I love to see white people succeed... just kidding, that would be racist, right? I like this comedy, but when you're calling out racism please remember that if you care about the medal winners skin colour then you are being a bit racist yourself. That's a white job, ha.
@@alisonjohnson1701 it means illegals are taking jobs traditionally performed by black men especially men who were incarcerated and can’t find work so easily. They probably pay illegals less too it’s a problem.
And when Simone lost it was against another black woman (Rebeca Andrade) and the third place went to, you guessed, another black athlete (Jordan Chiles) This is really Black Women Summer both sides of the pond
That was for floor. Simone won 3 gold medals (Teams, All Around, and Vault) and got a silver for Floor. She unfortunately didn't medal for Beam due to an uncharacteristic fall, but given that it's usually unlikely for the All Around gold medalists to medal in other events (mostly because they used all of their energy to get the All Around medal, that's normal (it's kind of what happened with Sunisa Lee, and even then she still got bronze in Bars). (Though I know this is off topic, the Italians surprised everyone by having an Italian gold medalist for Beam and they won silver for Teams. I know it doesn't seem like a big deal, but Italy NEVER medals, it's usually the USA, China, Russia or Romania who medal. Both Italy and Brazil were dark horses this year, Italy more so since they don't even have their own Rebeca Andrade and they did as usual in the last Olympics) Frankly, a lot of people aren't also talking about how both Simone Biles and even Rebeca Andrade are also outliers since there's not many Olympic Gymnasts who are 27 and 25 and competing at their level. At their age, many gymnasts are retiring and both medalled!
They were all very talented, gifted, disciplined, high performing, young women. All of them beautiful, with beautifully colored skin of varying hues. None of them were black.
@@anotherpointofview222Now we’re playing semantic games about whether Black people are the color black? Are you under the impression that White people are actually white and Asian people are actually yellow?
Love the Black Woman Summer! I saw somewhere that Simone Biles commented, ‘I love my black job.’ Except hers really is a black job - no one else is doing what she’s doing.
@@FunkyLittlePoptartI checked her wikipedia page for how many medals she has, saw a section called _skills_ (which apparently is the term for the "tricks" so to speak). So it was like a "greatest hits" list of her hardest tricks. And a bunch of them are just called "Biles" (or Biles II, the sequel) and have descriptions like "Biles is the only woman to have performed the Biles vault"
@@metallsnubben I swear that all those noodles going on about the boxer being a man are going to go off about her being part bird or something. I cannot even begin to imagine the level of devotion and sacrifice it takes to be the GOAT in a sport that hard. How long before they stop calling it gymnastics and just start with "Bilesing?"
I just LOVE the fact that this young man is absolutely hi-LAR-ious without using a single cuss word! I've been cry-laughing through his whole set! 😂🤣😂😭🤣😂
I am not your target audience Josh. I am a white female senior citizen living in Indiana. But you make me laugh so hard!! I love everything about your comedy and get excited every time I see you post! Thank you thank you thank you!!
Only Josh can make me go from cracking up about ridiculous physical comedy to making me deeply ponder a societal assumption - and then back. The best kind of whiplash.
It almost seems like he's just having a really funny conversation, And then whenever he says serious stuff I haven't yet heard him say anything that I disagree with, he's never said anything racist or rude that I have heard. He seems like a really smart dude and it seems like comedy just comes super effortlessly to him and that's why he's been my favourite comedian lately. It just seems so genuine while still being hilarious.
@@susanheinz5804 Democrats are crazy with their racism victim hood. So desperate that they take an Indian as black. (Obama was half white as well.) Glad that Simone loves her Black job. But how many blacks are doing her job and getting paid for it? Obviously he wasn't talking about you!
"Treating Poverty like a culture" this was very well said! It is something that we do. Stay polite, and act like it's normal, whatever it is you see and don't make the person feel embarrassed so that you are welcomed back!
I just recently found this young man, and I can say without any doubt, he's the the one responsible for my sides hurting so bad from laughter. I love this guy and his delivery is spot on.

