I mean... "master" is a bit heavy... After the third or fourth joke you realize that either the person in his joke, or that person's baby, will die by the punchline. But, yes, you are right: He is funny.
Chris Levack I went and saw him in February at a local comedy club. His misdirection is getting better and better all the time. I couldn't believe how often he had me totally fooled on where his jokes were going during his routine.
niv tom Nah man! The crowd were in shock! Anthony’s style is nothing before him. His jokes are so intellectually funny and dark. Compare the first awkward laugh he received and the last laughs. He had them eating out of his hands. And we accepted that dark jokes are funny
Adam Smith I think he's right. Jimmy Carr isn't that good. Frankie Boyle on the other hand is far better at this style of humor than both of these guys together. As good as either of them can be, Boyle comes up with that calibre of material on the spot.
noones fucking racist. yeah some jokes are offensive but what the fuck is it. its a joke, there is no hate, fuck all these judgmental imbeciles who try to be comedy police
I didn't get the "cutting grass at a battered women's shelter" joke even though I'm a contractor and once actually did a partial remodel on a battered women's shelter while it was in operation.
Am I the only one who thinks he breaks the fourth wall just a little much? Like, he spends precious joke time talking about how "good" or "out there" he and his jokes are.
That's part of his act. Over confident and arrogant, he is basically saying if you don't like his jokes then you're the problem not him, but it's all part of his act.
On the contrary (and you've just revealed that you don't have kids), the feeling you get once they're in your arms is unlike anything that can be described in any language. To love something that much, who wasn't there ten minutes ago, is wondrous and frightening in equal measure. From that moment, you willingly commit to putting that person before yourself in every decision you make in your life from then on. Every piece of good you will do in the world, you will do because of the love you have for your child. Every sad feeling is made less sad, and every great feeling is accentuated and amplified because you know that this person exists on this planet, and that they need you and you need them. It is a love that crosses every known boundary. It is unconditional. It is beautiful. It is everything. Such a loss would be indescribable.
Thom Hardcastle Sounds like you lost a child, and for that im sorry. I lost many family members to cancer(most recently my mother a few months ago) but i can still find a well-written cancer joke hilarious. Comedy has no bounds and the envelope constantly needs to be pushed. For comedians, being able to write and deliver controversial jokes is what drives their careers forward. Look at matt stone and trey parker for example. In short, learn to seperate reality from jokes. A joke is exactly that: fiction. Stop taking it so seriously.
Dude just did a Shakespeare joke then performed it in Iambic Pentameter; then ended it with “you should probably read more”.. and it was too gd brilliant to not mention.
pop per Not under appreciated. He was something different. We were shock. His dark humour is something completely new to the world. He’s intellectually clever and funny
Idk who that nobody zero was in the beginning of the video but anthony jeselnik is an ABSOLUTE FUCKING KILLER and I wish he was more popular now. He should have an HBO show, or maybe Showtime, something with no restrictions like he had on comedy central
Interesting how his style evolved. Here his material seems forced and rehearsed, compared to now he casually walks around the stage like it's a normal conversation with the audience.
Yup! Short and sweet - WELL thought out smart jokes - and nice and twisted. Hasn't been a guy like this around for ages. (though I'm still a huge Doug Stanhope fan - he never gets even slightly dull or predictable either)
Yes I've been thinking it. Not on this recording as much, possibly more on recent podcasts etc. both from Pittsburgh. Jeselnik has mentioned it on some of his podcasts. He says most of his family speak like that!
I remember watching this when it aired and never having heard of him, I remember thinking there was something way different about this one. Not the typical run of the mill club standup comic.
The reason they don't get "cancelled" is because they're not pieces of shit in real life, on stage these are characters and nothing else. Burr isn't an eccentric asshold 24/7, that's part of him but when he's performing it comes across as all of him.
@@steved8714 no one seems to care what kind of person you are off stage. Look at Kevin Hart and the heat he received for past comments. Lots of good people have been cancelled for stuff they’ve said
@@clarencegboddicker8144 I was so excited to listen to him and he’s basically just another super woke Hollywood type who’s “edgy” as long as it’s not politically incorrect which kind of defeats the purpose.
All comedians repeat their jokes, it's like singers with their songs, the thing is that nowadays with TH-cam and such, we all see their acts all the time, whereas before you'd need to either go see their act or catch it on HBO
He is the true master of the unexpected punchline.

Wright, Hedberg.
Jeselnik's timing is quite his, but both Wright and Hedberg are huge influences
King of crude.
I could listen to him all day he is too funny. Completely underrated!
Love it when he flashes that devilish smile. The crowd is too uptight
Does his "devilish smile" turn you on, Tom?
Turns me on that's for damn sure.
