this seemingly simple routine at the improv in 2004 he perfected & eventually in 2005 turned it into his incredible & unforgettable HBO special “one night stand”. it blows my mind
He’s the greatest comic of all time. Not only does he have the strongest stand up on stage, but he’s a great intellectual, great director , great writer, does his own editing, changed show business for comics forever with that unique deal with FX. Led the way for the rest of them. Also the show louie is a masterpiece
I've been following Louis for years now. It's great to see such a hard working comedian find so much success. The best stand up going and great to his fans.
*_"That's not the title of the song, you fucking idiot."_* Good lord...I absolutely love how he talks about his kids in his jokes. Anyone with a brain knows he loves his kids more than he loves himself. It's obvious. But THAT is why the brutal way he talks about them...is so goddamn funny. I'm not a parent myself...but I have a feeling the only people who _don't_ find those jokes funny...are people without kids.
Andrew Orozco he might be funny but the accusations do matter. Women are people dude. Imagine it was your mom or sister he took advantage of. Imagine if it was your girlfriend, or someone else you love.
0:47 Louis CK openly admits to his problem with masterbating in public behind his wifes back!!.... So Honest!!... You cant be mad at the guy!!.... The Greatest!!
Thank you for introducing me to closed captioning. I like pretty much everything Louis C.K. does, but reading the captions in this video..... hysterical.
Absolutely, i sometimes recite a comedian’s jokes or whatever and its not funny on its own. Its funny when you add their attitude abs other elements to it.
@@redblazer29go back to when? You do realize you just did the exact same thing because in math, you can add and do a little thing called subtract-shee-own. Ever heard of it?
Louis is the best comedian of all time** in terms of standup, being on that stage and writing the jokes for that set, ability to do crowd work if they choose to. There’s a big difference between saying someone’s your favorite comedian just because you listen to their podcast. Podcast doesn’t make you a comedian. its two entirely different mediums.
The reason Louis hated his wifes stories was cause there was too many of them. "PICK ONE STORY!" And then he goes telling about 20 different random stories 😂 I wish he'd come back. Best comedian all time ❤
came from a video where he complained about people using the word 'hilarious'...aaand the description here says "hilarious comedian". Perfect! Still gotta admit he actually is hilarious.
I love seeing the evolution of his "why?" routine. I saw the newest one first then this one and I could see the foundation for that great part. Very cool.
you know how they say you have to be careful what you say around women because it will inevitably be used against you. well if you live with a comedian I guess you better watch what you say because it will inevitably be used for comedy.
yeah man. Comedy is an art. You've got to practice practice practice. I remember seeing this guy on Comedy Central Presents and now he's arguably the best in the business today.
I remember seeing Louis CK do his HBO half hour when it first aired in like 2006, me and my dad were watching. We oved it. By the time he got to the bit about his wife not staying on topic, I was like this guy is gonna be big someday. So relatable, my mom to a t. I was right. Hate to be a hipster, but I was a Louis fan before it was mainstream.
I agree about Sebastian ... he’s really become cookie cutter comic now like Kevin hart . Once money rolls in they become more “universal” just to get more money I assume and not try to piss certain groups off... idk it sucks though.
If you're downloading movies off the internet, you are only hurting the producers and the investors who are already millionaires, but not the regular staff who are definitley not holding stakes from its sale.
Tip to parents: If the kid starts asking "why" a bunch, then ask them "why do you think?" at critical junctures, get them to start thinking instead of responding, and look, now its a conversation
He added a bit to the blowing the demon in the halls bit. Demon in charge: You know you've got a whole eternity down here! You gotta pace yourself man! Don't just be freelancing in the hallways, blowin' demons and shit!
Everything I'll ever need to know about parenting I've learned from Louis C.K. First lesson: don't have kids. You may very well have saved my life, sir.
we we're having a nice easter and now we're not and it's because of you, hahahaha laughed so hard i had to replay half the vid because i missed it. :D :D :D
The bit on his kids questioning him to the point he doesn't know whats real, ended up in a philosophy text on Deleuze and Lacan by Aaron Schuster. This may be what's know as a fact fun, which as Jeff Green noted on Curb, most fun facts aren't 'fun'.
I just watched louis ck talk about how great it is to illegally download movies while waiting for my illegal download of "Louie" to finish. What a time to be alive!
Does anyone remember one joke that his accusers ever told? They were unfunny hacks who went to a hotel at 2 am and a guy asked if he could touch himself. They could have said no or left but they didn't. He did nothing wrong. If you are not grown enough to make decisions, at least wear a sign warning people.