@alarin612 The Bridgerton sons have many hobbies & fencing is one. It is shown on screen too. However much more screen time is given to boxing & they spectate more than they participate. If you're going to say "this didn't happen on this show" it's best to be caught up with all the seasons and episodes. Now that said, nobody NEEDS to watch Bridgerton. It just strikes me if you want to be pedantic enough to correct people, at least be correct.
Years ago my husband and I went to see Buffy the Vampire Slayer at a place that served drinks. When we got home he spent the evening trying to do cartwheels. He was in some pain the next day. The last time I did a cartwheel i smacked my foot on a sturdy table. Simone has the most unimaginable strong body.
I’m 46 and recently, fell. The entire way down, I saw: the a/c vent, the wall, a doorknob, my keys, my dog (sitting with a slight head tilt), and a missing sock under the buffet.

I am "I grew up in the South before Child Protective Services" years old. My kids introduced me to your comedy, and I'm grateful!🙏😍🤩 Thank you for making me laugh so hard while washing dishes that my teenager could hear me over whatever he was listening to in his earbuds!👏🙏😅😂🤣
What I find impressive about this set is how polished it is even though it’s about stuff that just happened. It had the feel of a set that had been worked on and tested for awhile and not the less polished evening monologue of a late night show.
I was raised in the 70s before protective services..my best friend was raised by her great grandmother who we called Big Mama..if she and I got into trouble together we had to pick a switch...together..I can tell you we better never, bring Big Mama a switch that would break..or we had to repick and get double..thankfully we didn't have to pick switches very often..there was a weeping willow tree across from our houses, and that was the tree we had to choose from, and pick off all the leaves..before we got a woopin..the process of choosing was way worse than the woopin..I loved that woman until the day she died. ❤
I was there as a birthday surprise, because I did not know where I was going I looked at the HUGE crowd. I saw young, old, people of all races, preppy to grunge, conservative to eccentric people. There was no way for me to guess. I did NOT look at the marquee and the people in line said nothing. When the two people came on stage I closed my ears, and then figured out it was comedy. I closed my ears until the HEADLINER came on and it was JOSH. I was excited, I almost screamed. I smiled so hard and laughed even harder. Great show, did not disappoint. The crowd that was there to see him is a testament to how good he is. We were able to met him and he is uber nice. GREAT SHOW from one of my favorite young comedians!!!!!!
Laughing till I cried! Got me going with "pick your switch"! I am 65, white and raised in Memphis Tn. Southern Grandmas in general practiced that same dark art of discipline.
@@wolvmarine313 Wrong. She is Indian, but identifies as black. Has several clips of her proudly saying she is Indian. Are you seriously letting her new campaign southern accent deceive you?
I suffer from paranoia. And I basically sabotaged my own career,because I was afraid that very evil people rule the world and I would be used and abused by them if I pursued my career. Seeing such a decent human being like you josh,I know that’s not true. You inspired me to revitalize my music. Which actually gave me a little peace in this chaotic world. Thank you so much. I think you’re the next Dave Chappelle and I got tears rolling down my cheek as I say this. I love you bro 🙏🏽❤️💯
@@liliththerapper hey its okay, yes a few very rich billionaires have considerable influence, but they don't determine your path exactly. we can all change things for the better. find your community and keep making music even if you only have ten listeners its about what it does for your wellbeing
I think the funniest part about the eating in the dark story is that no one else said anything about the dark, and no one thought to turn on the flashlight on their phone and set it on the table as a light.
I think that would help but the range span of the light wouldn’t that great especially if it’s lying flat on the table. Lighting Candles would be the better option. Most people I know keep candles and real deal flashlights in case of power outages from storms.
Task done - in spite of tech making me have to redo part of it 🙄 . Took 3x as long but I earned it. Watched the set for my reward! 🎉 This was a good show. I’m so glad to see Josh commanding this big venue. Keep up the good grind everyone. The right hard work pays off!
Dear Josh Johnson, It was great and surreal to see my favourite duo, you and Logan, live, in Atlanta this past Saturday!!!! Every so often during your show, I almost had to pinch myself to confirm that I wasn't dreaming! Thank you guys for coming!!!!
I am SO HAPPY I have found your comedy. What a gift you have, Josh...I hope to see you live someday soon. Your ability to blend everyday life observation with social commentary reminds me of the late, great Paul Mooney.
