"When you're clumsy, love is the one thing you want to fall into." That is perhaps the most powerful quote I've gotten this year. Thank you, Diane, this was very beautiful.
I go back and watch these shows every few months while I write for work, and they never fail to bring a smile to my face. It's been a couple of years, and I still consider "When you're clumsy, love is the one thing you want to fall into" As hands down one of the most memorable quotes I've encountered in my life. Thank you for making these shows! ❤️
I just discovered your specials in the last 24 hours and have watched (I think) six of them already. Your story telling is just tremendous. It feels like I’m not watching a recording of you in a club some time ago, but am sitting at my kitchen table with a dear friend who can make me laugh like I haven’t in a long, long time. This video was hysterical, deeply touching, and just insanely entertaining. I hope that you do see this comment someday, Diane, and that you are safe and well. Thank you for giving me the gift of this last day. I will always remember how your words lifted my spirits when they greatly needed it.
Dear Bob, thank you for your lovely comment! The kitchen table is the BEST place. It's the place where all heartfelt memories are made to be honest. I'm so so happy you could get so much from my work. You are most welcome :)
I am a massive comedy fan, i stumbled upon her during a gym workout and couldn’t stop smiling. Netflix should promote her for one and second she deserved a bigger audience. Good luck x
"When you're a clumsy person, love is the only thing you *want* to fall into" This is the 4th special I've picked at random (In very rapid succession I might add) and it warmed my heart when you first name dropped Kevin in this show. Because I know you get married. I know you buy a house. I know you love eachother. It's just so bloody amazing. So glad I found your shows. Never stop.
YAAAAY!!! What a bizarre experience for you, but a great one! You have already seen the future... how funny. Now this is interesting... in terms of structure. I'm answering your comments in reverse.
I just randomly came across this, well what I do in my own home etc, and I spent the whole time with a smirky smile plastered on my face. Absolutely brilliant, insightful & devilishly smart. How have I not seen this lady before?! I recommend to anybody who enjoys their stand up with sharp twists.
Hi Diane! I think I’ve watched / listened to 5 or so of your specials so far. Very lucky that TH-cam seems to have them all. You are hands down my favorite comedienne. I appreciate how vulnerable your comedy is. It doesn’t come off as an attempt to be witty or crass. Your style has the feel of stories told at the pub. Sort of “Can you believe this happened?...” You deserve to be making a living thru your comedy (I hope) and like others here have said, by now it is long overdue for you to be given a larger platform. Why on Earth not? Your comedy is just brilliant! Bravo! Please never stop.
Dear Ananda, thank you so much for your comment! I love watching comedy on TH-cam and before I even started standup I found some of my favourite comedians on here. I initially put up my shows as a way of contributing/giving back. Now I just love having a channel where I can put up my material, it's very liberating in a world where the television industry decides whether you can appear on it or not. I do making a living through being a comedian, well up until they closed the pubs. Now it's down to TH-cam for a bit, so the hope is that more people like your dear self find me. Thank you again, I really enjoyed reading your comment, it brightened my day! All the best, Di
I can honestly say that Diane is the best female comedian i have ever seen. I have seen many female comedians, but Diane is the best. Not only is she realy funny, she also tels stories in a way that you could just listen all day. Thank you Diane for posting your stand-ups on yt.
Dear Di.... truly touched by your life. I have only recently found you but I LOVE how your brain works please don't ever change. The world need more people that see life "differently". Your new fan

Another wonderful show. I shouldn't expect any less. It's great to hear someone that can point out the idiotic and stupid things that happen all around us, Without being cynical and depressed. That takes a great amount of insight without being mean or insulting. Add to that you make it amazingly funny, That is good, no make that great, comedy. You have class, style, insight and wit that is very rare. I'm very glad I found your comedy. It makes me thank you for your class and beauty every time I see your shows. Thank you again, for sharing your talent and beauty with your fans. I'll always be in your debt for the laughs and tears you bring me. With Love and admiration from the Southwest: DeMontana
Thank you ever so much DeMontana. I like feeling happy, and I want other people to feel happy. Happy people tend to be kinder, more open and free. I am from the Southwest, but of England! We have many fields and lovely sunrises/sunsets. All the best from the UK, Diane
I grew up with a dad who was a bit more than half-deaf, and also an opera fan - with me on the top floor blasting Motorhead and Slayer, and my dad downstairs blasting Verdi and Wagner, our house was like the clash of the tinnitus.
