He was fearless
That's my belief too. He was hilarious!
"Doc, she's choking."
He said he really enjoyed when he bombed. He thought it was hilarious.
When it happened it was black against white actually. I was alive
Behind jean-michele basquiat's hog
Norm was such a gangster. His OJ jokes pissed off the NBC executive and told SNL to stop it. Norm just doubled down until they actually fired him for it. He was already great before that but him getting fired for not caving is just legendary.
Norm said what everyone knew, but weren't supposed to say out loud. A hero.
You hit the nail on the head.
SNL writer Jim Downey deserves part of the credit. He was Norm's writing partner for Weekend Update and wrote many of the savage OJ jokes. In fact, according to Downey, it was originally only Downey who was going to be fired from Weekend Update but Norm chose to leave as well, rather than continue without him.
The NBC executive that fired him was a friend of OJ Simpson and took offence at the jokes about OJ.
The same executive, also barred any commercials for Norm's first movie on NBC and its affiliated stations.
So funny that they invited him to come back to host the show
Bill Clinton was traveling overseas back when he was President to inspect the troops in Iraq.He had a small terrier in his arms as he walked down the line of soldiers exchanging pleasantries when he said to one of the soldiers
"Hey, I got this little dog for Mrs Clinton"
To which the soldier replied,
"Good trade sir"
😆 Sounds like a norm joke
Ha! no way!
@@briandoornink7597yeah definitely no way. We had no troops in Iraq when Clinton was President. 🤦🏽♂️ In fact Clinton held off the Neo-Cons’ push to invade Iraq for years. Then W stole Florida and they finally got their wet dream come true.
@@muximus2771 Actually, it sounds like a Jack Benny joke.
We didn't have troops in Iraq during Clinton's Presidency.
Edit the joke a little
I’m going to try to answer your question on the “Bill Clinton is a murderer” flare up on The View. First of all the ladies brought up politics when they chastised Norm for liking Republican Candidate Bob Dole. So Norm responded in the classic Norm way and double reversed it by bringing up the rumor that long time Clinton aide and confidant Vince Foster hadn’t committed suicide earlier in the year in a Washington park. The Clinton’s were facing criminal scrutiny of their dealings in Arkansas at the time.
Hard to say suicide when he had two bullets in his head
Well, he wasn't a good shot.
And so many more since.
People at the top of their careers all decided suicide was best. Their top Chef drowning even though he did not go swimming because he didn't know how?I believe it was like 40 people around them have perished in my whole life I've experienced 3 ....40 really?
@@28andfun I mean they do know a lot of people and they're old so I don't think the number is that important. What's important is how many of those people have died under weird circumstances. Vince Foster, unalived himself by somehow shooting himself in the head twice. Walter Scheib, drowned under mysterious circumstances. Seth Rich, killed in a "mugging gone wrong" but nothing was stolen off of his body. Things that make you go hmmmmm.
Norm often complained that Barbara Walter’s spawned today’s tabloid journalism w/ her “most interesting people of the year” segments, on 60 minutes, & her show “The View” which routinely traffics in false allegations against anyone with whom they disagree politically. Norm was the trolls troll! 😂
Boy was he ever right
Yeah she's definitely not a real journalist
I thought you were going to say she spawned from the evil depths below lol.
@@28andfunshe did
Here's another fact one of norms best movies in my opinion was called "screwed" very hard to find excellent flick.
she was in fact NOT a real journalist haha
Never was, never will be
She should react to the Barbara Walters / Brooke Shields interview.
Barbara walters also chastised Corey Feldman for having the audacity to call out pedophiles in hollywood. How dare he ruin their reputation!
Barbara Walters is part of the Killary Club. Her job was to use her position in the media to hide the truth.
it's that he *didn't* call them out. he kept going on shows to talk about "an international ring with well-known names" but he always has some excuse for why he can't name anyone when pressed.
@@ObjectorSnarkProbably because he didn't want to die for speaking their names.
J.E didn't name any names and he didn't make it out of jail. Clinton?
@@stephengonsalves9705 "Probably" You're also "probably" making shit up. Corey Feldman is a nut. And Barbara Walters was a celebrity journalist. She did puff pieces. If you were expecting hard hitting journalism from her you might be Down Syndrome.
I love the way he trolled Babwa Wawa and The View women.
I really miss that guy.
