Zack is a master at simple humour, he takes unfunny subjects and adds a subtle twist. This is true comedy that does not need gimmicks or shock value. This guy makes you feel like you are listening to a friend or someone you know. It takes a master to be funny without resorting to crude or disrespectful tactics. Great work Zack!!
Except, he uses a a gimmick in all his stand up. Awkwardness is a gimmick. The piano-combo is a gimmick. That's his schtick. It works for him, but weird to praise him for something he doesn't do.
@@henhenhen19 awkwardness is not quite a gimmick neither is playing the piano. A gimmick is creating a new form of concept which provides the artist with a display or form of entertainment in order to captivate the audience when a band or artist lacks talent. Such as Kiss painting faces and fire blowing, or motley Crew drinking fake JD one stage, or Jimi Hendrix lighting his guitar on fire those where gimmicks which helped capture the audiences attention and to help them remember the show. Playing piano and being awkward are just present the range of talent a star has, by playing music or singing, by being able to mimic various form of human nature this shows a stars versatility. This was only to show how gifted Zack is.
The Mexican embassy to North Korea is nonresident and based in Seoul. There are not many legitimate business relationships between Mexico and North Korea which I could find, so I don't see much to suggest that there is any reason to believe there are any Mexican residents looking after business interests in North Korea. However there are some suggestions of ties between DPRK and Mexican drug cartels, so one might speculate that there could be a few "unofficial" ambassadors representing cartels in North Korea. But aside from illicit ties, I have doubts that there are any expatriate Mexican residents in North Korea - a nation which takes the idea of a race-nation, Minjok, to extremes including forced abortion of "mixed race" pregnancies and considerable propaganda claiming North Koreans to be the "cleanest" race, of pure Han descent etc etc. As a nation marked with extreme xenophobia, ideas of racial purity that make Nazis look liberal, and suppression of anyone who deviates from amazingly strict standards of "normal" (people over a certain height are deported to what amounts to penal colonies, and god help those with physical deformity), the SNL joke alluding to the rarity of Mexicans in North Korea seems pretty much dead-on.
his music is so beautiful and relaxing that i cant even make myself to listen what he says im just listening for music. i didnt knew he can play piano and so good. well, but his humor was weaker than i was expecting, and that relaxing music takes away a little bit from hard laughing and funny atmosphere which shouldnt be like that in stand up right? but he said its not a stand up, and he just makes comfortable peaceful bar atmosphere, in which i would REALLY LOVE to be in right now. Zack is a genius, i wonder if he improvises in piano or he just learned a lot of different nice songs.
Whether he’s improvising, I don’t know, but bits and pieces of his various performances sound similar to me. However I’m not sure how much he can really play on the piano because all he plays during his comedy monologues is the black keys. They make it easy to play something melodic sounding without ever hitting a “sour” note.
@@missundies im chill and i just like to analyse some interesting things or people in my life, you know like old people do when they are analysing and thinking about their life and shit haha. but im chill so stfu u dont know me :)
I thought that as well, but the crowd not being able to be comfortable without laughing for 2 seconds even if there's nothing to laugh about, threw me the fuck off.
Imagine your car breaks down on a backroad and you’re waiting in the rain for three hours. Finally someone turns on their hazards and stops to help. A disheveled short smelly figure wobbles up to you. You whisper, “G-g- Galifianakis?” The man does not reply. He simply opens the trunk of his car to reveal a microphone and a small Casio keyboard. He plays a sweet melodic tune for a moment and then says,” I’d just like to talk about myself now. I am very well read.”
From ChatGPT: How many Mexicans live in north Korea There is no official data on the number of Mexicans living in North Korea, but it is believed to be a very small number, if any at all. North Korea is one of the most isolated countries in the world, and its government places strict controls on who is allowed to enter and live in the country. There is little information available on the number of foreign residents in North Korea, and it is likely that the number of Mexicans living there is very low.
I loved Zach when he was a tortured alcoholic. Now he's a sober celebrity he's no longer funny. There's a life lesson there somewhere but I don't know what it is.
I love his little smiles that shows he's pleased with himself. He is a master at comedy.

Nothing wrong with crude humour as long as its funny

How's the weather ? Going to be moist down south with a chance of sex in a bathroom?

I was watching this as it aired and that's all I remember wanting.
Zach Galifianakis is literally an awesome charismatic actor in this Live show of the world. 😃
He needs to host again

Zach is in a class all by himself…. and on the edge of genius.
its only the edge cos there's no genius in being goofy
This still holds up all these years later 😆
Wow Zack can really play piano.
At least I think he’s playing, if so good job Zack!!
Not too difficult. Just use the black keys.
@@charmerci hey hey, the african-american keys
@@friedchicken1 very Norm Macdonald of you

It's so stupid that it's really funny
I'm so disappointed he didn't do the hoobastank as the musical guest joke again!
I'm very well-read lmao
That doesn't work as well in writing.
@@missundies It doesn't work at all, actually.
@@Abrahamhamham that’s what’s funny abt it 💀
Funny how Schumer stole a joke used on SNL
Zack is the GOAT...
I get EXACTLY that, often "has anyone ever told you that you look like Zach Galifianakis ... no offence"
Such a funny little man.
@RL R
His physical comedey aswell as witty humor.
Great material, but it's not a real Zack G monologue if he's not telling us that Hoobastank is here.
rare talent!
‘i’m very well read’ should not be that funny 😭😭
Damn i needed that laugh
Love Zach, I don’t think he knows How much. Yum.
This is amazing too watch when you're high
I thought that as well, but the crowd not being able to be comfortable without laughing for 2 seconds even if there's nothing to laugh about, threw me the fuck off.
That is one reason I have tended to dislike SNL over the years...@@Abrahamhamham
So good!!!
When the audience is laughing before a joke. That's almost as rough as the audience not laughing at all.
Awesomee !!

That would be epic.
Haha, he said charades!
I love this man.
At what age do you tell a highway it was adopted?
@RL L
Mabey it has to do with him being able to peform well in physical comedey aswell as witty humor.
best ever ahah
4:18 The music. Original or not ?
+RL R
His physical and witty humor.
I thought Hoobastank was the musical guest that night
I’m sad he didn’t say Hoobastank was here
Like, that was bad, but still good

Zach Galifianakis is Greek :)
+Swole Diglett έλεος εσύ ανθέλληνα
+proneer son actually he is greek.
Γεώργιος Παπακαλιάτης
He already said that. And secondly he's not even fully Greek if I'm not mistaken. lol From what I remember he's only half.
He's greek you morons !!
No sound
not very good. was expecting a lot better
Yeah, that was not very good. Not bad but... not good.
I loved Zach when he was a tortured alcoholic. Now he's a sober celebrity he's no longer funny. There's a life lesson there somewhere but I don't know what it is.
I remembered he had a line about imagine dragons. But it's not here.
