@@irondragonmaiden Well then I guess that means you should be admiring me as well... Because I can hold a grudge forever! Matter fact, I already hold several.
@Aaron Friedman He's genuinely hilarious. Comedy is subjective of course, but try out some of his other stuff before you decide. It's not all slow-burn material like this was.
@@floraf01 No, but like Acaster's comedy is kind of the unspoken "didn't really happen but funny enough anyway" stories, whereas Johnson's actually happen, you can tell
As Josh is becoming more polished in his routines we’re watching one of the great ones in the making. And I’m enjoying every bit of it! Keep it up Josh!!
He’s more magnetic and natural of a story teller than almost any I’ve seen. This is presented by Trevor Noah but I’ve seen most of his stuff and this guy could be easily as big as Trevor(not that trevor Noah isnt one of the greatest comedians of our day and doesn’t deserve how successful he has been). He brings you into the story and you enjoy it the entire time, even at that parts that aren’t intended to bring out a laugh. We need more of this!
No way I just randomly thought about this guy after not watching any of his stand up for months, then look him up and see theres a new clip uploaded just an hour ago.
Usually when people tell stories of people coming together to pay for someone's healthcare it's meant to be heartwarming, I'm glad he didn't do that and first explained how flawed we are in this country when it comes to healthcare, it isn't heartwarming that we live in a society that refuses to move to a universal single-payer system, it's sad.
Exactly! Making fun of the “pull yourself up by your bootstraps” myth was so perfect. Kids shouldn’t have to sell lemonade to afford the right to live.
@@comeberza I'm not expecting it to be magical, we have plenty of public services here that aren't perfect and are even pretty flawed but there's no way in hell we'd give them up because the alternative would be barbaric. We currently have a barbaric healthcare "system" in the US, it's about time we catch up with everyone else in regards to healthcare.
Thinking of single payer as the only option inhibits change. Single payer is radical, very hard to get right, and tends to have a lot of flaws. Compare it to the healthcare systems of countries like the UK, Germany or Israel - all highly regarded and effective systems, with universal coverage, which would be easier to implement politically as well as more effective than single payer.
Ok, this is the first time that I seriously don't know if it's a true story! Usually I always assume that what comedians say is BS but in this case he made me feel like it's so incredible that is true 🤔🤔🤔
@@adrianaduke9897 I wanted to check this as well, but then figured he might be slightly off. Valentines of 2009 was in fact on a Saturday, so who knows
Love the outfit and crown of glory….He is giving me the 70s, Black Power, Royalty. Kudos to you @joshjohnson. Thank you for sharing your take on life events in comedy, your delivery is so thought provoking…Great Job…..I have watched your new stuff, so now Im digging through the proverbial crates….still very delighted….👑
Nicely delivered! It came off as like a sermon or a lecture but it was captivating and cleanly led to the punchlines. Also a hilarious reminder that we can be that charming and that cruel on the interwebs.
With that afro and afro inspired top he's wearing I'm get MJ when he was in Jackson 5 vibes. This Set was sensational I truly enjoy Josh's storytelling and delivery of his jokes. More of this!
1:50 are child soldier factories even that efficient? You need 9 months just to get a new baby, let alone get them into soldiering shape. Child soldier factory levels of efficiency for lemonade would actually be the exact opposite of what you need.
What a wonderful delight 😊...! Fresh, Young and Pretty Handsome!!! 😍 You got it all. You will go far...! My first time seeing you on The Daily Show, so I had to follow you...! Great Talent!👍 See you in the FUTURE!!!😄😆😅🤣😂😊 FAN #(Hashtag)
“MUR-DERER” bruh 😂😂💀
4:50
sorry I hardly know her
"She married one. And we honestly don't know if that's still part of it."
😂😂😂💀
You have to admire someone who can still hold a grudge decades after the fact
@@irondragonmaiden Well then I guess that means you should be admiring me as well... Because I can hold a grudge forever! Matter fact, I already hold several.
@@mr.lostrythm7876 How weird is it that i'm also proud of this...
i feel like thats a poor mindset but ok
@@SamSamEym Actually, I take that back! Some events transpired in my life that forever changed me...
He is an excellent public speaker. I was hanging on every word.
Oh he's got some jokes!
@Aaron Friedman He's genuinely hilarious. Comedy is subjective of course, but try out some of his other stuff before you decide. It's not all slow-burn material like this was.
Where’s the punch line? Hit different.
Josh Johnson for president
I got the words out of my mouth.
that was a whole story and I was invested in every second lmao. Definitely can't wait to see more of his stand up
Definitely recommend his podcast, the Josh Johnson show. It's full of him telling stories
@@andrewtachman8252
He has a podcast? Im so going to binge listen to it now!