Or as Tim Dillon has called them “squawking birds” 😂
@@osamabinliftin8632 Even more so now than then. 🙄
I can't stand Barbara or the rest of the spineless View hosts through the years.
Lol. I’m chuffed someone else remembers her as Barbara Wawa.
@@c1ph3rpunkWasn't sure anyone else picked up on that. For me that's been her name ever since the late, great Gilda Radner did her on Saturday Night Live. 🙂
Norm and his friend and SNL writer Jim Downey would both write the weekend update jokes every week along with sketches, Norm was fired in 1997 from SNL after the head of NBC told him to stop making OJ jokes because he was friends with OJ, Norm kept making OJ jokes and got fired
Some people believed OJ. He wrote, "If I Did It", for them.
There was DNA evidence that he was guilty. Her blood was found on gloves that were found on his property; blood droplets in his car; and in both his bathroom sink drain, and shower drain. He definitely did it. Most people knew it, but some people didn’t understand or trust the new technology of DNA testing and identifying.
That is correct. It was Don Ohlmeyer, who was friends with OJ. Ohlomeyer fired Norm.
Yep, he was repeatedly warned to stop the OJ jokes so of course Norm simply told even nastier OJ jokes lol
He beat cancer 3 or 4 times and nobody knew it until he was dead. He was a strong man who dealt with his own hard times privately kept it in. Not even mentioning it to his family. Keeping everyone around him happy all the meanwhile .. what a great man.
This is normal. Men keep it in, and try to help everyone else. You must know this.
Star Jones actually thought that she put Norm in his place when she said that he wouldn't be invited back to there brain dead TV show again. Text book trolling. A genius and a comedy legend.
like jim morrison being told after letting "higher" accidentally slip on purpose during 'light my fire' that the doors wouldn't be invited back to do the ed sullivan show anymore, "we just *did* the sullivan show."
fallen srar jones = moorpn
Everyone was firmly in a guilty/not guilty camp for years; however, now it's pretty universally accepted that he definitely did it.
Hey, OJ is still looking for the "real" killer. He'll let you know when he looks in the mirror, I mean finds him.
Nobody with a brain thought he was innocent, but unforunately around 13% of the country hoped he would be found not-guilty regardless, because they saw a murderer getting away as a "win" for their people.
I think OJ's book, 'If I did it.' convinced most people that he did it.
"Clinton, he murdered a guy."
Almost as funny as
"Barbara Walters has announced she is retiring. What's next for Babs?
death."
His appearance on Letterman after getting fired from SNL is the best
It was great.....but Norm had a lot of 'bests." Chairman of the B-O-R-E-D among them.
Norm has been described as the comedian that comedians go to see.
let's just say that a lot of people "around" the Clintons, "self deleted" themselves at times convienent for the Clintons.
Like the aid who was shot from behind in a "mugging" where the mugger didn't take any of his belongings.
The list if what over 70 long now?
@metoo7557 Pretty sure it's over 100 at this point.
Let's just say the "friends" of the Clinton's appear to have a much shorter life span than the rest of us.
He was caught on camera laughing at a funeral of one of them. He saw the camera aimed on him and immediately went from laughing to sad face as if on cue.
There is a whole story behind Norm, OJ, O.J's friend a NBC executive and Norms job at SNL. I don't want to spoil to much with the explanation.
Watch the clip of Norm returning to SNL to host. Then watch the clip of Norm explaining to David Letterman why he left SNL. I think you will really like them and learn a little about Mr. MacDonalds ethos.
By the way great reactions!
I guess you watched the SNL clip. I typed too early
@@bluebird3281I can't remember who but one of Norm's co-writers was to be fired because of the constant OJ jokes and Norm wouldn't have it. So by protecting him he got himself fired.
@@nsny24Hmmm maybe it was Jim Downey. Just guessing, I didn't know that part. Thanks
@@nsny24 Jim Downey, I think
Norm was high I. Q. He said something that really hinted at his intelligence:" As comedians we love to make a lot of people laugh. But more and more, I prefer to make one person smile." That is Brilliant. Laughter is an involuntary response. Smiling suggests a thoughtful connection.🏆🌟🌟🌟🌟
10:25 Baba Wawa was hardly a journalist.
HEAR! HEAR!