Lmao was just thinking that same thing as I read this
Turns me on
niv tom Nah man! The crowd were in shock! Anthony’s style is nothing before him. His jokes are so intellectually funny and dark. Compare the first awkward laugh he received and the last laughs. He had them eating out of his hands. And we accepted that dark jokes are funny
I love how he's not afraid to cross any lines.
Especially not the finish line.
@@steved8714 I got that reference 😆
This guy is the best stand up comedian of his generation. Everything he says is funny
Alan Lloyd - he’s funny, but the funniest?
So what youre saying is you literally don't know any other stand up comedians of your generation.
im saying he is funnier. so shut the fuck up BITCH....
YES
Best I've seen in a long time.
The DUI joke is a straight up 10! Probably his best joke.
Imagine the shock on my kid's teacher's face when I told her my parenting how-to video was an Anthony Jeselnick show.
dude a genius
Pesado posta mais
‘You making fun of us was the highlight of our day!” … you made it easy. Gu effing faw
he should do a set along with Jimmy Carr
+jameslandlord idiot. I'm guessing you don't like clever humor do you
+jameslandlord says loads about you
Adam Smith I think he's right. Jimmy Carr isn't that good. Frankie Boyle on the other hand is far better at this style of humor than both of these guys together. As good as either of them can be, Boyle comes up with that calibre of material on the spot.
This One Jimmy Carr is also very good, he's just not THAT offensive
Jimmy Who??
Comedic genius!!!!
dude is so funny. His entire purpose in life is to kick everyone's PC attitude.........down the stairs.
HETES that is the most perfect joke ive ever heard. Black lives matter? i think we gave out enough animal rights ;)
noones fucking racist. yeah some jokes are offensive but what the fuck is it. its a joke, there is no hate, fuck all these judgmental imbeciles who try to be comedy police
speak it!
T hank you!
Beth Pentz .
GOLD !!
He's the Lenny Bruce of the 21st century!
MUIIITO BOM
He says that herpes joke then hes like "Lenny knows what Im talkin about" lol
....... Lenny? *sigh* you upset basically every metal head with that.
That miscarriage joke was awesome
He's like an evil Stehpen Wright.
he has good one liners... he is very good
genius
Anthony is hot Ana funny as fuck!!!🤣🤣
Lemmy!
I didn't get the "cutting grass at a battered women's shelter" joke even though I'm a contractor and once actually did a partial remodel on a battered women's shelter while it was in operation.
... mowing the lawn... i.e. eating pussy... trimming their pubes. holy nanners.
A piada da herpes, deveria ser trocada por AIDS, então ficaria perfeita.
Smooth butcher
Thoughts and Prayers is A.J.s best set ever! This is not. Comedians and bands have 1 for sure thing in common, the first release is their best.
Funniest newer comedian working today
which pixel is anthony?
His stand up show is way better than this. Stand up clip 1,2,3 are hilarious.
Joke or no? Grinning Hard cuz people are dumb!!
You're dumb.
Legendas horríveis, tudo errado.
Am I the only one who thinks he breaks the fourth wall just a little much?
Like, he spends precious joke time talking about how "good" or "out there" he and his jokes are.
+PetuniaWinehousen That has nothing to do with breaking the fourth wall. You're either too stupid or misinformed.
That's part of his act. Over confident and arrogant, he is basically saying if you don't like his jokes then you're the problem not him, but it's all part of his act.
I'm all for this whole anti-PC thing, but losing a baby is the worst thing that can ever happen to a person, so I don't really appreciate this set.
Thom Hardcastle losing a baby isn't that bad. I mean you barely know the fucker

who the bard ? he the bard
iambic pentameter is my bitch :P
It took me a minute to get the Romeo and Juliet reference. I don’t notice any iambic pentameter tho??
From the way you noted that, I feel like you're actually Anthony.
This dudes punch lines are vicious.
i love this dude's comedy. Lighten up if you dont
Darken,
Darken up .
Unappreciated and under-appreciated comic genius.
pop per Not under appreciated. He was something different. We were shock. His dark humour is something completely new to the world. He’s intellectually clever and funny
@@jeromeierome4523 It's not new, dark humor has existed for a lot longer than him, he just changed the delivery and streamlined it.
Nothing special here, foh
@@clarencegboddicker8144 I wouldn't say that
Dark HUMOR IS NOTHING NEW!!
Anthony is so good at keeping his pulse on the audience. He knows what will work and what won't
Watching this guy's shows while high is as good as life gets 😂
You should stop doing heroin.
That jesus or buddha joke is severely underated..
Miscarriage joke, applause break. End on an accidentally(?) killing baby joke.
Fuckin genius!
I woulda told it twice!!!

