"mexican is not a slur, you need to calm down" THANK YOU
So important to say Ashley !! Alone, the word 'Mexican' (or 'Puerto Rican' or 'New Yorker, 'European,' 'Jamaican' or the like) is simply an identifier for a person who came from a particular place. And such bound&/or adjectives only becomes problematic when used in a pejorative racist group-think way. Far too many people DO NOT understand this🤦♀️
“You should know that gays, you majored in English”
I’m SCREECHING; I majored in English and like 80% of everyone I knew was LGBT+
It’s because he’s Italian was the best comeback i’ve ever heard 😂
Whoever edits your content does an amazing job. Normally I watch your shorts and other quick videos, but decided to watch this because I have more time than usual.
I am seriously impressed with how the editor can make multiple shorts from a long set, as well as condense all the important moments into one minute. I'll have to make time for the rest of your videos.
I edit the shorts and I edited this! Alex does my podcast and vlog pieces. So thank you!
Also this is the first time anyone has said this to me and I feel so seen.
@@ashgavs I watched the short you made from this, then this video, and I agree, it's great editing. So many people take 60 seconds of video and post it even if it cuts off right at the punchline or the answer to the question they're discussing or whatever.
@@ashgavs And btw, it seems like Mexicans love Mexican jokes. I have a coworker who said he's a Mexican not a Mexican't.
I’m glad I got to see the context of the “settle down” moment. I think comments on that short were saying that it was a couple, but the guy being her dad makes so much sense.
She sounds like she's having so much fun! I personally love when comedians seem to be enjoying the show as much as their audience. It helps me relax and enjoy the show too!
Agreed- at times it feels like comedians are straight up attacking the audience. I feel like Ashley is so great at making sure everyone’s enjoying it, including the person she’s interacting with.
I laughed so hard at this that my girlfriend came into the living room to see what was going on
“It’s because you’re Italian” 🤣
Hahaha
Lol right.
What?????
There’s nothing I love more than when Ashley is so proud of one of her own jokes 😂😂
You make it look easy, but this is an insane amount of talent, my friend.
"[QUEER WHITE GUILT GASPING]" is one of the best captions I've ever seen.
my favourite part is is that, short of flirting with his daughter, Javier seems to be clearly having the time of his fucking life throughout all of this
I could hear him giving some HUGE laughs
Also I love the camera adjustment what a helpful audience member lol
😏
Lesbian comedians are definitely the only stand up comedians I can bare to watch. Love this performance and interaction!
You're right about that one type of white lesbian. They're totally like that; and you're 100% correct about racism and comedy. I love you so much.
the kiosk joke obliterated me surprisingly so much pride 😂😂
Nobody asked, but that hasn’t stopped me before! I have never liked standup. To me, it’s just too scripted to possibly be funny. But YOU Ashley, you have changed me! You are fucking funny! The improv and crowd interactions are so entertaining to watch that it doesn’t even feel like standup - it feels like you’re watching your hilarious friend tell a story. Something about it hits different. Thank you for your service and please keep doing what you’re doing! ❤ Can’t wait to see where your gift takes you
If you like stand-up built on audience interactions you'll likely enjoy Drew Lynch also!
@@SpoiltLittlePrincess Who promotes ANOTHER comedian on a comedian's video?! SMH 😆
@@theembersinside1420 Why not? Comedians work together all of the time, it's hardly competition, you can support two people at the same time - particularly two people with different comedic demographics and - to an extent - styles. But idk maybe American fans are weird about that kind of thing, in the UK comedians and their fans crossover quite often.
@@SpoiltLittlePrincess no, it’s odd that they think it’s weird. Especially since Ashley has a podcast that regularly has other comedians on it so I doubt she’d mind much
@Larissa Pienaar I never said they couldn't. I said its rude to "promote" another comedian on this comedian's channel/thread.