Most fans of comedy will agree that Louis CK is one of the best comedians of all time. He keeps getting better all the time.
You were right.
He is THE greatest

@puccan479 Chapelle is better. Louie is top 10, though.
He aged like fine wine.
The "why" act gets me every time :D

Because the things that aren't can't be...
Why?
my favorite part is when he says "you cant have nothing isnt" i thought that wording was better
I've been following Louis for years now. It's great to see such a hard working comedian find so much success. The best stand up going and great to his fans.
I still feel the same to this day
One of if not the best to ever do it
Some would say no, but I say this comment aged pretty well.
First time I've seen "13 years ago" on youtube
Edit; I know it's 15 years now. I know how time works. I didn't need 50 of you to remind me.
Same
I've been watching videos on UA-cam since it was launched, and these days when I see that a video was uploaded 13 or 14 years ago it makes me smile.
First thought was “that’s not cool”
And next year will be the first time you see "14 years ago" on youtube
D Lux next year he will likely be dead.
this video was posted a month after UA-cam opened to the public. legendary
his hair blends in with the brick background

lol doing the same thing right now 😉
Whenever he speaks about his kids I always imagine his daughters in Louie.
I wonder if that's a bummer comment for both of his real daughters.
Vivek Vishwanath what an imaginative person you are.
Haha! So did I! And the theme song before and after his skit lol

Thank-you for the lift today -
Looking forward, as are millions of others.

Good lord I think i learnt English for this specific reason of listening to him. I think this Is the best stand-up I could ever imagine
Exactly, one of my biggest motivations
Good lord, me too mate..
He has that crowd laughing non stop
I cried laughing from 10:59 all the way till the end.
Truly the best the world of comedy currently has to offer.
Still?
@@elitecrewmate4559 probably still the best. But there are other great stand-ups who have gotten big, particularly Bill Burr.
Don’t care about the accusation he’s a legend !
Andrew Orozco What accusations? He admitted to it. I still love Louie, but let’s not pretend he didn’t say the accusations were all true.
@@rjmiller9144 They were true, even though he did nothing wrong
The consensual sex life while being a celebrity accusation? Yeah let's leave that to the feminazis to care about.
Andrew Orozco he might be funny but the accusations do matter. Women are people dude. Imagine it was your mom or sister he took advantage of. Imagine if it was your girlfriend, or someone else you love.
What accusations?
"we have this rule about not saying any negative things" ...aaaaaand, they're divorced.
Probably bc of all the jokes XD
Or truths being them 👀
👁️👄👁️
agreed...i've seen him twice and he's never failed to impress. i love louis he's the best
"It was about a tomato the WHOLE time."

Why?
Funny to hear his material mostly clean. Still works.
What 5 second segment of the video are you referring to? LOL
Today its clean.
your in for a surprise lol
How is blowing a demon penis "clean"?
Ex0dus111 “shut the fuck up and eat your fries!” Good clean family humor 😂👍
If the kid keeps saying "why?" over and over, just say, "why not?".

Love these old recs
I think it's interesting how important delivery actually is, as compared to the actual content.
Absolutely, i sometimes recite a comedian’s jokes or whatever and its not funny on its own. Its funny when you add their attitude abs other elements to it.
That's why it's almost impossible to tell Norm's jokes, without the expert delivery you're just reciting some dad jokes
