"We're rich. We don't have to deal with disease."
some things never change
When the plague starts affecting the money bags, you know it's bad.
@Winter Wonder Ah, yes. But they're more able to afford better health care and are more able to reduce exposure in the first place because they're not living paycheck-to-paycheck and can stay home.
Yes, the rich can of course contract illness. But the deck is certainly stacked in their favor, especially when compared to the poor.
@Winter Wonder less than poor people, why is that in doubt? Of course it's less.
Winter Wonder well seeing how many RICH people are completely asymptomatic and getting tests when poor people aren’t... or how all the RICH people are gettin put up in the best hospitals and diverting unnecessary and disproportionate amounts of equipment from the less wealthy areas... or how RICH people aren’t being forced to drink from the unclean water that the CDC now thinks can drastically increase your chances of getting sick... or how RICH people are now taking their private jets to disaster bunkers to live out the next several months with no contact with us commoners....
We can have a conversation about all the celebrities being tested for corona with minimal symptoms while regular people who can’t breathe but aren’t dying don’t get tested... until it’s too late
Dr. Soper is the most passionate sanitation engineer who ever lived. I love how he whooshes in and out of frame.
Wash your damn hands. This episode is calling yall out
You too. Bust down Tatiana
Coronavirus
Which doesn't stop the Corona virus from infecting you if you are within 6 feet of an infected person just breathing toward you. In fact, now research is showing that the virus remains airborne even AFTER an infected person has moved away from you. Google that. Washing your hands is key, also, but so is staying away from other people who don't show symptoms. And 25% of infected people do NOT show symptoms.
San Francisco sure but like in general if you’re alive you should wash your hands WELL multiple times a day some people are so greasy 🤢
Corona Chan you mean
I absolutely love how the dog reacted at 7:23 to her dropping dead and then continued to be unfazed as the rest of the acting played out. Truly remarkable.
Whoever played the doctor had impeccable lip syncing.
pretty sure it's the guy from date movie
Yes! And he really do great! Totes thinking he might be a bit underrated now.
Looks like Adam Campbell
Lemonwedge I said the same thing 😂
@@alexc9985 YES 👍🏼
this is one of the funniests
"I CAUGHT YOU FECAL MATTER HANDED, MARY"
I wish she had said “Brown-handed”. THAT would’ve been even funnier.
The guy who plays the doctor deserves an Oscar. Also add pinky-swearing to the list of things that are permanently ruined for me now lol.
He was on Kimmy Schmidt and Harper's Island, he's always great
@@brendanfoehr5086 who was he on Kimmie Schmidt? What's his name? He's brilliant here.
maryinsanfrancisco I don’t know what his name is, but he’s the British “Daddy’s Boy” guy who’s in love with Kimmy
@@brendanfoehr5086 OMG that's who he is, thank you!
He was also on “Great News” and hilarious on that, too. I’m mad that show only got 2 seasons.
“Who’s the cook here, bABy? WhOO’S THE COOK?!” 😂😂
Potato_Chii it’s me!
I see you Mary Mallon
I see you
I see you
I see you
Gabriele GHUT that was very ominous 😳
😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
He bust down the door with his foot as a power move..
Vanilla ice cream with peaches actually sounds good as hell.
Don't forget the shit sprinkles
Harold Owens 🤣🤣🤣
Present day that Ben & Mary’s flavor would be “Corona Cobbler”
Ever had peach cobbler pie topped with vanilla ice cream? It’s amazing.
Try making s fresh peach milkshake, it'll blow your mind!
@Filthy Fingers of Fury How in the world can you dislike mangoes? O.O Is it the texture?
This is the funniest Drunk History I’ve seen so far. The Doctor and Mary’s acting is so on point.
to me, it´s actually a horror story scarier than all the Saw movies
Did she really change her name to Mary BROWN? Of all colours, Mary, damn it
😂😂😂
It’s funnier when you see the profile picture
LMAO 😂
Typhoid Mary changed her name when she changed jobs so she wouldn’t get caught
Her last name is close to "maillon", which means "link" in French. How appropriate!
"I'm Mary Mallon, I'm Irish, I'm proud AND I'M HERE TO COOK,BABY!" GOSH I love this part!
