I think Henry Cho is adorably funny, respectful and if he repeats a joke I’ve heard before , I enjoy just as much as I did the first time! Both my 🎉mother and her mother grew up in Knoxville.
Henry’s been really good for a really long time. I got to meet him after he did a set at a private event & got to chat with him for a good while. He’s a solid guy & gave me some Newlywed advice that has stuck with me for over a dozen years. sadly, this was just weeks after he lost his pal Hedberg & told me a few stories that I promised not to share. I keep up with Henry’s touring schedule & see him whenever he’s close. he remembers me by name every time. I’ve seen him play 6-7 shows & he’s Killed every set, every time.
clegg, you are telling lies again...spent far too long at the brain donation kiosk, you have donated too many times...wear your helmet for fuck's sake...cor blimey, gormless gobshite...
@@_Sakidora_ damnit, didn’t we? have you ever watched Mitch’s ‘Los Enchiladas’ film? I’ll post a link. see many comics in the game from back then, if you haven’t, it’s Hedberg, Attell, Barry, Bamdord, Maron and many others…You’re Welcome! ua-cam.com/video/kdjlSbWBzgc/v-deo.html
As a teen visiting my mom’s (small!) N.C. home town, I smilingly remember my cousin “E.L.” asking me if I wanted to “…go down to the corner and watch the ‘signal light’ change.”
I'm from Knoxville Tennessee and I love listening to Henry Cho. His mom is a retired special needs teacher. She was so proud and excited for him when he performed at the Tennessee Theater in Knoxville. We're very proud of him, too 😊
Henry was one of my heroes. Being a Korean kid in a white world, Henry was someone I could aspire to. I wasn’t accepted by my Korean brethren, not accepted by the white kids, not accepted by the brown kids… so TV was my safe place. Over time, I just found the right people but a PITA to be an Asian in a non-Asian country.
It might seem funny to some, someone asking an Asian if they are Indian but here is what happened to my wife and I. In the 80's we lived near the Mescalero Apache in New Mexico. While going up to Cloud Croft we stopped at the store that was about half way up. Looking through the store a Mescalero asked the wife, a native of downtown Tokyo, Japan, what tribe she was. The wife spoke limited English at the time, but replied " Edo Ko ". It took about five minutes to explain that she was Japanese, despite her western shirt, jeans, boots and braided hair. No body got mad and had a good day looking around.
SAME. Craig was weird throughout tho, he sorta complained in the beginning about having so many dates to read for Henry’s shows, and his whole vibe was hostile at the end. Henry was doing good “talk show bullsh*ttin” convo but Craig was acting like he had to pee real bad or something. I dunno but it bugged me too
@@Omeomeom lol hopefully “sorry for being such a dick, but I’ve had to pee real bad this whole time.” LOL. So, I live in Knoxville, and I’m going to start keeping an eye out for Henry so if I ever see him I can clear this whole thing up by asking him! I doubt I’ll ever actually see him irl but still I would bet money that he remembers this. I don’t watch a lot of Craig’s clips but I feel like in what I’ve seen he’s normally a gregarious, happy seeming guy and this is atypical behavior for him.
@@OmeomeomI’m a generally unreliable person on most things, but I absolutely swear to god I will update this thread if I ever see Henry out here in these East TN streets. I mean it! Check back every 5 years or so, bc now I’m on a mission.
We moved to this town in Indiana close to where my husband found work, expressly for educational opportunity and so that our kids wouldn't be asked every whipstitch if they were adopted if only one of their parents were with them. I grew up in Alaska and while my town was sufficiently close to the 1930s federal incentive program to bring Dust Bowl farmers to the area from Minnesota, North Dakota, etc, among the original inhabitants there were several military bases nearby, a lot of educators, and missionary transplants, so in the balance there was the possibility that no one relatively felt 'out of place'. Different story when moved to Wyoming, but close to state college and border with northern Colorado (Denver) and also that year we lived in Fargo where older son was asked by his clueless third grade teacher to help acclimate and interpret for a new Korean girl student. (Arriving to LA for a short stay in the Japanese neighborhood, my future husband at the BMV was asked if he was Mexican, yet when he took a Greyhound out to Wyoming and told the driver he needed to make a transfer in Cheyenne, was told the bus didn't go to China.) So this older child attended his friend's Bar Mitzvah, was one of best men at his friend's traditional Hindu wedding, and hung around with kids from Vietnam, the Phillipines, Egypt, as well as the other kids crazy about computers and games. Younger son has pretty much only vicarious experience growing up in this college town which is has one of the largest foreign student bodies in USA. That has its disadvantages, but analogously to Mr Cho's experience, older son had different upbringing than younger son who had serious expectations of maintaining model American status among his peers. Some time, I think, culture will change if we can get past some of the artificial political divisions in this country.
Wild that you came all the way into a 4 year old low quality clip from a show taped in 2014 to say this stuff about a comedian who isn’t very well known. That’s just like, a ton of specificity for something you aren’t seeking out and trying to find
@@doggietreats67 yeah but like, ffs, be a discerning media consumer dude, I can typically tell before I choose to watch something whether or not it’s going to appeal to me. No one should get this deep into anyone’s oeuvre and be complaining. You should be clicking on other videos, this is a skill issue
I’m actually from Arab, AL and we love Henry Cho!