@@DianeSpencercomedian And judging by the linguistic qualities I get a little feedback by the lovely diva herself (and not some bored PI)! How precious is that! Thank you madame, you are amazing, I will plan a trip to the UK to see your new show in person!
You are truly gifted with taking life's difficult and awkward circumstances, then spinning it into a brilliantly delivered story of comedy, that relates to others in an intimate way. Your transparent & honest personality is endearing, and you held my attention from beginning to end. Yours is the stuff of legends that can be traced as far back as Mark Twain and Will Rogers.
Diane Spencer You are immensely talented and the effortless appearance of your delivery shows how much preparation you've put in. After my wife passed away, I asked God to give me a reason to smile again. He did...thank you!
Simply brilliant. Best comedian that I have ever seen / heard. Well done. Absolutely superb performance. Brilliantly creative. Brilliantly delivered. Soo funny. Thank you. G
Ah I never made it into the panel show scene in a mainstream sense! I was in a smaller panel show for a while and that was an amazing experience. But I am very much working on the comedy circuit right now 😀 thank you for your comment 😁
Dear Mrs Shepherd, it's always a delight. You had tears falling down my cheeks as I choked on my snot. And to think all day I was contemplating, One antihistamine or two? You solved that problem for me! Laughter is good medicine and it won't make you drowsy.
I love the fact you started this comment with "Dear Mrs Shepherd" Hahahahahahah!!!! I am so pleased I could help with the snot. Living in London, with our current air problems, snot can be the bain of my life. Thankfully you have had some respite from yours. Have a lovely day Mr Brobst!
This has to be the most uplifting story about giving a urine sample I have ever heard, and that's NOT what you think of when you think of that. Thank you again for sharing with us, you are a peace (that bruises easily) Sorry Di, had to!
LOL!! No problem. Finding a little ray of sunshine in a urinary tract infection is sometimes all we can do. In fact I probably got the problem from letting too much sunshine up there in the first place...
Madame D, your recursive dialogues are brilliant , a come back to Jesus moment, burning bushes, a bit of taming of the shrew , honestly twice as fast as those that witnessed your double entendre , all the while thinking of diddling mums lollies. Truly a force beyond fortunate and wise
@@DianeSpencercomedian Hope you had a wonderful mother's day, congratulations on preservation of meaty curtains while saving a "C" through section, like sea monkeys just add water next thing pulling heart string. When Eye have to stare at folks like they are goats, I break the tension by mumbling Ferret or box, good thing lady D is easy to remember.
This was ... genius. I'm speechless. I've watched literally hundreds of comedians and what you did here was rare. The jokes are not split-your-sides-funny but the way you constructed them, especially the final quarter of the show, was *fucking brilliant* ! Just punchline after unrelenting punchline woven skillfully into the story, integrating all the earlier stories you told, all with *sincere* , funny acting - it was just marvelous and a joy to watch! Masterfully done, artist! Please keep doing stand-up and never lose your passion for it! The world needs another truly (capital G) Great comedian.
Wow... what a comment to read!! Thank you so much for seeing beyond the surface as well. It's really rewarding to make something intricate with layering, but then DOUBLY rewarding when someone else gets it! Thank you. That show had a very particular structure, and I'm glad it shone through. At the end of one of the others "Noob", I put my email address - write to me and make sure you let me know where you are in the world. When I get enough people I'll get on a plane! All the best, Di
Thank you so much! I originally wrote Power Tool in six sections, the idea was to create a sitcom series from that, but I couldn't get it off the ground.
Miss Diane: Another wonderful, witty, very funny show. I'm not sure why the crowd wasn't louder. I laughed all the way thru. Thank you again for making my night a lot more fun and my life a little better. I will always be in your debt for sharing your heart and Talent. I'm sure the only one luckier than your step children is their father. Even while joking your love shows right through. With love from AZ DeMontana
Dear De Montana, I'm delighted you enjoyed that show! That's the gamble with live comedy, especially when you're in the beginning stages, which I am really - it's all an adventure. Sometimes you have a film crew that records the sound better, sometimes you get an audience that laughs more :) I don't mind, it's all part of the whole. Have a great day! All the best from chirpy (n cold) UK!
Hi Father Badger! My responses might be a little slow, as I am trying to do these twice a week :) I'm so happy you love my work - making a new video right now :)
I've been watching these in random order. I am happy to know you to the extent that you have allowed. My life is better for it. Please continue to be you!
