To unrelatedly answer, probably someone who bought a car that’s out of their budget because it was on great promotion but they still can’t afford the high grade gas that car needs so... midium grade gas it is(my dad)
I had to reevaluate myself when he said that. I simply can't understand why there would be a middle grade of gas...? Why have I never thought about this? I need to go to bed
I really hope you continue to write new material and keep putting yourself out there. I’ve been following you for a while and have been waiting for you to blow up. Love ya Brian
I'm worried this sudden surge of uploads is you leaving a pile of food for us to feed on while you're gone for a very long time. Don't leave us, Brian. I need you.
Im digging the starving comedian look😉. Just waiting for more articules of clothing to magically make its way off your dorkable bod😍. Hope to see more of you on Will & Grace. Also im guilty of using the middlw grade gas💵🚙
@@lfk6370 depending on the car, it can prevent the knock sensor from getting fucked. It's a joke for people who don't know about cars lol. And paying for premium is a big waste, it doesn't do shit if ur car isn't a high performance vehicle.
I feel like you were so nervous, and some of the pacing was a bit off, however the first half of the bits were really funny. I do enjoy your almost anti-joke style of comedy. So here's what I would suggest working on... 1. Figuring out the timing for the jokes to help the audience laugh and have room to breath. 2. I'm not sure if it was nerves or just the style you we're going for but you didn't make a whole lot of eye contact with the audience. I feel like that can sometimes make people uncomfortable, if you yourself look uncomfortable. 3. That's about it keep up the good work I love your stuff! 😘
“information is given to me in the beginning and i am not receiving it…its just high amounts of meaningless activity” REAL this is the experience watching superhero movies 😭
I’m so confused because this was like a decent set for sure like I genuinely laughed out loud a few times..but he did seem nervous and was that a character choice?? Is this a parody of stand up or is this real stand up?? either way I love you Brian you’re amazing and if this was a real set you’ve got some killer jokes in there and if it isn’t then you’re officially the best actor in the entire world bc those stage paces and the looking at your phone and everything is SO REAL
people don't really get this lmao, they're judging it like it's a Netflix special but it's just BJA trying out some bits in a short set on an audience, and it works great. the casual, off the cuff, don't give a shit attitude gives it a relaxed vibe, the jokes are funny, and the audience is obviously enjoying it.
I was a fan of your channel some years ago and this just made me remember why you are so great. Tonight expect me to re binge in all of your old videos, can't wait to see the ones I missed out
I am so glad you feel the same way about the Avengers bc i was honestly starting to think i was genuinely stupid bc i just cant seem to understand what is going on in any action movie ever
No, I don't like this, Brian. I love it! Oh my god, you just put into words how I feel about the Avengers movies (and most superhero movies tbh). I watched the first one and it legit felt like it lasted 5 hours. It was the first and last time I watched one.
This really captivated my attention all the way to the end, good job! The story telling was remarkable, and despite the delivery was awkward, it had some charm
Love all the jokes, they're really great. Would be a golden set if it was all strung together appropriately, legitimately better than most specials, it just needs to be organized and it would be perfect.
Knowing your UA-cam/Short films work, I find you less fun in a stand-up set, even though there are ideas which fit better on stage. Maybe it's a good way to test what jokes/stories works sometimes with a live audience. You're more in a story-teller approach on stage. And what I really like about your films is that you're a story-teller and a character at the same time. Both exercises are interesting to watch because we can learn a lot about the comedian/actor craft with what you share with us.
Auxilio Lacouture I feel like maybe it's because this focused on Brian's life, whereas the short films seem a little more absurd which allows for more exaggeration for comedic effect. I also prefer the short films but recognise that there's potential in stand up, it might just take a little more honing.
"who is buying that middle grade of gas?... this is unrelated, but" wow what a cold open

@@singasong785 I thought he was talking about buying mid-grade marijuana. People call it "gas".
@@Gringle_ he was lol
@@f_r_e_d nah