She's Barbara Walters. She's famous. She's important. I guess I have to say she's a real journalist even though I don't really know anything about her career. /sarcasm
Journalists have biases. The thing with modern journalists is that they can't hide their bias. Those journalists who got established before the Internet days have this air of neutrality around them. It's not real. She had a bias and a "side" .. just like everyone else.
Norm was the king of " no F's given"
Decent is used to men two different things. There's "decent" as in just-okay, so-so, but not bad... then there is the idea of decency, a character trait that a person has, along the lines of being humble, buttoned-down, "good" in the moral sense. This is why when someone knocks on a door where someone may be undressed the question is "i'm coming in, are you decent?"
The answer is "I'll do."
I'm surprised to read this , but I believe you're right.
Thej past two generations of Americans do not read .
They don't know the definition of words.
When the alternative is a corrupt sleazeball then decent is great.
There is so much great Norm content on UA-cam, please don’t slow down on the Norm train. Most fan’s favorite comedians, consider Norm to be the best.
he's your favorite comedian's favorite comedian
Norm is at the top of the comedy mouintain and always will be. We miss you Norm!
How crazy that those ladies were trying so hard to censor him. What we’re allowed to hear discussed lol.
It's mostly obey or be fired in journalism, freedom of press is a myth.
@@SootyPhoenixin mainstream journalism you mean, there are plenty of great independent journalists like that lad in australia who got his house burned down because of the shit he was exposing
This idiot reacter was cheering those harpies on.
@@SootyPhoenix Evil is in power.
The media tries very hard to maintain complete control over what's said and how it's presented. If they allowed genuine uncontrolled discussion and debate, their cherished ideas would lose and they'd be exposed as fools. It's very rare that something like this happens and someone sneaks through with something that challenges the narrative.
I grew up in a Black neighborhood, and I remember at the time all my friends parents were happy that he was found not guilty because it was a middle finger to the court system. But none of them actually though he didn't do it lol. Everyone knew he did it
Even OJ knows he did it!
Yep. He even wrote a book about it
@@dathorndike4908
That was my experience as well
That's right. Blacks aren't stupid. It was a political thing.
Far too many innocent people get convicted. Most of them never get redress.
I loved Norm's attitude at the White House Correspondents' dinner - he made both 'Kill & Killary Clinton' sooooo uncomfortable🤣You should watch it to appreciate the nervous tension he created in the room - Norm LOVED every second!😁
A legendary 'comedian' - a true GENIUS....& also a #DeeplyClosetedGayMan
R.I.P. Norm - we miss you!
Yeah, basically the head of NBC was friends with OJ, and told Norm to stop with the OJ jokes. And Norm was like, ya know what, I'm gonna do MORE OJ jokes 😂.
He would just randomly throw in OJ jokes. I loved it.
it was his OJ jokes that got him fired from Saturday Night Live
He wouldn't of had it any other way, just like Patrice O'Neil, rodney dangerfield, red fox, sam Kinnison, technically danial tosh, joe rogan, so many and almost all are getting older or have been canceled in one way or another ode to all of the greats.
...and the Clintons...and then he died.
I'm pretty sure it was the Clinton jokes that got him fired.
Definetly didn't help nome surprised he didn't pull out an oj joke as well.
Love your reactions! Norm sure loved to kick the hornets nest and then sit back and smile 😂
Telling the truth is down right shocking. It's ironic that that responsibility so often falls to comedians.
The View thing is great. Once they told Norm "You cant say that", that guaranteed that he was going to not let it go, and double down on it. He loved trolling people like that.
He also said in another interview that he'd have to be retarded to actually believe that the Clintons murdered Vince Foster.
About the clip of Norm on The View, he said years later on a podcast that they were annoying him (I think it was because they were lying about him to create controversy, or something like that), so he decided to f**k with them. And they brought up politics to put him on the spot, even though he is just a comedian, so since they wanted to talk about politics he just started calling the democrat candidate they supported a murderer xddd. He pretended it was a very well known thing and that he was surprised they didn't know about it, and he wouldn't get off the topic. Basically acting like a r3tard to annoy them (his words). At the end of the interview he also ruined a(n unfunny) comedy bit their producer had been trying to get him to do for weeks by just explaining it to the audience.