(By "the extent that you have allowed" I mean via these videos.) The only place I've encountered "ginger" stereotypes is in films, television, and videos and chiefly from the British Isles. (That and the "red-headed stepchild" trope that nobody seems to understand.) Two of my nephews are red-headed, one of my uncles is red-headed. Their hair color never comes up in conversation. So I can tell you, the parts of Iowa, South Dakota, and Minnesota I've lived in would not even notice your hair color. In some of the videos I mentioned, gingers have been referred to as a race. Baffling, but also a good reminder of how arbitrary and socially-constructed races really are.
Hi Brian554xx, I have heard about the redheaded stepchild thing. I agree, it's all bizarre, but something that I have discovered through other people. I'm glad you enjoy my comedy :)
Fantastic! It is funny as hell. Not only that, it is also insightful and there is a deeper message here wrapped in humor which makes it stand apart. Outstanding!
Haha! Thank you very much. I think the best kind of comedy (cliché coming!) is the stuff that makes you laugh for 5 seconds, but think for 5 minutes. Is that the phrase? Well, you probably get what I mean :) Thanks for enjoying the show.
Your mom is a treasure! I love the Dorset accent you did for her. This show is heartfelt and hilarious. How you don’t have a comedy special on HBO is a grave miscarriage of justice. I look forward to seeing more of your work. Years from now when you do an autobiography, I hope there’s audible version.
Discovered the brilliance that is Diane Spencer and am currently binge watching through all your videos. Fourth since yesterday and anticipate a withdrawal once I finish the last show 👌👌👌
love this, I'm from Dorset as well, Christchurch, and its so lovely to hear people talking about what its really like to live there and not just how beautiful it is!! :) xx
Michael Breidenbach Thank you Michael, that's immensely flattering! I love Louis CK and Chris Rock - haven't seen enough Chappelle. You ever tried Doug Stanhope?
Diane Spencer Thanks for the tipp. Just watched "Before Turning The Gun On Himself" (2012). It was funny, but also a little bit too aggressive for me. I like more the "Guess what happened to me the other day"-kind of comedy (like you do). Comedians making fun of themselves mixed with observations of their surroundings. Tipp from me: Patton Oswalt!
second show of yours i have seen, loved them both and will be watching everything. love your sense of humor and your story telling ability is captivating,
Im so grateful this appeared on my recommended. Di you are now one of my fav comedians. Your jokes are great and make my day. Plus you have convinced me to give gingers a go. 👍😄
Hahahah!! I'm glad you enjoyed my work THAT much! What I find really funny, is that TH-cam recommends things for me to write, presumably this is for people who want to respond to fans quickly... response suggestions for you included "Welcome aboard" XD XD XD
Fucking brilliant. The way you kept working in your Mum's double entrendres was fantastic. You are moving beyond stand-up to becoming a humorist/raconteur. A combination of insight, wit, intelligence, and (outrageous) humor. Put more simply I'm a huge fan. I have become addicted to how she starts her shows with that 'HELLO!'
Fantastically detailed Comedy. Clever. Funnier than the audience is letting on. I understand where you got your sense of humour. Very funny women in your family. Excellent stuff.🇦🇺
This was well worth the wait! Thank you so much for posting your work, by far one of my favorite comedians. And Im happy for you! Sounds like youre in a good place. It was great to watch this and hear the beautiful message you wanted to give your fans. Please, keep doing what you do. Youre appreciated, adored, and loved by many.
OMG! Di, Fantastic, what PUNishment! A real wordsmith and storyteller! Holding my breath now that when I get up to 2018 you and Kevin will be still together! Luv yer Mum too!
Diane, you are one of the best comedians I have seen in a long time. I agree with Erik that you are up there with the greats. I also think it is a shame that you haven't had a huge venue yet. (as far as I know) your story telling is exceptional and always makes me laugh. I love how you take some of the worst moments in your life and find the funny side. You are an inspiration to me to laugh at the hardships and keep pushing forward. I have been hoping and waiting for your next show and I wasn't disappointed. Keep up the fantastic work!
