    norm was the first “celebrity” that i actually cried a bit when i found out he died… he never really felt like a celebrity but more like one of us regular guys that snuck in and tricked the industry, which made him that much funnier! like watching a friend sneak into a fancy restaurant with a stolen blazer and say all the french menu items all wrong and you’d just laugh… such a cool guy.

    That makes a lot of sense, Norm MacDonald had crippling stage fright, but I think he overcame it by the realization that he could never please everyone in the audience, so he just focused in on what he thought was funny and hoped for the best. After a while he got some positive feedback from prominent voices in the industry (Like David Letterman & Conan O'Brian) but he was always the comedian's comedian and something of an acquired taste, at least within his lifetime.

      @@DarkCyberElf what ai narrator ? Are you referring to the excerpts from his audiobook ?
      or the bits like 3:12 ? Didn't even notice, and even so, they're such a small part of the overall video. It's not that easy to make a video like this, his editing timeline was packed with radio clips and videos, it isn't a small feat. And the way the clips were arranged was honestly one of the best, and it included many stuff I've never seen even though I consume Norm content for close to a decade now.
      So, even if it uses AI voice, just because he can't afford a proper mic / doesn't like his voice / doesn't grasp spoken English well enough, this doesn't make the final work any less valuable.

    Norm is one of those guys who could never find a mainstream audience, but because of friends he made along the way, and because his whole persona became a bit of cult hit in it's own right, he kept getting stuff here and there. Helps that he seemed to love working and just love being a comedian. I think he finally found a good place to be via his podcast. If he was still around, he'd still be doing that thing. Highly recommend it to any Norm fans.

    Craig Ferguson is someone to do a deep-dive on that really deserves it.
    He’s an unbelievable standup, terrific author, he’s written, starred and directed award-winning films, Don Rickles called him the next Johnny Carson. His Late Late Show is still such a treasure.
    All that after immigrating to the US and recovering from severe alcoholism and substance abuse. He even did theatre in London as Brad Majors in Rocky Horror Picture Show. There’s not a single facet of comedy he lacks in.

    God bless Norm. He was such an uncompromising, great original comedian, and the best story-joke-teller of all time.
    He could find a punchline in a small detail of an aside in a yarn.
    He could make the absurd seem real, and reality seem even more absurd and funny.
    What a legend.

    It fascinates me how much good sense of humor correlates with intelligence. Best comedians, comedy writes, authors of satirical prose are basically philosophers, just to mention Norm, George Carlin, Terry Pratchett. When I engage with their work, it's like hearing a lecture on how to pay attention.

  • @nin114

    I think what keeps most of the world so in awe of Norm is that I think he is a good representation of classic rural Canadian humor, which is not very well known outside of Canada. It is cold, wet and miserable, and we aren't burdened with the overly enthusiastic American exceptionalism/ positivity complex (well...at least East of Ontario). People are just funny in a very honest, old fashioned, self deprecating, dry but generally good natured way. Not saying every Canadian is as funny as Norm! But I think anyone living in these windswept wastes knows one or two fellas that remind you of Norm. It is not surprising at all that we was never accepted by broad audiences. They want Ellen and Jimmy.
