Desi Lydic Speaks to Real-Life Florida Men | The Daily Show

[@DinNDee]

When the first guy said Mental Health Issues I almost died laughing. He was so serious and CORRECT!

[@gmailrockmcbride49508]

And he said it WHILE HE WAS OUTSIDE DRINKING haha even HE knows what's going on. What wrong with the rest of you? Haha

[@Makrel94]

You have to respect him for being so honest 👍

[@MooseMaunu]

Desi is a true treasure. How she kept a straight face when asking Mr. Wildman "what kind of dancing did you do with the alligator?" will haunt me for days. 😅

[@mrkevinhaughey]

I just happened to read this comment at the exact moment Desi asked the question, and it made it that much better.

[@paulspeakman551]

I've been a Florida man for 43 of my 63 years, and it's been my observation that because most people here came from somewhere other than Florida, in most cases, Florida man brought his crazy with him. I would cite Donald Trump, Michael Flynn, and Tucker Carlson as examples.

[@in4cer457]

Well said. 😂😂😂😅

[@jimray4731]

Ask yourself, why does crazy from outside Florida come to Florida to do crazy. It seems to me that the openly crazies in FLA make outside hidden crazies think it’s normal in Florida. The Mecca of nut jobs.

[@iamgroot7277]

Hahahaha sounds about right

[@ThatOpalGuy]

Rhonda santis...

[@BurmaJ]

I blame the flame for the fires, not the moths.

[@preetishah8541]

Desi should be the next permanent host of the daily show!

[@38tech]

Live in Florida for like 6 yrs. You are not wrong. Heat, mental health, and alcoholism.

[@derkeheath5172]

And women. Don't you DARE ignore what the pirate said!

[@drumpfisidiot5021]

​@@derkeheath5172are the women down there just different?...

[@fan.80s_90s]

Alcohol is so cheap in Florida?

[@drumpfisidiot5021]

@@fan.80s_90s anything and everything down south is cheap....those people can't afford much.

[@om-nj2hw]

And the gators

[@RedStretchLimo]

This lady is the best. She deserves the desk.

[@whiskyjames4200]

YES!!! I'm in love...

[@WanderingExistence]

Eh, she's okay. 90% of her pieces are just about _"Men"._ Kinda unimaginative.

[@larryc1616]

Desi or Klepper

[@LokiBeckonswow]

she's funny af, really want more of these kind of vids from her, nice

[@MadDragon75]

Desi Rocks!

[@hughjaass3787]

I am a rarity in Florida. 100% Native Floridian, & Native American, Creek. 54yrs. 4th Generation Floridian. 99% of people here, BROUGHT THIS CRAZY BS WITH THEM HERE.

[@brianr6651]

Florida attracts crazy

[@whalesong999]

Yup, they were trying to escape their crazy and brought it with 'em. So, next, what's with California?

[@stephenhassler4596]

I think they were attracted to a place where their crazy would not be restricted in any way…

[@invisibleme5]

As a Florida Woman, I support this message! 😂😂😂 Well done, Desi!

[@denisegallo9317]

I came here to say the same thing 🌞 🐊 👋🏻

[@acatwithautism7705]

"To become a Florida Man, you must first be a Florida Boy."

[@brokenglassshimmerlikestar3407]

And that pirate hails from Chicago lol

[@ecurewitz]

Florida Boy is from Chicago

[@floridaboy7075]

Yeahh

[@jamess1314]

It's interesting that the sunshine act no longer covers DeSantis documents to be publicly available. What is he hiding? Travel records, funding for his national campaign, what else?

[@jmpstrnl2007]

Notional, or nominal? 😂 Either way, national is a joke at this point. And yeah, let’s see records

[@spacelemur7955]

Trips on the Appalachian Trail?

[@todd8155]

@jamess1314 - Sarah Huckabee recently tried to pass a law that would of made the lectern gate records inaccessible. Probably DeSantis has similar motivations. Exactly what are you hiding me DeSantis? Maybe you were telling us something when you you wore those white stipper boots? Or maybe that's just what a typical wannabe fascist would wear?

[@jdj830]

Seven flawless minutes. This should win an Emmy.

[@andrewcook4836]

Don't let daily show go down it's a light to dark thinking that still brings light and laughter

[@LisaLisa001]

Desi, you bring out the biggest smile on my face, almost distracts from my forehead. And I appreciate you for that.

[@colelarsen-cj-8952]

"Future Pulitzer Winning Journalist" is so awesome😂

[@ericminch]

One of the best Desi and best Daily Show skits!

[@historychannel365]

One of the top Desi and Daily Show sketches ever!

[@LBlucher13]

Carl Hiaasen has made a nice career taking true stories from Florida newspapers and turning them into best-selling novels. Certainly no shortage of material.

