Thanks for the kind words on this (now very old) stand-up set from 2015. If you enjoyed this video, check out my latest project here: th-cam.com/video/qAcB20aBATo/w-d-xo.html
The 1st time I heard your Jimmy Fallon impression, I spit out my coffee. It was so good and unexpected lol. Still makes me giggle. You're very talented
I'm only to the Matthew McCaughnehey GPS bit, but don't know which impression is better. They are both great lol. "Sometimes you gotta put your car in reverse it you wanna move forward" got me lol
I'm sorry but Morgan Freeman is King of the GPS! LOL Can you imagine how the Prequel Trilogy would have turned out if Morgan Freeman had been cast as Mace Windu instead of Samuel Jackson? He would have distracted the Sith and Anakin with his voice!
Josh, you're among the top of my list of best impressionist. Up there with Frank Caliendo, Jay Pharoah, Godfrey, and Kevin Spacey. Awesome stuff. The synergy you had with Craig made the Late Late Show such a golden nugget amongst late night tv shows.
How does this man not have his own show? How is this man not in more voice roles with animation companies? Josh has got so much talent that he needs to star in more movies. Disney make it happen!!!
I remember the nights Drew Carey was the guest host. It was so bizarre seeing him do it in the old studio, so soon after the show had ended. I kept waiting for the camera to pan over to Geoff or to Secretariat.
@@soscobra Craig left before Christmas, Corden took over at the end of March. From January through March they had a handful of guest hosts, some of whom used Craig's studio, some of whom did not. I think there were nine total. Offhand I can remember Drew Carey, Sean Hayes, Kunal Nayyar, and the late Regis Philbin.
Those impressions are unreal. I did not expect that Freeman voice to come out of your mouth. Super talented man. I got to be in the audience for one of the last shows w Ferguson and had one of the best times of my life. I laughed so hard. I look forward to your special. Keep up the great work. You're awesome. :)
This is what he was born to do. Some people are just naturally gifted at certain talents like a baseball pitcher, a football quarterback, a race car driver, a singer, a guitar player etc. Ferguson is at improv comedy interacting with guests and audience members. Josh and Craig working together on the show were gold and having the gay skeleton robot in the show was genius. imho.
Great to see Josh. He and Craig got me through an incredibly hard time in my life by making me laugh so much on this show. Thanks a lot bro. Also, to see the stable door closed is sad. Like losing an old friend. Glad they are still working together on the road. I will do my best to see them live sometime.
Small world. Josh was inspired by Drew who had his own show which Craig was one of the cast members. Then both Craig and Drew moved to CBS and then Josh voiced Geoff on the Late Late Show with Craig. Wow. What a small world.
Alexander James-Palmer waaaaaaa dude take it easy you just blew my mind away but now that I think about it didn't craig do a sit com before the drew show
Do more video shorts, flood TH-cam with clips from all your stuff so far, just seems like not enough people know about you...never give up. You're that good it must intimidate some other acts, your impressions are next level. @@thejrtshow
Outstanding Josh! You are brilliant in every context and one of the top impressionists ever! Hope I can see you live with Craig very soon! Keep on slaying!!!
You do Morgan Freeman better than Morgan Freeman himself. You have every exact little quirk and gesture in his voice that he does. I am in amazement everytime I hear it. I do some voices as well, which include, Herman, Lily and Grandpa Munster. And when I do them, I put in every enuncitaion, right down to the sound of their teeth. It's hard to get a voice just right, but when it clicks, you got it and brother YOU GOT IT!!!!! I would be so honored to meet and work with you some day.
Morgan Freeman spent his life honing his accent, inflections, phrasing, articulations, which words to emphasize, which parts of words to emphasize, to draw a desired emotional reaction from the listener. And a wisecracking comic comes along and just imitates it. LOL
This is great Josh. Funny as always & gifted too. Use to when 9pm would roll around I'd say "We'll it's been a shitty day & another coming tomorrow. But hey, I think I'll stay up awhile longer to watch Craig & Geoff, that should make it better". But now at 8-8:30pm I think "Nothing left to do but go to sleep & face another fukup day tomorrow". You two guy's Always made me laugh no matter how bad things were. What I'm saying in short is: Thanks Josh & Craig for the good times. And for helping me through some bad times. I miss ya'll & wish ya'll the best of luck in everything you two do.
you might be the best impressionist i have ever seen, keep it up. i love your George Lucas, Robert Downey Jr., and Morgan Freeman impressions the best. i always listen to the prank call you did on George Takei on the Howard Stern show
I just learned today we're both from Cleveland, Josh! This was so cool to see you with Drew. I've been watching old episodes of you and Craig all day. Love your work man, Cleveland DOES rock!!
@@thejrtshow You are truly an entertainer! One of my favorite bits is your Arnold with George Takei. It's one thing to do impressions... it's an entirely different skill set to be able to BECOME the character! You are the man!
This guy is awesome. And I'm not using awesome in the obligatory sense. He truly is awe inspiring. I loved being entertained by him on The Late Late Show, and in the last few days on Periscope. The only thing missing from his repertoire is an Alan Rickman impression. I asked him about this lack on twitter once, and he very kindly sent me a link to some funny preacher stuff...I hope Hollywood gets off its ass and gives him a show soon!
Yeah as a diehard who has listened to every podcast and watched every video, this was all familiar material for me. But I played it for some friends and they laughed their asses off. So that's a good thing.
My mom went to high school in Cleveland with Drew. She said he had the same glass frames back then as he did when he became famous. I think now he dropped the big black dorky frames because of the price is right.

