Yeah, but what would he have done if the audience had reacted a second too slow? Actually, I think they did; he trailed off before they peaked; I think he practiced it with a more quick-witted audience in mind.
Che doesn’t get get near the credit he deserves. If you really listen to his jokes, they’re brilliant. So funny and so smart. What a good guy. What a clever comic.
I remember my family and I went to a sushi bar in Japan. We stared at the menu for 15 minutes without ordering anything, so they sent out fried chicken on the conveyor belt. My husband was going to grab it, and I was like, “no it’s a trap, they’re watching us.”
😆😆 Just every so often there's a hint of truth in naughty stereotypes. Like I'm British, and yes, we really do smell like wet dog when we get rained on. Which is very often. Also, we really don't use much herbs and spices in our food, not including Curry etc. Hence the meme going round a while back: "Only the british would invade half the world for spices, and then not even use them" 😂😂
@@TheHorseshoePartyUK “not including curry” Curry isn’t british. There is Japanese curry and Indian curry. Both are delicious and have plenty of flavor and are not remotely british.

People confuse "racist" with "racial" all the time. Racist is something that belittles, demeans or oppressed based on someones race or cultural ancestry. Racial is something that applies to a race or group of people with biogical commonalities. Saying black people like fried chicken is a racial generality. Liking a type of food makes no judgement of character,especially when that food is one of the most delicious things known to man.
people always point out that blacks like friend chicken but I know white people who like fried chicken equally - especially in the south - fried chicken - corn bread and collard greens. 😋
Dude ppl are weak asfk and raised to be who gives a fuq what ppl think bout you worry bout bettering yourselves if someone doesn’t like me or you bc the way we might look it’s they’re fuqin problem fuqem. And yes fried chicken is dope but if you like that try something called vaca frita i think the translation to English is fried cow and that sounds horrible but its gas trust.
As a non-American who is frequently puzzled by your cultural peculiarities, this is one of the things that never made sense to me. Surely EVERYONE loves fried chicken? Why did black people get singled out? Never understood the watermelon thing either. Everyone who lives in a place warm enough to grow delicious watermelons loves watermelons. They're better than ice-cream in the summer heat. You might as well pick on people for loving pizza and strawberries. Who doesn't love pizza and strawberries?
Marvelous. The man has his own voice, it's unique and easy to relate to. (Tho I did pick up on a bit of Cosby and Chappelle.) Michael Che, please keep doing as you is doing. It's refreshing.

His jokes are great, I agree with the Chapelle similarities, one thing Chappelle do very very well is "story telling". Che jump from rooster to donkey, but still be hilarious, Chapelle be telling you an hilarious story
I'm so glad I watched this! He's so funny and his delivery and timing are spot on. I don't really watch SNL so this is the first I've heard of him. Definitely going to look him up.

Never heard of this man til just now. I love his delivery and obvious message behind his jokes. If Chappelle ever retires, this man could easily take over as a humourous voice of reason.
Michael is the shit, I feel he doesn't care about what you believe or don't, funny is funny and nothing should be off topic. Dude would be so fun to chill with for a few hours.
In a new job I inherited a staff member who would say "I'm not racist but", before saying something racist. Gave her 2 verbal warnings before asking for her resignation. Surprisingly, she left without complaint.
I can't believe it only has 1.7 million views!!!? This was perfect. Every joke was perfect and his timing and delivery is on point. I love Che so much. Hopefully someone will reply to this comment in the near future and says "Damn. It had only 1.7 mil views back then? Can't imagine." 🙂
@@JoJoTheOttergenerally it means hes an unoriginal hack with zero cred. And given about 90% of what i heard in this bit is variations of shit ive heard many times before and better.
I was always confused by "soul food". It was just food I grew up on as a poor person in the very rural southern US. Fried chicken, collards, cabbage, okra,...us poor rural white kids grew up on that stuff too. (I did realize eventually how it became known as soul food.)
I think the difference is that the seasonings and the recipes evolved separately. There is some overlap, but white southern cooking is usually called "southern cooking". Both are good, but there is a difference. Kinda like two branches from the same tree.
@@katrinab7657 just like music. I saw a comment once, "Blues is the black man's country and country is the white man's blues." I always thought music and food where great mediums to bring people together
@@liannemarie2504 I always said country is the blues with a twang. Music, food, dance, literature, and all those cultural things should bring us together....when we let them. I wish we could all love, accept, appreciate, and celebrate each other's differences and similarities. It just sounds so simple.
Yeah I never really understood the chicken thing. How many people have you ever said "Hey we're ha ing fried chicken" and they're "Oh no I hate chicken."
The primary origin of the chicken thing came from a scene in the movie Birth of a Nation that showed black members of a state legislature acting uncouth while in a legislative session, drinking, wearing no shoes, etc.. One of them was standing and eating fried chicken while speaking. The movie was saying "this is what happens when you give black people rights". So, fried chicken became part of a stereotype that was used for decades to demean. It was combined with other caricatures to paint a picture black people being inferior and incapable of handling responsibility. Americans were inundated with these images, with some of it lasting into the 1970s.
More to do with slaves and chicken being cheap, not to mention MJ saying he loves fried chicken on TV. Saying the primary reason is some clip from a 1915 show is not true. A TV show or literal slavery? I think the actual slavery is a bigger influence. Doesnt take a rocket scientist to figure that out. @Dadofer1970
I love Che’s delivery but he always looks drunk/stoned in his standups vs his SNL performances. PS, I’m a middle aged white dude that L❤️VES fried chicken & watermelon too. Because I have tastebuds‼️
Same color and age, different gender than you... Those two foods are surefire guaranteed to turn my sad little colon into a science fair volcano of velocity and ruin. But I can do double digit spice-ometer curries. Must be the Cuban part? I don't know which parts of my genetics and which just personality is what I've had relatives from both sides spit on the q-tip of we& me to tell me all the way thru wars and immigration inspectors to make this hot mess of a goddess. 😏
What American DOESN’T like fried chicken? It’s practically a citizenship test, except many non-Americans also love fried chicken. It’s almost like asking if people like to breath oxygen.
I feel more like it's a poor thing. I am what some may call a white yankee and I like fried chicken and watermelon and grape koolaid too... though not a fan of balogna sandwiches. I grew up in a family that was forced to stretch a dime and chicken eggs flour oil was all cheaper than steak pork seafood strawberries blackberries turkey and roast beef... And who doesnt love some good ol Johnny cake cornbread? Come on man people need to stop searching for ways to seperate each other. When we do we will ALL BE WEALTHY and I ain't talking about no devil money.
I hate when people say, "it's southern culture," as if that isn't culture you picked up from the slaves yall had. Where did the British in the south get their eventual "southern cumture" from?
Oh man the chicken thing is hilarious and I’ve thought it for years. Like do black people actually like fried chicken more than me/others? Cause I love that chicken boiiii