[@armusc757]

Absolutely love the fact she runs from these guys. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣

[@russh6414]

Desi does a lot of in-depth investigation in to the stories I hear every Friday on The Mark Thompson Show on KZbin. It seems like Mark NEVER runs out of material, EVER!

[@Dangic23]

I moved to Florida in Jul 2022. Escaped Florida Aug 2023. I was in the Panhandle,that region is beyond weird.

[@ClipperDays]

Desi you actually did work it out. I'm actually 1/2 Florida man. Having lived here for 1/2 my life. That means I'm only 1/2 batshit crazy and only,1/2 alcoholic. But I guess I'm still working on it.

[@hereigoagain5050]

Desi is always brilliant! All Florida Men should wear Beavis and Butthead t-shirts, so normies can avoid them. :)

[@iamTW64]

I can confirm we definitely have Florida Men (and Florida Women) living among us here in the Midwest.

[@joanneweiss3864]

She IS a bleeping genius!!! Give her the desk!!! 🎉❤

[@DeeSims-f5y]

It was already done years ago

[@MooseMaunu]

Desi is a true treasure. How she kept a straight face when asking Mr. Wildman "what kind of dancing did you do with the alligator?" will haunt me for days. 😅

[@khicks72]

"There's a little Florida Man in all of us." Truer words have never been spoken.

[@whiskyjames4200]

Welcome back Desi, you're the love of my life.❤😊

[@ZigbertD]

Texas Man gives Florida Man a run for his money, but the major difference between them is that Texas Man is more likely to go on to be elected to the state legislature.

[@speicaldark]

Hahahaha! Well said.

[@Freddiebrockk]

​@@speicaldarkRonda Santos and Matt Gaetz beg to differ

[@davidguelette7036]

Ah,the "don't mess with Texas "brigade.

[@Joshua-dx7zn]

I've been to Florida a few times for vacation and it's definitely a place you avoid getting out of your car as much as possible. What an armpit of the country.

[@thejdgoodwin]

I was born and raised in Florida, but left in 1994. You are absolutely correct in your characterization of the state.

[@davepedersen2115]

"UGHHH Florida... it's like a sauna with gnats!" Rodney Dangerfield

[@TheJasonBorn]

This bit is one of the best.

[@sharplessguy]

Welcome back Desi. We've missed you.

[@kross6231]

I love Desi. She is amazing. This is not a criticism of her personally. Haven't yall posted this video like 4 times now? Its really annoying getting notifications for videos I've seem many times already. Step your game up Daily Show. You're better than this.

[@Ladybug211211]

Actors are currently on strike

[@casjean8904]

ever heard of a strike or two, going on?

“There’s a little Florida Man in all of us.” I’d drink a beer to that… but I don’t want to get up.

[@cautiouslycynical9786]

As a Florida man... from Eastern Europe, brother I share that sentiment.

[@AllenKnutson]

Priorities. The real solution is to train a gator to fetch your beers

[@the_glitter_is]

Mental Health Issues?! I died.

[@mrfearsmom8857]

Hands down the best piece ive seen in a while, congratulations desi

[@todd8155]

Desi nailed it. Florida man is everywhere. We just hear about the Floridian Florida man because of the Sunshine law!

[@7WordsWorth]

Desi, you cracked me up! How did you keep such a serious face when those guys were spinning their Florida Man philosophy??? 😂😂 The Why is also the crackpot education in Florida. Most of the locals living in trailers haven’t got more than a 3rd grade education. Ignorant people do ignorant things unfortunately. (The educated ones do it on a grand scale). 😂

[@jamessisk8380]

Desi as new host? Yes, please.

[@RocLobo358]

As a native ex Floridian, I remember the mystery of someone who left a shark in the middle of the street. People weren't concerned with the content of that statement they wanted that person for animal cruelty

[@Phil-s7w]

She's the funniest one on the show, I hope she gets her own show.

[@amandasage4368]

"Petri Dish of bats**t behavior" SENT me ☠️

[@mackb5026]

This is the best the daily show has put out in ages and that isn’t in any way a compliment

[@joealberti7762]

Ok. You must be a GUTfeld fan.

[@barnesguides]

Florida Man detected

[@goatladygletha792]

😂😂😂 Gotta love those sunshine laws! Every state should have them. 😊

[@Sonicbeat1986]

Beavis and Butthead shirt!! It could replace a lot of social tests.

[@pidginmac]

“Well I’m different from the rest…” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@jimbrunsman1011]

Desi's reactions are hilarious!

[@NoSenatorson]

If only we could change the song “Rocket Man” to “Florida Man.”

[@spencertwoeightyz3383]

I liked this the first time you uploaded it.