What was the advice @corporalclegg914 ?
I live in Arab and we love this guy!
That is fantastic, He is truly great
I was looking for this comment. ❤
Arab, Alabama
The way he says always guessed it was spell Aah-RAB. :)
Want to see a whole show with Henry, he is a natural, funny, likeable great comedian!
Clean jokes and still so funny,not everyone can be clean to make people laugh😂
Anybody with talent can be clean and funny. That's the difference.
Anyone who needs a lesson in comedic timing needs to watch a Henry Cho set. Absolutely impeccable
That was really funny! I laughed out loud several times!
Still loving Henry Cho!
We met a small number of Asian kids who grew up in Tenn. All had Southern accents.
One would think so.
“What’s that clickin’ noise?
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣‼️
I adore Henry ❤
As a teen visiting my mom’s (small!) N.C. home town, I smilingly remember my cousin “E.L.” asking me if I wanted to “…go down to the corner and watch the ‘signal light’ change.”
Any white guy asking if you're Indian is about to tell you that he's also Indian lol
He came to my college to perform - way back in around ‘88! Funny man!
Timing is everything, Henry got it! Also the story telling is as good as Dave Chappelle's.
Henry has been funny since high school. West H.S. Knoxville
Woo! I went to Carter in straw plains, but I’m still gonna woo at Knoxville!
Good to know I guess that he went to Farragut so I guess my guess was wrong
I'm from Knoxville Tennessee and I love listening to Henry Cho. His mom is a retired special needs teacher. She was so proud and excited for him when he performed at the Tennessee Theater in Knoxville. We're very proud of him, too 😊
I remember seeing him on the comedy compilations shows they used to have on tv really late at night. He is hysterical!
Henry is great! Seen him many times over the years, excellent every time!

I was adopted. We feel ur pains. 😢❤
are things better now
The Last plane out set up was hilarious..
I love listening to him on Satellite Radio.
Love this guy

White guys with Asian women are a dime a dozen. The opposite not so much. Not the same thing
So handsome! Even when he wears flannel lol
I want him to take over John Cho role of Lt. Sulu in "Star Trek".
Henry is great!😂
The tonight show,starring Henry Cho!!
That was great 👍
He’s hilarioussssss
At what point did the Chik-a-filet joke migrate to his daughter?
Or from daughter to son.
I miss his show so much ...
If only Sacagawea would ever be put on a US currency I would be thrilled.
Uh, did you miss the dollar coin? Google is your friend.
@@janetzellman4912 haha ! I never saw one !
Arab 🤣 love when jokes hit close to home.
I love it!😂
Makes me CRYYY LMAOOOO
Go Bobcats !! Class of '82
Ive been through Arab,AL a few times.
he's cool :)
Hilarious cool korean dude with swag and confidence
He does somewhat looks Native American though 😆
Bering Strait?
@nickhayes I am from Arab as well!
Henry Cho you did it again! What did you did lol? You nailed it, bless your pea pickin' sole. Always did like Minnie Pearl. 🤣💖👏
What date was this?
February 03, 2014 on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson Season 10, Episode 90.
@5:12 what happened there... why did he say "Knock it off man, don't do that" after that joke. Just genuinely curious what was going on there.

Dang it, in another version of that Native American name joke it was his daughter.
YES IT WAS
I been to Arab, Ala.
You hang out at walmart in Arab lol
Craig’s vibe is weirdly hostile throughout this clip
The jog. Mash.
I saw it on MASH! Ha ha ha! These days it takes foljs of a certain age to get that !
I love Henry, but he’s been doing that same routine for 30 years. Exactly the same way.
Who is this white stand up comedian? 🤣
Funny how, Mr. Cho (Christian) is still going strong
and Craig Ferguson (heathan)......???
I have watched several and the jokes are all the same. Funny first couple times but then......
Not as funny as I remember him from long ago.
Same one over and over, no wonder why he isn't famous.
Same comedy lines over and over and over again! Not funny…. Need new material
You're new to comedy, aren't you?
@@rockinredneck57- come you need new material … gets old…. All his videos have same jokes told again, less funnier than previous.
@@doggietreats67 same shit different difference year…. Tired of hearing same stories but changed a bits
He’s not funny at all
Hes bad, really really bad. How this is his profession idk.

@@doggietreats67 not YOU you, I mean OP or the broader you
Why is this man not more famous
Because he does clean comedy. Sad reflection on most of society. I think he is GREAT.
Plus he only does shows that doesn't keep him away from home for very long. He's a family man!
Simple answer, bcz hes Terrible.
Because he doesn't need to be
Because he is content for his gigs which are enough! He had turned down many offers already as well!
He’s not funny at all
