carl baron is peak comedy, imagine being able to make everyone laugh without insulting other people that those people don't like

[@0zzyninja]

Observational comedy is peak.

[@janelletwiner4289]

This man is one of the funniest comedians in Australia. I’ve seen him live and I was nearly peeing my pants from laughing.

[@WakeUpMate19]

Jim Jefferies is also another great one

[@stephenhall9073]

The expression for hard rain is “ it’s pissin’-down”.

[@jenniferharrison8915]

Cheers Ryan! 🎊 Carl Barron is so natural and laidback, he also never uses bad swearwords or purposely insults anyone! 😁👍

[@TanyaDolan]

I never realised just how much we loved to use words like "Piss" in so many different ways. Apart from, Pissin Down: heavy downpour of rain Get Pissed/ or Gettin on the Piss: getting drunk (drink too much and you'll shitfaced and/or legless) Gettin Pissed Off/or Gettin Pissie: angry or agro; tell someone to Piss Off: get away Gettin Pissed On: When a person/people are criticising you quite harshly for unknown reasons. Piss Fart Around/ Piss Fartin Around: just wastin time doin nuffin (nothing); doing things at a leisurely pace Pissin in someone's pocket: lying to them Pisshead: a drunkard or drunk person Pissin ya self larfin (laughing): self-explanatory Something or someone was so funny... Piss Up: a party or gathering where alcohol is served

[@partymanau]

Piss into the wind, trying to do something u know is imossible.

We call it 'crop-dusting' if you fart in the supermarket or a crowd & keep walking.

[@tonytutone2003]

When I moved from London to Newcastle in Nsw Aus, one of the first things I saw on Aussie tv was Carl Barron on the Footy show. I had no idea about ‘footy’-rugby league but he was so funny. Years later I met him. He was one of the most genuine people I’ve ever met. Recently he made a small film which you can find online and his most recent special “Drinking with a fork” is very funny. He is in life what you see on stage.

[@MitchellBreen-fv1nd]

Smart choice to come here if you love a Lough and can take a joke even tho we can be vulgar you set and one of us 😂

Going on random tangents mid video is the reason half of us are here. Share screen and do it. Haha.

The comedy show that you watched has a lot of commedians all do a very quick set to show off many who is apart of the Comedy Festival. He'd be in town doing his own solo shows every other night of the Comedy Festival.

[@CarolGration]

Carl's always funny. 😂

[@loverlyme]

The alcohol part: that's called a piss-up. The raining, that's pissing down.

[@pamelabaars6896]

One of my favourite comedians.

[@twoflyinghats]

Can I say, Ryan, how much I admire your ability to type something you want to google without looking at your keyboard? It's a SUPERPOWER that you younguns have! We oldies had to teach ourselves and it was always the wrong most basic way.

[@heartshapedisle]

Carl does great observational comedy. He's also the embodiment of ADHD train of thought let loose. This was extra fast as it was a 10 minute slot not his own show.

I would just like to say, to Ryan, the way to pronounce emu is ‘EEM-YOU’ also as an Australian, I’m currently drinking tea, and listening to the British national anthem and the Aussie one at the same time- just cause I felt like it, Happy fourth of july to Americans And Fifth of July to the Aussies

[@dutchroll]

He knows - he now just takes the piss with the "emu" pronunciation!

[@Dr_KAP]

To be fair if we’re gonna make him say Eem-you then we also need to start saying Noo York and Noo Orlens 😂

[@Smokey7186]

@@pilkie-27 E mew...

[@dutchroll]

@@Dr_KAP well... I'd argue those place names are accent dependent (especially "Norlens") whereas emu has aways been pronounced with a palatal consonant. Americans can do it if they try - they don't say "ooniversity" for that higher education institution! 😉

We have both roofers and roof tilers, roof tilers specialise mostly in doing the tiles. Where as roofers do the corrugated iron and sometimes tiles

[@karenstrong8887]

You need to watch the one where Carl makes up his own language. He is really clever and he ends it with every sound he made up in the correct place. Yes, he was a roof tiler.

Bit of a pisser is spot on, Ryan!

[@partymanau]

Pisser can also mean pub or toilet.. Going to the pisser. Like most Oz words, meaning varies with facial expression, voice tone, situation and who says it to whom.

[@oodles_of_noodles.]

Pissa = hilarious/awesome. The weather...It's pissing down rain here.

[@gavinmclean3174]

Anyone else remember Paul Hogan when he was doing stand up?

[@jocelynhunter2359]

Yeah the comedy festival has a "gala" event every year where many comedians get 5 minute spots. You get a feel for who they are and then you can go see the ones you like the best.