[@bretfisher7286]

It's a simple thing that accounts for Florida Man. We might try much psychology or political rudiments, but it's nothing complicated. It's the humidity! 😂

[@starship16l]

i love desi she is the best

[@TheWorld_2099]

Can Desi Lydic please be the next host of the daily show? She had me crying with her comedy genius… 😅

[@iamin03]

Love & respect from Bangladesh.....Desi Lydic is awesome!!!!

[@TupEllen]

❤❤❤great take!❤❤

[@AnthonyMorris-pg9xj]

The little alligator at the end was a nice touch 😉

[@Pkilla80]

All the crazy people in my family moved to Florida. No state taxes has a lot to do with it. Irresponsible people that didnt plan well for retirement have to move there so they can afford to not work.

[@michaelsantarlas17]

Need to make a boy band called Florida Men

[@robadair]

Well done, Desi!

[@craigstiver6690]

Florida man here, transplanted from PA. I think the heat is a major problem here. It quite literally fries people's brains...

[@GenaTrius]

I was born to a Florida man and a Florida woman, raised as a Florida boy, and was a Florida girl until they ran me out of the place last year. Now I'm a Seattle woman.

[@justaguy995]

That warm weather attracts a lot of people with mental health problems

[@catrantery]

There's a little Florida Man in all of us. Truer words, eh?

[@RyanEglitis]

Some OLD old-school daily show reporting

[@LokiBeckonswow]

fugmi this is incredibly hilarious, pls give more of this

[@s7umpf]

1 week of holidays woke a small piece of „florida man“ in me. Gotta love it. Greetings from the old world.

Fantastic Desi!! Another winner.

“She gone” 😂

[@arupmaity937]

Desi lydic is just legend

[@drekelley2352]

Tried to start a fire with spaghetti 😂😂. I looked it up and it's way worse than I could even imagine. It kind of made a little sense until they said he was wearing a bull costume. That part made no sense.

[@Raven-ug8uw]

This is great!

[@floridaboy7075]

For the record, you would never catch me dancing with a Gator, unless it was some Florida Gator Cheerleaders.

[@richardjoyce1]

Carl Hiaasen would be proud.

[@lindaward3156]

I liked this Desi bit a real lot - the 1st time I saw it some time ago! I hoped it was a second installment kind of thing.

[@fan.80s_90s]

In the words of Robert California from The Office, "Florida is America's basement. It's wet, it's filled with mold, the strange insects... alligators... alligators are dinosaurs, Dwight! You knew that right?

[@MahiAviation]

When the dude said he was from Marathon, I just about lost it.

[@caliracer1]

Thank you for the laugh!

[@johncoreyfarrell]

Awesome!!

[@agingmillennialmainer]

Alligator Man must be a fan of The Cramps. Cunkqesque. Nicely done.

[@kevinbwillson4161]

[@milesnapue]

Simply epic.

[@mitchell9110]

I'm from the (relatively) sane state of New Jersey. I once spent three days in Florida. I could feel my brain cells rotting away. Will never return.

[@kateb1377]

This nerd knew a lot about Florida

[@gearheadgregwi]

Wisconsin man says OPE!! (It's the winters)

[@nopenope9118]

As a native Wisconsinite who watches a lot of Code Blue Cam, I feel like I understand the Florida Man much better these days. Wisconsin is very open with their body cam footage, similar to the Sunshine Law in Florida.

[@aBronwynr]

Desi should look/listen to WGN Morning News, 6-10am. Larry Potash, Anchor, has issues with Florida.

[@rocketdude2969]

What did the sun do for a man to try and shoot him .....flash him maybe 😂

[@brynne610]

So many crime shows coming out of the state!

[@micravinxenos3047]

There should really be a study on what's going on out there. Sure there's the obvious roots of the problem but I'd like to see how it leads/contributes to this behavior. The different patterns and situations.

[@johnmcwatters480]

Please Desi, Come and find the TX. Man I hear about his new high jinx's every day on KVUE news but they never show a picture.We need your help.😮

[@denisestinnett4414]

Why can’t Desi head up the daily show? 🤙

[@Teeveepicksures]

Alligator Man needs a show

[@justinjauernig8675]

It's because if it's part of an investigation they can't disclose it on the internet. but in Florida the law was passed so we can hear about everything that happens in Florida

[@hectorcapote5887]

I’m from Miami and we are another country!!

[@Drew-bc7zj]

The real mystery is: WHY HASN'T THE DAILY SHOW COME BACK YET?!? It's been 2 weeks!!!

[@TravisRichey]

This short film should make the festival circuit. I bet it could get picked up and made into a tv show or something. Very well done 👍 ~Trav

[@maggiefranks6849]