That's a really kind message, thank you! Well, I like to be optimistic that one day, I will have a huge venue, but it just takes time. Laughing at the worst moments, when you can, is a nice release - why spend life angry? :-) I hope you continue to keep smiling, and I'm super glad I could help x
Hey Diane. I've been watching your hour long specials for the past year. I found you when I was at my darkest moments this last year, and I just wanted to thank you for being able to make me laugh when I hadn't laughed in months. I just want to give you a little encouragement, and to tell you to never give up. You're an amazing comedian; better than I think any other I've seen. This is coming from an individual who loves to listen to comedians. I feel that I could actually compare you to the comedy of Robin Williams, in my opinion. Keep going! You're the best. Thank you, GOOD NIGHT!
Dear Vibesman4 - thank you very much for your kind note! I will not give up. We all have dark moments, and you are not alone, but I'm glad I could bring some light into yours. Take care, and all the best, Di :)
You are one of my favorite comedians. I listen to your specials/long sets often; so much so that I can often say everything in sync like a drag queen... I’m watching this performance again to cheer me up. Today, and often, I’ve been doing a lot of horrible self talk saying that I will never be loved. I had been doing this all day, and then I thought about you and this performance. You make me laugh and give me hope. Thank You ❤️
Hi Thomas! I'm so happy I'm one of your favourites - thank you for taking the time to say that and write to me. I am so happy to be there in this odd digital future way, but theoretically we're all connected anyway right? Quantum mechanics apparently (clearly I know so little about it LOL!). I hope, I genuinely hope you break this cycle of negative self talk. Cognitive Behavioural therapy is really good for this, and becoming aware of negativity and breaking out of it. I wish you all the best
Wonderful! I was going to perform at the Stand this year, but obvs pandemic problems. Hopefully will be able to tour soon. Thanks for taking the time to watch my work John :D
Awesome stuff Diane! Accidentally bumped into your channel as I was watching some British Stand up. Loved your 2012 skit and am hooked on it. Cheers all the way from Borneo!
Bryan Too Hello Borneo! Really happy you enjoyed my stuff! My 2012 one was something I'm very proud of, but it seems to make people really like it or hate it!! Glad you liked it. Keep smiling!
What a great story! I admire your openness. It's great that one person telling an honest story can provide more satisfying entertainment than a movie studio spending millions of dollars on a crap story.
Thank you every so much Michael, I'm really experimenting with standup. I like to try different formats for a show and this was a very theatrical show, so I wanted it to have a full on narrative. It really makes me happy that you appreciated the story and let me know :)
I stumbled across your show 'Exquisite Bad Taste ' yesterday and this is my 4th show of yours today ! love you just the way you are too . Best wishes from Montreal Canada ;-)
Thank you so much - it was hilarious, I for sure have not laughed so hard for a very long time. I reached a point where my belly muscles started hurting!!!
"When you're clumsy, love is the one thing you want to fall into."
That is perhaps the most powerful quote I've gotten this year. Thank you, Diane, this was very beautiful.
Thank you very much - you are most welcome Rhenn :)
“When you’re a clumsy person, love is the one thing you want to fall into” - that is so beautifully said omg 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Thank you :) I try to put some softer moments in, a bit of contrast all helps. :)
I go back and watch these shows every few months while I write for work, and they never fail to bring a smile to my face. It's been a couple of years, and I still consider
"When you're clumsy, love is the one thing you want to fall into"

Wow... what a comment to read!! Thank you so much for seeing beyond the surface as well. It's really rewarding to make something intricate with layering, but then DOUBLY rewarding when someone else gets it! Thank you. That show had a very particular structure, and I'm glad it shone through. At the end of one of the others "Noob", I put my email address - write to me and make sure you let me know where you are in the world. When I get enough people I'll get on a plane! All the best, Di
I’ve watched all your specials Mrs. Spencer and I really think they would make for a hilarious comedy series.
Thank you so much! I originally wrote Power Tool in six sections, the idea was to create a sitcom series from that, but I couldn't get it off the ground.
@@DianeSpencercomedian you shouldn’t give up on that…I don’t know if you’ve pitched it to American producers I really think it would be well received.
Miss Diane: Another wonderful, witty, very funny show. I'm not sure why the crowd wasn't louder. I laughed all the way thru. Thank you again for making my night a lot more fun and my life a little better. I will always be in your debt for sharing your heart and Talent. I'm sure the only one luckier than your step children is their father. Even while joking your love shows right through.
With love from AZ

Dear De Montana, I'm delighted you enjoyed that show! That's the gamble with live comedy, especially when you're in the beginning stages, which I am really - it's all an adventure. Sometimes you have a film crew that records the sound better, sometimes you get an audience that laughs more :) I don't mind, it's all part of the whole. Have a great day! All the best from chirpy (n cold) UK!