Check out Catfishing the KKK
@@andrewtachman8252 thanks for the nice recommendation!
Love the Ryuji pfp
"You got me good in high school, now I'm your mom" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
died laughing at that part
Bro I was having difficulty breathing
It got me really intense 🤣🤣
It was a long con to get them grounded
Yes, that is what he said. Thank you for repeating it.
The silence in the crowd while he's telling the story says it all - he's a wonderful speaker 🔥
The funniest ex gang member in comedy 💯
😂
And surprisingly not the only one! Have you heard of James Acaster? He's good too (imho). He also has a bit about being in a gang.
@@floraf01 No, but like Acaster's comedy is kind of the unspoken "didn't really happen but funny enough anyway" stories, whereas Johnson's actually happen, you can tell
@@floraf01 NW6 Gang!
Got kicked out of the gang...for being too nice.
We not gonna talk how Josh catfished the KKK via the Internet as a child?
I love that story 😂😂😂 dale is still wondering where his lil buddy went
Oh dude! I didn't recognize him with the hair!
Spoken so calmly
🤣🤣🤣
He almost went blackkklansman with that
His highschool friends were menaces to society😂😂😂😂
"You got me good in highschool and now I'm your mom" 😂😂😂😂
As Josh is becoming more polished in his routines we’re watching one of the great ones in the making. And I’m enjoying every bit of it! Keep it up Josh!!
This is a fairly poorly told story that wasn't that interesting or funny. His old work is much better. Sadly he seems to have forgotten to make jokes.
He’s more magnetic and natural of a story teller than almost any I’ve seen. This is presented by Trevor Noah but I’ve seen most of his stuff and this guy could be easily as big as Trevor(not that trevor Noah isnt one of the greatest comedians of our day and doesn’t deserve how successful he has been).

Trevor Noah is an amazing comedian, both rehearsed and extemporaneous. He's at the top of the field.
You may also like Jim Jeffries and Louis C.K then. They are also excelent story tellers. Josh is good, but those guys are masters of the craft
@Trinity M read up on the whole situation then come back and say that
@@Canny-Octopushe’s never once made me laugh, but josh cracks me up constantly
No way I just randomly thought about this guy after not watching any of his stand up for months, then look him up and see theres a new clip uploaded just an hour ago.
you're on the right wavelength
There are a few new ones as of late actually!
Sounds like phone is pranking u
the almighty Algorithm knows all
I did the exact same thing!!!

Yes, but I also don't want the politicians deciding which treatments and procedures will be covered and which ones won't. That's a scary idea to me.
I knew as soon as he said they sent her to a funeral home what the prank was going to be, but this delivery was still fantastic
Young, very handsome, and beautiful voice, big smile and groovy baufont fro...what more can you ask for in a budding comedic performer👍
Actually funny jokes
Chill we here for the comedy 😂
I’m ready for the whole routine-no more piece-by-piece...he’s soooo good!
That's insanely dark/funny. I'm both impressed and appalled lol
Ok, this is the first time that I seriously don't know if it's a true story! Usually I always assume that what comedians say is BS but in this case he made me feel like it's so incredible that is true 🤔🤔🤔
I mean I listen to his podcast and his life is literally just _like_ that
well, he said it happened onsaturday, valentines day, 2008, but valentines day 2008 was a thursday.
@@adrianaduke9897 good detective work!
@@adrianaduke9897 lmao probably wanted to add sound effect with that valentines phrase

Beth is a TRUE savage, this completely took me out.
He was so so.. take too long to get tonthe point.
@@frozzytango9927 Nope, you're just impatient. Find a faster comedian, his timing is on point for the rest of us.
@@frozzytango9927 And jesus christ, never listen to dave chapelle, you'll tell someone he's the worst comedian on earth, then get mur-dered.
I'm not gonna lie, I definitely was not expecting the part where she banged all of their dads and then married one lol
@@lukelyon1781 coz the degeneration young generation of America, no surprise.
The buildup to the punchline was well worth it cause damn was that a crazy plot twist 😂 this guy is a great story teller

Thank you for sharing your take on life events in comedy, your delivery is so thought provoking…Great Job…..I have watched your new stuff, so now Im digging through the proverbial crates….still very delighted….👑
He's extremely well spoken and a great public speaker. My hats off to you!
LOVE seeing new Josh Johnson! I know all his TH-cam stuff by heart already. I need more. Lol
This is hilarious and educative at the same time. Josh is really a wonderful comedian.
When I tell you, I love Josh. I mean it. I can never not click on his face
Dude has great delivery. I can't wait to see more from him.
