ua-cam.com/video/wOhCzjJ8Kqc/v-deo.html yea this was funny though right.
You guys are losers. Why go after dice now? How dare you!
Lolol. Betas be crying. 😊😊😊
That disgusting piece of sh*t mockumentary was HATESPEECH against a man that did nothing but comedy!
All jokes are jokes but all jokes aren’t funny 🤷🏾♂️
The sinister soundtrack lmfao. Its comedy from a different era, hes not a serial killer
Yeah back when America was full of not overly sensitive people and people who actually liked comedy that punched down. Because let's look at the modern day failing punching up comedy its not funny and everyone just watches and facepalms saying I spent 60 bucks for this?
Hes still around.
a better era
That’s all these dark side episodes. That’s how they do it.
Vice news are scare stories for woke grandmas
"Almost like Nuremberg" 😂 thats one hell of a correlation.. From a guy who according to him.. Wasnt at EITHER! 😂
The LGBT community have a lot more in common with the Nazi’s than they think. They both love censorship!
bunch of baby comedians
Vice trying to make him out to be a murderer over some jokes. Dudes a legend. It's a joke not a cock, don't take it so hard
you're the exact problem this piece was about.
Ohhh, please, my sides are gonna split...
I’m watching this and that’s not the vibe I’m getting at all. It’s important to talk about this stuff. The musics a bit much, but it’s an interesting thing to think about
💯 facts
@@Colmets1 you’re a pud
RIP to my man Gilbert Gottfried
He was honest dice was like the Beatles 💪
@@angelvalle9963that’s an insult to the Beatles.
Well I'm glad they didn't find biased comedians to give their opinions. Who better to speak on Dices comedy than a gay man, black feminist and lesbian activist.
🏁💥⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
You muthafcukin right.
How is simply saying gay people are weird inherently funny? There's a difference between not taking a joke that is clever and well timed, and just not finding a cheap joke funny.
@@danster813 The cheapness of the joke is the bit cocksucka
Ford Fairlane. Comedy in the 80's was like that. Comedians made fun of everything. Nothing was off limits.
Fuckin rock n roll detective
And they think Dave chappelles stand up was offensive??
Useful idiots serve those harboring control.
If you have any firefighters or paramedics in your life, rhen you are fully aware of what they need to maintain sanity.
A dark sense of humor.
Vice is a sinking ship. Reports like these are why.
Nailed it. ESG money can't save them forever. Eventually they will collapse.
Dice portrayed a character; a stereotype of some guys in Brooklyn. If you lived in NY, you recognized it and probably knew a few guys just like that. And those guys were in his audiences at times but I"m sure they didn't see the character. They saw Dice as one of them.
Yes but if he’s “just a Brooklyn stereotype” then why bother paying to watch him? Just go to NY and watch a random a$$hole, it’s free. I think you’re missing the point. Playing a character well is making meaning from his act, a deeper sense of humor buried in that character. It really wasn’t there, the forward racism was the act, full stop.
@@VintageWhiteTerror im not missing the point. "Jack and Jill went up the hill both with a buck and a quarter, Jill came down with $2.50"... Does that make you angry? You have low emotional intelligence and you cannot take a joke! Thats my point!!!
@@VintageWhiteTerrorfunny tho
@@VintageWhiteTerror Your statement sounds so ridiculous go find a random person and follow him and listen to him talk in Brooklyn. The stereotype of this Brooklyn character would not let you follow them they would assault you. He was betraying a character I don't care if you don't like it that's what he was doing.
When I was younger I haaaated him. I still don't find his act funny but now I'm older and I understand that the joke is his personality and it's actually fun watching people not get it.
I didn't know i was going to get lectured. Just wanted some jokes.
In Soviet America, jokes are lectures.
These people deserve to be ridiculed

Leave it to Vice to get a bunch of never had the chance to be washed up comedians on talking about one of the most popular comedians of all time. Haters are gonna hate always.
But artie lange great guy
@@orlandoyero7151and Gilbert and Bobby, the others I can't even recognize even though I'm a huge comedy fan for more than 15 years
Facts. This is just another lame, one-sided hit piece... "zzzzz".
Except Bobby Lee. He's awesome and supports Dice.
Lisa Lampinelli calling herself "former insult comic" shocked me. She was amazing on the comedy central roasts. Isn't it funny how most of the mainstream comics went soft after the late 2010s? What the hell was Allred doing there? Lol.