I don’t know what it is between the line delivery or the way the Actress for Mary did that but it’s my favorite
Typhoid Mary came back as Corona Carrie lol😫
😂😂😂😂😂
🤣🤧🤧
Corona Caren
Corina Corona
Corona Karen
I love this narrator. She's got the vim, the variety and most of all, the vibrant vivacious vocabulary of a stand up comedian all while drunk off her rockers. That's a performer.
Vim but no vigor???
This lady can string some great words together while drunk. Informative, educational, intrepid and lucid. Very good, young person, very good.
Intrepid?? Really??
Damn bro you’re so intelligent
Tyler Lemm You are more intelligent than me for understanding how intelligent I am. It’s a mystery to most, but you (“clairvoyance”..I was trying to remember that word earlier today, damn it! Always too late. Hopefully they understood what I was trying to express) knew right away. That proves you are more intelligent than I am.
David Belcher Not to your liking, or a word that doesn’t fit, or something else? From the context of your comment, it is impossible to know your intent.
@@Gabriel_Moline shut up pretentious nerd
Mary: How dare you accuse me of being unsanitary!
Also Mary: No I don't always wash my hands after taking a shit, what's the big deal?
1900: Typhoid Mary
2020: Corona Karen
More like Corona Cody; more men than women have it/spread it, at least in Southern California.
@@britspicks8250 That is interesting, do you have a source I can read?
Corporate Coffee Futures a quick google search didn’t get me info about who spreads it more, but men suffer more: www.forbes.com/sites/carmenniethammer/2020/03/06/do-women-and-men-have-a-coronavirus-risk-gap/
Corona Jung Li
More like Corona LingLing
The doctor stole the show, his expressions were amazing, given what's going on this was amazing, I loved it!
I'd listen to Jackie Johnson narrating the entire history of the world.
😊
Her accent while drunk is endearingly charming
She’s hot too
not a single mention in the title or description of who she is. ty
@@KE-yj4ip 0:01 she introduces herself, but it is easy to miss.
"It's America, the land of crazy." Nailed it.
Mary found work, not cooking, but housekeeping, but she made far more money as a cook, and she was good at it, so she went back to cooking, and spreading typhoid, she was also suspicious that she could have typhoid, without being sick herself, she figured, they were just anti Irish, which was a real thing, at the time.
She was absolutely right to be skeptical but after a certain point she was just refusing facts. It's part of what makes her story so unfortunate. Eventually even those sympathetic folks were lumped in as being untrustworthy despite them saying "Everyone you cook for is getting sick babe"
She should have demanded the rich assholes pay her a living wage to stop cooking and stay home to prevent spreading Typhoid. Pay me to self quarantine or else I will continue cooking for as many people as possible
David Belcher how is that their responsibility?? Lol
Right. Bring that up when "slavery" and "today suffering because of" is the topic. 🙄😤😡
it wouldve been interesting to hear a quote from her on the matter. Apparently Soper was going to write a book and give her Royalties, but she refused. She changed jobs frequently and refused to cooperate and never stayed long after an outbreak. She surely had to realize that what they were saying was true. And easy precautions could be taken.
The way she struggled to remember “antibiotics” 🤣🤣🤣
"Well, who's the cook here, Baby? Whooo's the coook?!"
@Diane Berg Sniff, sniff...and I SMELL YOU!
"WHO'S IN THE DAYUM KITCHEN OF THE HOSPITAL, DEREK?! TAKE A WILD GUESS!"
Number Runner ooh I know I know! It’s me!
I cought you fecal matter handed, fecal, matter, handed.
😂😂😂
The actors and actresses in these are fucking amazing. Having to lip sync with the drunk narrator emphatically must be a challenge and they do such a great job.
I love it when she just says honey in almost every sentence.
Honey or baby Love it
Yeah, it's amazing babyyyy
lol
KunstKrieg KinoPix Studios this is my cousin Jackie Johnson, she went to school in TX hence the drawl 😊
So sad this show was cancelled. It's the best thing ever. Hope it gets another platform.
"we're rich! we don't have to deal with disease."
