Jackie's Lecture At Oxford University Part 1
Вставка

- This is a clip from a lecture I gave at Oxford University back in 1992. They gave me an award and a fellowship in the Oxford Union Society. The first American comedian to receive such an honor. That's how they got me to work for nothing. Enjoy!
I was driving along the M40 one saturday afternoon, listening to Jackie Mason on the radio. I had to pull over onto the hard shoulder because I was laughing so much that I was a danger to other drivers. A very, very funny man, he also comes over as a kind & modest man.
Jackie had a beautiful heart.
One of the smartest funniest comedians to ever walk the Earth!
I remember Jackie Mason from when I was just a kid in Los Angeles. I was glad to see he was such a hit at Oxford.
A very sad day. One of the greatest has left us. Jackie Mason brought so much laughter to so many. Such a talented man.
I love this man. Very high level humor without vulgarity and he is a very kind, loving soul. Showing obvious joy making people happy. A most dignified comedian.
A poll has jackie 63rd. out 100 top comedians. I think he is in the top 5
Yes so true

He's funny about just being funny. He's a CLEAN act in the same vein as Jerry Seinfeld or an old-time great Red Skelton. Saw him in Sparks, NV in the summer of '75. He kept our whole family in stitches for well over an HOUR! Man, was that guy ever FUNNY...and totally clean. It CAN be done.
I once went to one of his performances at the Shubert Theatre in New Haven, CT. I laughed SO hard, I was having trouble breathing!
I grew old literally laughing out loud at Jackie Mason’s hilarious jokes! Thank God for this archives of his stand up comedy! I can watch them all!
Good to the last drop!
How does Jackie do it? He can do ethnic humor, and be knee slapping funny. I guess that is testimony to his intelligence and comic genius. Love him.
Love your work Jackie Mason...You have been one of my favorites since the 60's and still are..
You kill it every time..Thank you so much for up loading his vids..!
Gosh he is the best! I love that dry joking expression,thats what makes it even funnier! Thanks for brightening my day pal!
8:18 "he's a controller in the trucking business" :) Reminds me of a friend who worked in a gas station, used to tell people he's "in the oil business".
Or in Harper Valley PTA... " I work in the 'Market'"
His expression lends relief to an exasperated world. In other words he's a damn good comic.
Clever, insightful humour. Jackie is the best!
He's a class act.
He opens with honest insults directed at a crowd an an institution that doesn't know what hit them. That's what comedy is supposed to be about.
JACKIE MASON! AMAZINGLY FUNNY AND WITTY! Jackie endures as perhaps the wittiest comedian around in decades. I find myself consistently laughing at the truthfulness of his portrayal of different ethnic groups! He makes us all realize how ridiculous and humorous certain behavior are whether you are Jewish, not Jewish, or of a different religion or persuasion. Leave it to Jackie to deliver these insights with great wit!
Thanks for all the laughs Jackie RIP
All off the cuff, and from memory!-----Have loved Jackie Mason's subtle wit since first seeing him on TV in the early 1960s-----he and Mort Sahl my favorites, though very different styles!
hey what about the style of that clown you all elected as yor fuhrer ? all off the cuff and from the toilet ...errr memory ----and hateful unsubtle 1/2 wit
God bless you Jackie. A legend leaves the scene but will always be with us. What a man.
Look at the quality of that suit...great tailoring.
brilliant the way you engaged the audience at the end! great good humor all the way thru; I'm gonna look for your "next free lecture" on youtube right now, for some more belly laughs! thank you so much!
I've enjoyed Jackie's stand up since the fifties.
I Love this so much. Great man.
Just want to add a comment, but i Already Wrote One, 2 years ago. 😁
Oh Jackie, Jackie, you made me laugh so hard and so long. What a pleasure.
I love Jackie Mason. His humour has a dignity and old-fashioned class that I can really respect. I don't mean to put down any other style of comedy; I just like his perspective. He doesn't get confessional and he is proud of his culture without insisting that others affirm his cultural identity.
Man Jackie Mason was one of my favorites. Here is a guy who tells a joke with a straight face. It's funny you laugh, he goes on to the next one, without laughing himself. What a genius he was!! 😂
He is so calm and great intellectual , clean humour . 😂
Wonderful - from a time when political (in)correctness did not preclude many students' enjoyment of a Jewish comedian.
In other words, the food is lousy, and such small portions. Gotta love it!
ONE OF THE ALL TIME GREATS
My sides hurt listening to him.
Yes, he was a high IQ extremely hilarious comedian--and didn’t have to get vulgar to make you laugh--we’ve lost a lot america--morals, humor, intelligence, common sense
The funniest comedian at Oxford since Frankie Howerd. Neither of them would be even invited today!
COMIC GENIUS !!! Well put and true.
machine gun dialogue..quick hit and then moving on...great technique Bravo Jackie
With his accent and cadence....he should be the "poster boy' for Jews....
RIP Mr Mason. Sometimes I passed out from laughing so hard.
The one and only Jackie Mason. There is no other. I have met him many times and we have laughs together.
Brilliant‼️😂
As always great
Great video Jackie- wish i was there
Brilliant as always....
Jackie is the best comedian ever!