Andrew Dice Clay and Sam Kinison were originals good or bad.
Funny thing, Kinison didn’t like Clay.
Two see the two of them in the same weekend, would have been epic
Sup Montana
Facts 💯 Legend.!!!!
Wow people who aren’t his target audience upset with his comedy… lol
Some of whom go after the "trailer trash" and "MAGA" people like ADC did after certain other groups... they are so blind to their own hatreds and prejudices. Unreal.
MY FAVORITE JOKE IS WHEN HE BANGED THE LIVER AND IT WAS FOR DINNER AAAYYOO😂
Some people can’t take a joke.
Some things aren't a joke
If you can't take one you might be one.
If you feel that way go listen to Paul mooney and be sure not to frown because I'm sure you can take a joke 😊
Only white people think this way
Bill Hicks, Carlin, Pryor, they're funny. Dice wasn't. He was funny for people who had 2 brain cells.
As a homosexual man I enjoyed and appreciated his comedy for what it was and nothing else.
..just like as a straight man, I love gay comedians like Matteo Lane and Jessica Kirson. ..because their comedy is great. That's all that should matter.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Don't deny a bunch of Virtue Signal Masters their claims to be offended on behalf of strangers!
@@clicheguevara5282 Jim Norton, Chrissie Distefano, also great gay comedians
@@AnoneemusNoename Lmfaooo 😂
@AnoneemusNoename I know Chrissie is a joke but there is a STRONG case to be made for Lil Jimmy being gay.
Monster rain.
Ok, VICE…we get it…Bobby Lee was the only guy available for all these little episodes of anything comedy related…genius!
What about the great Mary Beth Barone?!
Just saw him in Vancouver on the weekend. 3 sold out shows back to back, solid gold.
Please tell me that he still slams the rainbow flag crowd and that he hasn't backed down on that over the years.
@@tedmccarron
"..the rainbow flag crowd"..he just ain't funny..but what do I know?
@davedennison7386 I think he's hilarious and we need more of his humor.
@tedmccarron
Fair enough, I just don't find him funny, if i could be bothered I could name a hundred better comedians...but that's just my opinion..
@@davedennison7386 regardless of how funny he is, his anti-🏳️🌈 rants are badly needed in today's society.
It’s called comedy folks, in the immortal words of one Sergeant Hulka, “lighten up, Francis“.
Imagine thinking comedy is either being de facto racist for de jure racists or nothing
Lmao Lisa Lampaneli looks like Kieth Olberman bro
she used to idolize dice. She tried to be the female version of him for God's sake. These people are so insufferable.
Loved Dice back in the day. The pussified triggered people who don’t like him crack me up.
whoah look out we got a tough guy over here
@@atticusbastow839 relatively speaking
@atticusbastow839 … I think what you mean was: we have another, not a pussy who doesn’t let the words and thoughts of other affect him … over here
I still remember the show he had on showtime where he’s walking around drinking a cup of gravy 😂💀
That was a good show I like when he's on the party bus and the guy says I was you for Halloween and showed him a picture of Gene Simmons from kiss
😂
Eddie Murphy’s “Delirious” years before Dice was filled with “sexism”, “racism” and “homophobia”. For that matter Richard Pryor and George Carlin initiated aspects of it. Dice Clay just pulverized the sick toilet humor on another level in an age/era where people weren’t focused on “political correctness”. Dice’s character was meant to be offensive and he had an album he spewed vice versa on men for women for that matter. He was revolutionary next level like N.W.A. and the Geto Boys were revolutionary next level in hip-hop/rap in the late 1980’s/early 1990’s.
goonie goo goo
Eddie wasn't being racist, sexist or homophobic. He was making masculine macho guys homosexuals. That's what was funny about it
Quote from delirious
I'm not saying anything. I don't have a problem with them. I mean you can be friends with a gay person. You can. You can play tennis with them. Hey What are you doing after the game? I'm going to suck a dick. Okay, I'm going to have a beer. I'll see you later
@@SuperCrazyPsycho731that’s why I used parentheses genius because it was “tongue in cheek” slapstick sarcastic humor - we know he wasn’t really like that as it was for show as a comedy routine.
@@SuperCrazyPsycho731 Dice was doing the exact same thing. That was literally the character smh. It was a persona. Do you go watch Jeselnik and actually think he's a sociopath? Or Jimmy Carr and think he's a pedo? They are comedians. It's a stage persona, it's an act ffs, a routine...
