[@ZEROAAHENIX]

oof, imagine claiming its ok to be abusive to your partner simply because you have ADHD. ADHD doesnt take away control of how you act. you still actively CHOOSE what you do like every other human being with and without ADHD. its a scientific fact that ADHD DOES NOT take away your free will. the fact that his wife goes out of the way to do things that she knows will hurt him then make excuses about having adhd is abuse and you shouldnt be supporting that.

[@captainkellykat5378]

[@ZEROAAHENIX]

@@captainkellykat5378 idk whether it was part of the special on ADHD that he talked about it specifically but he publicly talked about how his wife was doing some abusive stuff while at the same time claiming what she was doing WASNT abusive simple because she has ADHD and I'm not mad or upset at the guy for coping with it his own way but he's spreading the wrong message with it sadly. We need more awareness on how ADHD works so people with it can get actual help figuring out how to act and why instead of being told they should act however and simply blame the ADHD

But I believe that Stella is under the Rainbow 🌈 Bridge, playing with our Chief and many, many other furry darlings. They’re all playing there, passing the time, waiting for us to arrive and when we get there they will run up to us and we will cross the bridge together, never to be parted again. And you know what? I’m convinced that our Chief will look after her as a real gentleman until you guys arrive. I know that the grief and the pain never go away but still I hope that I could offer you some comfort or support. I wish you both well and please keep up the good work.

[@zacharys8090]

Stella was an awesome dog. A rare one. That kind of grief sticks to you. We had to put my dog Sadie down a couple of years ago after she had trouble eating and then we found out she had liver cancer. I held her as she was put down. Our normal vet wasn't open, but they referred me to another vet down the street from the place I worked then. They gave us our own room, and said I could stay and play with Sadie as long as I needed, and to call them when I was ready to say goodbye. It was surreal. I had gone through losing a pet when I was young, but never in the position of making the decision and being there for it. Said was given to me by a mutual friend who was a nurse and had to work 15+ hour days and didn't want to leave her alone. He drove her 9 hours to drop her off to us and gave her to us for free. We had just gotten engaged, my wife and I, and lied to our apartment when we signed our lease, that we already had a dog, knowing we wanted one. Sadie was a rescue, my mutual friend found her on the side of the road in Ohio, and he nursed her back to health and trained her. Sadie loved my kids and my wife, and was the sweetest and best dog ever. Potty trained, didn't chew anything, didn't shed. Was the easiest dog ever. She passed away before we got to move out to the country, and I so wanted her to grow old on our front porch and die from old age, but she didn't get that. I have friends who mourned her death with us. They have pictures of Sadie in picture frames in their house, it's almost ridiculous, but it's not. She was special like your Stella.

Who knows. Maybe she was trying (poorly) to be funny, maybe had a back n forth already played out in her head where they both laugh about it and there’s comedic genius the springs forth from the interaction, and then as soon as she actually said it, and heard herself say it out loud and the reaction, realized after the fact that it was a bad idea. Or, probably spent the whole night thinking “how can I get his attention as a heckler then say “hey we went to school together”” then realized the show was ending and just blurted that out without thinking then instantly regretted it. Her responses after were reminiscent of someone who just said something dumb, realized it, then spends the next 5 minutes clumsily fumbling over her own thoughts and words ever increasingly with each statement as embarrassment increased, and awkward tensions increased, and her brainpower continued decreasing as she just made it worse with every reply.

I still think of Stella. We loved watching her. She was a sweetheart. Thanks for sharing her with us Drew. I mean that. My hubby and I fell in love with a dog we only knew through videos. Our hearts broke for you and many tears were shed from random strangers on her behalf. Empathy is bittersweet and we too have had to say goodbye to our favorite four-legged friend just a few months ago. I’m sure our Momo is up there running around with Stella right now I appreciate your, authenticity and being open and vulnerable and emotional about it. We need more of that. We need people who are real and share hard things and show that things, but we are strong and we can support each other from distance even through something like a KZbin video. FYI - my husband and I have been watching since the first moment you stepped on that stage with America’s got talent, and we are still fans. We haven’t had the chance to see you live yet, but that’s definitely on our list. We’re super proud of you! 🥳🥳🥳

Sorry to hear Stella had to go through that man. A dog is more than just a man’s best friend, they’re family. God bless you and your wife

[@DragonKitti]

So very sorry to hear about Stella. I hope you find some comfort in knowing you did everything possible for her.

[@Okahoema]

Having found you during the pandemic and seeing how far you’ve made it with your success and recovery is absolutely amazing much love 🦅

wow what a sad woman that would wish your wife leaves you. probably has a horrible life

[@_raven.rae_]

I hope her girlfriend leaves her

[@BlindZubat]

That whole interaction made it sound like she was bitter about Drew some how. Either that or she is just a really freaking mean person. Seriously, if Drew came up with a joke about his wife and she didnt like the joke. I feel like Drew would trash the joke in an instant.