Same color and age, different gender than you... Those two foods are surefire guaranteed to turn my sad little colon into a science fair volcano of velocity and ruin. But I can do double digit spice-ometer curries. Must be the Cuban part? I don't know which parts of my genetics and which just personality is what I've had relatives from both sides spit on the q-tip of we& me to tell me all the way thru wars and immigration inspectors to make this hot mess of a goddess. 😏
Which is why the fried chicken/ watermelon stereotype makes no sense. Everyone eats those things.
Friend chicken and watermelon...? okay. Thanks for info. Noted.

It’s another Che routine.

I thought I was Italian and French my whole life until I had my DNA done and I’m 86% English, how boring is that.
What American DOESN’T like fried chicken? It’s practically a citizenship test, except many non-Americans also love fried chicken. It’s almost like asking if people like to breath oxygen.
Never heard of this guy but this made my day worth it 🤦🏾♂️😂😂😂
This fella is pretty darn funny, I'd keep an eye out for him, I think he's going to be big.
That's what she said
Have you been seeing him a lot these 9 years? This was from 2013.
@@RedSntDK OP was being ironic, bro
I never heard of this guy before but I'm hooked now. Wow.....very impressive!
Barely discovered this dude he’s hilarious 😂
Valid points and hilarious!
Such a misconception - fried chicken isn't just black culture, it's Southern culture. Almost all of us like fried foods, watermelon, etc.
I work in a super market and white buy most of the fried chicken and everybody buys the bean pies.
Exactly, I have always said this as a white southerner. We love the same foods.
I'm Filipino... Who doesn't like fried chicken and watermelon they're delicious
I feel more like it's a poor thing. I am what some may call a white yankee and I like fried chicken and watermelon and grape koolaid too... though not a fan of balogna sandwiches. I grew up in a family that was forced to stretch a dime and chicken eggs flour oil was all cheaper than steak pork seafood strawberries blackberries turkey and roast beef... And who doesnt love some good ol Johnny cake cornbread? Come on man people need to stop searching for ways to seperate each other. When we do we will ALL BE WEALTHY and I ain't talking about no devil money.
I hate when people say, "it's southern culture," as if that isn't culture you picked up from the slaves yall had. Where did the British in the south get their eventual "southern cumture" from?
Omg! Where has this guy been hiding. He's awesome.
Mad funny. I can't stay up as late as SNL I know, Boomer. But Che and Joner are funny af.
Good writing. 👍
Edit: Jost. Sorry.
"Some spooky gay people" 💀🤣🤣💀💀
You live and you learn. I had no idea he did stand up comedy. I only know him for being on SNL. Funny guy.
The Bit about book covers blue my mind. Absolutely awesome set
Oh man the chicken thing is hilarious and I’ve thought it for years. Like do black people actually like fried chicken more than me/others? Cause I love that chicken boiiii
I also wonder that. I'm actually concerned for the health of black people if they do in fact like chicken more than I do
🤯 🤯 🤯.... 🤣🤣🤣🤣.
@@HannibalKantter chicken is pretty healthy my dude, depending on how you make it
If only black people ate fried chicken, fried chicken would go out of business.
Never seen him before....but gonna look for him now. Too funny. Nice job Brudda
Pretty damn good clip, I like how he joked about the subjects intelligently
Needed to find this so much sooner. So funny!
Che is awesome! 🫶🏼👏🏼🙌🏽😂
Never listened to this dude before. Now his humour and reasoning I like!!!
He really puts thought into his comedy
I had to watch this twice, it's so good.
My man started with, "This is a diverse group of white people" ....politically incorrect, IM IN!