We love a lack of transitioning between unrelated topics
That’s just my brain
hahahahahah
Who's we?
We don't know the plot of football either
I really hope you continue to write new material and keep putting yourself out there. I’ve been following you for a while and have been waiting for you to blow up. Love ya Brian
Stanley Aviles me too !!!!
Ya we love ya Brian
Brian go BOOM
Same!
he deserves so much omg 🥺
i keep on waiting for this to become some kind of elaborate sketch
its not???
Life is a type of elaborate sketch....
I'm pretty sure it is
the set and everything is fake, the people in the front row and the people walking in front of the camera are all fake
It is.
I bet he made this stand up routine just to tell us that he has a boyfriend T.T 02:35
Omg 😭 all this time I thought he is single lol
Weird flex but okay
Nope that was to deflect criticism for an average performance. The gay card.
I'm worried this sudden surge of uploads is you leaving a pile of food for us to feed on while you're gone for a very long time. Don't leave us, Brian. I need you.
Brian is making doggo worry :(
That is exactly what he's doing and you know it
He did this once like a year ago. Very sad
The fact that your icon is a dog makes this comment hurt my heart
You and Stephanie NEED your own Netflix anthology series
HULU now in 2024 😉
you wish came true!
“The plot of football”.... GIRL LMAO
looking at ur phone to remember jokes is a big mood
Taking your coat off on stage.. power move
Jake Arnett omg yes
You have a bad case of dad wallet going on in that back pocket.
That's what fat stacks of cash do to a dad's wallet.
It’s a stylistic choice!
a good case henny
wherethefishlives Will you be my barber?
The mid grade gas joke is severely underrated, I was dying laughing from the start
Sam Pullman I didn't get it ☹️
@@winchylovespie.3.133 It's like... Who's buying that stuff, ya know?
@@locusarete3499 what is mid grade gas?
@@AlexandreSaintMartin the gas between regular and premium
It's the joke for people who don't get car shturff 😝
feeling BLESSED with all the recent content thank you
Hulie then he leaves us for months or a year
I didn't think this was gonna be an actual stand up thing I thought it'd be you pretending to do one
katy :o same lol
I'm not convinced that it isn't- but it's great either way :-)
@@MissKellyBean The impenetrable darkness of the audience silhouettes and the angle necessary to line up the people walking by makes me think so too.
I still think it is lol
SAME SJKGDHGDKSDJFG the first joke made me think he was gonna do a seinfeld thing.
doing stand-up on such a sore knee.......an icon
Gimlinti he has 147% mobility he’s fine
finally someone accurately put into words how I feel watching superhero movies lol
ME TOO
can you collab with Chris Fleming? you both are so amazing and it depresses me to think a collab isn't ever going to happen
this would demolish my ENTIRE bussy
Hi hello yes
PLEASE
YES!!
OMG YES this is actually so great of an idea, I hope it happens !!
The continuous wave of posts is really making my week so far
“I don’t know the plot of football”
I want that on a shirt
pls don't delete this in an hour lol
bja on studio audiences: “they’re really there”
just. profound.
i feel all your airport material in my soul
This is such meta satire that even your followers can’t tell 😂
Woah.... read it bb
I could listen to you talk about your mom for hours. I've been following your skits for years and I can't wait to see more standup!!
The avengers bit was probably the most relatable thing I've ever heard
How are people not getting that this is a satire _of_ stand-up lol.
tho tbh the comments giving him actual stand-up advice as if he is not acting do add to it ahahah
Finally!!! Thanks, thought I was going crazy for a moment
Abigail you face is really nice i just wish i am in your country so i can ask you out
It's not that obvious ...
yo that audience is literally photoshopped in there i stg is it just me or
I have an exam tomorrow and you’ve decided to consecutively upload I’m crying
The PLOT of football
I feel really seen.
Plot twist: His friend is allergic to muffins.
the football bit is too real for me omgg
This is genuinely a positive way to take your career.
I like how this looks so real, even the nervous moments and silences, good job as always :)
this is him literally doing stand up
Im digging the starving comedian look😉. Just waiting for more articules of clothing to magically make its way off your dorkable bod😍. Hope to see more of you on Will & Grace. Also im guilty of using the middlw grade gas💵🚙
whats the benefit of using mid grade gas i dont get it

watches for 2 seconds
*LIKES*
Just finished binge watching English Teacher 😀
I think SOMEONE has an ear kink...
Genesis of Brian Jordan Alvarez humour. This is a historical document. And I love it.
i loved how relaxed this felt, some standup comedians really overdo it but this seemed really conversational and chill whilst still being hilarious
Ayyyy body dysmorphia representation, good to feel I’m not the only one.
The tipping in China story could have rocked if the delivery was a little stronger! Play up the weapon thing and it could be super funny

this is a sketch it isnt a real standup.. hes making fun of bad stand up comedians lol
@@pofty2 But he's listed as a comedian on this comedy club's website tho
Eza E This whole “pretending to be a bad comedian” is just a cop out and a lazy gimmick
@@hectorcarr3050 agreed. i was expecting better from him. was let down, won't be buying a ticket anytime soon :/
@@pabloplato bruh this was funny