Until they hire a cook. Nobody ever accused the rich of being forward thinking. ;)
Exact same thing they are saying with coronavirus. They traveling! They partying! They are getting sick! My poor ass fine cause I can’t afford to go out so I just quarantine 24/7
@@cindyalvarez6425 Haha, kind of funny (not funny) how they are some of these politicians are passing it around among themselves
@buriedxinblack Are you saying we don't have to deal with disease or that we all have it?
What the trump would say.
“I’m Mary Mallon, I’m Irish, I’m proud, and I’m here to cook, baby” 😂😂
With Drunk History, you have to have the right comedic actors to sell the lipsyncing. This was a damn funny video.
If she would have only washed her hands while singing the Happy Birthday song...twice.
Jezabel-in-Hell now what’s the fun in that?
He knew that before she died. She would not let him remove her gallbladder. He wanted to remove her gallbladder and let her go. She didn't believe she was the source and wouldn't let them take her gallbladder. Her stubbornness cost her the ability to live in the Free World.
@Julia Mimi True or that it was a weird conspiracy plot by all of soceity to gas light her to steal her organs. Depends on her education.
yeah, everyone's a hero with someone else's organs. you try undergo a cholecystectomy and a life without a gallbladder in the early 1900s, then we'll see who's stubborn.
(she should have washed her hands though. contact with infected feces is literally the only way to spread typhoid fever. it's not that hard to contain)
Yea, her stubborness also cost other people their lives. We wont be missing Mary
It was a bacteria, not a virus! Important distinction. Maybe if it was a virus she could be immune to one strain, but reinfected with a different one.
I learned a lot from this UA-cam thread
Forget Mary. Someone should have been studying that dog. Musta been near thirty years old by the time Mary died. 🤣
CSharp yeah, it was weird...
Chihuahua lives to 18 or 20
But still that was a 30 year old dog
The oldest dog lived to 29
When I was 21 years old I worked at a vet clinic. A cat came in that was 23. Blew my mind that the cat was older then me! He looked like a stuffed animal, he was a very old cat.
The guy who played the Doctor is really talented
She has a good storytelling voice.
So she carried that bacterium within her for decades, without ever suffering from it directly. She could've been a Super Villain.
I thought about this story when the gentleman flew JetBlue and after landing he told the flight attendance he has already been confirmed with the Coronavirus.
Feels like a crime.
If it isn’t it should be one.
I thought about her when I saw the video of that twack blonde licking a plane toilet. Funny both scenarios include a plane.
Not much of a gentleman...
Depraved-indifference murder (classified as murder 2 or manslaughter depending on the jurisdiction) if anybody dies. Reckless endangerment in any case.
He found out by text while already on the plane that he had it. Didn't know beforehand.
This is possibly the best episode that's been made so far. Every moment hilarious from start to finish
A shame that the best one was the last episode. CC cancelled it before its 7th season.
The million of teenagers who are spreading coronavirus without symptoms be like:
"YOLO!"
Gotta look out for those mild or non existent symptoms!
It's older people spreading the virus through travelling and working
kissit012 AGE WAR!!!
The Boomer Doomer Virus
I did not know, until I just now looked it up, that these actors really do get hammered for this. That’s hilarious. Apparently Derek Waters makes sure they have the whole next day free just in case they have to nurse a hang over. 😂
Scrub techs watching the whole world learn how to wash their hands: “You forgot your nails and interdigital spaces! DO IT AGAIN!”
Nurses watching people turn off contaminated faucets with clean hands. “DO IT AGAIN!”
Me watching the WHO pushing a hand washing technique that doesn't cover washing the wrists or washing under hot water.....DO IT AGAIN!
Right........That's the 1st thing they learn to do before touching any instruments.
That was me to my son and husband every single outbreak of anything . My son's whole life.
The person who tracked down Typhoid Mary wasn't George Soper, it was Sarah Josephine Parker, a doctor, fellow public health worker and the first woman to earn a doctorate in public health in 1917 from New York University.
Terrible Typhoid Mary is a great book for anyone who is interested in Mary Mallon’s story.
Thanks I was just thinking I wanted to read up on her after watching this.
“Daddy...I’m cold. I’m cold, daddy!” 😂
For the love of all that's holy, Jackie needs to do a LOT more of these.