If anyone didnt like that latino joke we could not would not ever be friends
Antonio Ramirez LOL! I didn't need to take much time.
Am I missing something or was the joke simply not as dark?
It really wasn't a great joke. My 12 siblings agree
@@charlesverg2184 it wasn't dark, some people might get offended though because of "stereotype" and "racist" and blah blah blah.
I remember watching this with my Grandpa back in 2012, and had no idea I was discovering a legend.
i only just discovered this guy about 2 weeks ago, hes a fucking genius
I first saw him years ago.
I first saw him fairly recently. Not like last week, but not too long ago, but like years, but not a lot of years. A good while ago, basically.
Yup! Short and sweet - WELL thought out smart jokes - and nice and twisted. Hasn't been a guy like this around for ages. (though I'm still a huge Doug Stanhope fan - he never gets even slightly dull or predictable either)
Mitch Hedberg mastered this style before he died
His Buddha joke sounded a lot like Mitch Hedberg.
Am I the only person who thought he sounded like Christopher Walken?
Maybe a tiny tiny bit
Kinbela Jean He does. Not exactly like him, but there are similarities.
His accent is totally different, but his rhythm and inflection are surprisingly similar.
They are both from Pittsburgh
Yes I've been thinking it. Not on this recording as much, possibly more on recent podcasts etc. both from Pittsburgh. Jeselnik has mentioned it on some of his podcasts. He says most of his family speak like that!
Best comedian of all time, so far anyways.
Lemmy?!
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lemmy
I know who Lemmy is lol I was just surprised to see him there
I miss him. This was taped 4 years before he died.
I love his smile
I remember watching this when it aired and never having heard of him, I remember thinking there was something way different about this one. Not the typical run of the mill club standup comic.
Procurando um comentário em português? Ou procurando o bebê na banheira?
He battles his good looks well. He is talent.
Saw you in denver, you rule sir.
I hope he stays impervious to cancellation like Bill Burr has. We need fearless comedians like this
The reason they don't get "cancelled" is because they're not pieces of shit in real life, on stage these are characters and nothing else. Burr isn't an eccentric asshold 24/7, that's part of him but when he's performing it comes across as all of him.
@@steved8714 no one seems to care what kind of person you are off stage. Look at Kevin Hart and the heat he received for past comments. Lots of good people have been cancelled for stuff they’ve said
Burr became a conformist coward after he got married
He kind of rushed in this. His timing is better on his CDs
Anthony needs a daily podcast or something similar. He’s amazing
David Thorn he does
He has 1 and it is unremarkable
@@clarencegboddicker8144 I was so excited to listen to him and he’s basically just another super woke Hollywood type who’s “edgy” as long as it’s not politically incorrect which kind of defeats the purpose.
Wow fucking lemmy was there
this guy is deep and funny as tuck
Who's tuck?
@@BUSTRCHERRI tuck and duck are the new fuck
@@BUSTRCHERRI that’s the punchline

King Of Dark Humour
“Who do you think was smarter, Jesus or Buddha? I mean just in the terms of NOT GETTING YOURSELF CRUCIFIED”
That opener is tremendous it’s so horrible and shocking completely hilarious too😂
Seeing him in June! Can't wait!!
How was it?
Anthony Anthony Anthony Anthony Anthony Anthony Anthony
Did bigfoot film this.
He has improved aot
mastery at misdirections
Yes, Lemmy does know what you're talking about ha ha ha.
The fuck? Lemmy was the biggest shocker.
This guy is good. Hope he gets the recognition he deserves one day.
😂
@302 Onewheel I mean really. If this guy doesn't get a Netflix special, with all the crap on there now. A boycott would be in order.
Dude HE’s already has his specials! Y’all just talk, no research at all
Hands down funniest comedian out there.
Easily.
am I the only one who hears Christopher Walken?
Yes.
maddymud the love child of walken & John malkovich.
my hero
legendas mas stand up do Anthony Jeselnik ja vi alguns ele é foda
"Lemmy knows what I'm talking about."
Did anyone notice how much he had to raise the mic stand? Lol
Genius
Nvm that last joke was suppose to be edgy, and then he would acknowledge it and then finish it, with the instance with the lady and her 2 babies
tinha que ter sido vc mesmo kenny
recycled jokes...
but still funny tho.
All comedians repeat their jokes, it's like singers with their songs, the thing is that nowadays with TH-cam and such, we all see their acts all the time, whereas before you'd need to either go see their act or catch it on HBO
Fucking Lemmy 😂
Great video, love dark humor. lol .
he's not the best, but he's pushing where comedy can go, and that's why i love this guy
No, he's the best right now. Not close.
Oh shit is that lemmy from motorhead
that's funny because just about everyone has Herpes.. I assume?
Wild Bill 69 umm no...
