David Cross - Stand Up Comedy, Traveling, Gifts - Jim Norton & Sam Roberts

[@JeffNixonComedy]

He looks like a nu-metal bassist who reads blogs about soup

[@HotBoxTrucking]

LOL this made my morning

[@Ronlei]

why that does that make so much sense to me?

[@mikeisapro]

I always thought of him as a sort of hipster who is a bit too old to be a hipster. Especially in the recent decade or so in which he started sporting a neckbeard and wearing flannel and plaid shirts so often, though here he's wearing some indiscernible shirt thanks to the mic, it's probably ironic. Also, his material is so often sarcastic and ironic, along with the nature of his overall demeanor/attitude, and he exudes a certain degree of pretentiousness and elitism. I doubt I'm the first to think of the word "hipster" when stereotyping him. IIRC, he himself admitted that he has a hipster-ish vibe that either he himself recognized, or ceded that others have recognized. In the end, it's all just labels man.

To be fair, proper New England Clam Chowder is amazing

[@mikeisapro]

manticorepheonix- Indubitably.

[@JamJells]

I hope Netflix buys your show DC. Love your angle of humor. Thanks J&S for bringing the best of comics to You Tube.

[@iggy4774]

I think David Cross is underrated, great comedian.

[@TheCalvinProblen]

Saw Cross perform in London last month, he's awesome.

[@drowsysauce9981]

David Cross is the best.

[@revfunk8823]

Great interview guys!!! David is awesome

[@robertfoster8742]

Actually about that edible arraignment bit. When my mother died my colleagues sent me one. I was sleeping in the palliative care center every night and the food there was terrible so I didn't eat much. When I got home the day after she died, it was the BEST thing they could have sent me, because I had practically no food in 3 days.

[@paul_bellini]

I appreciate the candor.

[@chancewallace47]

Its soooo fucking difficult to overcome so I really respect and admire comics who can handle bombing and take it in stride, but I absolutely LOVE those few comics who somehow actually thrive/enjoy/revel in it. IMO there is no one better or more fearless than Norm MacDonald at successfully bombing. He loves it so he never tries to correct/avoid it, so he just steers right into it instead. He is the KING of using uncomfortable, awkward, high anxiety situations/atmospheres/crowds to craft something HILARIOUS. The best thing about his style of comedy is the total unpredictability. Sometimes you aren't even sure what part of the joke you're in so you really have to stay on your toes. Dude is a genius.

[@skylersmith26]

When there's someone is funny in the room Sam seems to just repeat what they say to make it look like he has an opinion that acutely matters.

[@Talisman09]

Omg you're actually a cutie!

[@phillynch392]

His fake beards have gotten lot more realistic since Mr. Show.

[@petesmith9475]

and his comedy going downhill by the way.

[@louie9373]

I'm loving the beard David Cross!

[@TheKnowspicker]

You can send me all the edible arrangements you want! I enjoy them and consider them thoughtful. Eeeesh

[@gregoryturner9530]

edible arrangements are great! I always seem to get them after medicating too which is the best time to get em!

[@kiesemedia433]

i really liked watching this video. keep going ☺

[@ZOMBIEHEADSHOTKILLER]

all these episodes should be the full thing............. cutting them off always sucks......

[@sinspinnnnn]

damnit... i knew i should have gone and seen david cross at the orange peel

[@sani8646]

Ronnie Dobbs "BOOYAHH!!!!"

[@HashbeanSC2]

This guy will always be a legend because of Scary Movie 2.

[@emmetLshavinski]

Jim should have been ecstatic over Dave Grohl saying that. He would've realized to not forget that he danced.

[@allthatyoutouch3164]

Are they saying it's cruel to send someone an edible arrangement ? To be thoughtless would be to do nothing at all.

[@edukun67]

7:20 Thanks, next time i'll send a ps4.

[@noahway13]

What is with all the background people in this podcast? Distracting.

[@JJStarcade]

Wow Sam is a good interviewer. First time watching cuz I love David Cross but good job Jim and Sam.

[@wilsondukeoflizards]

I love Cross but this interview made me love Jimmy more than I already did.

[@brianlaughlin8974]

what's with the pelt on the lower part of his face?

[@frantura7482]

chicken pot chicken pot chicken pot pie..

[@lucrativelyrics8131]

ohh, now i understand why david cross speaks so slowly/thoughtfully - he cannot tell a lie ("always tells the truth") so has to be constantly double checking what he says before saying it, to make sure it's all accurate..

[@joeyboikly]

Sam’s voice, yuccchhkk

[@rainkinggw]

Wore his Michael Stipe costume

[@bowlofrice1006]

People like this guy more than gad?

[@sqaure4175]

I love David cross, but I’m keeping time for his first stupid trump comment/complaint

[@Jeremy-ob4gm]

Cool

[@mikeisapro]

Maybe watch his "Making America Great Again!"special, or watch his recent live tours. He doesn't hit too hard against Trump, but there's a bit of that there. Though I wouldn't call any of that material "stupid".

[@sqaure4175]

Dionysus I’ve watched or listened to pretty much everything he’s ever done. I’m a huge fan, but there’s something with all these left leaning comedians, him included that do the same trump slights during interviews. I find all politics repulsive, that’s why I dislike when they do it.

[@mikeisapro]

I'm with you on that, I hate it when comedians use political talking points in their act, especially if it's not funny. Dennis Miller comes to mind. But I've seen little partisan politics from David. He touches on things and makes fun of everything, but he doesn't seem to me to be for one party or the other, except on specific issues like gun control, and even then, he doesn't really use his stage performances as some platform for right or left-wing talking points, a la Miller, but rather is just being a comedian and making jokes tangentially related to his views, and it makes me laugh and I take it with a grain of salt. I agree totally that partisan politics is awful, and I don't want to see it in comedy, unless the context is light and the material is funny, and even then, it shouldn't make up a majority of the show. But any person simply expressing distaste for any president during interviews isn't offensive to me at all. I didn't give a fuck when Louis said he liked Hillary in an interview, as he's a great comedian that made me laugh a lot and was never partisan in his act. Cross is also a great comedian, and while he obviously doesn't like Trump, he doesn't make much ado about it, in my opinion. But if David offends anyone because of his personal beliefs related in interviews or made in jest during his act, then they're free to not listen to or watch his material or his interviews.

[@iggy4774]

Fuck trump, make all the jokes you want about that guy, nothing should be off limits to comics, it's all good.

[@BB-ez1mp]

So Troy is a Morrissey fan. Figures.

[@alexolife]

David Cross's act used to be funny when Bush was president.

[@unclejune2839]

He stinks. Slow and boring.

[@brendonbrucale3283]

This guy again. Not funny

[@emmetLshavinski]

Jim should have been ecstatic over Dave Grohl saying that. He would've realized to not forget that he danced.