I dunno about you but I just legit did a deep dive into Facilitation jobs. The spectrum and ~fluidity~ associated with that identifier is so vast, it leaves all the LGBTQIA+++++ acronyms far behind
‘Fixer’
Switchboard operator…
This is the first standup video of yours I've watched and I regret it. I nearly died choking on a pretzel watching this. How dare you make me laugh while eating a pretzel!
EDIT: actually this is the second standup video of yours I've watched but I forgot the first one because I didn't almost die while watching it
I was just waiting for that last punch line! So well executed!!!!
You truly shine on stage I couldn't imagine you doing anything else, the enegry you bring is so captivating!
Literally nothing makes me laugh. I’ve never been that much into comedy because no one seems to get my humor and I just don’t laugh easily. But you have me dying laughing. I could watch you all day. I don’t like stand up a whole lot, but I love your stuff. Also the video was edited perfectly. Not too long, not too short, showed all the best bits and I was bummed when the video was over. I want to come see you live!
LOVE the long form content. The shorts always slap too but god your crowdwork is just so much fun to watch. Can’t wait for your special 💕
i adore the surprise mafia punchline. that's *elegant*, ashley!
Javier at the end just going bingo LOL he knows he's a shady Italian LOL
I had seen the shorter version on your insta but I'm obsessed with this longer version too this was way too funny, also I wanna second the comment that mentioned the editing because it adds so much to the flow of the video, 10/10!!
This is so amazing Ashley!❤ The way you dance on this fine line and joke about these sensitive things. Most other „vogue“ comedians avoid these topics altogether. But you are not afraid of them.
The “it’s cuz you’re Italian” punchline got me. Great stuff!!!
Thanks for being one of the comedians that knows how to make trans jokes without dehumanizing us lmao. Much appreciated, honestly.
ash, that little 'writing a movie w/ diablo cody' email was both funny af and heart-warming. thanks for sending that out. appreciate you
Yay!!! Ashley this was so fun! I can't believe I've seen so much of your pod and so little of your live material. Can't wait to make it to a show one day.
I’m a comedian first :)
@@ashgavs Yes, and a damn good one!! I bet the pod has not only helped more people discover you but also has given you more perspectives to use in your bits, creating more relatability.
In short, you're awesome!! Thank you for bringing laughter to a world that so desperately needs it. 💗
Ashley!! I loved the live show today!! The two Femms and a Masc bit was effing great! Would love to see more of that! Did you ask Contestant #2 to go on an actual date with you?!
I knew the “white women in the room would get upset” joke was coming because I watched the short. It still sent me into a coughing fit cuz I inhaled sharply while very congested bc I was laughing
since i already wrote a paragraph about how i feel in the shorts comment section, all i'll say here is this is amazing and you are amazing.
"sweet Sydney whispered" that really got me😭😭😭😭
Just to blow some people mind .. I am Italian, white, straight, very christian AND I find her hysterical 😂
I don't know who freaking decided that you need to 'agree' with a comedian to laugh at what they say.
It's insane 🤷🏻♀️
Comedy is a form of art!! Let them be artist freely
I agree with you. Come to a show some time!
Ahhh, I can't wait to see you in Dallas later this month! The way you work the crowd is SO good. Had time to watch a longer video and I'm just as impressed as I was with your shorts.
these videos are officially my new favorite. can't wait for a special from you
This is the revolution in stand-up!! Thank u, Ashley. You're saving lives, truly!🤘🏻😛
Ashley, thanks for the laughs. Your bits, and the bits that aren't bits, are delivered hilariously. The Javier content is great, but "I chose to to be a fuc boi" was great
You are incredibly funny. What a killer comedian, thanks for the belly laughs!
I don't think any other Kyle in the world could pull off ten minutes of race jokes and interrogate a Mexican facilitator in actually funny way. Ashley Gavin is like the lesbian Trojan Horse of comedy, in the most hilarious, straightforward way ever. Another great set with amazing crowd work.