There are very few comedians that would risk their careers that way just to f**k with people, not as a carefully crafted bit, but just because they feel like doing it. Even comedians that are generally known to be edgy don't really risk their careers that much, if you consider the specific jokes. Bill Burr said on a podcast that there are many comedians who dgaf, but that they all still kind of do, because you have to care if you want to have a career, but that Norm genuinely didn't. That is not the only reason, but it is one of the main reasons why he is a legend to many comedians.
Watched the same thing.
He didn't pretend it was a known thing. It was clear to anyone paying attention that the Clintons had Vince Foster (as well as many other people)
Killed.
Acquiescing on murder only to follow with "Ok, manslaughter" even had the room laughing.
@@E-d1d3 Exactly - He crushed it right there!!
The best acting OJ ever did was when he tried and failed to put on his gloves at trial.
I always am amazed when he asks the audience if President Clinton is laughing. That made even Clinton himself laugh.
Yes! I find that hilarious... balls
fun fact - norm's older brother was a journalist at the cbc in canada. norm almost followed in his footsteps to become a journalist.
Interesting, if he would have approached journalism as brutally honestly and bravely as his comedy he would have been one of the few modern journalists with balls and integrity.
Years ago I was chatting with another CBC journalist and asked him him about Norm and his brother Neil. He said that Neil is actually funnier than Norm.
@@jimgore1278 that wouldn't surprise me, they probably had funny parents. tom green is from ottawa as well, his parents are really straight laced and he used to torture them with terrible pranks. as furious as they'd be they'd usually still have to crack a smile. "tom green paints the house" and "tom green sl^tmobile" still crack me up.
@@blackberrythornsI'm not even a Tom Green fan particularly, but I can still see his father marching off in a fury to catch the bus and Tom yelling "Dad! Those women are in love!"
@@mookie7688 and then tom pulls up to the bus stop... that's the icing on the cake.
10:00 was a Vince foster reference if I'm not mistaken.
Yep, it was
Decency is rarer than you might believe especially among the politicians sadly.
Norm was one of a kind
R.I.P. you beautiful man. You are dearly missed in a world as crazy as this❤
Norm is the greatest of all time!
The Norm McDonald ESPYs video is wiiiiild. No one in that room had ever been talked about like that to their face. So great.
Norm was referring to the mysterious death of Vince Foster, there is plenty online if you are interested.
That monologue when he hosted SNL is simply legendary.
Norm was his own writer. Brilliantly savage. RIP Norm. This world needs you more than ever.
I think he had some assistance from a couple of ppl like Jim Downey. But yeah he's the best ever
“That’s what Clinton says about his wife isn’t it?” Hahahaha
Norm is the GOAT
Apparently Norm's inital plan for when he hosted SNL was to just walk off the set after his opening monologue, but he decided not to go through with that one in the end. Would have been absolutely legendary if he had though lol
Yeah, he said a friend convinced him not to do it.
It wouldn’t have been fair to the cast, writers, and crew to leave them hanging. It wasn’t their fault he was fired.
@randall-king Thats mostly true. The way some of them threw Norm under the bus, a few of them probably deserved it.
As to Norm's appearance on the View, that was not a unique event. If you tell Norm he's not allowed to talk about something, he WILL talk about it, and NOTHING else. There was a time at a one of his standups that he was pulled aside and told to keep the jokes clean and refrain from cursing, and he went out and cursed in every single joke he told. He did not care.
Conversely, when he was expected to be raunchy, like at the Bob Saget roast he did nothing but clean old times comedy.
He lost 50percent of the audience, (walked out with kids in tow) but held onto the university aged....
That clip on The View he really was never invited back lol. I love how he kept throwing those punchlines in there even after they kept trying to shut him up and he just laughed it off
Norm was fired from Weekend Update by Don Ohlmeyer. Ohlmeyer was a friend of OJ and didn't like the OJ jokes.
Norm’s appearances on Letterman when they talk about Ohlmeyer are so good
@@strangebotwin- In one of the first Norm-Letterman interactions Norm brings up crullers and Letterman kinda thinks Norm is not literate, but cruller is word describing a fried donut.
The "murder in the whitehouse" he's referring to is Vince Foster.
As you're finding out, Norm loved being challenged at any level, and those that did often suffered the consequences. As a comedian (he took it seriously), he knew there was a lot of room for giving and taking, but the view ladies thought they should only give it to him. He was extremely intelligent, well read, and grounded on what made people tick. Personal fav is a radio show with adam carolla about Kenny Rogers songs.......NORM!
