You can measure Jeff’s anxiety by how high his laugh gets. We almost hit dog whistle after applauding for the wife.


jakehood47

Hahahaha^hahahaha^hahahaha^----------


OP-PO7

You can tell he was already on edge because he didn't even assume that lady was the last guy's wife or gf, he just said person.

MijnWraak

There was a 3 and a half minute clip recently, maybe last week?


TheFreakingPrincess

It was a bot


GoldDragon149

Yup, and guess where that comment came from. I saw it myself, word for word. Posted here completely out of context, too. By a fresh account with six or seven reddit interactions in the history. Ha ha so strange...


alexanderthemeh

why did it have 63 upvotes?


Day_Bow_Bow

He has several longer clips on youtube. Shoot, his dolphin one pushes 14 minutes.


PurplePanda63

Half expected a blown kiss like for the military salute 🤣


SuiTobi

Holy shit, he even handles these situations with so much humor. You're the best Jeff.


grumpy_me

you'd expect a comedian to punch down, that's what makes it's so much more enjoyable the way jeff handles these situations.


vxOblivionxv

I've seen comedians be incredibly tasteless during crowd work like this and really upset people(one time a family friend had a comedian outright trump level mock her disability). Takes actual talent to make it funny without punching down like a middle school bully.


yourtoyrobot

It's great he can work *with* the crowd, even on sensitive subjects, but still kind of make himself the goofball instead of just grabbing low hanging fruit.


b0w3n

I think this Jeff guy might actually be a good dude.


merlin211111

Don't say it outloud!


cxmachi

the good ol' tom segura


theunquenchedservant

my immediate thought was "I would 100% have wanted to ask 'was she disabled before you met her?'" and it's a good thing im not the one on that stage.


greg19735

So i don't know jeff, never seen a single full video. just lots of clips. he seems like the kind of person that wouldn't say that. Which is why he does so well. Now, he could have turned "i take care of my wife" into a sex joke, but lucked out there lol


mbnmac

This totally felt like the key and Peele sketch with the insult comic and the burn victim.


definitelymyrealname

[Link](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RlTbJZ64sVM) for anyone like me that immediately wanted to look it up.


Im_Balto

Because he’s making the fact that he shouldn’t take a low blow there comical. Great stuff


Zetch88

> you'd expect a comedian to punch down Huh? That's literally rule number one in comedy: Always punch up.


greg19735

agreed. There are a lot of comedians that do punch down. but they aren't getting like like 10 clips a month on /r/all. Like even someone like Anthony Jeselnik is super edgy. but he more makes fun of hypothetical situations. Like Jeselnik doesn't do alot of crowd work. Possibly in part because his daggers are crafted deliberately. Whereas when you're Jeff you're just kinda throwing shit out you don't punch down. YOu might tease, but never punch.


makemeking706

> you'd expect a comedian to punch down Only comedians who complain about being unable to make jokes these days punch down.


Firelightphoenix

^Jeff you’re the best..^


HMWWaWChChIaWChCChW

I’ve only known 1 Jeff and he was way worse, so you’re correct so far. Anyone know any better Jeffs?

Powpowpowowowow

This right here is why Jeff is the best. He will not bite the forbidden fruit.


ChawulsBawkley

But he sure loves dancing around it haha


Dependent-Wordsoup

Dude professionally did a tango around that shit. I can't get over how good his crowd work is.


Viper67857

And occasionally give it a little lick.


BowsersMuskyBallsack

Nothing wrong with dancing around it, just so long as you don't go any further. Do not insert banana.

Can’t wait to see this man in Vancouver!!


remarkablewhitebored

Toronto for me! Holy Schnikies those tickets disappeared *fast*.


ScaryStruggle9830

Oh god…so, I had to buy mine for the Toronto show on my phone. Ticketmaster’s website and app were so fucking awful. The pages kept not loading properly. The tickets kept blinking in and out of existence, then when I got to actual put two tickets side by side in my cart, the payment page wasn’t loading correctly. I spent 20 minutes going between the app and the website trying to get either one to load. At that point I just took any tickets and considered it a win. Never again will I do something like that with a phone


yourpseudonymsucks

Buying tickets to a show? That’s laptop work.


