Wow this is a crazy collaboration I didn't see coming, two of my favourite asian comedian!

[@oli.y]

Great chemistry!

Two of my favourite comedians full stop

weird comment. I'd never say those are my two favorite WHITE comedians. drop the asian, bud

[@musemellow]

It's the first time Nigel doesn't roast his podcast guest 🤣🤣 he must have a lot of respect to Jimmy.

[@KatakBawang]

😂😂😂😂 Oyang is a more experienced stand up than roger..... roger probably need his insights and advice and connections in the US when he eventually move to US.... that’s probably why....

[@em0_tion]

@@KatakBawang Probably true. But also, it's easy to relax and "just be" around another comic, you can just open up and focus on the conversation and forget trying to impress somebody or make them laugh. :) I duuno, just guessing.

[@KatakBawang]

@@em0_tion yep... this session was so relaxing and smooth and organic... it just flowed effortlessly.... like two friends having a good chat... the only things missing are beer and chips...

[@AimeeCVaj]

Yes. It seems mutual!

[@valiaudet3415]

This makes me feel I'm sitting on the couch off camera. Hey when you find love and the people are open and honest thats what counts.

Nigel: "I was a data scientist" Jimmy: "Wow, you ARE Asian"

As a matter of fact, all the White people look similar to me when I first got to the US. When I bumped into somebody in the hallway in the university, I would smile at that person because I was not sure if I met person or not, because they all looked similar to me!@@markkao9954

[@rsp8999]

Is that a rice cooker way back in the background?

[@evangelionl0vr857]

Jian Yang was such an incredible character. Jimmy is being too modest, the reason that Jian Yang got more scenes is because he was a fan favorite. He was personally my favorite character in that show. He made me laugh more than any other character on the show.

[@Esock114]

That visible confusion, double take by Jimmy at 56:18 was golden.🤣👌

[@Ehdidnxkd]

bloody love this podcast. they are actually having a respectful two-way conversation, wanting to know each other's process and journey.

[@LadyRosaleee]

I'm in agreement with Jimmy, you literally ARE building an empire. May not be complete yet, but it's rapidly growing, I can only imagine where & what you'll be doing in 2 years. Incredible and admirable to see your hard work & sacrafice pay off! 👏🏾 ~fuiyoooh

[@sayurik]

I think Nigel should do a skit/episode/podcast with Ali Wong. I think they’ll be hilarious together. Since they’re both divorced they can do something that shits on married people or about being Asian divorcées

[@WobblyWallaby]

Was not expecting my house's paint to be put on BLAST. RIP Dulux. Another fantastic interview Nigel, I'm glad you're having these interviews with well known Asian actors and comedians.

[@JoMHo-ty4tp]

🤣🤣🤣

[@onglenghin]

I really enjoyed the content of this podcast. Keep doing this Nigel. Uncle Roger may expire, this podcast will go very far, this is very educational.

[@DeliahAyala.2.14.91.]

Uncle Roger will never expire. Uncle Roger like MSG

[@BolinFoto]

The thing with money is that the more you have the more you worry. I remember an interview with the founder of IKEA he said "- When the first million came in, I felt "oh my god now I'm really independent". It was a fantastic experience. But as the first million eventually grew to 100 million, more worries began to accumulate. - There was nothing that made me more independent anymore, but rather more dependent. You start thinking about whether you live in the right place and have to pay everything in taxes and so on..."

[@riccooper5689]

I loved learning the personal side of both of you. I appreciate your work even more because of it.

[@1point689]

Really enjoy this kind of true dialog, no bs. Keep up the great work both you!

[@peperiday]

Love this collaboration. Thank you for the insightful episode.

[@celestial_love]

Former Chinese-Malaysian here, currently in the Bay Area, and I felt youthful until I heard you both lament about your ages! ☺️ I appreciate your comedic contributions to lighten our hearts❣️Thanks for this raw discussion 😂

4:35 Nigel doing the chinese hand motion for 6!

[@KRYoung_dev]

Love, love, LOVE this!!!! You two seem like immediate friends.

I listen to multiple podcasts every day while working and this is the best one I've come across in a long time! *Fuiyoooooo!*

[@Joeytrib1985]

Jimmy is excellent in Space Force. One of the shining lights!

[@coffeebreak100]

This is such an informative podcast, a peek behind the scenes on how the industry works. It’s so fascinating .

[@matikatak6570]

Uncle roger been offcharts with his collabs lately.... First we feast, asian boss, ryan long, stephen he, twosetviolin, auntie esther, joshua weeisman, jimmy oyang.....i am sure in future there is collabs with nick giovanni, reynold, vincenzo.....

