Guys get this. I fell in love with norm’s work from watching TH-cam clips of him. I would obsessively watch his standup and podcast clips. I even found his old standup specials on DVD. One day I decided that I would drive all the way from Richmond, VA to the Wilbur theater in Boston, MA to see him (believe it or not it was the closest upcoming show). I bought tickets for his show there in October, 2021 to see my hero. And then in September he died. While at first I was devastated, eventually I found it to be hilarious. Getting geared up to meet a hero and then he suddenly dies sounds like a Norm bit, so I’ll take it. It’s almost as good as seeing him live!
Master Craftsman in top form. Unique perspective, original comedic voice, brilliant material, and masterful delivery. Along with Richard Pryor he is one of the greatest comedic minds that ever lived. Incomparable stand-up, riveting talk show appearances, and best ever deliverer of the fake news. Love Norm Forever
I was at this show. I was a huge fan, and couldn’t talk anyone into going with me, so I went alone and am very thankful I got to see him before he passed. Thanks for posting!
He had a beautiful way of letting people know his views on faith, his mother, and his own imminent death in this monologue while still keeping it funny. There is so much personal truth packed into this. He's able to talk about things that mattered deeply to him, while keeping it light. The casual listener will think the parts about his mom, his funeral, and his faith were just bits, but they're clearly expressions of Norm's deeper thoughts and highlight where his mind was at. God bless you, Norm. You've become an example to me in my life, of how to cling to hope and light when everything around you seems otherwise.
I didn't even know his name till after he died. I've listened to all I could find of him on my phone . I've never laughed so hard. But now all I can do is cry, an I never even knew him.
I think he meant the second part. About leaving a good lasting impression. While also being funny. Which is more like walking a tight rope across the grand canyon. I think 🤔
God Willing, it Will be the year. The last time Norm Macdonald came to Boston i missed him. A client who saw him said it was sad because everyone left the room, (which, made me smile and really wished i was there) Norm said, real comics referred to it as "walking the room." A right of passage. So when you do try, remember, the greatest thing to happen to an aspiring or famous comedian is not only to have the crowd turn on you, but to get up and leave. LOL. Norm said he loved it when that would happen because it made the great nights feel that much greater. Plus he found it funny. Watching a happy room slowly turn into an unruly mob. 😂 Regret is so much worse than rejection. And Norm said he had no regrets about his life. Either way, you cant take life too seriously, you'll never make it out alive. God Bless man ! 🙏
I saw him in NYC two months before this. My wife told me to get a photo with him after the show but I said “I don’t want to bother him. I’ll ask next time.” Big regret.
You should be happy you didn't inconvenience the man when he was dying quietly. Celebs don't like taking photos with you. Or signing shit. But people always ask so they do it.
The story at the end about his mom, reflecting back on it you could hear in his voice the amount of love he had for her. Miss Norm, that deeply closeted, old chunk of coal.
you are not alone, it saddens me to think how much funny stuff we didn't get to hear from him as he grew older, the best standup comic of all time for me as well
It's sad but I think the diagnosis also focused him during the last decade of his life. That's when he started putting out specials and doing the podcast as well as the book
He did, but when it was over the lights came on and he had been at some old guy’s house watching home movies thinking it was Matlock the whole time. Didn’t even look like him! Your comment is hilarious
This is an absolute masterpiece. Every single second is timed to perfection. Every little quip and seemingly off hand comment deliberate and masterfully presented. This seemingly rambling hour is an absolute mind-blowingly good recitation. Its just the same as Shakespeare being recited and being lauded but this is better as you don't even realise it. He is/was forever will be the GOAT.
My favorite comedian that ever walked the earth! You never see where he's landing, and to be unfiltered like this is a beautiful quality comedy is missing today. Exactly why I don't watch any new SNL, only back when it was actually funny in the 90's. Comedy needs the counter culture, and the ability to say anything, otherwise it's not even comedy to me.
Its amazing how he helped that Eget fellow. Really a wretched creature but that old chunk of coal had a heart of gold and by god he took adam from under that bridge in atlantic city and got him on track. ❤
@@markharmon4963 He was brave fighting that battle. He won the first time, but then, you know, the cancer came back and then it got brave. I guess you gotta give it to the cancer on this one. Norm was brave, but that cancer’s bravery, my lord. Enough to take a man’s breath away. Forever.

That's funny, just a couple days ago I saw a Norm MacDonald Live clip where he says the word, and of course he acts like he doesn't know how to pronounce it
In my opinion he never got the recognition that he deserved! We lost a brilliant minded scholar of literature and words! A one of a kind iconic comedian .R I. P. Norm.
he got all the recognition that he deserved and wanted. norm's comedy wasn't for everyone and he never tried to make it so. but he's at the top of the list for most comedians and that's all that matters.
His delivery his voice everything about norm MacDonald Was like being a kid again listening with a smile and a warm feeling.There's no comedian that is Funnier authentic And fearless than Norm Macdonald, in my book.
I never got to see him live. 😢 one of my favorite comedians. Probably Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun he played too. Perhaps Providence, RI or Boston area. So many times I could have potentially caught one of his tours. I’ll never stop kicking myself. Thank you for uploading this. I was laughing so hard! 😂😂😂
The greatest comedic beat in history *is* by Norm. He was the master at sitting in the awkward silence, as the audience is wondering whether or not it just failed to get to get a punchline. Whenever someone mentions he never told anyone he was dying, we never knew about the cancer... I like to think of him smiling through our collective stunned silence, just waiting for us to laugh 😢 Rest In Peace, Norm 😂
That's an interesting perspective. Laughing at everyone realizing that his punchline was always there just went over their head until the context punched them in the gut.
13:10 - Norm's words of warning about internet pornography are right on the money. People laughed, but what he said here is not a joke; it's 100% true.
I love when a joke connects so personally. When I was 10 years old my mom took me to Hollywood, great choice. We walked up and there was a guy barfing on a star and I leaned over to read Bob Hope. I guess he was in a good spot

Norm has said that he does not like it when a comic’s aim is to be perceived as intelligent, instead of trying to make people laugh and to entertain. He spoke about Bill Maher as his chief example of a comic whose main goal is to be perceived as being smart. Norm’s own mental prowess dwarfed Maher’s and Norm preferred to play down his intelligence so as not to intimidate or exclude anyone. He didn’t even look down on Down’s Syndrome.