Careful, Icarus.
Are we ever going to hear the rest of that Burl Ives story Geoff had? 🤣
@@zachm2331 yeah since we had to hear about Wilford getting salad at the salad bar lol
Anthony Leyva th-cam.com/video/qAcB20aBATo/w-d-xo.html
Zach M th-cam.com/video/qAcB20aBATo/w-d-xo.html
An underrated comedian that needs more appreciation. Funny man!
Josh gave me some of the hardest laughs i can remember as Geoff.
This guy is really good. We miss him and Craig something terrible.
Truer words were never spoken. I keep re-watching those clips on youtube and the two of them just had free wheeling fun together.
The 1st time I heard your Jimmy Fallon impression, I spit out my coffee. It was so good and unexpected lol. Still makes me giggle. You're very talented

Okay, those Morgan Freeman, Robert DeNiro, and Liam Neeson impressions were spot in.
Josh, you're among the top of my list of best impressionist. Up there with Frank Caliendo, Jay Pharoah, Godfrey, and Kevin Spacey. Awesome stuff. The synergy you had with Craig made the Late Late Show such a golden nugget amongst late night tv shows.
Funny stuff
Careful Icarus
But father, I want to fly into the sun
+Music Raptor ...involving gravity.
+Teru Kage yes :P
+Ahkando Is that cold father?
+Taurusilver Is that *code*, father?

Was this something they did until Corden took over the show?

Creepy, wasn't it.
Feh... Damn it Craig.
NGL, the big April Fool's switch where Drew hosted TLLS and Craig took over The Lrice is Right for a few days was awesome. They both did great.
Wish he was on TV every night again. He's great!
Those impressions are unreal. I did not expect that Freeman voice to come out of your mouth. Super talented man.

Balls!
I have no criticism, constructive or otherwise. You Sir, have amazing skill, and no shortage of sour cream! :)
I love this man more than existence itself. God bless you Josh Robert Thompson. You belong to us. 😘😘😘😘
Yes.....His impressions, and his stand up are awesome. But his timing and off the cuff remarks are also a measure of his great talent.

The whole universe is a baked potato, and you're out of sour cream

waaaaaaa dude take it easy you just blew my mind away
but now that I think about it didn't craig do a sit com before the drew show
Loved it, Josh. Can't wait for your special. All the best to you, man.
What a great appearance Josh!! 👍
He's never gotten the recognition he deserves.😢
I gave it a good try though!
@@thejrtshow You need to be a household name Josh! You have more talent in your pinky than most people do in their whole body .
Do more video shorts, flood TH-cam with clips from all your stuff so far, just seems like not enough people know about you...never give up. You're that good it must intimidate some other acts, your impressions are next level. @@thejrtshow
@@thejrtshow can you threaten my mother as Schwarzenegger pls
That was absolutely hilarious and really well written.
Holy shit his impressions are SPOT on.
Fantastic, dude. Hope to see you on air a lot more down the road.
Been a fan for a long time!!!!
Outstanding Josh! You are brilliant in every context and one of the top impressionists ever! Hope I can see you live with Craig very soon! Keep on slaying!!!

If you haven't seen the Craig Ferguson show when Morgan Freeman was on , you need to see it.
Morgan Freeman spent his life honing his accent, inflections, phrasing, articulations, which words to emphasize, which parts of words to emphasize, to draw a desired emotional reaction from the listener. And a wisecracking comic comes along and just imitates it. LOL
That Liam Neeson impression had me in tears!!!
Awesome, great to see you and Craig do more of the things you want to do and enjoy. Can't wait to see your show
You were an amazing part of an amazing late night talk show. Thanks for all the laughs!
undeny come watch him almost daily on the #Periscope App.
This is great Josh. Funny as always & gifted too. Use to when 9pm would roll around I'd say "We'll it's been a shitty day & another coming tomorrow.

