David Spade is one of the most naturally funny guys out there. His standup is good, but he is way better just talking off the cuff and telling stories. Definitely under appreciated.

[@bosmith1820]

You know who is really funny? Joe Rogan!

[@scurvyelephant333]

It’s its own special underrated talent. I’ll totally binge David Spade interviews. I think he undersells himself comparing to other types of comedians when they’re not nearly as funny in the same way as he is.

[@ronniechilds2002]

I agree. I always like his standup, but in interviews, or really conversations with just about anyone, he is hilarious. He is hysterically funny on Ellen, for example. And he's really good on Howard Stern, too, possibly Howard's funniest guest ever.

[@MJLUCEY-sd1mq]

Spade is effortlessly funny. His throwaway lines here, as well as most other p[laces, are the best. Maher is always talking to people as if they're stupid. Always referencing his past statements and jokes, reminding people how clever he is. Always trying to lead or prompt his guests into making derogatory judgments about his own favorite targets. Most don't indulge him though. When he is on, I think he is funny, but he tends to want to beat a dead horse.

[@rogue-like4life]

I'm going to give it the old college try right now. Wish me the best kind of luck!

Spade is awesome. He’s naturally witty, humble, and comfortable in his own skin. Always a great guest. Plus, you can tell Bill genuinely likes him.

[@mojoyote5924]

I've seen Bill being being so snotty and rude and judgmental with other guests, lately (not only 'lately, to be honest), that I don't even want to click on this, sadly, although it came up in suggestions from KZbin just now.

For someone who doesn't regret not getting married, Bill seems to talk about it a lot.

[@LadyBug1967]

So true. What made this night different was that neither of them have been married and it's just the way it is. The way it happened or didn't happen. So I think this night when they spoke, Bill didn't feel like somehow he was left behind or left out or missed the boat because they were both in the same boat and they were content and maybe more content than the married guy who comes on; talks about his kids; talks about his wife. But they could just just talk and just be and it's peaceful and that's nice.

[@nicholasalexanderhanley8598]

Agreed, i wish the marriage topic was off limits like politics. Seems every podcast is half about his distaste for it. That horse is thoroughly dead

[@helethead]

@G-Talks yep. Nobody wants to fuck their dad. Grampa?

[@birdseye3634]

@G-Talksif either Bill or David wanted to be married then, now whatever they would be. It is misogyny when we KEEP discussing why a woman would NOT wish to be married (for whatever reason) ultimately defined as wife. Their relationship status is not that interesting or insightful in 2023. They are confident in their skin! That is Attractive in all humans. I am fairly sure that they are aware they are single & they are fine with it. Why does it matter; except as common denominator in judgment. Lives well lived imo! Peace ✌️

[@nopenope2632]

I've always thought Spade was very funny and enjoyed his Stand-Up. In the last decade or so, watching the different iterations of shows with his namesake, along with watching his talk show appearances (especially Ellen and Norm) and listening to the FOTW podcast , I've come to the conclusion that I've moved David Spade comfortably into my top 5 favorite comedy minds/funniest people. He's a top-tier Stand-Up. He has some of the best comedic timing and one of the best comedic actors. AND he is naturally hilarious, witty, and incredibly quick. Most funny people have either one or two of those qualities but not all three. Spadoodle has 'em all! "Push in" at 2:15 is one of many examples of how effortlessly he can lob a quick comedic grenade into the mix and obliterate the scene for a bit leaving Maher and others in the room I'd expect, humorously incapacitated. All Hail Spudley!

It's got nothing to do with that episode. Spade has well-known bad back issues, which he's talked about publicly and in one of his books (stemming from a highschool stage accident).