This is so perfectly awkward. I love it so much
I love you Brian! Hearts are free! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I do miss the sketches and shit like this. Such a talent
I love that people are.laughing before the first joke. Very talented comic.
How did that opening not get more laughs! Keep it up, love seeing the variety of work you always have going on
Props for saying Cantonese and Mandarin instead of just Chinese.
the heavy flow and quality of this new content has cured me of any sign of future meningitis
Brian!!! Making me laugh out loud at work, hahaha
i love how relaxed this is
It's those slightly wet deep breaths in that get me. This is genius.
the body dysmoprhia thing about vincent van gogh is so fucking hilarious and relatable like... yeah girl I see you! the shapes!
Wow i never thought i'd see you doing stand-up but keep it up!!
This is really funny!! I liked your some movies joke and your football joke
As someone who deals with body dysmorphia off and on this made me really happy
4 years?? damn still funny i thought this was new haha
That was less a comedy set and more just a friend carching up with you. 😊
Love this. It's awesome seeing you branching out and trying so many different things.
He’s so talented - I hope his career totally explodes I’d loved to him in movies and on snl !
You should do this more often! I come by every once in a while because of how funny it is
I was a fan of your channel some years ago and this just made me remember why you are so great. Tonight expect me to re binge in all of your old videos, can't wait to see the ones I missed out
Really enjoying watching this comedian evolve his craft. Those eyes just kill me!
I hope Brian knows plenty of us have wished desperatelyyyyyyy to have his body
why. do. i. love. so. much. of. this. aesthetic.
OMG the football joke was so well delivered too. omgomgogm im dying its so funny
I love your youtube short films.
I am so glad you feel the same way about the Avengers bc i was honestly starting to think i was genuinely stupid bc i just cant seem to understand what is going on in any action movie ever
The bits are great, the pacing/tempo will just improve, I'm sure!
He's parodying stand up here
It's gotta be a mind fuck
I was there!! So good!! Love ya!
i love my stand-up comedian dad
I love your work
No, I don't like this, Brian. I love it!
Oh my god, you just put into words how I feel about the Avengers movies (and most superhero movies tbh). I watched the first one and it legit felt like it lasted 5 hours. It was the first and last time I watched one.
I love the vibes
This was absolutely amazing!! Oh my god. Im soo shook this was too good. Im glad you're trying different things too.
I just referred to Travic Kelce's games as "shows" talking to my partner so the football thing is very relatable to me 😅
This really captivated my attention all the way to the end, good job! The story telling was remarkable, and despite the delivery was awkward, it had some charm
If you still need to check your phone to look at your notes, maybe ham that up?
god that avengers bit is so goddamn relatable lmao
Maybe not the best comedy set ever, but he has a great talent and he is adorable! Kisses!!
This is like an amalgum of many his sketches :O
a lot of people are failing to realize that this is a sketch and not real stand-up. he's making fun of bad stand-up, you guys.
Uuuh he's listed as a comedian on this comedy club's website tho
no I think this is just him being a little off his game, lol
there is probably someone in the audience being tortured with watching nearly boiling water for 48 hours
Brian looks really good in a tank top...
Let's all watch Doubt and then watch Legally Blonde.
Love all the jokes, they're really great. Would be a golden set if it was all strung together appropriately, legitimately better than most specials, it just needs to be organized and it would be perfect.
That money part is so true ahaha i like don't buy clothes or new shoes or something and then end up spending my money on food. Again
changing call me by your name to The Hours (2002) is CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT

hi Brian just want to say your videos make my day, watching them when I’m sad makes my day 100x better! hope things are well
I really appreciate The Hours shout out, because I am Nicole Kidman playing Virginia Woolf, narrating Meryl Streep and Julianne Moore's life.
I love you Brian!!! Getting the shirt tonight, you're amazing
Exactly how I feel about football and avenger movies ! Lol 😂 dying !!!!
Should be a sit down set because sitting is the opposite of standing (and running around and hanging from a barbell)
Wow! 10 minute set! Pretty damn good!
this is genius
Loooove! Bummed I missed this show I need to stay in the loop 🙃