Great fun. Only came across your stuff day before yesterday but made up for it by binge-watching all of your shows.
gerald bauer art Wonderful :) I'm glad you enjoyed it. Writing the new one now.
Congrats to Diane for finally getting off the roof.
Eventually ... :)
@@DianeSpencercomedian around the time u get a Netflix special lol I've already watched every special I can find u need more lmao 🤣😆🤣😆
So Glad I discovered here programs, watched every bit I could geht in the Last 24 Hours. Soooo good!
Oh yay! Well done for binge watching :)
People carefully sipping their drinks in case you make them spit it out laughing 😂
I am doing half-days, now. Although I see a lot of people's material, you are still the best, Diane! ❤
Hi Father Badger! My responses might be a little slow, as I am trying to do these twice a week :) I'm so happy you love my work - making a new video right now :)
@@DianeSpencercomedian
I can't wait for your new video. 🐶😊
I've been watching these in random order. I am happy to know you to the extent that you have allowed. My life is better for it. Please continue to be you!
(By "the extent that you have allowed" I mean via these videos.)
The only place I've encountered "ginger" stereotypes is in films, television, and videos and chiefly from the British Isles. (That and the "red-headed stepchild" trope that nobody seems to understand.)
Two of my nephews are red-headed, one of my uncles is red-headed. Their hair color never comes up in conversation. So I can tell you, the parts of Iowa, South Dakota, and Minnesota I've lived in would not even notice your hair color.
In some of the videos I mentioned, gingers have been referred to as a race. Baffling, but also a good reminder of how arbitrary and socially-constructed races really are.
Hi Brian554xx, I have heard about the redheaded stepchild thing. I agree, it's all bizarre, but something that I have discovered through other people. I'm glad you enjoy my comedy :)
Omg i love diane spencer
Thanks buddy :)
Fantastic! It is funny as hell. Not only that, it is also insightful and there is a deeper message here wrapped in humor which makes it stand apart. Outstanding!
Haha! Thank you very much. I think the best kind of comedy (cliché coming!) is the stuff that makes you laugh for 5 seconds, but think for 5 minutes. Is that the phrase? Well, you probably get what I mean :) Thanks for enjoying the show.
Your mom is a treasure! I love the Dorset accent you did for her. This show is heartfelt and hilarious. How you don’t have a comedy special on HBO is a grave miscarriage of justice. I look forward to seeing more of your work. Years from now when you do an autobiography, I hope there’s audible version.
Thank you Thomas! Mum is a treasure, she's sometimes utterly bonkers, but she makes me laugh a lot. Thank you for your support :)
Discovered the brilliance that is Diane Spencer and am currently binge watching through all your videos. Fourth since yesterday and anticipate a withdrawal once I finish the last show 👌👌👌
Thank you Berglind! I'm very happy to be your current addiction :)
I adore your humour. You are the most entertaining comedienne ever! Thank you!
Greg Campbell Thank you Greg, I'm glad :)
What a great person , love your way of telling your stories !🙂
Thank you Jim! I'm so glad you enjoyed that show :D
By far the funniest female comedian at the moment. Keep them coming Diane !!!
+Daz Shaw Hi Daz, thank you very much! I'm glad you like my work :) Writing the new one now!
love this, I'm from Dorset as well, Christchurch, and its so lovely to hear people talking about what its really like to live there and not just how beautiful it is!! :) xx
Ha! Glad you like it. I used to be able to tell the difference between the helicopters that flew from Yeovilton - that's how frequent they were.
Finally a Comedienne who's on par with Louis C.K., Chappelle or Rock.
Saw all your specials in a row and it was great.
Go on Diane!
Michael Breidenbach Thank you Michael, that's immensely flattering! I love Louis CK and Chris Rock - haven't seen enough Chappelle. You ever tried Doug Stanhope?
Diane Spencer
Thanks for the tipp. Just watched "Before Turning The Gun On Himself" (2012). It was funny, but also a little bit too aggressive for me. I like more the "Guess what happened to me the other day"-kind of comedy (like you do). Comedians making fun of themselves mixed with observations of their surroundings.
Tipp from me: Patton Oswalt!
Michael Breidenbach Awesome! Thank you x
Diane Spencer
You're welcome.
At the end there was a very humble human element to the show. I loved that. Great show ms.Spencer.