“Like nurenburg” 🤣😂😂this channel is a joke he’s a legend I use to love vice too smh
My mom used to rent me his tapes when I was 10 in 1990
I like your Mom.
But that comedian Mary Beth Barone says sexist things against men in her stand up act and she’s calling Dice sexist in his act. Hypocrite.
Very generous calling her a comedian
She doesn't come off as a comedian.
I don't need you to tell me what's funny.
He's hilarious just like Eddie Murphy George Carlin Richard Pryor
Andrew Dice Clay is a legend
They gunna do a dark side of comedy episode on Bobby lees Tijuana story?
and vice is dead i just went to a dice show with my dad and he sold out the venue
It's comedy. It's inappropriate, racist, sexist, homophobic and absurd...but it's FUNNY! You can laugh at this stuff and not take it seriously folks. Just like Rambo movies didn't make me go out and buy a machine gun. It's just entertainment.
Yeah but dice isn't funny
@@Pimpetigore Non argument. Humor is subjective and A LOT of people found him funny..
@@clicheguevara5282 yea smooth brains if you think dice is funny you got the emotional maturity of a toddler
@@PimpetigoreWho is your comedian of choice? Amy Shumer?
@@grippler3166I think she’s just as bad. Dice has said some funny things, but the generation of my parents definitely shared sentiments that dice clay did and he reinforced those feelings for sure.
Pound for pound one of the all time greatest comedians who ever walked a stage. Just the fact that 30 some odd years later he's still making a bunch of unfunny wokescolds cope and seethe is a testimonial to just how culturally relevant he remains.
Or how culturally detached some bigots still are
Thanks for coming and demonstrating exactly what I mean.
@@UrbansquealerHow detached you are for not seeing the ashes of your damn city.
you still don't get his act lol
@@nelty0987654321 who’s act? I think he explained Dices just fineces
If anyone ever asks me what happened to comedy, I'll point them to this video....
The fact that his humor resonates with the crowd says more about the society itself than it does about the comedian. He simply leveraged something that was already there. We're pointing our fingers the wrong way.
He saw the bigotry in the crowds and chose to use it for his own gains instead of criticizing it.
That's entirely on him. We're absolutely pointing our fingers the right way.
He chose a paycheck over the moral high ground. That’s true.
@@cormano64 He's funny and you're not, no need to be a baby about it
@@data_abort”people used to not be so vocal about being insulted and bashed”
@@data_abort Yeah. The ones who want to do the insulting without consequences.
A.K.A.: Cowards.
still hilarious and still just jokes.
name one bit from this piece that was funny. this is straight up hate speech catering to white men.

@@Aid.eonly an idiot wouldn’t get the distinction, it’s an outlet for things people would never say IRL just like all great comedy
I guess this elementary school teacher / HR department culture warriors want to pretend everyone is a complete idiot and that language has no context, and everything is black or white the second the tiniest amount of risk exists
So in retrospect that won’t be a persuasive argument to that sort of
This should be called: Losers call the last real comedian a racist but they had no career....Dice Rules.
This guy was funny funny funny character on stage and a had a very deep soul off stage....I loved him and his act ..
People are so soft now an days that they can't handle a comedy character from 30 years ago... wtf. Yeah lets censor comedy now..
He Back 😁! Dice coming to state theater in PA. October 2023
This is mindless, its just an easy target in the context of modern woke culture. People and comedy were different in those days. He was a product of his time and industry, a character molded by the sense of humor he could portrait best. This borders on a hit piece carefully put together to mount people against a stage persona
This is immediately the thought I had less than 2 minutes in lol.
"times were different" is such a bullshit excuse. being a dick is being a dick no matter the time period
No to censorship
people tend to forget he sold out msg and had the biggest special of the decade but people just can't take a joke
exactly !
So did Dane Cook and Carlos Mencia. Huge marketing does not equal good comedy.
The more feminists and the elite hate him the more I like him
Dice is funnier than all the people they interviewed put together
That aint saying much they all suck including Dice
Exactly they ate jealous their career is not even close to his status.
Well not Rodriguez Rodriguez is way funnier than him
vice is dead, dice still going
With palsy!
