Saw Rodney Rude at the Cabbage Tree Hotel in Fairy Meadow Wollongong 1984. I was a young student then and couldn't afford the ticket so we tried to sneak in. Suddenly someone behind us said "you know Rodney Rude is on tonight". We turned around and it was him. We told him we didn't have money for tickets and he arranged for us to see the show for free. Fucking funny bastard and a top bloke.
I was playing in the house band at Gobble's Nightclub in Perth when Rodney got arrested. There were cops in the crowd, cops in the stairway, cops having drinks in the manager's office...you get the idea. He had been told they were there to get him but he carried on. As the cops dragged him from the stage, beer cans and drinks showered the stage and things looked a bit ugly. With a policeman each side of him, Rodney clambered back to a microphone and said: "First time I've ever been pulled off by a copper"...and left the stage to a chorus of cheers.
I suppose the dirty perverted coppers were there because they wanted to get the strap-on that Rodney Rude was talking about in his jokes? They didn’t want the public finding out what things they get up to when they sit around the police station sipping cups of coffee and playing with their strap-ons.
ohhhhh it's a bloody tragedy ey! back in my day ey! i want my toime back. TRAGEDY!! things were bettah back then! this tragic TRAG3DIE is absolutely tragedicial. I'm TRAGERED!
Your a bloody dead set legend Rodney. You’ve actually shaped pretty much a language amongst my group of friends. We still pull one liners from your shows in the 80’s. Keep on keeping on. :)
I remember me and some mates when we were like 13 hiding in a bedroom secretly listening to a rude cassette tape someone had got their hands on. what he said shocked and amazed us, then as we listened more and more we realised that it wasn't just blatant swearing for shock value, it was a carefully crafted form of communication designed to create impact at certain points in his show. this man is a comic genius, and a bit of a genius in general; we should create a national comedy foundation then induct him as a hall of famer (along with graham kennedy). thank you Rodney for everything you've given us
I sort of had the same experience when a mate showed me some tapes from King Billy Cokebottle and he is now basically forgotten. His act was somehow deemed racist despite him having Aboriginal family and was well received within a lot of the Aboriginal communities and now these fucking dipshit leftists ruined his career. Good onya no sense of humour fuckwits.
So glad I got to meet him in 2016, he is the funniest dude ever. I told him my mum was a huge fan although she passed away in 2010, she would’ve loved to see you live. He said he was sorry to hear and that she would be proud of me 🥲
When I was a teenager I remember the first cassette I ever heard was "Rodney Rude Live" - my mother didn't like it but I loved it. This was 1984 - just before CD's became popular. Next to The 12th Man and Kevin Bloody Wilson, Rodney is a comedy GOD.
I know this sounds corny, but at times, when life got a bit "too much for me", I would put on a Rodney Rude record (back in the 80's) and somehow it was managealbe again.........I can't explain it any other way
Saw a cartoon in the herald sun 23/11/18, started off with, " Grandfather got badly burnt the other day", other bloke said how bad?, They dont fuck around at the crematorium! Fuck was reduced to muck, but Rodney still resonates to this day!
Walking through the Botanical Gardens in Brisbane in 1985, friend and I bump into Rodney Rude coming the other way with a lady friend. We told we'd seen filthy coppers up the end of the Garden and Rodney jumped into a nearby shrub, shook a few branches and yelled "Come and get me ya pig bastards!!!"
i went and seen rodney rude one night , was so funny, well........ i laughed really loud, got his attention, sadly, he looked over , as i was a bodybuilder type, says look at this guy, he needs to squeeze his head to get a fat,everyone laughed, my table full of family laughed too, he is soo funny, later on he came to table in a break and explained it was just comedy, i was completely fine with it, but was awesome he came to see me afterwards
good on ya steve. I saw him as long as 25 year ago at least and ye we used to always get hammered in the crowd. it was normally rsls cheap drinks and a good laugh. he didn't feel the need to come over and explain his humour here. not you (as can see by pic) but guess we had more sense of humour rather than climate change bashing people
dont forget that Rodney was writing shit about Rolf Harris _decades_ before any kiddyfiddler charges were laid against Rolf ... it's right up there with Einstein predicting gravitational waves 100 years before technology caught up with him to test (and successfully prove) his hypothesis. This is HISTORICAL PROOF that Rodney Rude had THE VISIONARY FORESIGHT OF A GENIUS.
Red Leader Playz, i guess you could say he was a trendsetter!

