Man I've already heard these jokes and I still rewatched and laughed my ass off because that's how funny Josh is, I can't wait for him to get big one day because he and Jaboukie Young-White have been my favs for a while and Jaboukie got on the Daily Show so Josh should at the very least get a Netflix special with front page promotion.

“I’m Josh Johnson and I’m originally from Louisiana. Growing up in Louisiana was like being in a bathtub and you can’t get out...and it’s racist.”

The first minute of this, when he was describing what growing up in Louisiana was like, had me cackling. The bathtub description?! HILARIOUS

[@joncoda365]

I'm in Louisiana right now, I'm a black new yorker (BORN IN BROOKLYN) in Louisiana temporarily (I hope) for work, his description is pretty on point. Like being stuck in a bathtub of dirty water, that's racist... This place also has annual biblical plagues of pollen blooms and various insects and I think the moon turned to blood once. Well, not the moon part.