Thank you very much Pavel.
second show of yours i have seen, loved them both and will be watching everything.
love your sense of humor and your story telling ability is captivating,
Thank you very much! Welcome aboard! You have sewn up zombie Kenny as your avatar, you are most welcome here :)
Im so grateful this appeared on my recommended. Di you are now one of my fav comedians. Your jokes are great and make my day.
Plus you have convinced me to give gingers a go. 👍😄
Hahahah!! I'm glad you enjoyed my work THAT much! What I find really funny, is that TH-cam recommends things for me to write, presumably this is for people who want to respond to fans quickly... response suggestions for you included "Welcome aboard" XD XD XD
Do you have a website, where we can find out you will be doing a stand up gig? Especially after covid, we all need a good laugh.
Fucking brilliant. The way you kept working in your Mum's double entrendres was fantastic. You are moving beyond stand-up to becoming a humorist/raconteur. A combination of insight, wit, intelligence, and (outrageous) humor. Put more simply I'm a huge fan.
I have become addicted to how she starts her shows with that 'HELLO!'
2020 Still whimsically dark & hilarious!! You madam, are still my go to!
Thank you so much Elizabeth!
Awesome show! One of my favourite comedians out there.
Thanks Mike x
Bravo! This is absolutely marvelous; funny, witty and wonderfully crafted. This is the first show I have seen, of Diane, and I can't wait to see more.
Thank you so much Abraham! Welcome aboard! Have a wonderful time perusing the collection 😊🌈
I'm so so so so happy my friend showed you to me. I've not found a comedian I loved this much since Eddie Izzard. You're awesome!
Lythya Thank you so much! That's a very great comparison, and I'm very flattered. x
Fantastically detailed Comedy. Clever. Funnier than the audience is letting on. I understand where you got your sense of humour. Very funny women in your family. Excellent stuff.🇦🇺
Thank you so much Deborah! I'm so happy you enjoyed my show.
I love how her inner child comes out. The roof the voices everything. Very entertaining
Thank you! I appreciate you seeing that.
1 hour of pure laughter. that was brilliant!
pissedoffpanda7 thank you pissedoffpanda7! I love the name x
I love your humor Diane! Watching your shows makes my day brighter :) and for what it's worth I think you'd make an excellent queen XD!
WhiteFlame9 haha!! Thank you, I shall perfect my royal wave, and invent a shield/crest!
I LOVE YOU
Diane Spencer!!!
Thanks matey love you too 💖
This was well worth the wait! Thank you so much for posting your work, by far one of my favorite comedians. And Im happy for you! Sounds like youre in a good place. It was great to watch this and hear the beautiful message you wanted to give your fans. Please, keep doing what you do. Youre appreciated, adored, and loved by many.
Wow, that's so kind, and really makes me feel so thankful. Thank you very much, and don't worry, I have no intention of stopping!! x
I haven't laughed so hard for a long time. Absolutely brilliant!!!! Keep 'em coming.
+Stuart Guthrie Thank you very much Stuart :)
Absolutely lovely. Go for it Di. Great show.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you so much!! I love all your shows... I die laughing every time. Mind-gasm XD ♥
From Jamaica
Love your openness & the truths you drop... Also you're gorgeous :)
+Tricia-Rae Lillux Butler Thank you Tricia-Rae, you're very kind :)
OMG! Di, Fantastic, what PUNishment! A real wordsmith and storyteller! Holding my breath now that when I get up to 2018 you and Kevin will be still together! Luv yer Mum too!
We will be! In fact our wedding anniversary is soon
Diane, you are one of the best comedians I have seen in a long time. I agree with Erik that you are up there with the greats. I also think it is a shame that you haven't had a huge venue yet. (as far as I know) your story telling is exceptional and always makes me laugh. I love how you take some of the worst moments in your life and find the funny side. You are an inspiration to me to laugh at the hardships and keep pushing forward. I have been hoping and waiting for your next show and I wasn't disappointed. Keep up the fantastic work!
That's a really kind message, thank you! Well, I like to be optimistic that one day, I will have a huge venue, but it just takes time. Laughing at the worst moments, when you can, is a nice release - why spend life angry? :-) I hope you continue to keep smiling, and I'm super glad I could help x
You give this 40yo man hope for a rainbow after the hurricane with that ending!!
Love you Diane!!!
