second boyfriend I met in the mental ward. Great guy just doesn't seem messed up as her but we helped each other during it
@rahileshanbi5551 we dated for several months after our discharge but things just didn't work out it was mutual break up. Mostly due to our work schedule at the time conflicting each other's so we didn't spend enough time with each other
Fern is cuter-than-two-bugs-humpin’. She funny, good at story-telling comedy, and has one of the most adorable voices ever too. Keep up the great work, Bonnie Lass
There are so very many people who have zero clue how completely relatable this tale is for people who've seen time in adolescent psychiatric commitments.
"Imagine that's how your mom finds out about all the!" Don't have to. I was outted on nationally syndicated radio by my ex and that's how like 3/4 of my social circle found out.
@ShipWindow In some places it can be a very dangerous thing for people to know you're LGBTQ+ but also, it's never okay for someone else to decide to out you. It's an individual person's choice whether or not to disclose their sexuality, especially if they aren't completely in a place that they're comfortable divulging that information to people. The ex clearly decided to try and blow up OPs life. I can only hope that they were pleasantly surprised by how accepting people were instead of the all to common opposite response.
Around 13:00 when the boys said she was a Fing Spoon and said said there was no way tto really interpretate it: I will. lol "Youre a fing Spoon" = "Youre very fing Naive or Foolish"
Wonderful set first saw you on Taskmaster, as a teen boy went to a hospital also, they didn't belive I was actually sick with a disease, till they got tests back but did learn to play an amazing game of Foozeball or table soccer, body is still crap 30 years later, guess I didn't just want to miss a few days of school lol
as someone that has been in a mental hospital multiple times i can safely say, some of the craziest love stories come out of there i had my first kiss with someone in the bathroom in one
Hey Fern, is that you in that fragrance commercial? I think it is Dolce Gucci or something like that? You're really funny. Thanks for the good time. Merry Christmas!🎉🎉🎉🎉 M
She always writes her notes on her hand it, and it has made her my favorite comedian. Well, and she's hilarious. But mostly the handwritten notes, pun intended.
Way back in the day, because of my para schizophrenia I was committed in a mental institution, and had met my first girlfriend in that place and actually lost my virginity in her room, and because we were so young, we thought we would be in trouble if we were caught, but in reality we didn’t go against any rules. God, how I was in love her, but we were both too sick to maintain any relationship
Fern has great material. She doesn't do incidentals, it's mostly story-telling comedy. That is much more difficult and requires a lot of pacing and structure to keep the audience reeled in. But it's fantastically done!! Big fan.
I didn't know her, so the algorithm did me a big favor... she's hilarious!!!
@@Vintage_geek saw her on another channel and liked her video. Definitely following her full time now!
Her book is brilliant, equally hilarious, moving, and illuminating.
Yah same. Saw her do a skit the other day and was instantly hooked
Also she has a sultry voice and is easy on the eyes.
as she was saying "if this does go to america, there's no way of translating that" i was actively googling 'define spoon derogatory'
It's from the phrase 'so sharp they cut themselves wirh a spoon'. Meaning they're blunt/dull/stupid 😅
Yer a spoon 🥄
this is the funniest comment I've ever read, thank you 😂🥲
@@algrant5293 Makes me think of Alan Rickman's bit from Robin Hood Prince of Thieves about cutting a heart out with a spoon.
I thought of "dumb as a box of rocks", "dumb as a bag of hammers", and maybe now I'll start using "dumb as the dishware".
@@gregbasore2108and why with a spoon? Because it hurts more.....
This is such an accurate description of psych ward “relationships,” I never had a girlfriend in the psych ward but I saw it play out and it was always MESSY
I feel like messy is about the only way it could play out.
All ward relationships end up messy
I met my ex fiance in there sooo yeah.
@@TexMeta it is true...
Looking back on it now, i kinda understand why they wouldn't let us hook up...
"I'm vegetarian which is the bisexual of diets" 😂 It's funny 'cos it's true.
Veg means you aren't a cannibal
@@IIIV3SEENTHEFACEOFGOD oh look one of these retards
@@IIIV3SEENTHEFACEOFGODNot eating humans means you're not a cannibal.
I thought that would be an omnivore, no?