Man the impressions are so spot on, excellent... The Liam Neeson was perfection. Looking forward to more, and I wish this spot was longer.
Frederick Zilfo come watch him almost daily on the #Periscope App.
you might be the best impressionist i have ever seen, keep it up. i love your George Lucas, Robert Downey Jr., and Morgan Freeman impressions the best. i always listen to the prank call you did on George Takei on the Howard Stern show
Greatest ever with impressions: Liam Neeson, Morgan Freeman, Robert De Niro, Matthew macuanahay. He can do no wrong.
Honestly out of all the impressionist, your my favorite, your the best
This is very very good, you really are so talented, I wish you nothing but the great success you deserve
Wow....where have I been that I missed this!? Superb!!
Hey Josh. Just saying hi again. Thank you for the great memories.
Any time! I'm still alive though
@@thejrtshow That's good to hear! Being alive is nice sometimes!
Crazy how Drew Carey was a huge inspiration and Josh ended up working with Craig who was closely connected to Drew and then this happened. Awesome
He’s brilliant.
HOLY FUCKING SHIT drew carey you became half the man you were
in size
God damn that Dr. Oz bit was gold. Everyone should have been utterly dying of laughter like I was!
Amazing how all these clips just showed up in my TH-cam. Amazing!
I just learned today we're both from Cleveland, Josh! This was so cool to see you with Drew. I've been watching old episodes of you and Craig all day. Love your work man, Cleveland DOES rock!!
Man you're so talented and hilarious. I absolutely loved your weird and improvised conversations with Craig. All the best from India..
How the heck is JRT not on SNL? He would be amazing!!!
I definitely tried!
@@thejrtshow You are truly an entertainer! One of my favorite bits is your Arnold with George Takei. It's one thing to do impressions... it's an entirely different skill set to be able to BECOME the character! You are the man!
Great job!
Outstanding - 10/10 - no splash - all you can eat - Geoff Peterson for mayor 2022
Loved it, Josh. Smoothly delivered too. Big fan. Just listened to your podcasts as well.
Bruno Alcouffe he also broadcasts almost daily on the #Periscope App.
Love your work, JRT. You keep doing your thing. :o)
Great stand up,you nailed it center stage....
You are seriously THE MOST HANDSOME MAN EVER.
omg!! he really did look like Robert DeNiro!!
JRT, you are awesome and ROCK!!! miss you!!
Saw Josh perform live in Boston last week and he's even funnier in person. Especially without the censors.
This guy is awesome. And I'm not using awesome in the obligatory sense. He truly is awe inspiring. I loved being entertained by him on The Late Late Show, and in the last few days on Periscope.

The man behind the bones!
Awesome Josh, awesome :D I really enjoyed that.
JRT you're a twisted human being!! And im digging it all
My mom went to high school in Cleveland with Drew. She said he had the same glass frames back then as he did when he became famous. I think now he dropped the big black dorky frames because of the price is right.
2:40 "I had to do it, I had to"
lmao love it
This guy is awesome!
So impressive, my god!
you are extremely talented bro!
Loved this!
JRT looks a lot like David Arquette. Man, what a talent. Check out his Robert Downey Jr.
Tell Craig we need the dynamic duo back we miss you guys so much....
angel lopez come watch him almost daily on the #Periscope App.
JRT you're amazing
Fantastic routine. Robert De Niro impression was spot on.
'' and you my friend are running low on sour cream'' LOL
This guy is awesome! He was great on TLLS doing improv!
I just realized how strange this show is. When Craig was on it was just so fun I didn't think of it as odd. Lol
on this end, it seems like all the other shows are kinda strange now.
I don't think I've seen anyone this good.
He's just too good!
OMG Josh is sooo multi MULTI TALENTED!! 🎶🎤😆"Noooobody dooooes it betterrrrr!!"🎶 😬🙌🏻😘
Who’s here after SEN LIVE!
Meesir
Hearing Drew laugh in the background takes me back to WLIIA
Doing a great _visual_ impression of the Tenth Dr Who there!
I"m felling ya, Josh: that Corden guy stole your show.
i cant believe it's been this long... dang
The Robert De Niro squint (because you've actually just taken your glasses off and can't see well) was a very well-crafted joke.
WHY HAVEN'T I SEEN THIS BEFORE? Awesome and hilarious!
And this was your FIRST? Like a pro from the get go
Your Morgan Freeman is absolutely PERFECT... amazing career... we miss you!
Love it!!! Reppin Cleveland!!!
Subscribed instantly. 👍
Gold!
Great stuff! I know you as fake Arnold on the Stern Show and you are hilarious at that! I'm now a fan of JRT now too.
🤣🤣 so good! RIP GEOFF
top notch ! jrt is serious talent, support his channel and share! and share, ,....
u r welcome, i am now trying to squint and breath like de niro, and crack myself up doing it everyday!!
It's hilarious! But i got the idea of the GPS (and forgive me if i'm wrong) from Jim Breuer, but both things are still hysterical!!
So good!!!
You're so awesome!
I cannot believe i hadn't subscribed so far!!! You are ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, but damn, i miss Miriam!!