Mexican Panda! Have hope! My husband turned 40 just after we met :)
Oh my gosh I've watch 3 straight hours of her comedy! Why don't more people know her! She's hilarious! Man I hope I can see her live one day
Amazing!!!! Thanks man :) Where in the world are you?
Diane Spencer I'm in Tennessee, unfortunately.
This feels ahead of it’s time for 2013!
I am always early... I was going to write premature!! XD
Hey Diane. I've been watching your hour long specials for the past year. I found you when I was at my darkest moments this last year, and I just wanted to thank you for being able to make me laugh when I hadn't laughed in months. I just want to give you a little encouragement, and to tell you to never give up. You're an amazing comedian; better than I think any other I've seen. This is coming from an individual who loves to listen to comedians. I feel that I could actually compare you to the comedy of Robin Williams, in my opinion. Keep going! You're the best. Thank you, GOOD NIGHT!
Dear Vibesman4 - thank you very much for your kind note! I will not give up. We all have dark moments, and you are not alone, but I'm glad I could bring some light into yours. Take care, and all the best, Di :)
If Diane had a web sight I'm going to live there 4 ever. Tell me a Story haha lol haha hahaha
If Diane had a web sight I'm going to live there 4 ever. Tell me a Story haha lol haha hahaha
You are one of my favorite comedians. I listen to your specials/long sets often; so much so that I can often say everything in sync like a drag queen...
I’m watching this performance again to cheer me up. Today, and often, I’ve been doing a lot of horrible self talk saying that I will never be loved.
I had been doing this all day, and then I thought about you and this performance.
You make me laugh and give me hope.
Thank You ❤️
Hi Thomas! I'm so happy I'm one of your favourites - thank you for taking the time to say that and write to me. I am so happy to be there in this odd digital future way, but theoretically we're all connected anyway right? Quantum mechanics apparently (clearly I know so little about it LOL!). I hope, I genuinely hope you break this cycle of negative self talk. Cognitive Behavioural therapy is really good for this, and becoming aware of negativity and breaking out of it. I wish you all the best
I might be late watching this, but you are truly awesome and hilarious! Love your energy and vibe. Gonna binge watch your videos now! :P
Hahah!! You're right on time mate. Thanks so much - have a lovely time flicking through the catalogue!
Great show, Beautiful finish.
Michael L Thank you.
Working my way through all your work. Every one of them as good the last
Wonderful! I was going to perform at the Stand this year, but obvs pandemic problems. Hopefully will be able to tour soon. Thanks for taking the time to watch my work John :D
Awesome stuff Diane! Accidentally bumped into your channel as I was watching some British Stand up. Loved your 2012 skit and am hooked on it. Cheers all the way from Borneo!
Bryan Too Hello Borneo! Really happy you enjoyed my stuff! My 2012 one was something I'm very proud of, but it seems to make people really like it or hate it!! Glad you liked it. Keep smiling!
Hi Diane had fun watching your show thank you for all the laughs and stories
Hi Jigar, thank you for watching. :)
What a really great lady! Just loved this video!
Glad you enjoyed it! :)
So glad the TH-cam Algorithm brought this into my recommended. She's Brilliant 👏
So glad you took a chance on my work :) Thankyou
What a great story! I admire your openness. It's great that one person telling an honest story can provide more satisfying entertainment than a movie studio spending millions of dollars on a crap story.
Thank you every so much Michael, I'm really experimenting with standup. I like to try different formats for a show and this was a very theatrical show, so I wanted it to have a full on narrative. It really makes me happy that you appreciated the story and let me know :)
I'm so glad I found your channel!! You're seriously laugh-til-you-cry funny ♥
yummyviolets Thank you very much! New show coming closer to the end of this year :)
"All the vol-au-vents on the floor and 200 dead irishmen... like my love life"
underrated joke there!
Thank you!
I stumbled across your show 'Exquisite Bad Taste ' yesterday and this is my 4th show of yours today ! love you just the way you are too .
Best wishes from Montreal Canada ;-)
Yay! Welcome! Hello from the UK :D
Holy shit, Diane. This was so funny I almost pissed myself, and I thought I was doing enough kegels that I didn't have to worry about that.
Haha! I had to look up Kegels! Amazing. Thank you Ruth :) x
Thank you so much - it was hilarious, I for sure have not laughed so hard for a very long time. I reached a point where my belly muscles started hurting!!!
+DonMia Frost You are immensely kind for writing - thank you :) Your comment made my day.