Josh is amazing. His delivery and humor are on point. I can't wait to see how his comedy progresses as time goes on.
the look says the Jackson 5 went to Wakanda and I am HERE for it 👏
I just love to listen to him
As advertised, that was really dark. Bonus, that shirt is amazing.
Nicely delivered! It came off as like a sermon or a lecture but it was captivating and cleanly led to the punchlines. Also a hilarious reminder that we can be that charming and that cruel on the interwebs.
Dawg... This guy is something else! He definitely deserves FAR MORE recognition then he has right now. Because this was hilarious!
Josh Johnson is my FAVORITE stand up comedian
With that afro and afro inspired top he's wearing I'm get MJ when he was in Jackson 5 vibes. This Set was sensational I truly enjoy Josh's storytelling and delivery of his jokes. More of this!
I thought he reminded me of kid Rock. Very similar looking.
Nah jk but you're racist for comparing black people with others just cause xyz
@@Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa669 But I am black 😂 but get what you mean lol
I had no idea where that last story was going omfg, I’m still laughing and feel guilty about it
Clearly what we've learned here is that Beth is the best prankster of all time lol
Yes! I love Josh Johnson! Imma go watch this special right now.
🏃🏼♀️
Oh man this was so jacked up but funny as hell
Wow he made friends with a club of budding psychopaths in highschool, glad he didn't end up as a skin suit
Yet
I love Josh Johnson SO MUCH
I saw him live here in Minnesota and a lot of the bits from this special he performed there. It was a great time.
Josh Johnson looks like he just ran from his other job as an extra filming the Michael Jackson Thriller video to do this set. 😂❤ Love his comedy!
I love the way he tells stories 🤣🤣🤣
Great story teller.
You got me good in high school and now I’m your mom 😂
This was GOLD!
lol, I checked and Valentine's Day in 2009 really was on a Saturday. dope
First part sounded like the intro to a TED talk lmao.
7:01 "...That's not all she did."
That is so fuuuccked up 😂😂
Storytelling is amazing and funny ass delivery 🤣
Awesome storyteller.
Bro I knew it was going to be bad but damn. I can’t laugh yet, like wow 😭
Brilliant as always, I love his standup so much. Never a dull moment!
Valentine’s Day was on a Thursday in 2008
My new favorite comedian!!!
why does he look like Michael Jackson in the We Are The World video IF the We Are The World video was shot in 1978?!!! i can't unsee it.
Brilliant guy
Dude has some serious comedic chops….timing, story telling, perspective.
Dude gonna be a monster in the best possible way….
this joke was amazing!
i just watched it twice in a row because of how good of a story it was
Very, very good ! 🤘
Oh my god! this literally took place on my exact birthday!
It almost sounded like he went to school with the impractical jokers lmao
1:50 are child soldier factories even that efficient? You need 9 months just to get a new baby, let alone get them into soldiering shape. Child soldier factory levels of efficiency for lemonade would actually be the exact opposite of what you need.
Can’t get enough of him😭
Dawg this has to be the best prank ever
Valentine’s Day was on a Thursday in 2008.
Ok this is just cray
I was like "12 years ago? You're like 23." Nope he's 31
Valentines Day in 2008 was on a Thursday.
LMAO Go Beth!
Oh no.. oh yes.
Now i wanna see the movie
That airfro on point ☝️
This the only man whose hair line grows as his jokes get better
I need Beth's movie!!!!
"Don't feel bad for Beth."
Gold 😭
He has such a beautiful outfit on. Looks both regal and comfortable!
What a crowd 😖😭
Nigga I thought Michael Jackson was up there telling funnies to people for a split second
This dude: so those high school boys played with those girls emotions and probably traumatized her for life
The audience: lmao
There was zero fat on that joke... perfect.
Love you Josh, but Valentine's day 2008 was a Thursday. It's 2021 now, I googled it while you finished the joke 😂
What a wonderful delight 😊...! Fresh, Young and Pretty Handsome!!! 😍 You got it all. You will go far...! My first time seeing you on The Daily Show, so I had to follow you...! Great Talent!👍 See you in the FUTURE!!!😄😆😅🤣😂😊 FAN #(Hashtag)
Good one 👌
I love him ❤️. I love everything he does!
A comedy set without the crowd laughing just feels like a Ted talk
That is top tier level revenge.
He’s so freaking cute 🥰 I’m in love 😍 lol
Valentine's day on 2008 was a Thursday. Sad 😞
I love Josh
Moral of this story: if you know a Beth, don’t f*ck with her
Well deserved revenge 😂
That was a great story. lmao!
This joke was brilliant 👌
that is the number 1 example of the "yall do too much" statement
Favorite comedian man
“What are you doing, step-Beth?”
Those are some mustache twirling villain teenage girls
