When my life completely fell apart as a young teen, I immersed myself in the wholesome, clever humor of books by David Brenner and Erma Bombeck, and I truly believe that it was part of why I am alive today.
I thought it was odd and drove me nuts every time he told a joke he waited for his reward... Laugh or I will keep quiet until you do laugh...OK... RIP...
I remember when he used to guest host. Saddened to hear of his passing especially after finding this channel and remembering the old days. Thanks for posting these videos!
I was so sad to hear of David Brenner passing. I hope he didn't suffer too long with that horrible disease. I came here because I realized I had heard or seen him on TV lately. This was a hilarious routine and his personality was so cute. I just loved this comedian. A clean comedian that was so funny that his routines 20+ years later are still so funny. Prayers to his family.
Garrity9290 So sad to realize he had die even worse realizing he die with the awful disease my brother die of. Like you i hope he did suffer to long. Remember him when i use to stay up late when i was high school to watch him on tv in the 70's. I had a t.v. in my room, my parents never knew it was on. R.I.P. David
@@wolfsden3812 So sorry to hear about the loss of your brother. The best way to get through life is to make the brain think of the tiny daily things we are thankful for. I can lift one's spirits.
I loved his bit about the bravest man in the world. It wasn't a great warrior or a police man or a cab driver. He said no it was the first guy to drink milk. Two guys were looking at a cow. One said I don't know what that is but I'm going to pull on those things and drink whatever comes out.
You said this (Nothing like a Frank Reynolds re-do... this is nothing like the original "Crack in Time" as the Violence Report declared, it was a police, not Yipiee riot... Nice going ABC!) , three years ago, at UA-cam and you were/are 100% correct.
The thing about comedians is that even if they are just mildly funny (some outright tank), it is still entertaining and will prompt a smile if not laughter.
Millennials think Seinfeld was the beginning of his kind of comedy. No it was comics like Mort Sahl, George Carlin and David Brenner. Particularly, Brenner was Seinfeld before Seinfeld
As a kid, I always thought he seemed like a really nice, happy guy when I'd see him. This is very sterile. antiseptic, generic humor, but it was also very much what whitebread types liked.
I didn’t know who he was until Adam Sandler impersonated him on SNL. I figured Adam was overplaying how annoying his voice was and now I see he was holding back. I can’t listen to that voice for more than a minute without wanting to murder something.

"Wholesome" and "clever." Said something about you that this was the type of humor in which you took refuge. Glad you made it.
Thanks for sharing
Interesting
I was lucky to see him live, twice. Las Vegas and in a restored theater in a suburb of Chicago.
I miss this guy so very much. He always made us laugh, and looked like he was having a great time doing it.
Always one of Johnny's favorite comic guests. rest in peace, Dave. thanks for all the laughs and funny moments.
David was also a good guest host when Johnny was off.
"Did you ever get a cured ham and wonder what it had?" Sounds like a joke that could have inspired a young Mitch Hedberg.
Same with the blow-dryer that sucks.
Or a Steven Wright.
Yep defo Mitch, Mitch of course made the style completely his own
Thought the same thing lol
The greatest observational comedian of all time and he was from Philadelphia and his humor is sadly missed !!!!!
No. That would be George Carlin.
He had Class, was never vulgar, a true Funny Gentleman..☆☆☆☆
So true!
his last joke was about someone shoving a hand up some else's asshole
Comedic timing doesn't get much better than this.

My brother was a comedian and he was so much like David......died to young as well.....the world is a strange place .......enjoy the ride

God bless you man, I went to school sleepy a lot of times because of you. Thank you.
Love David, was very funny!!! 👏😊
If you believed that his act was always this clean, then you never saw his Las Vegas shows! Ver-r-r-r-r-ry different, shall we say.
Kind of like TV Redd Foxx vs comic Redd Foxx 😂
Thanks for so much laughter, David. RIP.
I loved him. I miss him and his comedy.
Oh so great! Thank you for posting!
Observational Comedy at it's best. RIP #davidbrenner
Yeeaaahhh...no. This is way too easy pickin's for that sorta praise. It's middling at best.
he befriended Jimmie Walker when Jimmie was young, gave Jimmie advice on how to get more popular. David Brenner was a real giver.
David was very funny. RIP David. We miss you my friend.
My friend is his son r.I.p David Brenner very missed
Tell your friend I still remember his dad with a grateful heart.
Great stuff 🥳 Very nice man in person ❤️
This is wild because its before the movie total recall.....
I had so many different thoughts before I understood this joke lol
RIP sweet, funny man
You said this

Very funny!! RIP.

When I see Brenner, I think of Gilbert.
Rest in peace, David!
A brilliant joke writer.
He was so funny…. 😅❤️
Brenner was nearly 50 years old here

Don't forget Robert Kline. Jerry names him as a great influence.
Rest in peace David
It's like he had the same makeup/stylist as Gary Shandling
Shandling always had perfect hair. It was his major worry.
love comedy
Several jokes required you use your Mensa Card (...wait for it....) :) :D
R.I.P David
His style and vocal tone seemed to influence Ray Romano, I think......
@ 0:43 nothing has changed.
I had a crush on Brenner in the 70s. I was a sucker for a funny man. And if he was Jewish, that was an extra.
RIP
I always thought David Brenner was going to take over for Carson not Leno. Died too young! RIP David!
Me too
When we were kings

He was funny
sounds eerily like Fred Stoller
Wow, i couldn't figure out which one you were insulting, and i realized you were right.
R I P...
When you order a steak...they dont have a hoof hanging off of it.....funny funny funny loloo9o9ol
Anyone else here from the Jamie Foxx podcast?
David Brenner died a long time ago
Rip
Brenner looks like Henry Winkler if Winkler was 25% more Jewish.
Independent trucker strike, you say
Like vaudeville
So Robin Williams stole jokes from him which jokes?
I have some good news and some bad news...
The bad news is David Brenner is dead. That's the bad news.
The good news is at least, it wasn't Doc.
People who aren't familiar with Carson won't get this. Good one, dude!
Thank YOU!
This guy stinks
A bunch of us must b hard of smell. 👃🏼
You stink
People thought this guy was funny?
I think, done up the right way.. he could've passed for barbara streisand
People used to say I sounded like him.
+Enjoys Anal That Jersey/New York accent. :)
+Kangaroo Jackson Philadelphian.
Philly accent
