"That was even handed. I'm a good person, I treat everyone the same". It would be funnier if I didn't see SO MANY people that think like this on a daily basis.
The thing about Acaster is, his work is hugely prolific- This special was 2 and a half HOURS in one shot, and his last special released was a four one-hour package called "Repertoire." He also writes for TV and has written two books. The guy is brilliant in live and improv situations and is one of the great talk, quiz, or panel show guests of all time. Personally, I'd put him over Will Farrel or John Mulaney or and JIm Carrey. Do yourself a favor and go down the rabbit hole. Just look up his James Acaster Classic Scrapes clips. There are hours of stories of his weird fucking life that he puts together like Spaulding Grey. He is a very good storyteller.
Repertoire was old material from previous tours. He rerecorded them all at once to release on Netflix, but they were written over the span of four years.
@@thal0de Oh absolutely, just wanted to point out that he didn't actually write all four shows at once :) if he had, he really should have seen his 2017 breakdown coming.
funny cause his classic clips are actually the way I found him. For some reason I can't remember anymore I was watching hours of big fat quiz oty and 8 out of 10 cats does comedy and immediately fell in love with him. He is superb and definetely the best comedian I've ever seen. But then again I'm only 18, not english mother tongue and don't watch comedians regularly
His bit about the trans community is absolutely on point. Yes, comedy is supposed to challenge people. It's supposed to challenge people who actually need challenging. The establishment, authority figures, people who think they're untouchable. "Challenging" a group of people who are challenged on a daily basis for simply existing is not comedy, it's just bullying.
@@Vexfer Even apart from it being wrong.. it’s been done again and again and again. It’s boring. It’s not new or interesting AND it’s a sucky thing to do
You can really see how James has grown into himself in the last few years, not only here, but also e.g. on panel shows. It's less acting strange and silly, and instead being way more authentic while still remaining intensely funny. I like it.

@@thewizardssleeve119 “how are trans people oppressed”? Well funny you should ask. Whenever a person comes out as trans there is always an overwhelming amount of abuse from right wing commentators and people who get mad because they don’t understand them. Trans rights are consistently being either taken away or not given to in the first place, the trans ban from the military, the lack of unisex toilets, lack of medical care because they are trans etc. The hysteria when trans people are in the bathroom of their choice is always upsetting and overwhelming for the trans person. The lack of understanding by the general public on trans people and how gender is fluid so many will refuse to even accept them as their preferred gender. That doesn’t even go into just general discrimination when applying for jobs and every day life like verbal and physical abuse
He’s so good…really love this clip. I’m also a fan of the podcast he does with Ed Gamble. They are two very funny guys that put out great content consistently every week. Oh, and they also seem to be nice guys.
I'd put him up against Richard Ayoade personally. There's a clip of them going at it on Acaster and Widdicomb's show "Hypothetical" that is pure gold. They have an awkward-off to see who is the most awkward comic in the game. Ayoade wins for sure. It's really, really funny.
The Stewart Lee influence really comes through strong on some of these clips. Not even sure these are the best bits of the show...difficult to take out 10 minutes though, the whole show was gold.
James became my favourite person as soon as he started talking about Gervais. I hate him with a passion and it doesn’t happen enough lmfao (The office is the only thing I enjoyed of his but even then, I hated him in that)
I was actually a fan of Gervais since the beginning, and I still think this set is funnier, smarter and fresher than anything Ricky's done in ages, and it's 100% fair criticism. I honestly don't understand people who fly into a rage because someone points out that a comedian they like has gone a bit hacky & out of touch. It's like they're being forced to experience ego death if they acknowledge their favorite entertainers aren't perfect people.
Watched Gervais make a bit for 5 minutes that were basically just 'aren't fat people disgusting' without a single punchline. In the same show he did make some good jokes about christianity but honestly not anything a thousand other comedians haven't said before
@@dumbdumber7203 For the record I said that because you are defending and condoning a transphobic man, not because you like another comedian more. Opinions are fine, bigotry is not.
Chapelle deserves to hear the intro too apparently. I stopped watching his new special before it got to that part but YAY James Acaster being a wonderful person 💕
Yeah all Chapelles bit did was highlight how stupid James's opening was lol and your comment also highlights the problem Chapelle was talking about. But sure everyone else is the problem lol.
@Fitz "You could try thinking logically, like me, the most logical person who ever was; the clearly cis guy who knows more about trans stuff than any and every trans person who was, is, and will be. The clearly not medical professional who knows more than every researcher and doctor in the world who unanimously agree that trans people exist, are not mentally ill, and should transition. Be logical like me, the logic man. Only listen to me. And Dave Chappelle." Quit whining. Easily the least convincing angle you could possible come from. There's a reason everybody doesn't listen to you all anymore.
How do you know what Chapelle said in his special if you dont watch it? It doesnt matter to me whether you agree or disagree with what he said but judging it without even knowing what it is seems foolish. Im assuming you heard or read about it through other sources, maybe even clips of the special all cut up and out of context. I think it would be wise to try and form your own opinions on stuff and not just subscribe to an idiology that tells you how to feel and respond in every situation
ive always looked at james and thought "why is his face so familiar" i think he looks like a greek god idk why but im right anyways nice to see james speaking out on transphobia
to be fair, I don't think it's about transphobia at all. I don't think Gervais is transphobic and - yeah, I know this is an unpopular one - neither Chappelle. I just think this is a question of empathy. This was the point of his rant, the search for the edge even if someone's gonna get hurt from that, and not being able to get into other people's shoes
@@stramurto I think most people I know would consider "Doing something trans people will get hurt by anyway because you have no empathy towards trans people." to be a transphobic act.

You're the kind of person who insults people by saying "oh what a snowflake" when they call you out on bullying, but then reacts like this when someone even mildly disagrees with you. It is punching down if you make fun of a group that is constantly bullied. And honestly, most comedy is "punching" one way or another. comedy that's punching up is funny, punching down is cheap and reliant on bigotry. Way to start a fight over such a lighthearted comment.

James Acaster always looks like he's been awake for 36 hours and is currently experiencing the worst jet lag of his life
I think this is one of the reasons I like his stand up so much :)