Was her name Mrs. Slocombe? ;)

Comedic storytelling is a class all its own. She's hilarious!
“Why is this adult more fun than all the other adults?” 😂
"It's just the polite thing to do." 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
“People in power just lie to you” 🤣💀
So prescient
"You're a f***ing spoon," is a beautiful insult I shall treasure as a dirty American.
You can also call people spanners and no one will understand
I promise you I heard this joke so long ago and I looked this video up just to enjoy that moment again cause *chef kiss* it was the best thing ever 🤣
The badger episode was the start of her villain arc
Fern is so funny. She is a great storyteller
The mental hospital through the teacher bit had me absolutely crying with laughter. 😭🤣
Even at the points it's not laugh out loud funny, it's still fun and captivating.
The accent, her face, the retro Casio wristwatch...I'm in love.
Had a shrink ask me once what I'd ask my most important (in terms of personal development) ex if I'd run in to her on the street. Apparently the wrong answer is, "Did they let you keep the grippy socks from the ward?"
😂😂😂
My goal is to have a full rainbow worth of grippy socks. Just need red and green and I'll have it complete.
"The bisexuality of diets." OMFG

Caught my eye too. First thought was how she has super hairy palm for some reason though 😂
Wot
She's speaking English lad
@@arkainonreaper There is a reason why, when "Trainspotters" played in the USA, it had subtitles.
@@milascave2 what do you mean? Americans can't read. Have you seen the state of our schools?
I'm a non native English speaker and have no problems understanding this. Crazy how bad Americans are at their own language 😂
Fern is the best I've seen in so many years. And I been in the game for about 20 years. I love her accent so much
Lmao bruh the phone call, and the badger. She's hilarious
Currently on a charter bus and I’m crying trying to hold in my laughter
You are exceptional! Fern thank you, u made me blush!
I love that word “slag”.
*OMG THE BADGER STORY* I have memories like that in my childhood LOL
I was kind of glad no one in the audience didn't say, "Then I guess it's a bad time to bring up Santa Clause?"
How am I just now hearing about her? Good stuff, Fern 😂
Please can we get Fern onto Would I Lie To You?
How can anybody hate ths lady? Or her comedy, more to the point. It's objectively hysterical.
From a thruple to "can we have a cat?" Awesome!
I grew up in Quebec, we called people spoons. I think that was just my friend group though because some broad we knew wasn't "the sharpest tool in the shed" so she became the spoon.
Hush, Quebec is garbage and so are you
“Not the sharpest knife in the drawer”! hence ‘Spoon’
Or:
“Not The Sharpest Tool in The Shed” hence ‘Spade’
She makes me laugh continuously 😂
Fern: “… unbelievably tall lady…”
Chicken Run Farmer: “My favorite!”
What a great storyteller!
I LOVE this woman.... excellent brain, and gorgeous too ! 🙂
Thanks for bringing up memories of my second boyfriend I met in the mental ward. Great guy just doesn't seem messed up as her but we helped each other during it
Why didn't the relationship continue?
@rahileshanbi5551 we dated for several months after our discharge but things just didn't work out it was mutual break up. Mostly due to our work schedule at the time conflicting each other's so we didn't spend enough time with each other
Love her, really funny set.