There take on this video is exactly why
💯 🥊 🔥 👍🏼
6.55 That guy assigned to morally condemn the wrongthink can barely contain his obvious desire to laugh out loud.
Thanks for keeping the comments open. I’m here for the ratio 😂
Ditto
I’ve been watching this series on Vice and I just realized the narrator is Dave Foley form Kids in the Hall
That woman's nose ring is far more offensive than any joke Dice ever told.
These woke people give one person too much credit. It was the 80's we all had thick skin. If we did not like you, we would be very cordial. I grew up in the barrio.
This was when comedy was good. Now people can’t handle jokes because they aren’t smart enough to understand how process it without completely melting down.
The jokes are just "haha TITS!!! SEX!!!" and "aren't gay people disgusting??" it's just lazy
Yepp! 🎉
Meanwhile, not a peep about ya boi Jeffrey Epstein
He's a Borat, just 35 years ago, so what's the problem?
The golden age of comedy, back before the forever offended types were on the scene.
They were there, but now they're in power and dictate policy and school curriculums.
What are you talking about? He was controversial as hell even had bomb threats
@@SuperCrazyPsycho731 nah.... the only people that thought he was controversial were the same ones that thought Howard Stern was controversial.
@@rpscorp9457 Howard Never went this far. Sounds like beat my meat and blank Willow aren't really the same as... Well I can't quote anything from dice And keep my account. I can quote Howard jokes. Is it in yet?
@@SuperCrazyPsycho731 Howard had 3 poeple sitting on dump buttons and was on delay to catch things that would have gotten them in FFC trouble., and that was just for on air. Off air it was as rough as it gets during the Gary Dell'Abate era. I was living 45 minutes outside NYC at the time, saw plenty of his off air shows. After howard it was Opie and Anthony, culminating in the event that got them kicked off the air lol.
A hit piece.
Wait til Vice hears about All in the Family.
Or “Blazing Saddles”
All those people who filled Madison square garden thought they were going to a hockey game.
Comedy requires a level of intellect both in its conception and execution if the audience isn't able to comprehend or appreciate that then they feel it's the comics fault when in fact it's the audiences fault....and here we are.
It’s never the audience’s fault, that sounds like cope
@@munch3x6 It wasn't, but it is now (cuz woke sh*t). Everyone got it back in the day just now ppl are stupid and always in their fee-fees. They deserve to have someone like Diceman rip on them. It was a joke before and now it's serious. Bizarro world sh*t man...
I first saw him as an actor on Crime Story so I was confused to see him doing stand up as that character. It was the HBO special. Novel to say the least but let’s say a little goes a long way. Goes on to do MSG & SNL. Solid three year run till Boom 💥 he’s done. The Arsenio Show was the death knell. Kinnison mocking him? Hilarious. Washed up on Stern telling anyone who listened I played the Garden.
I still can’t believe he cried lmao
I am sure he stays up at night worrying about what you have to say about him. Kinnison was a jealous little man, sad because he was funny too. How many comedians played the Garden to a sell out crowd before or since?
"How many comedians played the Garden to a sell out crowd before or since?"
Chris Rock, Eddie Murphy, Louis CK, Dane Cook, Dave Chappelle, George Carlin, Russell Peters, Kevin Hart, and Aziz Ansari
@@gravis2000
Vice did a story about Dice Clay then chose to interview a bunch of snowflakes.
They interviewed Communist devils 666
Just because they have their own opinion and didn't like his act?
@@cityhawk no cause the try to act like his act is dangerous. It’s the equivalent to calling video games dangerous.
This episode and the Roseanne one were complete hit pieces. The people commenting on them did nothing but trash them.
Exactly all these people they interviewed are woke crybabies
"You can blind these people with dental floss, you don’t give them keys to a car!"
Knowing that it is a stage character, I'm surprised people aren't asking the same questions about shows such as euphoria etc. That would mean every form of entertainment is hate speech if they depict negative things.
Truth
💯
exactly. thank you!!
Because the toxicity of women and blacks is stunning, brave and empowering; whereas may God have mercy on you if you have the nerve to be a white male.
Someone else remarked that the people who are seething aren't intelligent enough to know it's an act. The joke is the obnoxious personality and it took me until my early 20's to appreciate the humor in it even though I'm not a fan at all.
There will never be another point in history where the audience knows the punch lines and yells them out with him and they still find it funny.
The joke is really on you if you ever took him seriously. As a comedian, he has no peer. His delivery, timing and spontaneity have been honed over 45 years of work. I just saw him onstage last night and he is a master of his craft, completely in control.
