I absolutely love the fact that he doesn't let today's society get in the way of still performing good comedy.
Like Chappelle
@@Hgh38 except no matter how hard he tries, he’ll still be shot down :(
Pretty sure he stopped using that black puppet due to outrage
@@silverdialga0358 who Dave,I think not because my 6 ft 280lb azz supports Chappelle
@@silverdialga0358 ps I AM WHITE MALE
Politics isn't funny until someone falls up a flight of stairs
Or off a bike.
Several times.
You think it's funny show me tripping going up the steps then I guess you found it funny too when somebody went up the steps with toilet paper on the bottom of their shoe right
Then it's on the news.
@@billb6959 Yeah, why not, but not as funny as falling up the stairs or shaking hands with invisible people.
I am so happy he's not choosing sides and if he does he keeps it to himself. I like that he picks on both sides too I mean we need that in today's world. I like Trump but I am not going to get mad if someone pokes fun if it's tasteful and not bashing. Jeff knows how to keep his audience and that's great.
@Kristopher Prime I agree with you and like I said I don't mind his teasing. You're right all any of them do is bash him and laugh. They're a bunch of venomous snakes that thrive off of Trump. They have never made fun of Biden or any demo for that matter.
That’s something I’ve always admired about him, I think it’s really rare in comedians these days to not have a “take” that just so happens to paint one side I am extremely positive side and the other in an extremely negative side.
@kristopherprime9837 And just as important, Jeff skewered Biden just as much. Jeff never played favorites, like CNN or the leftie comics would.
Jeff is good because even as he is talking to people, his character is looking around, and looking alive.
Pretty ingenious, honestly.
It’s got me wondering if he even knows he’s doing it. It’s gotta be muscle memory at this point
@@erickk1992 I know what you mean. That one when Peanut accidentally flies off his hand is the first time I thought about that.
Abbot & Costello set the bar so high for slapstick that it held alone till Jeff and Peanut pulled an entire hutch of rabbits out with the 'New Passwords', I laughed so hard my entire family held a meeting to decide if it was time to put me into a nuthouse, the joke is on them, THEY are the nuthouse, LOL.
Yes!
Jeff is entirely correct about comedians "picking sides". It's not entertaining and it only gets you into trouble with someone who will then want to silence you after.
What happened to freedom of speech?
@@Makarosc You ask that like cancel culture respects freedom of speech- they tolerate it until it stops being a benefit to them and their agenda. Even if you're factually correct and accurate, they will waste their entire lives destroying you if they so much as look at you funny.
@@lolzism1 that's irrelevant the right cancels just as much as the left Hell I'd argue Jeff is trying to "cancel" liberal Comedians with this why do you think he's Fox news which very explicitly favors the Republicans
"You not gonna learn anything" 😂
Peanut cracked me up with that simple statement
We did learn from Peanut he could smell carrot on Jeff Fa Fa's breath 😇 🥹
It's very true, I remember my mom watching Johnny Carson almost religiously. And he always poked fun at whoever was in the White House, regardless of which party they belonged to. Bob Hope was the same way - not picking sides, just going after anyone and everyone in politics equally,
I die laughing at all his characters especially Walter as Biden! Absolutely destroys Biden with so many good jokes with Walter. Go see him live if you haven't yet. Always a great time
I saw him live a few months ago. It was insanely funny, especially ALL the material was new, which is an extremely rare occurrence for him.
Walter as Trump was pretty funny as well.
I'll never forget the"powder blue Prius"!!!!! Man that had me in stitches..... Good on ya Jeff!
I remember that.... His teen girl first driving.... And the comment about her trying to figure out how to use the credit card🤣
Dunham is one of the last smart comedians that hasn't been cancelled because of it.
Absolutely love Jeff and his dummies! I've never laughed soo much as when I watch his shows!!❤👍👍 I'd love it if he came to Ohio! Never been to a live show of his but would love to see this new one in person!👍👍👍😁❤
They weren't his dummies that was the "Friends" But I see how you could have made the error.
Dec 30th in Columbus. Check the tour list. Act now, I am trying to get money together to go see him
Same here .. trying to live it up in Toledo my fellow buckeye .. be blessed 💯❤️✌️🙏
It's amazing to see "them" LIVE....I couldn't imagine one guy and one dummy.... But it works
@@meeofcourse4152 I saw Herschel Walker and Lindsay Graham the other week - that was pretty funny, similar
Saw Jeff and his friends in Vegas. What a riot!
Dearly Love that guy and his whacky friends . He is a true classic and a great performer .
Jeff always comes over as a professional... The laugh before the message.
An intelligent comedian and performer who keeps his politics out of his show. How positively novel!