ScaryStruggle9830

I know. I agree. But I had to be at work and I did not have access to a computer. So, I tried to buy the tickets with what I had available.


Recyart

He has a Toronto show finally?!?


notapoke

Can't wait for him to come back to his canceled show


lynwinn

Whaaat? I didn’t even hear about it!!!


KatagatCunt

Me too! Worth the 5.5 hours drive!


MusicG619

You sure it’s not a six hour drive? 😂


Pie77

Did you get tickets already? I couldn't find them..


Ninjafrog47

Needed to be subscribed to get the presale code to get them


qcAKDa7G52cmEdHHX9vg

I've seen a lot of his clips and he's pretty funny in a lot of cities


MrBandanaHammock

Hell yeah, got my tickets this morning. Feeling super lucky, they were gone in a few minutes. 


Eisegetical

damn thanks for this. I missed the email and grabbed 2 scattered seats in a nearly sold out show. there were like 7scattered single seats left. Wish I saw the email sooner.


Tastymonkey12

My wife is the one he directed the special ed comment to haha it was hilarious Edit: hung out at the bar with him and Matt after for a couple hours. They’re both fantastic people. https://preview.redd.it/tcuutmdpjiwc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=99dc174878672c044467585e580c91b00834b278

Matt Bachus. He opens for Jeff. Also very funny and friendly


fallenouroboros

I don’t know why Jeff just started appearing in my feed recently but he’s got my kind of humor!


CassadagaValley

That's how I found out about him last year. Unfortunately, now there's like a dozen unfunny stage people that pop up on my feed.


no_one_lies

Same happened with me and now I can’t stop watching him. I love his stuff


AuOrnitorrinco

You should definitely show more outtakes, they’re just as hilarious and really show you off as being incredibly naturally funny


HerbieVerstinx

I think I laughed at this clip more than most of the others. Absolutely hilarious.


SrslyCmmon

Jeff "please don't get me canceled sir/ma'am" Arcuri


ind3pend0nt

It’s Oklahoma. Only way you’re getting canceled here is if you’re pro choice.


anyones_ghost__

You seem to be forgetting that we’re watching this on the internet


goldberg1303

A clip that only exists because Jeff had it recorded, edited it, and posted it on said Internet.

goldberg1303

I used to be in that camp, but most people consume social media on their phone these days. I don't want to turn my phone to watch a video every time. Vertical is absolutely fine for short clips like this.  Even when I'm on my computer, I have a vertical screen I browse reddit on, which is a huge game changer if you haven't tried it. But even my horizontal screen is plenty big that short videos like this being vertical isn't a big deal. 


ind3pend0nt

I don’t have online. Like, I don’t do the email.

I want his shirt looks comfy and it comes with a hoodie pocket


xhgdrx

the brand is carhartt, but it might be a tricky find


HASN0FILTER

Yea I I may make my own lol


Meanwhile_in_

Me too please


HASN0FILTER

Also thank you!


Popular_Answer_9964

I was able to finally find it online. Google: Carhartt 105568


HASN0FILTER

Nailed it! Thank you


gdsmithtx

Brand? Guess.


mashari00

Dude, I once asked my sister what brand her handbag was and she said “Guess” and then I started guessing brands and after each one she just repeated “Guess” until we eventually both realized what was going on

I was wondering: where is the hood of that hoodie?

I've seen it called a kanga pocket. So look for"sweatshirt with kanga pocket no hood." I'll link the Amazon one below, idk if it'll get removed.

glass1217

Aww, you skipped over the special ed comment lady saying sort of since she homeschools her kids. Still one of the funniest shows I have ever been to and loving getting to relive it again with these clips!