Yeah, I want her to do lots more and I want Adam Campbell to be in all of them - what a combination, baby!
@Diesel If you're interested in hearing more of Jackie Johnson, I'd recommend that you listen to episode 183 of SPONTANEANATION (you can find it on UA-cam). The beginning of the episode is Paul F. Tompkins chatting with her and it is silly and great.
The ending went a bit quick. In reality she realised people were getting Typhoid so she moved somewhere else, faked her identity and continued to cook there in the kitchen. This went on for some time until they caught her.
Aww...they forgot to mention that Dr. Josephine Baker helped out with these investigations.
She tracked her down both times!
I know, the series is usually good about highlighting the roles women played in historical moments
@@annonnie oh shit, so the Knick was right
It’s not the Josephine Baker that I thought you were talking about. I wanted to know more and this is what I found… ua-cam.com/video/9ygQixDNlMY/v-deo.html
Honestly, this is my favorite episode of drink history because she’s so funny, plus the guy who plays Dr. George Soper is amazing.
How crazy is that today, as I went to my work, I was thinking of patient zero for the Corona virus and how is possible that from the actions of one person everything can go downhill for an insane amount of people (not only in the health department) and my thoughts inevitably went to typhoid Mary and then I opened my phone and I shaw this notification!!! 😮🌋
"So statistically improbable that it's basically impossible; you're talking crazy talk." -- Gavrilo Princip
Difference is Mary new early on that she was immune to the disease but carried it in her system. She was ordered to NOT cook, but did it anyway. Which led to more people dying
We are all connected...
@Jewels Star Because it is the hot topic du jour right now so UA-cam is recommending it.
It's almost as if a multibillion-dollar global corporation has been tracking your every thought word deed and movement and is eager to place in front of you content it thinks you will find interesting so that it can also place in front of you advertising to coerce you to spend money (or adopt a particular point of view). Weird.
7:23 the poor immortal dog gets scared when she hits the ground hahaha
The sequences that occurred @ 7:22 were hilarious with Mary keeling over and the dog being startled afterwards. 🤣🤣🤣
7:10 190SHIT is, without a doubt, my favorite year of the 1900s. I swear this year must be 200SHIT.
Dat lil' girl in pigtails, doh 🤣.
"Honey I'll be honest, y'all have typhoid fever."
"I love a good accent pillow" me too... me too...
Coronavirus Karen : The sequel
I just love the barrel's of ice cream in almost every scene lmao.
Just melting xD
The way she says *Honey* is just the best thing ever.
"For three YEH-EARS!" 🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂
"Named Mary Brown"
At least she picked the appropriate color for her fake name
LOL...."her eye juice"!
This women is hilarious.
This is my favorite Drunk History ever. The doctor just perfectly syncs with what the narrator is saying and how they’re saying it.
The best part of this series is first and foremost the actresses and actors who FLAWLESSLY lip sync with the narrators. This guy was hilarious😂
Every time she gets hyped she starts talking like Elvis!😂
“ who’s the cook here baby?! Who’s the cook?!”
The lip sync actor for the doctor is just awesome 😂
The way the dog jumps when Mary falls over 😭
Why of all places would she go to work at a hospital!
Because she doesn't care.
So much would have been avoided if she washed her hands.
@@Starmadien2019 That's correct. She'd already proven herself to be sociopath.
Well let's look at the job listings for an Irish woman in 1910s New York. Cook, seamstress or prostitute. 5 years unaccounted for. what are the odds she did all three.
@@Loremastrful So it's therefore acceptable to accept a job as a cook at a hospital when she has been told she's making people severely ill? It cannot have been the only job available and she still chose not to wash her hands!
7:23 great acting from Mary’s dog omg 😂
Drunk History is great. But I'd love to see how a "Stoned History" episode might play out! 😁
Uhmmm.. yeah so about that....wait what?
They’d have to be on mushrooms or acid. Weed would make most just more focussed and giggly.
Mark Gagliardi would still be trying to lay on the floor. Lol
assmane999 A person would end up breaking down all facts and going into tangents about how it relates to now. When I am high I get all meta and philosophical 🤣
Over the course of many hours and without a clear ending anyway.