Jeff does politics in his show, but it is bipartisan politics, since he skewers dems and repubs equally, never playing favorites. Just like Carson used to do.
Jeff Dunham certainly hasn’t aged since the early 2000s 😆
So is Keanu Reeves.
That's because jeff is all about vegan!! He has changed as far as filling out from the early 80s.but jeff is still a fox,lookin great in his casual attire= comfort clothing for him!! Ive always adored him since I discovered him on stage (T.V.) back In 1984 maybe 85? He is a doll... (handsome!)
He hasn't I saw him today live and he looks the same haha
Jeff is so right comics shouldn't show their political views. People come to their shows to enjoy themselves not get a political lecture. We need to be able to laugh at ourselves , our politicians and the mad world we live in. My husband and I were lucky enough to see Jeff and his little friends at the O2 London this year. And WOW! What a great show. Please Jeff come back soon as we'd love to see another show .
George Carlin
Richard Pryor
Lenny Bruce
Dave Chappelle
Bill Hicks
Robin Williams
Bill Burr
Jon Stewart
All of these comedians who are some of the very very best to ever do it would disagree about you should not share your political views as a comedian.
@@heroflying yeah that’s a good point, but even most of them, sometimes chapelle depending on the day and the crowd, do listen to both sides and make fun of said sides. robin williams did it a lot during his comedy years. he hit both sides. but you do make a very good point, however, comedy has changed since they had done stand up (aside from dave since he still does shows) so sometimes you have to change your lines to match the times and issues going on. i think it’s kind of stupid because a comedy show is supposed to have laughter and make fun of everyone in a lighthearted way.
your point is very valid tho, and you bringing that up is very smart. i didn’t even think about williams and his time of comedy.
I always thought of Peanut as a Muppet on meth...
(Okay, originally crack, but I like the illiteration)
Jeff and all his puppets are exceptional fun, laughs and entertainment 💯% One of my most favorite comedians! Hopefully, he never gets cancelled 🙏! We need humor in our lives. Without it, where would we be?
Right where the left wants us
@@Mr1Tanker you're 100% correct! This is long but I ask you to give me a chance. They want our happiness, our children and our money. They want us to die off being as miserable as possible. They need the children brainwashed in order to mold them to their wishes to control them. Having our money for themselves takes away our independence and our enjoyment of life. Stripping us down to needing basic needs and dying from starvation because we can't afford to eat, that is if we're given access to the food supply at all. Whoever is left after the famine that's coming because of circumstances that they've put in place, they'll be helpless, broke and under complete control of the "NWO", the elites.
Probably shouldn't be saying any of this but everyone should be aware of what's to come. Many will roll their eyes and call me a "conspiracy theorist" but some will understand. Hopefully, we can all band together and prevent it by helping each other to survive. The only way is to set aside our differences and share what we have. Start growing our own food. People who have livestock, share with those who have fruits and vegetables and vice versa. That is if they allow us to have any land, livestock and seeds. They might take those as well. The future looks awfully dismal if things don't change. God help us all 🙏❤️🇺🇸.
If we didn't laugh we'd all go insane
@@trollpatroltrollingthetrol842 Well don't you have a problem
@@bradnorman7535 yeah, our current Government and some ignorant people out there, that's my problem. What's yours?
Me and the wife went and saw him here in D.C. back in September, and holy crap was it a great show. The things you never see off the camera are the funniest things since you always expect things to go as planned, until there is a mess up. Great showmanship as always by Jeff Dunham.
You’d be surprised how many mess-ups are actually pre-planned bits, doesn’t make it any less funny though!
@@robotnikrules7775 Yea that's what we saw. The mess ups were like ah f**k.
He great
Did he do Achmed in DC and we just not see it on the televised version????
@@ruadhrose Pretty sure he did. Weird he didn't get in the act for television.
❤ Jeff and Peanut!! So much talent Jeff. Great Job helping people laugh!! 👍👏🤣❤
Didnt Jeff get rid of one of his puppets because of the masses? I could be wrong but I think he did.
I remember seeing Jeff Dunham on my birthday a few years ago. Even though my family are more center-left, we all just died laughing at his jokes to both Right & Left. Because both sides have made MANY moments to poke fun at.
And that's Jeff Dunham. He's not there to "speak truth", as I've seen people say with him using Walter as Biden. He's there to make us laugh & have fun. And if ANYBODY gets offended because he's poking fun at somebody or something, then that's on you, not him.
Spot on!
This makes me respect Jeff soooo much more. He makes fun of both sides.
Not that he is insidiously racist at all .....nah
@@bradnorman7535 Racism is discrimination based on race. You're only actually a racist if you point out race as the soul reason.