Hi Josh, I just subscribed to your channel yesterday and thanks for the acknowledgement! You are just HILARIOUS! 😆 I'm just CRACKING UP & CRYING at the same time!! 🤣 You are such a DELIGHT! I'm so very Proud of you!! I am definitely a FAN!!You are so handsome with so much swagger and like I said in my previous post, you really remind me of my son & I'm so proud of him too!! You're an amazing young Black Man!! Keep on doing what you're doing because it's working!!! 👍
Especially when I'm struggling with what I like. I don't want to be rude but if the texture/saltiness/not used to it is hurting me, it feels like forever.
Have you ever been to a black church? How about a black owned business? Attended an HBCU? Probably not because if you had, youd likely know what a BLACK JOB is. When someone mentions black unemployment at historic lows under Trump or massive funding for HBCUs that had never been done before TRUMP it's not black empowerment. And during the debate, it was the guy from the party that started the KKK, founded and enforced Jim Crow laws, built unstable and unreliable section 8 project houses, killed Lincoln, and the party of the same guy who said if you don't vote for him you ain't black and introduced the Crime Bill of the 90s to keep control over the "racial jungle" that mentioned black jobs first. That would be the Democrat party. The party that has been promising you better for 60 years and never coming through and saying it's because the other side when they have had control the MAJORITY of the time and when they have the congress and presidency they fund corporations and increase taxes and if you don't agree with them you are racist and sexist and that same party is now behind Harris who is so Black now, she married a white Jewish guy and is step-mom to his white babies but wants you to kill your black babies and encourages you to do so. Take your emotions out of it and look at what they have done and stop listening to what they say and you will be finally woke. When you wake I hope you aren't sad for being so naive to let them trick you and lie to you. Republicans have their problems too but the dems are just evil. They will destroy this country and they don't care about the people they just want the power.
His keen observational skills and intelligence coming together as his comedic skills and timing is like no other of his generation. Great to see you grow week over week!
I felt so attacked as a French when he said "the first Black woman to get a gold medal in fencing"! I know many Americans do not care about fencing (that's ok) and font know anything about other countries (that's NOT okay), but Laura Flessel is a LEGEND in France, and I think she's pretty famous worldwide, as far as "fencing famous" carries you. She's the only fencer most people in France can name anyway. Just a small comment to educate you. BTW, her first two gold medals were won in the USA, in Atlanta in 1996!
Your beef is with education structure on a grand scale. Plus not everyone watches the Olympics to recall names. I can say it’s possible you’re not familiar with what goes on here in America regarding African Americans from what you just said here & that would still be due to information available or lacking. You gotta be here to know just like we got to be there to know is what it is.
I feel so proud of all these black queens and goddesses. I am proud and happy as a black woman to see this happening in history. Shine all you black queens. ❤❤❤
@@bonnieplattner3094 Kamala !! 🤨🤔 She is not a Black Women . Asian American… Jamaican *COOLIE* Dad ( Caribbean of Indian descent) Indian Mom.. = Indian Kamala She became black during the presidential campaign… PANDERING TO THE BLKS & like suckers the blacks went right with it!

Well I mean taking your phone out at dinner would just be rude, y'know?
You think this fellow would invest in some cheap 🕯️ candles to keep around if reg occurence 😂
@@HellaGustI mean you could put your phone face down on the table and then face the flashlight up so there’s a light source
I mean there are pop up dinner experiences called dinner in the dark so it wouldn’t be implausible
I am "I grew up in the South before Child Protective Services" years old.
My kids introduced me to your comedy, and I'm grateful!🙏😍🤩
Thank you for making me laugh so hard while washing dishes that my teenager could hear me over whatever he was listening to in his earbuds!👏🙏😅😂🤣
Haha - we used to get spanked in Kroger's if we needed it, and the other women shoppers stood around watching and approving. 🤣
My mom made ME doing the dishes when I was a teenager.
Think about it, lady.
Love it. I'm that old, too, and from the South.
What I find impressive about this set is how polished it is even though it’s about stuff that just happened. It had the feel of a set that had been worked on and tested for awhile and not the less polished evening monologue of a late night show.