Yo, this is my favorite episode. The narrator's i accent and her story telling is hilarious, the doctor and the health inspector facial expression is funny as hell. I've watched this episode over a 100 times.
this lady's voice is awesome.
@jensen madison She's also thoroughly enjoyable on episode 183 of SPONTANEANATION (you can find it on UA-cam). The first ~25m of the episode is Paul F. Tompkins chatting with her and it cracks me up.
“Well, honey, I’ll be honest”
Your making Rich ppl sick. That's not acceptable 😂
While sniveling liberals who refuse to work mock the wealthy for working. LOL
San Francisco the wealthy makes there wealth from the working citizens
Mark Garay Jeez I’m sorry...
I love how when the doctor confronts Mary, Jackie immediately goes into a Karen wants to speak to the manager voice. "How dare you accuse me..."
“Her shit infected wrist”
That phrase filled me with glee
I wish this woman would narrate literally everything.
Another great lesson in washing your hands.
This was not only the best Drunk History ever, but also a well-timed PSA!
The description of typhoid fever at 8:00 is worth a read.
The actors with the on cue lip syncing are the shit( all pun intended). 👏👏👏
"Make a life. Make a career for yourself. But hunny...wash your f*ckin hands!"
words to live by.
😂 *7:23** She scared the sh!t out of that pooch.*
Lmao
To say "unequivocable" while drunk is impossible. I'm drunk and I'm not even sure i spelt it right.
Question is how many people with the coronavirus are asymptomatic and will be spreading it for years to come...
That's the problem with viruses. Just like the cold and flu almost anyone can be asymptomatic and be a carrier for life. The virus can lay dormant in nonvascular tissues and then come back at anytime your immune system becomes weakened.
Don't ever get a root canal.
Porkchop Sandwiches
Heard the same thing about Malaria
@@MachineHeadDissent that's why we create vaccines
@Diane Berg your wrong but okay
Good Question!
My grandpa was born in 190Shit. He says it was a really crappy year to be born.
My Great-grandfather died from Typhoid Fever in 1908, Youngstown, OH.
I'm very sorry
Get Pretty Fit I’m sorry :(
"190SHIT!"
THAT KNOCKED ME OUT 😂
i love how many sentences she starts with "so soaper rolls up to.."
The dog's reaction when Mary hit the floor took me right out!
I'm getting major Florence Welch vibes from the narrator
"What's that pill that solves everything? Antibiotics!" And that, my friends, is why we have antibiotic resistance.
𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘵-𝘤𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘴?
The lip syncing in this was so good props to the actors
She and Lyric Lewis are my absolute fave narrators!!
Whoever is playing Dr. Soper deserves a freaking Oscar for that lip-syncing.
This is so relevant for the times we live in today.
And ladies and gentlemen this is how the Irish soap bar came into existence 😂😂
This lady yells a lot. I love it!
@Gabriel Moline She also had me laughing when I listened to episode 183 of SPONTANEANATION (you can find it on UA-cam). The first ~25m of the episode is Paul F. Tompkins chatting with her and it cracks me up.
her story is actually kinda sad when you think about it
but her narration was PERFECT for this omg
The clip of mary dying all abruptly KILLLEEDDD MEEEEE 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The actor who played the doctor made this one of my favorite Drunk History clips I’ve ever watched. He was perfect with the timing and amazingly animated!
You havent seen Evan Rachel Wood
Anthony Bourdain wrote an excellent book about her. She didn’t wash her hands. This situation was not funny.
I don't watch my hands either. They're attached to me and mine to control.
@@Virjunior01 I hope you don't work in a place where you could infect a lot of people. I'm pretty sure chefs and waiters also need to follow guidelines on cleaneliness, so I sure hope you don't work in this branch especially.
@@elisabeth4912 he's making a joke based on Phalyn's misspelling of "wash" as "watch" Hence they're attached to him and his to control.
This situation is the same today. Illegal immigrants sneaking past our immigration laws designed to exclude infectious disease. But you know. Liberals. They always snivel and complain until THEY get sick. Then its "Trump"... did this.
@@jay1jayf Oh, ok I'm stupid😂 Sorry, it was a good joke