Ashley Gavin’s stand up is incredible. She never fails to make me laugh
I love how you do the "Knock it outta the park" swing xD
Love the energy that you generate in the room, on this bit. You killed it.
Hghggg the captions 🤣 [SWEET SYDNEY WHISPERS] 😭🙏
"Are you a pimp?"
DEAFENING SILENCE.
So, probably.
Your quick wit and punchlines sure do pack a punch! This was great to watch 👏👏
2:35 "you go to Carnegie Mellon? That's cool 😏" that fucking GRIN, Ashley, you're trouble and you know it 😂
This video contains everything I love about Ashley Gavin
Hahaha he goes, "Bingo!"
The grade school teacher in the background open-mouthed laughing kills me!!! You just see her go from happy surprised giggle at the beginning to summoning Cthulhu by the end.
I just went to your website, since when do you act this well ??? Is your acting and improv content available ? I would literally binge watch it in one day lol.
“And it’s NOT because you’re Mexican….it’s because you’re Italian!” I CACKLED
The Italian bit at the end was so on point and funny XD
This needs to blow the fuck up its hilarious
patiently waiting for the text that says you're back in our area and tickets are for sale, dying to see you live! Bringing my friend with me to see you too!
I am so invested in Javier's Job now
At the start I was just wishing someone had taped out the borders of the camera coverage so she knew where she could walk and stay in frame. Then I managed to calm down and enjoy the awesome jokes 🤣
I love your sense of humour. I so look forward to seeing you live in NY
Thank you! My special comes out next week :)
The laugh that sprung out of me at the Italian line, oh my lord. I hope you come to Toronto some day!
I love that lady laughing with every single joke HAHSHAH
this is incredible. thank you for showing me how to make a joke of everyone being afraid I'm going to say something racist on accident lmao
Wow! 200,000 views!!! Congrats, Ashley! 🥳
Please come to europe i cannot afford the flight! 😂🙏🙏🙏 Thank you for always brightening my days! ❤️
☝️
Yessss please. I'm from the Netherlands and everytime I see you I'm laughing my ass off. You are so f@ing funny!!!!!!!!
The kiosk joke omfg i was screaming
“It’s because you’re Italian” 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
This is some next level George Carlin shit!!! Fuckin' with folks over their hypocrisy and the power of word choice have over them. FOKIN' AMAZING!!! 🔥🔥🔥👏👏👏👏
I love when we get the side view and the chicks in the front row are just cackling
I've seen the "settle down" clip so many times but I now finally understood Sidney was his daughter. I can sleep at peace now.
Loved this lol can't wait to see your show in Phoenix! 😁
There are very few comedians who can work a crowd like Ashley can 😊❤
The subtitles "sweet Sydney whispers" has me
Ashley, you're amazing! You crack me up every time.
I love Ashley!! ❤️ One of the best!
🤣 I love her so much. This made me chuckle so much. Absolute perfection
I love this so much, I wish I had the money to fly to America and see your show live, fr!
It was really great to see this entire set.
Omg I just love you so much! Subscribed! I laughed SO hard during all of this! ❤
I haven't cracked up this hard in forever 🤣 definitely buying tickets if you're brave enough to come close to Huntsville, Alabama 😅
“sweet sidney whispers” i died at that lol I really wanna know what she looked like tho
the captions are really, really good ahaha i would love to see you in person
That woman with the glasses from the side camera is DYING laughing and I can't blame her I would be too
Randomly came up on my feed. I was entertained.
This is a most excellent bit of improvisation in comedy and I'm pretty much in love with you. That being said I am going to leave a comment for other people to see that has virtually nothing to do with comedy, because the subjects of Trump, race, and gardening intersect in an interesting way many people don't yet know.