I was raised in the 70s before protective services..my best friend was raised by her great grandmother who we called Big Mama..if she and I got into trouble together we had to pick a switch...together..I can tell you we better never, bring Big Mama a switch that would break..or we had to repick and get double..thankfully we didn't have to pick switches very often..there was a weeping willow tree across from our houses, and that was the tree we had to choose from, and pick off all the leaves..before we got a woopin..the process of choosing was way worse than the woopin..I loved that woman until the day she died. ❤
Josh is so talented at storytelling, that dinner story is freaking hilarious but his delivery made it like 1000% funnier 😂🤣
I was there as a birthday surprise, because I did not know where I was going I looked at the HUGE crowd. I saw young, old, people of all races, preppy to grunge, conservative to eccentric people. There was no way for me to guess. I did NOT look at the marquee and the people in line said nothing. When the two people came on stage I closed my ears, and then figured out it was comedy. I closed my ears until the HEADLINER came on and it was JOSH. I was excited, I almost screamed. I smiled so hard and laughed even harder. Great show, did not disappoint. The crowd that was there to see him is a testament to how good he is. We were able to met him and he is uber nice. GREAT SHOW from one of my favorite young comedians!!!!!!
Live performance roulette? I love it.
What a treat!
I was at this show, and it was phenomenal!! 🔥🔥🔥👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
@@normette I was at Friday's show. Fire.
Josh is such a great story teller and comedian. He keeps me laughing and thinking. Thanks Josh 👍
Laughing till I cried! Got me going with "pick your switch"! I am 65, white and raised in Memphis Tn. Southern Grandmas in general practiced that same dark art of discipline.
"You don't need to whisper, it's just dark." Made me actually spit my tea out 😂
Another Joshday brings the joy to the masses!! I Can't wait!!
Just found your channel. You are hysterical!
Great routine. But you had me at "pick your switch" 🤣🤣🤣
I used to live in SF and went to comedy clubs often, Josh Tuesdays lets me feel like I'm back in the dark room, laughing with strangers. ❤
U lived in small forward 🤨
@@kingtut8133 😄
So nice- especially in the time we are currently living. He is like magic for laughter.😂
I've not had the opportunity to go to one yet, but that sounds really really nice :]
That's the joy of being there isn't it? Not just the person doing the funnies, it's enjoying them with others.
The old Richard Pryor reference of the bush in the backyard still resonates. I’m 62 and remember that bush in our backyard. It’s funny now, but…….😢
We all remember that burning butt bush‼️ At 66 I 😢 remember ok?!
The camera cut to the fencing hand was wild 😂
when he said, "cause she heard him....." that alone killed me....the delivery ya'll 🤣
Apparently, I've been under a rock cause I am just discovering this man.I am in stitches.New subscriber love it!!!!😂😂😂
the level of his genius is crazy
Picking a switch was definitely psychological torture! It had to be good enough but not TOO good 😂
Trevor has a similar bit on that
@@LindaC616 So did Richard Pryor. No one owns childhood experiences.
@abasdarhon okay, but don't expect people to laugh as uproariously as when they heard it the first time 10 years ago
@@LindaC616 it is funnier depending on who telling the story.
So good to see your audience are completely invested in your career. You are such a talented comedian!
You might be the GOAT as a comedian.
Simone is absolutely phenomenal, and an incredible sweetheart too! Her season on Dancing With the Stars was just precious!
As soon as he mentioned Kamala Harris an ad for her popped up. I mean talk about comedic timing 😂. Great show as always 🎉
I was watching her Pennsylvania speech and announcement of the VP while this was on and missed the live!😅
Same! 😂
Too bad she identified as Indian. Oh well.
@@wolvmarine313 Wrong. She is Indian, but identifies as black. Has several clips of her proudly saying she is Indian. Are you seriously letting her new campaign southern accent deceive you?
@@oslonorway547
Absolutely not. I know she's a fraud, hence my comment for him to not include her in his show for next time.