@Enter the Bragn’ Gravity waves are fucken proven. Most of the time, one peels back the denialist attitudes and finds some fucked up fundamentalist religious shit. Shit that needs kicking out of people.
i remember being at a backyard BBQ and one of my dads mates asked if he heard of this comedian, Rodney Rude. Dad says yeah my sons got his CD's. So the guy says we should listen to one now. And we did and everyone pissed themselves laughing.
Your irreplaceable with Col and Kev. We won't ever have this type of humor directly here in oz ever again.... It will never get old, and I'll always laugh mi brains out and tell some of your gags.......... Love ya Rude!!
I was in a fast food place the other day and I says to the waiter: I'll have 2 hamburgers and a hot dog. When the waiter came out he had the hamburgers under his armpits and I says: why you got em under your armpits for? He says: to keep em warm. I says: forget the hotdog. --- Rodney Rude
@@teamtoken Snowflakes love PC and get triggered at a Melbourne BLM march whilst spreading the Covid virus to everyone ! So I guess I'm not, sorry if you were triggered.
@@teamtoken Getting triggered is associated with someone shitting on or being vile to or calling others names in a chat. Which is the opposite of one expressing feelings of sadness and being dejected about a leftist narrative (political correctness) who's sole purpose is to put people down and take away their freedom to speak their mind with extreme judgement. You have been so reminded here.
Rodney Rude, Kevin Bloody Wilson, Eric Bogle, Col Elliott, King Billy Cokebottle, Cherylyn Barnes, Cheech and Chong are my favourite R rated comedians ever
Rodney, you'll always be a bloody legend mate. I can't thank you enough for the great nights and 40+ years of absolutely pissing myself laughing at your comedy. And thank you especially for winning this fight for free speech and the right for people to get on stage and give what they've got to offer without being stamped on by the system or those bloody purists without a sense of humour. You're beyond a legend Rude, you're an institution! Now I reckon I should ring me McMates and put one of your McTapes on so we can have some McBeers and McPiss ourselves laughing again!
I've seen him and the other major Aus acts live. It's hard to seperate my top 3 - Rodney Rude, Col Elliot, Carl Barron. I saw Rude in the late 80s and had watched one of his videotapes a couple of days before. So I probably saw 40 minutes worth of repeated material but it was still funny as fuck. The extra characters he does like Half-Rude and Harry Muff just enhance the whole experience.
It is a reply to an old comment. In the generation before Rodney Rude, there was a bloke called Johnny Garfield who told dirty jokes without all the fuck this fuck that etc. He played the padre in a movie called The Odd Angry Shot. It took me ages to track down one of his old shows on cassette. I saw his show back in 1987 - funniest show ever.
All these years later, I'll still break out in song ... "If I'm Prime Minister and that's debatable, I'd pass a law to make all cats inflatable ..." Annoys the cats.
Seen him 4 times, funniest shit I’ve ever seen. Never fails to put on a great show. His massive following nationwide is testament to his skills and craftsmanship as a standup comedian.
I used to take off the Rude in my drunken days with my high drunk voice, Me using Rodney’s material even had pubs and bars at a standstill laughing! That’s how funny The real Mr Rude is, Rodney #1👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 *now throw the Fuking board at me* !!! 🎯😂
It’s weird. I’m into horror movies. It used to be old, puritanical religious zealots censoring everything. Joyless old men and ladies in big horn-rimmed glasses in their Sunday best. “You can’t can’t say that or do this or show that”. Now it’s young, trendy people - it flipped. When the f*ck did that happen?
My theory is that it is filling a 'God-shaped hole'. Humans are almost instinctively religious, it naturally evolved as social glue for an intelligent, highly gregarious species. Without formal religion, humans tend to replace that with something else. The new woke culture has, as you say, the attitudes of a traditional, puritanical religion.
I think the simple explanation is young people inevitably rebel against the values of their parents. What better way to shock baby boomers and gen xers than to turn into into censorious, finger wagging puritans?
Religion was the driving force behind censorship as the vocal majority at the time were either religious or posing as religious people. Religion however is not popular like it was and the vocal majority now is the "progressive left" and instead of bible bashers you have social justice warriors competing over who is a bigger victim and demanding to be a protected class to the point that they are above criticism. To sum it up, politics and social justice are the new religion and is being fuelled by rewarding people for crying victim.
@@chrise5011 Yep, and the perpetrators of all wrong and crime have more rights now than the Victims or the innocent. Leftie shit like Parents can not discipline their Children Shit and look at Youth Crime. Life was very enjoyable in the 70,s and 80,s .
Saw Rodney Rude in the mid / late '80s, still have his hand signed T-shirt, it's still in pristine condition because if I'd worn it publicly, I'd be arrested...
Fucking hell he looks a bit like Rolf harris. That gave me a chuckle when I saw him. Still, he's my favourite comedian of all time. Love this guy he's a legend.
Rodney Rude, Col Elliott and KBW are true Australian comedy royalty. All so original and funny as shit. I agree with @glennoc8585, we need Rodney more than ever these days. The world is a humourless pathetic place at present. How lucky were we to have these aussie comic legends.
They say laughter is the best medicine if that's the case Rude was the best doctor in Australia he gave it out in spades. I showed an Irish friend some rude on you tube he couldn't believe how funny Rodney was now he's back in Ireland and all his mates are hooked on Rude funniest comedian on the planet and me Irish mate definitely agreed the best of the best😆😅🤣😂👁👀
Bret Z lol you just have to know how to play the governments game,once you have that down pat then you can do and say as you like. I do it daily,say what i want,do what i want "aslong as their in no injured party and i dont steal...dont pay their bullshit tax and i invoice the government everytime they want to contract with me...so your comment is irrelevant mate.
we don't have the KKK or Westboro Baptist Church hiding being "free speech" to get away with hate speech either mate. I agree with free speech, but I also agree we need to distinguish against hate speech ... as with everything in life, we need to treat everything on their own individual merits. I mean we don't just allow everyone to drive on the roads at whatever speed they want -- we have limits. Likewise we don't let people drive if they've had too much to drink. It's all about BALANCE, and COMMON SENSE, but if you have a law that says "_EVERYTHING IS ACCEPTABLE_" ... you have already failed.
It's also easy to pretend that criticism of any group or person is also hate speech as well, even though that group or person may be in fact abusing whatever privileges have been handed to them. I think we need to do away with the concept of hate speech altogether. It's strikes me as childish. It's for pussies who can't deal with the messy complexity of life.
Good on ya Rodney iv been a fan for years I first herd him 1985 me and a few mates were smashed on pot we couldn't stop laughing.keep up the good shit Rodney. Rood.
I was a well-known street performer in Adelaide , often making headlines for trying to improve rights of performers but making police jokes put me in a similar situation .
RODNEY is Australian Royalty...a Legend ,the one and only.
Thanks mate 😁
Only those who don't have a sense of humour or who are over sensitive cunts won't laugh at Rodney Rude, his jokes are funny