75% of agricultural production in the U.S. is carried out by migrant labor and of those, 50% are undocumented. We literally rely on Central/South American workers for our most essential need; food. The United States and the IMF wrecks the economies of Central/South American & Caribbean countries such that private industries can continue receiving cheap labor and stealing the precious resources of these countries such as lithium, oil and gold (Our military generals, such as General Richardson of Southern Command, can be quoted admitting this verbatim). We also prop up the entire illicit drug trade with our banks here in the U.S. who knowingly hold the $ for the Mexican cartels, and who thereafter profit from the many private industries here which are dependent upon drug addiction (methadone industry, prison industry, adoption industry, to name a few). Because the Mexican government under ALMO is winning their war on the cartels, the U.S. now wants to invade Mexico. The corporate state media will lie and say our government wants to invade in order to defeat the cartels, but the truth is the opposite; we want to assist the cartels in defeating the Mexican government. If you don't believe our government lies, look up declassified government operations like Operation Northwoods for example; when the U.S. proposed murdering U.S. civilians in planned terrorist attacks on U.S. soil in order to blame the deaths on Cuba and mar Cuba's image. The examples and evidence of the corporate state's betrayal of the American people - and ultimately of humanity on the whole - is almost infinite.
These libby whites will balk at racist jokes without ever exploring or admitting to the Capitalist roots of racist structures.
Trumpers are an interesting phenomenon, because while they tend to be backwards socially, they tend also to be against imperialism moreso than libs; Trump started no new wars, and even ended one, and his supporters loved that. I frankly think Trumpers are easier to convert to Socialism than Democrats are. Also when presented with facts, the young Trumpers - unlike their older counterparts - can be discouraged away from racism. Libs think that they can moralize people into doing away with racism but you can't because racism has economic roots and until you examine and attack those economic roots it's never going away.
It's not racist to acknowledge that most of our farmers and a good portion of our domestic laborers are Mexican or latinx. What's racist is to NOT acknowledge that, and therefore to fail to acknowledge the predatory position the US has over Latin America (and many other parts of the world).
If you don't understand why China and Russia are getting so much support globally, which is why the corporate state-media has ramped up its anti-China/anti-Russia propaganda here in the States, it is precisely because the global community is fed up with U.S. interference in and oppression of their economies. If you tell this to liberal whites, 9 times out of 10 they will completely dismiss it.
took offense to them femme walk 🤣 swear to god i don’t walk that way
maybe a little ..
@@iAzaria maybe a little... that had me laughing in the middle of the street. Hahahahahahaha
“if you ever meet a person named Kiosk,,, assume they/them” SKFKSKFIISF
i was gonna say you’re missing the “i hate u cuz ur italian actually” but it was so perfectly placed
The tie in at the end of the set was legend!
Okay I'm officially convinced that I NEED to see you live
🖤 love your material, whether it’s planned or not. Hilarious.
I love how everyone who isn't from Pittsburgh knows how to pronounce "Carnegie" but almost no one here does, even though we named a bunch of stuff after the guy 😄
I recently found your content and nobody has ever made me laugh soo hard. I’d honestly love to be able to attend one of your shows at some point. Also, I honestly have a serious question. Have you ever met a lesbian republican?
I’m probably one of the last people you’d expect watching this. I’m deeply conservative and Muslim. I don’t agree with a lot, but you make me laugh so dang much. 😂
Someone needs to add New York elitist to the Wiki page
Sooooo good! 😂😂😂😂
Ok, you might be my new favorite comedian!
Thank you! My special drops 4/23
@@ashgavs Can't wait!
i loved the girl in the green crewneck that was just laughing so incredibly hard
I LITERALLY ALMOST PEED AND I DIDN’T HAVE TO GO TO THE TOILET😂
Her and using kioske in her jokes 😭😭😭>>
You won my like, my comment and my subscription
As a Mexican, I can 100% confirm that this is not offensive, and in fact just jokes😂
This video helps to show why celebs get meltdowns. Too many people in the audience driving entertainers crazy. Ashley is doing her best to stay calm. Poor Ashley.