The voice and the accent... 🤩
Pretty smooth she's honing her skills
Oh fern what a wonderful lady puts a smile on my face and all she did was tell stories and jokes
Fern is funny. I'm looking forward to more from her
There are so very many people who have zero clue how completely relatable this tale is for people who've seen time in adolescent psychiatric commitments.
I absolutely Love Fern.
Hearing a scot imitate a scottish accent is disconcerting. Love her and her humor.
One day I'd love to see her stand up live
"Imagine that's how your mom finds out about all the!"
Don't have to. I was outted on nationally syndicated radio by my ex and that's how like 3/4 of my social circle found out.
Woa! Probably washed out the small-minded, hm? What a mean thing to do, though.
😬

3/4 of your family listens to the same radio station? At the same time? Is it 1948?
This was a goddamn rollercoaster.
13:05 HAAAAAA I just turned the subtitles for that one and was even more confused than before 😅 fair play to you 😂
I’ve not heard her before. This is really different and, most importantly, funny.
Around 13:00 when the boys said she was a Fing Spoon and said said there was no way tto really interpretate it: I will. lol
"Youre a fing Spoon" = "Youre very fing Naive or Foolish"
It's just the polite thing to do 😂😂😂. But munching a box is quality entertainment.
1:12 way to be dousesd with the cold water of truth 😂
Loving Fern brady, being Neurodivergent myself, she's inspring
Neurodivergent! What a good word!
Fern I absolutely love your shows, I would love to see a live show, are you on tour?
Amazing observational and real in touch heart felt as well as comedy
Wonderful set first saw you on Taskmaster, as a teen boy went to a hospital also, they didn't belive I was actually sick with a disease, till they got tests back but did learn to play an amazing game of Foozeball or table soccer, body is still crap 30 years later, guess I didn't just want to miss a few days of school lol
It is she Fern Brady!
Yes, Fern Brady!
She is The Rightful Queen!

Might you be referring to ME/CFS? That story is one I've heard a number of times among our community.
6:42 Every Rita I know has this voice. What's up with that? 😂
I love her. 😂
as someone that has been in a mental hospital multiple times i can safely say, some of the craziest love stories come out of there
i had my first kiss with someone in the bathroom in one
This girl is hilarious!!
This is great
She's such a fking treasure
This was great :D well done Fern.
Bloody brilliant
She's a Genius.
12:50 oh, the meaning was quite clear
She’s the full comedy package ,
Shes got jokes!🤣
Man, that built up into a crescendo of comedy.
9:33 People with tourrettes start violently crying in fear 😂
(would've been me 😂)
I think I'm in love. 😂
If women aren't funny then this dude is hilarious
Lol, I'm going to have to steal this for response to the inevitable trolls 😅😂
Hey Fern, is that you in that fragrance commercial? I think it is Dolce Gucci or something like that? You're really funny. Thanks for the good time. Merry Christmas!🎉🎉🎉🎉
M
I can’t understand her but I love her voice 😂
God she's so fuckin good.
This was a wonderful Journey. :)
Found Fern through Taskamster (ME FeRn BrAdY me Fern Brady) and loved her ever since!
Jokes aside, I am pretty convinced that Rita loved Fern. She had poetry in her soul.
It’s just the polite thing to do!
She's brilliant, which is even more impressive if the school story is true.
She is brilliant. And the school story... she's just autistic. (It's in her book.)
Shevis epic...everytime 😂😂👸
Fern, get a cat. You'll make the best catlady ever, hands down.
@@abananabag ...They did see that bit. It's what their comment is about. Because it's in this video.
Lmao I was with multiple girls in my times in mental hospitals 😂
me too 😂
This puts a whole new spin on badgering the witness.
Starting to see the appeal of Between 2 Ferns
Hmm. Who is the other Fern
@@SetiSupremeAli Fern
@@SetiSupreme😒
Ха ха! правда! True!
I just love Scottish accents, thee thicca tha betta!
What I can understand is hilarious
She is the Kid Cudi of stand up. Amazing
She always writes her notes on her hand it, and it has made her my favorite comedian. Well, and she's hilarious. But mostly the handwritten notes, pun intended.
No idea what she said, but her accent was hilarious
She gives Scottish Natasha Lyonne vibes 🧡
She is a great sorry teller, I love the accent
Vegetarianism, the bisexuality of diets. 😂
Hahahaah, just the polite thing to do.
dammit she's hilarious!
Very cool and funny Asssspeeeez! 🐍 Ave Slithered in Hen... Big Fan eh you btw! 😅

Craig was dope.