I suffer from paranoia. And I basically sabotaged my own career,because I was afraid that very evil people rule the world and I would be used and abused by them if I pursued my career. Seeing such a decent human being like you josh,I know that’s not true. You inspired me to revitalize my music. Which actually gave me a little peace in this chaotic world. Thank you so much. I think you’re the next Dave Chappelle and I got tears rolling down my cheek as I say this. I love you bro 🙏🏽❤️💯
You were not wrong they do rule the world and they did that to me.
What happened if you do not mind sharing?
@@TinaSibiya you make music?
@@liliththerapper hey its okay, yes a few very rich billionaires have considerable influence, but they don't determine your path exactly. we can all change things for the better. find your community and keep making music even if you only have ten listeners its about what it does for your wellbeing
@@jed641 thank you so much 🙏🏽🔥💯❤️
My man! Those stages are getting bigger and bigger 🎉
They are! Good on him!
I think the funniest part about the eating in the dark story is that no one else said anything about the dark, and no one thought to turn on the flashlight on their phone and set it on the table as a light.
I think that would help but the range span of the light wouldn’t that great especially if it’s lying flat on the table. Lighting Candles would be the better option. Most people I know keep candles and real deal flashlights in case of power outages from storms.
It felt like an Atlanta episode lmao
@@anndeecosita3586 the light would be facing up. Much brighter than a candle which not many people have.
That's how you know it's a bit, not true story
Yesss!! I’m doing an all-nighter. This is my reward for completing my next Task! Back in 15 mins!
Congrats 👏👏 how's it going? 😁
Task done - in spite of tech making me have to redo part of it 🙄 . Took 3x as long but I earned it. Watched the set for my reward! 🎉
This was a good show. I’m so glad to see Josh commanding this big venue. Keep up the good grind everyone. The right hard work pays off!
Dear Josh Johnson, It was great and surreal to see my favourite duo, you and Logan, live, in Atlanta this past Saturday!!!! Every so often during your show, I almost had to pinch myself to confirm that I wasn't dreaming! Thank you guys for coming!!!!
I am SO HAPPY I have found your comedy. What a gift you have, Josh...I hope to see you live someday soon. Your ability to blend everyday life observation with social commentary reminds me of the late, great Paul Mooney.
Josh Johnson for president!!!
this guy is freaking brilliant i hope he sticks around for a very long time
You did the Switch Joke. Plus fencing.
Thank you.❤
😂😂😂😂😂😂.
This man releases a special every fucking week. It’s incredible
Don’t forget the USA women’s basketball team and Gabby Thomas .
Hi Josh, I just subscribed to your channel yesterday and thanks for the acknowledgement! You are just HILARIOUS! 😆 I'm just CRACKING UP & CRYING at the same time!! 🤣 You are such a DELIGHT! I'm so very Proud of you!! I am definitely a FAN!!You are so handsome with so much swagger and like I said in my previous post, you really remind me of my son & I'm so proud of him too!! You're an amazing young Black Man!! Keep on doing what you're doing because it's working!!! 👍
Josh, YOU MADE IT TO 600+K SUBSCRIBERS!!!! ❤❤❤
Should easily be a million .Push everyone to like and subscribe. With the numbers Google is more than recognition. Can be a really good piece of cash
Why there aren't over 1 million subscribers is a head scratch
Fuck, i didn't noticed! Yeaaaaah! 🙏🏻 🙌🏻 ❤️
His delivery is
A FXCKING 1
I salute you Josh Johnson my black brother on all your great success. I honor you also as you honor black women. You are a black king also. ❤❤❤
"and it had been SOME TIME" I feel you dude. I've had dinners like this. I love you. Spreading like I can.
Especially when I'm struggling with what I like. I don't want to be rude but if the texture/saltiness/not used to it is hurting me, it feels like forever.