@@justynthyme And everyone who tried to shoot him down at his shows ended up with Foot in their Mouth disease. He had an answer for Everything.

when australia was at its best,love it
If only we had a million more of Rodney Rude in 2023 what a awakening it would be.

I've listened to Rodney Rude ever since I was 15', now I'm almost 25 and I still think he is hilarious.
15? better late than never!
Thanks Dave, i am a huge fan of Rodney Rude!
it's definitely extra fun hearing him for the first time in your early teens
i haven't really heard much of rude its been years i always thought he was funny but watching this video makes me think he is also quite smart too

That's to be expected. He is in elite company.
Saw him last night, he's a McFucken legend!

Rod was our old neighbour in Jamberoo. Great bloke.
They say laughter is the best medicine if that's the case Rude was the best doctor in Australia he gave it out in spades. I showed an Irish friend some rude on you tube he couldn't believe how funny Rodney was now he's back in Ireland and all his mates are hooked on Rude funniest comedian on the planet and me Irish mate definitely agreed the best of the best😆😅🤣😂👁👀
Irish will definitely be able to appreciate Rude 👍
Let's not kid ourselves, australia doesn't have real free speech.
piss off with that piss poor spirit
It's not a "spirit". It's a fact. Australia and the UK, as well as many EU nations, are glorified fascists with better branding today.
Bret Z lol you just have to know how to play the governments game,once you have that down pat then you can do and say as you like. I do it daily,say what i want,do what i want "aslong as their in no injured party and i dont steal...dont pay their bullshit tax and i invoice the government everytime they want to contract with me...so your comment is irrelevant mate.
we don't have the KKK or Westboro Baptist Church hiding being "free speech" to get away with hate speech either mate. I agree with free speech, but I also agree we need to distinguish against hate speech ... as with everything in life, we need to treat everything on their own individual merits. I mean we don't just allow everyone to drive on the roads at whatever speed they want -- we have limits. Likewise we don't let people drive if they've had too much to drink. It's all about BALANCE, and COMMON SENSE, but if you have a law that says "_EVERYTHING IS ACCEPTABLE_" ... you have already failed.
It's also easy to pretend that criticism of any group or person is also hate speech as well, even though that group or person may be in fact abusing whatever privileges have been handed to them.
I think we need to do away with the concept of hate speech altogether. It's strikes me as childish. It's for pussies who can't deal with the messy complexity of life.
Good on ya Rodney iv been a fan for years I first herd him 1985 me and a few mates were smashed on pot we couldn't stop laughing.keep up the good shit Rodney. Rood.
Eric Bana is so great with the narration too.
MY favourite is "Hello John" (the John Laws song)
Compared to the uptight hateful gender focused bs we get today , Rodney is real , alive, and brought laughs across the country when we needed it.
I was a well-known street performer in Adelaide , often making headlines for trying to improve rights of performers but making police jokes put me in a similar situation .
He talks serious and I still smile....😂