@@bradnorman7535 racism as a term has been used so much, particularly by one side of the aisle, that if you point to an actual racist, no one cares because you've literally diminished the value of the word by calling everyone you disagree with racist. Good job
@@Nightshade-dh9fm But still needs to be called out where it exists and Dunam has made a career out of it
@@bradnorman7535 why, because of Jose? Because of achmed? Your worldview reminds me of the white privileged people who think it's there duty to be offended for others, the kinda people who get mad at a guy dressing up in a Chinese outfit, but yet when he talks to Chinese, they love it and think it's a great compliment.
Again you are detrimental to fighting actual racism because you call out people who are not in fact racist, it is really sad.
To watch Jeff Dunham is just pure joy, excitement and so much more, you never know what the guys are up to and what they gonna say to make you laugh, thanks Jeff and family for the many years of fun and laughter, from south Africa
He is 1 of the top 5 best comedians ever for me and my family
I have seen Jeff 3 times. I am trying to gather money to see him in Grand Rapids or Indianapolis. I even got made fun of by Walter.
With each passing year, I notice my resemblance to Walter. Personality wise, that is.
You too eh?
Me too.
Not the hero we need but the hero we deserve
I saw Jeff Dunham live, and what I saw is something probably nobody else has seen, except for those of us that were there that night. Jeff Dunham got the hiccups. Let that sink in for a moment. A ventriloquist with the hiccups. The two best parts were:
-Achmed saying, "How are you going to explain this? I don't even have a diaphragm!"
-Guitar Guy brought him a drink to help get rid of the hiccups. Instead of water, Guitar Guy brought a bottle of Jack Daniels. Jeff killed a third of the bottle in one swig.
I love Jeff.
You mean JeFaFa.
@@devilslayerthesaintofkille1317 You Know It..DunHaaam
I Remember watching Johnny Carson, His jokes picked on either side equally. That makes Jeff just as timeless. 👍🏻👍🏻😃 Love his stuff!❤
"where does Peanut come from" wow right out the gate
Look at his tour list some theirs about 4 days in a row where he has a show the next night in a different State this guy is flying all over crazy, good for him he actually wants to be a comedian.
Saw him just this past August he was hilarious!
@Butter Emails
HEY TROLL
Tell that phd thingy while grooming at mit.
It’s hilarious
why are bernie bros PUNKS and COWARDS.?
Jeff Dunham is really popular with seniors and evangelists.
@@MachiavellisThePrince well when I went there was mostly people in their late 20s and like myself mid 30s. He had a packed show at the State Fair here in Wisconsin they used the car race track for his stage and the bleachers and pit were packed with people. I didn't realize how popular he was. My kids like him and my 21 year old son was jealous my uncle got me tickets and not him. My kid knew of him before I did. He's been around for decades so makes sense if the older crowd likes him more. Either way he had me laughing. I enjoyed Chappelle when I saw him he's more my generation.
@@MachiavellisThePrince
Why are bernie bros PUNKS and COWARDS?
Peanut’s mouth in this one looks like the redhead in “The View”…😂
its good never to pick sides in polictics people take things too seriously but its really not that hard to be nice to each other no matter who or what you are
Anybody else think a Peanut-lead cartoon would do well?
My whole family loves Jeff
It's perfectly fine to pick a side, as long as you mock everyone and everything equally.
I love Jeff Dunham. And I have mad respect for him, especially after seeing clip.
Saw him a few months ago in my town he’s own of my favourite performers!
I totally want to go see Jeff live. He's one of the few comedians that I actually think are funny.
We are all stuck on our devices. This is true! Ironically, I am watching this on iPhone while driving.
I saw him in person, amazing talent!! ❤️🎉👍😎
LONG LIVE JEFF DUNHAM!!!!!!
THE GREATEST VENTRILOQUIST IN THE WORLD!!!!!!!
I never knew that Dunham was one of the smartest comedians today.
So pumped can’t wait. I think this is Jeff’s second special on Comedy Central since Covid
@Sunset's Channel not sure
Peanut, i KEEL YOU!!!
Gonna see you at the Ohio State Fair!!!!
He is a legend ☺️🤣☺️🤣☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️ love him till I die .... love from Australia DrEva
Did I fall into a time warp? 11 comedy specials? Already?!?!?
I hope the day never comes when we sensor part if a tree with a hand up it's trunk. We all need a good laugh to keep the frown lines from forming.
I guess all comedians now need to have a disclaimer before the show that says if you are easily offended please leave now.
Hello there 👋👋, how are you doing today? Hope you’re having a good day. God bless you!!❤️❤️
"you almost showed up".... yeah, people tend to do that when they're afraid of being cancelled.
I love Jeff. He is a comedy genius..
I always said Walter looked like a certain president, lol. Well played Jeff.
Politicians on both sides do plenty that is worthy of derision.