"leader of the free world" always makes me laugh xD enjoyed the reaction, love norm
My fav Norm joke was told on Conan's show about his French Canadian uncle's first trip to NYC. The punch line was best ever.
Norm was the best weekend update host on SNL imo and I’ve seen them all since Chevy. But he also told some incredibly sweet rambly non savage jokes esp on talk shows. He excelled at a delivery that took you off guard no matter what type of joke it was. He was a great Canadian comedian and he couldn’t be pinholed. Gone too soon- miss him.
Norm McDonald wasn’t into politics. He just liked to get people worked up because he thought it was funny.
exactly. and he liked to play devils advocate a lot because people's reactions to that give him the best material to work with
No, he admittedly leaned right but not super far. He geninuely sided with Bush Sr's stances and spent the better portion of his carrier pointing out leftist nonsense and criminal actions, including his last special he recorded at his home. Nice try, though.
There is no such thing as "people who aren't political". If you have any opinions, beliefs or values, then you're going to have an opinion on politics. It's like the myth of unbiased media. Nobody is unbiased. Everyone holds biases.
@@Xeno_Solarus I'm going on what Norm Macdonald said about himself and about that incident in particular. I can believe him or I can believe you. Please don't be insulted if I choose to believe Norm Macdonald. Humility opens the doors to learning. Please take this as a learning opportunity. If you don't understand the apathy people develop after living enough years and seeing a politician is a politician is just another politician, I have nothing for you other than that if you already feel you know everything, there is nothing more for you that you can learn. Pride closes the doors to learning. Calling something a myth no more proves something is false than saying something evolved proves that is a valid scientific theory. If you want to say something honestly please leave the tired rhetorical devices behind. And if you don't believe Norm Macdonald wasn't into politics, that is at best your opinion, not a fact.
@@JoveJoved Again, I'm going on what Norm Macdonald himself said about himself and about that incident in particular. Nice try? Is that supposed to put me in my place? Why don't you try paying attention? Why don't you try thinking? Why don't you try honesty? When you've made those efforts I hope someday you can honestly and accurately say to yourself that you've made a nice try. But perhaps I flatter you with the assumption that these things are in your grasp. And no, I don't count that Norm Macdonald said he found George W. Bush a pleasant person more than that because he didn't go much beyond that. Note I said George W. Bush as opposed to George H. W. Bush, it is not senior and junior just to give you an example of how lacking in effort you make to understand what things are. And neither the left nor the right has a monopoly on corruption and lies. Or haven't you noticed?
Norm was the best kind of comedian. Everyone gets a pie in the face.
Norm Macdonald: Like a Boss. Legend...
He was ruthless. We need more comics like him.
Bill wouldn't punch him, he would just send out "the hit squad."
You know he killed a guy
Because nothing was funnier than Norm Macdonald going scorched earth on people and companies!
His delivery was very calculated, even though he would hide the fact so well😅
Charles Woodson was a DB. He and Tom Brady play football together for Michigan.
Norm was a comedian and Barbara Walters claimed to be a journalist. If Norm made a joke about Bush being a murderer she would have laughed.
It was HIS phone ringing on The View. Norm is historically unbothered.
One of the View producers wanted to do a bit where Norm answered the phone during the show. Norm didn't want to do it, but took the phone. And then 'ruined' the joke when he said a producer wanted him to do it. Whole thing was dumb. There is a video with him and Adam Carolla talking about the whole thing. I think Walters basically barred him from being on the View again after this. Which is no real big loss.
ua-cam.com/video/T0HqeWdSKWU/v-deo.html
“Norm Macdonald Saving interviews” it’s a great collection, too👍
Barbara Walters was an old school journalist. She was also a hard core democrat like most of them. She didn't like her buddy Bill being accused.
AKA "facts."
Regarding the joke about fundraising, there were reports that he allowed campaign donors to sleep in the Lincoln bedroom if they donated enough.
Also.. Fun Fact... Norm is a certified math genius.
Norm & Jim Downey, together the greatest!
10:02 I dont know if its the way he says it or what, but whenever I see that clip and I hear Norm say "Bill Clinton. he murdered the guy" Im almost crying laughing. it shouldnt be that funny but for some reason it kills me every time.