[@jason_max]

always surprised by how the podcast is getting better every week. no pressure, Nigel! Kudos to you and Producer Matt!

[@miburiofficial1286]

Really great content from Jimmy O Yang and Nigel. Surprised about all the work that's put into their standup routines. I really liked Jimmy's "Good Deal" standup special, it was the perfect time(~1 hour) and the real great content/delivery it just made you feel like you're just taking a journey thru his life and having a good time and laugh with a friend. Nigel could definitely learn a thing or 2 from Jimmy for his standup but glad to see Uncle Roger and the podcast getting more popular!

[@katadareTube]

I love how parts of this is like the experienced imparting wisdom to the young. Great discussion!

[@TheKermitClein]

what a great talk, thank you Nigel !

[@feliix88]

I wonder if Nigel would ever do a podcast with Auntie Esther. that would be something I'd love to see!

[@p____p4tel]

Simply a great chat between two engaging fellas. Bravo chaps.

[@yuting386]

you always have such a great setting for the pod. great content!

[@zvicki2023]

How come it feels like Nigel inviting people to his podcast to interview him🤣

[@li_celly]

"90% of your pain comes from comparison". I HONESTLY had to remind myself that and after so many years of practicing that mindset, it really helps my mental health. I think when i was younger, I wanted to be "the BEST ART DIRECTOR/ANIMATOR" but when you keep beating yourself down from comparing to other artists, you just gotta calm the fuck down and focus on yourself. I still want to be a good art director, and now I'm on my way directing my own works for myself. And it feels great. I don't even compare towards anyone anymore. I just know what's good art and see that people would like it once you know what the audience want. Setting boundaries to yourself also helps, especially when it comes to social media.

[@jochong58]

This is such an awesome collab! Nigel and Jimmy are my favorite comedians. They are so modest, down to earth and respectful! Please consider going on a tour together?? Uncle Roger, I'll see you tomorrow in Seattle!

[@dkdexter02]

One of the best podcasts I heard in a while.

For the first time I chose Nigel’s podcast over than other videos on KZbin. The combination of you two are boom!

[@mitchellbrian2585]

Really been enjoying these podcast. Nigel you are just naturally hilarious in general.

[@knifeyonline]

Silicone Valley is such a great show... Jimmy made that show for so many people...

[@jeff__w]

That was surprisingly “real”-two comedians talking shop and then a lot of other stuff thrown in. Very engaging.

[@simonxx7189]

I liked the more serious atmosphere in this one even though I love your more "inapropreate" episodes. Keep it up!!

[@NanHuei]

Topics on this interview are so relatable... especially about parents sending their kids abroad, not to study or work at something frivolous

[@FizzyK-45]

First Steven and now Jimmy, Dang, Nigel's killing it with the podcast guests lately. 😁👌

This is great, love you two! ❤❤

[@jp.spasian]

Mr Nigel, jimmy brings out your humble wholesomeness. This was a better podcast than most. Would love to see more collaborations with Jimmy, Steven He, Two Set Violin and other aspiring artists. By the way, I can relate to the mixed Asian population…. Had no idea growing up where I belonged.

this is a long podcast... but I have listened to it twice.... I like listening to Nigel talk about his life experience and how he created the Uncle Roger persona.. Ok, I have heard it quite a few times now, but it doesnt get old. LOL.

[@cheayee]

I think the thing that resonated with me is being sent overseas by one's family, and how you'd have to choose a course of study that could pay the bills- and not something frivolous. It is expensive to go overseas to study, and not everyone has that privilege to move abroad to study.

[@christinasiew3707]

I hope you guys live somewhat close together! You guys have so much in common

Lmao, ur talking about the snack review thing you did. I just watched that earlier today and was like damn, the studio/channel really gave you nothing to work with like for real. You were reviewing the snacks and when there was a joke it was just silence after. But ironically I found the incoherency of it funny. Keep it up nigel and have a good day

[@plfoo2782]

My 2 fav comedians. Nigel, do a podcast with Henry Golding

[@Anil18834]

I completly agree with Yang's idea of "Severance". Also, after a long period of time has passed, i.e. 20 years, the city you remember, no longer exists. Streets have changed. Bridges have been built. 2 way streets are now only one way. The city has grown. Fields have been developed into malls... You become a person who fits in anywhere and is from nowhere. Only when you're with people who have lived the same experience, do you feel at home.

[@kiopop5294]