Smart man, he knows the essence of entertainment. Entertainers should stay neutral, just make people laugh rather than make them uncomfortable.
So you want to censor comedians, as well as Republicans? That’s never gonna happen here.
Snowflake
Aww. Poor little victim. Go to your safe space in mommies basement snowflake
I got to see his act live in DC couple months ago and holy crap he never disappoints. Laughed my butt off, specially at the Biden pokes. I felt bad for him though cuz somebody in the audience had a medical issue which brought the whole thing to a grinding halt n kinda threw off his momentum for like 15-20 minutes but other than that was a great great show.
Still wish that Jon Stewart didn't go Wack like a lot of his former collogues have. Now Chappelle & Dunham are probably the only 2 comedians left that are actually sane enough to perform neutrally.
We saw Jeff and them live in Tulsa last year It was great He's one of the few comic that is still left that will pick on both sides because he has a puppet that used to be Donald Trump's assistant and then he has Walter dress up as Biden it's funny as hell
I saw him in Utah, and I was begging him to stop. I was laughing so hard it hurt. Go to his show if you have the chance.
You have to wonder if he makes up the personalities or if they where already there and the puppets are just their way of getting out.
Jeff is the best he is his characters and we love them all! I love Peanut but I can't afford to buy one but I have sll the videos.
Best ever!!
Saw him a month ago. Definitely worth going again!
Love you Jeff❤
I wish he did the Jeff-fa-fa
Peanut I love you
Then you need to lead by example and stop picking sides, Mr Dunham.
Apparently Jeff has forgotten that Peanut is a Woozle. And apparently so has Peanut.
You guys are so funny my face hurts because I am laughing so much .
i laughed so hard that i died
I like a guy that's an equal opportunity offender
The problem is one side is being such a ridiculous treasonous pile of morons you can't not make fun of them but very very few Canadians only make fun of one side it's just the right makes it so easy I mean look at Trump for crying out loud he is a joke in and of himself
Peanut is a Woozle. Only OGs know.
Definitely love Jeff Dunham respect all of his characters
Walter has looked like This Biden, before This Biden looked like This Biden!!!
Elected officials need to not choose sides in a way that denies the needs of 50% of their constituents-comedians can do what they want. 🤷♀️
The reason I like Jeff is the same reason I like South Park and Mel brooks! No one is safe and no subject is sacrosanct! To boil it down to one word it would be irreverence!
Dunham is one of the LAST VREAL Comedians God Bless him!!!
He is a genius!!!!
It's bad when the dummies make more sense then the politicians.
The real dummies are the politicians now.
Politicians are dummies too just a different kind, and you can't see who is controlling them.
Not going to happen. Comedians are entitled to free speech. If they choose to take a stand like Chapelle, that is their free choice.
I don't think he's saying they don't have that right, he's just using his own free speech to advise against it. "first amendment" where it's not applicable is really the ultimate conversation-killer.
I agree. He’s not saying they don’t have the right but advises against it. Fine. He literally just took a political stance of riding a fence. Ok. Proved em wrong huh Jeff 🙄
If your political party revolves around a person and not ideas, you are in a cult.
@zachw7510, his puppets?
🗑️🤖
If you watch a comedy special, and notice the crowd applauding more than laughing. Thats a big tell i think. They are not at a comedy show, they are at some form of church, and the person on stage is the preacher. Now for me, i choose laughter.
A comdey tour I would love to see: Gabriel Iglesias and Jeff Dunham
So him picking a side by demanding comedians don't pick a side is ok?
Ironic
So are you saying Fox is the only place he's promoting his show? That's a little hard to believe.
Well Said
Who is John Dunham?
"Comedian John Dunham and puppet Peanut join ‘Fox & Friends’ ahead of their upcoming special ‘Me the People’ on Comedy Central."
I saw Jeff in 1992. Was amazing.
Peanut is a Woozle man!
He will never get cancelled his fan base is way to strong and all the whine babies in the world can't cancel him and if he does get cancelled I loose all hope for society, love Jeff he is awesome
I completely agree
“PEANUT; PEANUT; PEANUT; PEANUT”!!!!!
If you had told me Jeff Dunham would be the voices of reason before this, I would have thought you a dummy. But here he is with no strings on him. No one can put words in his mouth. He is nobody's puppet.
"Comedians need to stop picking sides" - Spoken by a comedian picking a side.
Comedians should make fun of both sides.
Jeff makes fun of both sides. Thats what comedians should do
They should've shown a video clip of Walter from the show, and Jeff should've had Walter with him.
I was at one of the two tapings he did in DC. They had to pause the show right before Peanut came on because of a medical issue someone had in the audience but I didn't see what as I was on the upper seating area
Biden was a blessing for his Walter act.
