Nick Offerman is the perfect representation of my idea of true masculinity. He does masculine things and acts masculine, without being a toxic douche. He is okay talking about being romantic/sappy with his wife and does not at all feel it is a show of weakness or a threat to his manhood. Real confidence, not just a projection. Not that you need any encouragement, but keep it up Nick. We need more men in this world like you!
Well said mate, I want to check out more of his Ron Swanson performance. Speaking of true masculinity when I was growing up one of my heroes was Steve Irwin another great man.
First time I hear him giggle on P&R I thought it was a bit. Then I watched (forget the name of the show) him talking about wood working. He laughed. Oh shit. How does he talk like that but giggle like that? No hate for it. It's just unexpected.
Nick Offerman is my patron saint of contentedness and well being. Though he’ll never know, his kindness and humor got me through some really dark times
@@thagingerninjer5391 my guy is quite literally a cartoon character at this point while simultaneously being the epitome of traditional masculinity how does one even get to be so cool?
He’s not wrong, every week or two on my way home I buy my wife flowers and a card, my son and I clean the house and make her dinner. My coworkers/friends ask how after 15 years we still have a good sex life, but it just boils down to appreciating her and occasionally taking some of the load off of her. She works and keeps our family together every day, and she deserves a lot more but night off here and there seriously makes a huge difference
Funny, creative, humble, smart, emotionally intelligent with well-developed critical thinking skills, Nick is my-people! I would love to kick it around a campfire with him sharing stories, life philosophies, listening to the sounds of the night in silence or simply staring into the starry sky, intoxicated or not! What a great time that would be! I aspire to be, and surround myself with, good to the soul, salt-of-the-earth people like Nick O. Stay Gold Nicky-boy, Stay Gold!
I recently started woodworking, and it's satisfying as fuck. I'm an IT guy by trade, and it's a nice counterpoint to staring at a goddamn screen all day.
Hell yeah. Wood is amazing. Good on ya. I work on my 1974 dodge charger that I bought 20 years ago for $600 when I was 14 years old. Gotta have a discipline (a hobby)
Here is a segment of an ancient Welsh prose on wisdom that I think on often.... "He who works with sensitive deft hands at any woodcraft, will absorb the rain, the sunlight and the starlight and the dew that entered into the making of its grain. He should grow tall and straight and clean and good who daily breathes the essences of wood"
@@seanwoodyoneill8348 well…the breathing part not so much. Wood dust in incredibly toxic, unfortunately, and pretty much any woodworker from hobbyist to industrial have notably lower lifespans because of it.
Same. I work on computers all day and woodworking has been such a joy. I don’t remember where I heard it, but it’s perfect: he who works with his mind must relax with their hands. Or something along those lines. If I was in the trades or something doing manual labor, I think coming home and doing woodworking would be the last thing on my mind. I’d want to be reading or doing puzzles or something. But I spend all goddamn day thinking. Sometimes I just need to turn my brain off for a bit and work with my hands. It’s very energizing and refreshing
I'm SO GLAD THIS IS BACK! It was on Netflix for 5 minutes and I loved it! This man is a gem and someone to look up to. We love people like this to be just the love that he exudes to everyone.
@@mfmageiwatchfacts. Nick is quite literally the opposite other than both being woodworkers. Basically everything the character Ron says in the show Nick is against as a human. It was sad to learn. Ron’s an iconic American.
I'm a blacksmith. I'm listening to this while I'm in the forge making a draw knife so I can use it to make my first longbow. I had no idea how absolutely hilarious you were in stand up sir, you have a new fan!
Thank you Nick Offerman for reminding me I haven't left my husband a little romantic card to find on the table when he leaves for work before I wake up in a couple months... coincidentally, I haven't been blown in exactly that long. 😂 Being serious, this guy is what TRUE masculinity should be. The way he unabashedly expresses his love for his wife, lifts her up, while not being afraid of expressing how much she lifts him up as well. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I admire Nick to no end. He's a human treasure.

David from edinburgh in scotland age 46 here, hands down the most relevant educational intelligent comedy in our generation absolutely fantastic. Nick thankyou for finally educating people in generationally relevant way ❤❤❤❤
I never knew i could love his stand up so much!!!! I always loved him in others stuff but this was so good!!! Love hos little giggle and hes so witty. Bfavo!
This was amazing, i didn't realize until watching this yeeeears later how much Offerman must have inspired Ron Swanson character. They must have built that around him. Loved every moment of this
"We're sorry. Please clean up our shit. We love you" holds up beautifully as a statement from his generation to ours in 2024. This man saw and understood.
I needed this. Ron Swanson inspired me to become politically independent when I was dissatisfied with our two-party system, and now Nick Offerman is inspiring me to stay happy in these trying times.
Oh man, this was the first comedy special i sat down and found and watched on my own and it made me love standup specials, ive been cheasing it the whole time.
Looking back at it now, he's even more sexy than I initially imagined, I love a man who can stand up for the marginalized. Like listening to him talk, he's dabbled in the art of gay lovemaking, for sure.
He’s so right about how to make a women happy… jump up and help bring in the groceries without being asked. So simple and yet will blow the minds of most women😂 😊

wrong, he has said many a time that he is not Ron Swanson. He thinks Ron is a parody. It's a shame, because Ron is >>> Nick.