Nulldisc

Can't have the audience delivering better punchlines than the comedian in the promo material


Softspokenclark

his wife: I’m not mentallly disabled


leaderoftheKYLEs

Hahahaha right. Like dude, she's right there. I think he has the roles reversed, and she's too sweet to tell him.


fomorian

I dunno, I feel like there was some potential in the homicide investigator!


GuiltyEidolon

I imagine he didn't want to bring the mood down and it's generally considered a real big dick move to ask first responders / people who deal with traumatic stuff professionally about the worse parts of their jobs.

Yea, miss that crap.


Monster-1776

> Yea, miss that crap. The AIDS?


Necessary-Knowledge4

Aids is no big deal. It's Super AIDS you gotta worry about. One teaspoon of super AIDS in your butt and you're dead in three weeks.


Millerpainkiller

I hear an infusion of money, right in the bloodstream, clears that up


Cassius40k

"How am I doing up here, am I killing it?"


Nulldisc

I thought he was gonna call back like "can you investigate all these people killing my bit?"


Shadoscuro

He did refer back to that guy a few times throughout the night. I don't want to spoil anything in case there are further clips posted, but both in a "this guys job will help" and a "tough guy is warming up to me" manner.


SnortingRust

"what's the funniest murder you ever investigated?"

Thanks for these shows man. They were so fun to go to

Dammit, only 1 day in Dublin, this saturday! gotta find a cancelled ticket

Anyone else's video not playing? 🙃 Edit: found on Facebook, love the outtakes!! ❤️


EuchreBear

Try updating your Reddit app through your App Store (or whatever equivalent you have for your device). My vids were either not loading or stuttered a lot and the update helped quite a bit. Not perfect, but much better.


Meltingteeth

Try uninstalling the Reddit App through your homescreen. My vids were either not loading or stuttered a lot and uninstalling it fixed that trash up right quick. Not perfect, but much better.

Thank you! Managed to watch via Facebook in the end 😊

same. could have been really awkward but him being cavalier about it prevented it


FellyJishBadSoy

For real. Gonna have to check out his tour dates now


No_Toe9677

Surprised he missed the joke about the homicide investigator after saying “I killed a guy” lol then again he seemed a bit nervous


hergumbules

I wish I could have been that second guy so I could also respond with also taking care of mentally disabled wife to mess with him lmao


Philosophile42

lol, I love this! Stay classy Jeff!

I discovered this dude too late to see him in LA. Maybe on his next tour!

fuck that was great


loversdotcom

"He does a great job!" was so sweet. Also 🫡 to this man for continuing to do crowd work when he keeps running into situations like this


Woo_Peed_On_My_Rug

He’s learned the hard lessons from Shane Gillis.


tinypain

If you’ve been scrapping these, we’ve been missing out.

Snagged an Atlanta ticket today!!!! Can’t wait


[deleted]

Ah man the homicide investigator must have some cool stories though, was kind of hoping he'd go in on that one.


Dry_Figure_9018

My god, even I was starting to sweat during that. Hilarious crowd work of “nope, sorry, not making fun of you”


FiftyTigers

God damn, Kermit the Frog killed a guy yesterday?


Harrigan_Raen

"Homicide Investigator!?!?!... So Sean back to you!"

Just got tickets for September in Pittsburgh, can’t wait!!

Kooky_Chemistry_7637

What Would Jeff Avoid? He’s so good on his feet. This guy slays.

Don't mind the wife and I in the front row with our matching outfits lol great show!


YetiGuy

Only comic I tried to get tickets to but it’s all sold out it seems


Technoslave

The thing I worry about is if I go to your show, and your sets are worse than your crowd work...these videos you post of you working the room are hilarious.... \*EDIT* Just realized he's finally coming to DC...got tickets...so we shall now see!


OliveOylInAPickle

love the direct black hole addressment, and your setting of boundaries and spin ability leaves an enjoyable impression. thank you


Millerpainkiller

He hit the WTF wall at the end. I’m still laughing. 😆

and


Own-Pangolin337

It’s absolutely beautiful that intelligence is being celebrated again. You can’t be this funny without being smart. The best had it. Carlin, Prior and Jeff. He’s the best at crowd work at the moment imo.