There is nothing "racist" about Mr. Mason. He is just a very funny comic. All this "racist" stuff is a bunch of nonsense. When did we become so unbelievably "sensitive" (to the point of stupidity)?
The first time that someone stood up and screamed "Racist!" or "I'm offended" and instead of rationally pointing out that they were WRONG, period, and shutting it down, we (as a nation, as a people) gave in to them and started becoming more concerned about "feelings" than reality. That's when it began, unfortunately.
Jackie is a treasure!
RIP Mr. Mason. I will never forget you. If you can hear me, thank you for all the good natured fun you brought us before we forgot how freeing it is to laugh at ourselves.
I saw Jackie Mason at the Barbican a long time ago - I laughed so much I had a headache for 2 days after
He is the real deal!!
How wonderful to see students when they had a sense of humour
Before they all became Lefty Loonies
What a delivery.
Jackie was my friend. We loved him up down and sideways and twice on Sunday.
A Jewish grandmother is watching her grandchild playing on the beach when a huge wave comes and washes him out to sea. She pleads, “Please God, save my only grandson. I beg of you, bring him back.” And a big wave comes and washes the boy back onto the beach, good as new. She looks up to heaven and says: “He had a hat! Myron Cohen
Had the pleasure of seeing him perform in Glasgow, genius
What an enigma already!
Every bit as funny today as it was 25 years ago!!
“he’s a controller in the trucking business” 😅
Brilliant !
THE OXFORD SOCIETY .!!!! . WHAT A PRIVILEGE .!!!!!! 😎🇺🇸😎📚🙏🏾📚.....THAT PROOF , HE IS THE BEST .!!!!! .🙏🏾💝🙏🏾....
THANK U .👍❤️🙏🏾😎.....
I loved him because he was to Jewish, that was what I Ioved most and of course his brilliant humor, I will miss him.
Scathing. Loved it. Norm McDonald may have spent a little time soaking up Jackie's vibe.
God bless Jackie.
That was really great! Very funny!
Absolutely brilliant chap he was !
This guy is wonderful
Just brilliant.😊
jackie is great and hilarius !
we can laugh at ourselves!
Thank you Mr. Mason.
He was on the Royal Variety Performance just before Diana Ross
I can imagine Jackie thinking during the introduction "This is goy of goys- look at this kid!" What a wonderful man, a comic genius, and much missed- only Dave Chappelle has his style and guts on what passes for the comedy "scene" today. I namecheck both great men in my new book Becoming a Writer- available from Charlie Byrne's Bookshop in Galway, Ireland. Please excuse the plug and thanks for reading- and Jackie? Keep them laughing in heaven.
somebody help jackie mason got into my safe space
"...and I want it on another PLATE."
Krusty the Klown's rabbi father was one of my all time favourite Simpsons characters. He perfectly captured the impish quality of Jewish humour without ever being corny.
You said it all, I knew this whole thing had something more to it...
awesome thanks again jackie
Absolutely brilliant comedy.

Did you LISTEN, Gareth, or simply pre-judge?
aucourant, if you disagree with Gareth, why not say why, instead of insulting him?
@@4orrcountry Did you READ, 4orrcountry , or simply pre-judge?

Ahahaha. My God, crazy funny.. !!
❤❤❤❤
The guy was a gem, his humor could be savored over and over. RIP Jackie
Brilliant comedian
This kind of comedy requires intelligence to write and deliver.
Most comedy requires intelligence and patience and timing. Most comedians are at least as smart and well traveled as their audience, if not smarter.
Who is that @ 9:06
The best-ever Jewish comedian. RIP Jackie Mason ❤
A comic genius.
Hey..its Krusty's dad !!
Yes, it is
I love Jackie Mason
Look how happy the young people were only 13 years ago. Look at any young crowd today and you see grim faces constantly staring down at their displays. Smartphones and endless pressure from the social sites are the greatest evil of these days.
1992.
Send Chubby Brown to New York, he’ll be a hit overnight!
Saw Mr Mason at the palladiam

This isn't Oxford University. It's a club in Oxford which is completely separate from Oxford University, called the Oxford Union.