Whenever someone speaks of Bill or Hillary you may have heard them say. " And I'm not suicidal. " That's due to the talk around the campfire. 😁
Shane Gillis about to have his Norm moment on SNL 😂
GILLIS was terrible hosting SNL.
Norm was a savage. The governor of Iowa tried to kick out of the state after Norm did a stand-up set. The story is hilarious and available all over UA-cam
95% chance OJ did it, 5% chance his son did it.
I think he did it. However, if I was on the jury, I would have to vote to acquit. The reason being is that the lead detective in that case took the stand and pled the 5th when asked if he planted evidence.. That alone creates reasonable doubt.
He was once described as the " Last dangerous" comedian on SNL. Can confirm
When Norm said, "He's decent," it wasn't on a competency scale, it was on a moral scale.
false^2
Norm was a savage, and I loved him for it.
"Have the day that you deserve" - Hey! That was mean! ;)
Norm, simply the greatest. I think more and more people are finally discovering that thanks to Utube. RIP
Amen…I miss him, too. I appreciate this segment, along with your commentary.
The thing about getting fired, was because the guy running NBC was friends and a fan of OJ Simpson, and was tired of Norm's constant jokes about OJ being a murderer.
To show you how savage he was. They called him to host a comedy show and the next day the governor of the state wanted to ban norm from coming back to that state lol Jim breuer (a comedian from that show) tells the story on the Teo von podcast. Definitely a must watch story for any norm fan.
Norm was the best and most underrated comedian
Barbara Walter’s is as much a journalist as I am the President of Africa.
I like your video. You are much more self-aware than others. I love Norm. Great video
Norm cared a lot about making people uncomfortable, but the right people. He cared about his loved ones just as much as anyone, he is remembered because he stuck it to the elites in a way no one else would, and it was believable
I’ve heard these jokes a thousand times but I’m laughing when she reacts. And I love her dimple!
I find it weird that Barbara Walters tells Norm "You're supposed to be funny", implying that he isn't being funny. And yet, if you're me, him trolling those harpies on The View relentlessly and causing them to have spasms of rage is just about the funniest damn thing I've ever seen. Different strokes for different folks I guess.
Also, not going to read through hundreds of comments to see if someone has already said this, but just in case. To be clear, Norm wasn't fired from SNL because he "wasn't funny". He was fired from SNL because one of the big wigs was friends with OJ Simpson and they demanded Norm lay off the OJ jokes and he refused to do it. Norm was the type of comedian who would always tell the funniest joke he could think of and never gave a single fuck who it might offend, even at the expense of his own job.
You know how in show business some people don't care but they kinda do they have to still eat norm really didn't care-bill burr
Thanks again. I love watching new people go on the Norm Journey. It's a weird thing to say, but I truly feel that Norm saved my life. He's my favorite comedian of all time.
Britt, welcome to the world of Norm. I'm enjoying reacting to your reacting .
The meaning of "decent" has changed, and varies by place. When people say "he's a decent man" as a compliment, it defers to respectability and moral behaviour, rather than the average connotations of "it's decent"
Norm was the goat! R.I.P. We miss you
Norm was always the ultimate troll
You are spot on with your analysis, he had no filter and he really didn't care. If he thought something was funny, he'd go for it and didn't care if nobody laughed.
There's a great interview on UA-cam with Conan O'Brien and Jim Downey, after Norm's death. Norm was one of Conan's favourite ever guests and Jim was one of the writers on SNL who worked with Norm on the News update section. Jim said that if it came to a choice between two jokes, one that was a bit hack but was guaranteed to get a big laugh, or one that was really funny but would probably die, Norm would always go for the latter choice.
Here's my take on OJ. The LAPD tried to frame a guilty man. Causing him to get off.
Don Ohlmeyer was NBC’s West Coat president and a close personal friend of Oj Simpson. He ordered Norm to stop making jokes about his friend. Norm doubled down on them. He fired Norm mid season.
He also later ordered Conan O’Brian to stop having Norm as a guest. Conan refused since Norm was not only a hilarious guest, but a personal friend. Ultimately Conan won out.
Norm was and always will be the G.O.A.T. !
Norm was the greatest of all time
the biggest misconception of Norm was that “he didn’t care”. He cared a bunch, he cared about comedy.
norm is what being honest is all about.
Norm one of the finest comedian s ever RIP.RBC
Norm definitely had no filter. What is crazy is he is Canadian, and conservative at the same time!