[@FarnarkleKing]

Saying that it was a pisser during the 4th of July (correct) was also a pisser that you said it. Pisser - A letdown Pisser - Raining Pisser - Funny remark You're becoming Australian mate, these are all worrying signs for your neighbors.

Paul Hogan used to paint the Sydney Harbour Bridge! Tradies, born to make you laugh.

[@MartinSchurmann-ym1ly]

Happy 4th of July. Good to have a laugh. Just got home from work & this is what I needed. 😅

[@xymonau2468]

Paul Hogan worked as a rigger on the Sydney Harbour Bridge before he became a comedian. He entered a talent show called "New Faces" - the basis of the spoof section of Hey Hey It's Saturday's "Red Faces" - as a "tap dancing knife thrower", and his career launched from there because he was so popular. So going from labourer to comedian is a path well travelled, it seems.

[@Mirrorgirl492]

I remember it well. He walked out with a garbage can on his shoulder and blew us all away.

[@Aurochhunter]

I suggest reacting to Flacco and the Sandman next.

[@itsmebloke]

I watched this when it 1st came out. Dead set no word of a lie. A couple of days later I went to visit my mum and little sister at my sisters house. And we were on the back veranda (patio, deck, landing, porch) sitting around a garden table, and my mother was bringing out some snacks or drinks (something irrelevant to the story any way). When all of a sudden, her body contorted in a weird manner, and she pulled the oddest expression I've ever seen on her face and stared straight at me. Seeing this, I instinctly asked her, "What the bloody hell are you doing, mum?" To which she responded "I'M FARRING!" Chuckled at me then went about what she was doing. Needless to say I lost my sh1t laughing at her and promptly told her and my sisters family to go and watch the new Carl Barron Special.

[@FairnessFobe]

Karl Baron. He's a legend!

[@lesflynn4455]

My stomach hurts I laughed so much. Carl Barron is great.

[@melaniepinner7699]

Fluff is referring to things floating in the air He was saying when he was watching the person tal to themselves, he was talking to HIMself as he was watching and he said someone was probably looking at HIM saying “That guys talking to himself”

[@aussiedanjones]

Paul Hogsn was a teamster on the Sydney Habour Bridge

[@MsTtilly]

We would say "it's pissing down out there" 😂

[@cypherglitch]

The different ways the word piss or pissing can be used 1. Someone can be pissed, drunk 2. Someone can be Pissed, angry. To know the difference when hearing it, its all on the inflection. To really emphasised the P means angry. 3. It can be pissing down, for added emphasises - pissin down cats and dogs. rain, the rain is extremely heavy 4. Someone can be piss fartin around, they are wasting time. Not doing much.. what the americas call "lolygagging" which sounds a sex fetish bdsm thing 5. Something or someone is a pisser, pissa, is very funny. 6. Going to a piss up, means one is going to attend a party with alot of booze. So if someone asks you to attend a piss up, it has nothing to do with sexual fetishes. So you can go to an outdoor piss up, and while at the party get so pissed that you dont notice its pissing down, and end up getting pissed at someone for piss fartin around and blocking your path stopping you from having a piss.

Calling it a pisser is perfect 😂 thats like saying its wrecked and raining at the same time. Cos you can say its pissing down (rain), and he's pissed (drunk or angry)

[@capatheist]

You would say "it's pissing down" if it's raining hard... But a "pisser" is a get together that's primary purpose is consuming as much alcohol as possible

[@wilsonperez2668]

Piss up 🎉😂

You should look up Jon English he was a very funny Australian comedian my favourite is when he did the play The Pirates of Penzance but he has a lot of other funny stuff too

[@mizpahshearer1659]

Absolutely love Billy. I've seen him twice when he came to Australia and my ribs and face muscles hurt for a week after. I think he's the funniest man alive.❤

[@LaDyFaCe180]

When Carl says fluff he means the dust particles in the air.

[@Moarlatz]

0:20 "It's pissing down" is the correct phrase. Also, we don't really say "Good arvo" here as a greeting, I mean you can say it if you like and some people do, but in general, we say good afternoon when greeting someone as it flows more naturally. The "Arvo" slang is used for laziness and to state a broad window of time, for example, "Yeah I'll drive around this arvo". Or "I'll call you back in the arvo". Or "Yeah CBF maybe this arvo, I'll let you know later". In general, that's its use.

[@WylieKiote]

Carl Barron is a pissa, he talks about random everyday stuff that we've all done or witnessed, thats why we laugh so much. He is a mad bastard, but we love mad bastards, hell we've got em running the Country 😂

Hey Ryan, just a bit of medical info you might be interested… there are some risks of holding in a sneeze such as a ruptured eardrum, rupture of superficial blood vessels to the eye or nose, throat or neck pain, and less commonly, rupture of a brain aneurysm or rib fractures.