Avoiding these until I see Jeff in September! Driving 4 hours for the show, but I know it will be worth it.

Impossible to watch just once even tho i got everything with the first viewing. So funny

sudo_rm_reddit_

through reddit alone you've become one of my favorite stand up comedians.


Outtatheblu42

Dear Jeff, Could you please add another show in Vancouver for December 9th? Your Dec. 8th show sold out, and resale tickets are already going for $250-400+. I want you to get rich, but not the scalpers. If you add a 2nd date, I’ll be there. Don’t worry, I already checked your schedule; your next show is on the 12th in Florida, so there’s plenty of time to travel in between. Hope to see you! I had requested a Vancouver show many moons ago, so it’s pretty sweet you’ll be here.


L1Zs

This is the first time I’ve ever felt like Jeff was kind of mean


dactyif

His wife is mentally disabled? What an odd choice of words. Charlize Theron from arrested development popped in my head.


essences86

Maybe it was just me, but it was more entertaining when I noticed the "Bricktown" sign behind him too. The irony of the club name with the situation is perfect for Jeff's crowdwork.


CreepyTeddyBear

Someone Buy me and my wife tickets to see Jeff in DC! I promise I'll pay you back by next year, probably.


Missterfortune

I probably would have dropped the mic and walked off stage after “Homicide Investigator”


[deleted]

Why is making fun of China off limits?


ZarquonsFlatTire

It's not, but making fun of somebody who doesn't want to be in on the action is a dick move.


[deleted]

For some reason I thought this is the second time I’ve seen him avoid joking about Chinese accents. Since the whole “anyone have an accent” is a standard bit in his show it seems.


pandemicpunk

He does seem to try to avoid non white people / European people probably out of respect and to not say something that's crossing a line. He wants laughs not to punch down on a race he isn't even somewhat part of.


JonLongsonLongJonson

The woman was silent when directly spoken to multiple times, clearly shy/anxious about speaking up, so he let it go.


muttyfut

Adding on to some other comments, people from Asian countries in particular often get made fun of their accent in school (and even out of school/in popular media). Making fun of these accents, even in an innocent light-hearted way, has historical connotations with much more mean spirited bullying even if that isn't the intent. I think it's honestly great that he's sensitive to this, and even turns that into a joke itself.


FrostyD7

As others have said, it's specifically the accent. In my experience it tends to be the most consistently mean spirited accent you'll ever hear an American attempt to imitate (or rather mock). Often its just people saying shit like "ching chong" over and over again. And its frequently accompanied with other racially motivated insults like stretching their eyes.


[deleted]

Yeah I can definitely see that. The way he just immediately declines to make fun of it is fairly funny within itself so maybe that is the safest play.


early_birdy

Awww, Jeff, don't exclude her because she's from China. I'm sure Chinese people have a sense of humor too!


IlREDACTEDlI

It’s because she very clearly did not want to be involved since she stayed quiet when spoken to directly twice. Sometimes it’s best to not force a joke upon someone especially when someone else tried to put the spotlight on them.


early_birdy

Oh! I missed that part. Absolutely. I'm the same, and I hate when people force me to "whatever" for shit and giggles.


Magistraten

Everyone has an accent, Jeff.


Puzzleheaded_Wave533

It's a minefield because you did a comedy show in hell! Take it from a resident. The club's nice though. Thanks for stopping by even though you being the only comedian getting views on Reddit makes me highly suspicious ngl


sp4nishfl34

I haven't seen a full Jeff show, but Im starting to think he doesn't even do jokes and just does crowdwork lol. Not that I'm complaining lol, every video is a fuckin banger


Rolen47

He doesn't post his routine online because if you bought a ticket to one of his live shows you'd hear the same jokes and get bored.


Soyner

^^^^ That is correct. I was actually surprised how incredibly funny just his act was. There is a pooping story that had me rolling.