I've always been big fan of racial and sexual humor. Dice was a beast at both, and he's one of the best comics ever. If you're offended by his jokes, then i got two words for you...."SUCK IT". OH!
I concur brother
men like you are always a big fan of racial and sexist humor.
Fux sakes, if you don’t like the guy- there’s literally millions of hours of entertainment elsewhere. Life is far too short to jump into these documentaries where we HATE a certain person for being a hateful person. ironic or nnuh 🥴
criticism is not hate.
@@CamJames It is when it's extremist propaganda that the overwhelming vast majority of society disagrees with
howd they get bobby lee wtf
He’s been on Bobbys podcast
I love how these unknown comics are criticizing Dice for jokes he told 35 years ago.
Different Era. Different rules.
Andrew Dice Clay 2024
When Amy Schumer did her Netflix special that was so bad it made Netflix drop the star rating system, when she made a "joke" about a man who wouldn't eat her out because she smelled "like a barnyard animal" so she pushed him off a cliff, did the audience laugh? No. They CHEERED. How is that any different?
Dice > Vice
Best comic ever 💯👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾🤣🤣🤣
I’m cracking up now I’m gonna research this dude
You won't regret it. Dice was the gigachad meme before memes were even invented
This video is what's wrong with comedy, society, schools. You name it. Nuance is lost on everyone these days. Thick skin doesn't exsist and frankly, a good sense of humor is seriously lacking
@vice is embarrassing lol
And I find it funny that I know may 2 people that’s been showed.
I’m ova hea now, Oh!

@OneguyUnderTheSky it is comedy if it's funny
@@cormano64 Comedy and cringe intersectional feminist propaganda are two totally different things though (unless you're Hannah Gadsby or Greta Gerwig of course lol). That's why Dice = comedy and the Barbie movie = hate speech
(everything about that film is anti-egalitarian, it's FAR from subtle, actually it's unintentionally more ham-fisted than Dice's intentionally ham-fisted caricature smh)
Vice continues to disappoint.
Love Andrew Dice Clay! Let’s have more of him and his types
This was informative and even entertaining for the first quarter or so, and then it just got really preachy.... and the irony of it all is that a lot of the people who are being preachy do the exact same thing, except it's just acceptable because dare jokes involve the socially acceptable demographic to hate on.
-Who's jokes?
-Dare fuckin' jokes!
They bleeped "geek", hahaha. That's Vice for you.
back in the day when people had a sense of humor and weren't offended by everything.
What's the common denominator with the interviewees all pissy about the JOKES? take one guess.
rose tinted glasses. i remember him from my childhood from the "jack and jill" joke. i forgot how bad his jokes were on so many levels.
Complaining about this 30 years later accomplishes what? In the time, it drew audiences. Now? Not okay. I’m totally okay with the “now”. But what are we highlighting? Times progress. That’s the nature of things. Appreciate the progression instead of finding enemies in the past.
Well fucking said! I salute you 🫡
Do you know what the “Dark side of the …’s” series is about? It’s to examine the dark sides of things from the PAST. That’s the whole entire point. If watching them examine his character and comedy from the past makes you feel butt hurt then simply don’t watch snowflake
I like your take on this.
it was a better time for sure
It's not progression, it's regression disguised as progression. As soon as people see that the sooner we can get back to equality instead of trying to force equity based on erroneous perceptions of the past.
why these nobody's picking on past things. Im glad I saw this because I forget a lot, I'm gonna stick a reminder on the fridge, watch a Dice dvd on Saturday. Lucky for me I've only saw one so hopefully he has more? He's really funny.
ADC was great as the dad in "A star is Born.
I like the Andrew dice clay jokes
Andrew Dice Clay definitely went too far sometimes but I also can’t imagine being as far up your own **s as the dude in the beret. I bet he says “there’s an ethical and moral quandary at play” dozens of times a day 😂

I like Lampanelli’s comedy ‘cause it’s obvious everyone’s in on the insult vibe. With Diceman, it can be hard to tell because I don’t see or hear Andrew’s true personality peek out. The adult nursery rhymes are a riot though.
Vice still going?
The 80’s and early 90’s….Andrew Dice Clay and Al Bundy. Need I say more?
I wish Vice would have never went woke 😕
Dice is a legend no one knows who that chick is.
No more surprises I have to know everything before watching a film or going to a show