You had me ROLLING with laughter. ‘They had to be watching that interview like regular people watch the powerball.’ 👏🏾
Have you ever been to a black church? How about a black owned business? Attended an HBCU? Probably not because if you had, youd likely know what a BLACK JOB is. When someone mentions black unemployment at historic lows under Trump or massive funding for HBCUs that had never been done before TRUMP it's not black empowerment. And during the debate, it was the guy from the party that started the KKK, founded and enforced Jim Crow laws, built unstable and unreliable section 8 project houses, killed Lincoln, and the party of the same guy who said if you don't vote for him you ain't black and introduced the Crime Bill of the 90s to keep control over the "racial jungle" that mentioned black jobs first. That would be the Democrat party. The party that has been promising you better for 60 years and never coming through and saying it's because the other side when they have had control the MAJORITY of the time and when they have the congress and presidency they fund corporations and increase taxes and if you don't agree with them you are racist and sexist and that same party is now behind Harris who is so Black now, she married a white Jewish guy and is step-mom to his white babies but wants you to kill your black babies and encourages you to do so. Take your emotions out of it and look at what they have done and stop listening to what they say and you will be finally woke. When you wake I hope you aren't sad for being so naive to let them trick you and lie to you. Republicans have their problems too but the dems are just evil. They will destroy this country and they don't care about the people they just want the power.
Josh, how have you not gotten a netflix special ? Not only are your jokes funny, but the delivery is spot on........
His keen observational skills and intelligence coming together as his comedic skills and timing is like no other of his generation. Great to see you grow week over week!
My great grandmother used to braid switches together. My family is lit.
Holy shit 😳🤣
So was your legs/ass haha
I still reference that, but I only talk to my cats and I’m pretty sure they don’t give a fuck. 😂
You are AMAZING!!! I'm hurting from laughter!!! Love your story telling & punchlines. Perfect delivery!!
Black women are having an incredible summer!!!❤
Yeah, no food deserts starving them....because only the bougie count as black.
I felt so attacked as a French when he said "the first Black woman to get a gold medal in fencing"! I know many Americans do not care about fencing (that's ok) and font know anything about other countries (that's NOT okay), but Laura Flessel is a LEGEND in France, and I think she's pretty famous worldwide, as far as "fencing famous" carries you. She's the only fencer most people in France can name anyway.
Just a small comment to educate you.
BTW, her first two gold medals were won in the USA, in Atlanta in 1996!
Your beef is with education structure on a grand scale. Plus not everyone watches the Olympics to recall names. I can say it’s possible you’re not familiar with what goes on here in America regarding African Americans from what you just said here & that would still be due to information available or lacking. You gotta be here to know just like we got to be there to know is what it is.
He said black woman, but he meant black American woman.
That is amazing, ty for sharing😸
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laura_Flessel-Colovic
SHES A POLITICIAN TOO?!
I didn't know that, and I lived in Atlanta during the Centennial Olympics, but didn't watch any of the fencing competitions. Thank you!
I feel so proud of all these black queens and goddesses. I am proud and happy as a black woman to see this happening in history. Shine all you black queens. ❤❤❤
Oh and the satisfaction of a sharp Black woman bringing down the orange man!
@@bonnieplattner3094 too bad she has almost the same policies as that jackass. I hope her VP can bring her a bit more left.

Kamala !! 🤨🤔 She is not a Black Women .
Asian American…
Jamaican *COOLIE* Dad ( Caribbean of Indian descent)
Indian Mom..
= Indian Kamala
She became black during the presidential campaign… PANDERING TO THE BLKS & like suckers the blacks went right with it!
@@DamonBadgett..Each to his own but I personally disagree with you about her policy.
Tell you something else I think about. Years ago a friend went up against Prosecutor Harris. Particularly because he was more hubris than humility, I remember what he said:
Thank You. You had me laughing with tears, at the no lights dinner. You are by far, my favorite comedian. 😂🤣 And it’s a Black Women’s Summer, Fall, and the next 4 years. ❤️🤍💙
when my grandma told me to go *pick a switch* one time, i just never came back inside and she forgot all about it.
You’re doing a fabulous job on The Daily Show.👏🏽🤣
My my, I'm 70 seconds in & I had to pause & hop right to the comments cause no way could I have seen the light bill comin!!!!!!!! Spit water all over my phone screen!!! Josh!!!! You a comedic nut rapped up in genius & impeccable timing/delivery!!!
Okay, back to the video. . .😂😭🤣🤪😘
The zoom in on the hand at 12:22, paired with the sound effects! 🤣
josh is phenomenal, but so is the camera work 💜