[@mcclemons89]

She hopes she leaves you so she can have you. Got scared and didn't wanna say it.

[@PotatoePC]

was thinking that too! Somewhere I don't think she meant anything bad. Just tried to include herself in the most awkward way. She said she knew him and was proud of him. I think that was the "real" reason she did so.

[@vixxcelacea2778]

@@PotatoePC It's still fascinating how some people have no filter though. Maybe I'm just socially anxious and a bit awkward, but I could never think of shouting something like that out. Even if it was more of a "Marry me instead" sorta thing, which for the record, not cool either, but at least a little less antagonistic in it's intent.

Losing a loved one is difficult, especially a cute little stinker. I’m glad you’re able to talk about her

[@ObserverExperiencer]

I absolutely LOVE your morning rant walks about your wife! The elaborate word play is akin to George Carlin and Stephen Colbert's Meanwhile! You put together works of art in verbal form and those of us with a sense of humor totally appreciate it and understand it's just comedy! It amazes me how there are people who go to a comedy show and don't get it!

[@cfreeman89]

Drew, you are one of my most favourite comedians, for so many reasons. You have had to overcome so much in your life, and yet you remain humble, working never to engage people from a place or aggression or spite. Your jokes and your comedic talents are some of the very best and funniest in the world, and I always look forward to seeing your content pop up. Sending some love your way 😃🫂

[@victorias.f.]

I'm sorry about Stella =( she was a great dog. I'm sure you guys did everything you could to give her a happy and healthy life, and I pray you can find comfort in the good memories you created with her. She'll live on in your hearts, and on ours. Rest in peace Stella

[@wtbanyname]

I haven't seen a video from you in a whole. Your stutter is basically gone... that is so good to see, man! Congratulations on your recovery!

[@art.by.kap.official]

You handle those situations incredibly well every time!🤩👏 11:00

[@IssaBDot]

Drew, I feel your pain about Stella brotha. We had to do the same for our dog tug, and we went on vacation and had to watch him get put down also over FaceTime 🤦‍♂️ it was hard and hearing it in your voice about Stella broke my heart 🤦‍♂️ your one of my favorite comedians, thanks for all the laughs and smiles man 💯

[@masterjunko]

Was the heckler the same lady that asked about Stella? First of all, I'm rrally sorry you had to get hit with that stuff during your show, but if that was the same person... It really makes the Stella question feel like less of a accident that means well and more like she was purposely trying to throw off your show.

[@_raven.rae_]

Right? Who the hell says something like that?

[@keelan2559]

It doesn’t sound like the same person to me. Could have been the girlfriend maybe but I don’t think the one who said Drew’s wife should leave him was the same one who asked about Stella.

[@masterjunko]

@@keelan2559 I sure hope not

[@brandontylerburt]

Well spoken, sir! Just perfect. Edit: I hadn't watched the whole video. You're a good doggie Dad. You obviously did everything you could to make Stella well and comfortable as the inevitable approached. I admire you so much.

[@sallyj632]

I was at your show in New Jersey when you announced the passing of Stella, less than a week after it happened. Even if I hadn't of heard it on stage from you, I'd have still known because I follow your social media. People need to do research before they speak about a pet they haven't seen in 2 years.

[@BrownEyedBeauty2008]

Oh my God. Drew, I am so sorry. I had no idea. I watch your videos here and there but I had no idea she passed. What a traumatic thing for you guys to go through. She was so beautiful and she loved you so much. You gave her such a wonderful life. Rest in peace, sweet girl 💕

[@CraiiZeD]

At least you got to be with her, in a way, my vet wouldn’t let me be with my pet when they put her down, UNLESS, I paid a “therapy fee” for the veterinarian, as they claimed my presence in the room would be upsetting for the vet. Unfortunately, I did not have the money, I was just a young teenager. RIP Stella ❤

[@nicolecodbrajoe5229]

Upsetting for the vet? Wtf? Because it's not upsetting for you? Not only kidding your pet but to not be able to comfort your furry family member and say goodbye. I'm so sorry that happened to you. 🫂

[@The_One_Over_There]

Wait.. WTF?? I had to put my dog down in December of 2022, My vet asked if i wanted to stay or not, and even recommended that i should stay. Which didn't cost me anything. I only payed for the meds. I already had in mind that i most definitely wanted to stay with her until she was fully gone, because 1: Even the thought of not being there for her in that moment just felt unfair. And 2: Even before i had to put my dog down, i heard that most vets say that they rather have the owners of the pets there with them, because seeing the reactions of the pets when the owner leaves, which usually leads to more fear and such, generally feels shitty for the vets themselves too. It's extra sad for both the pet, and the vet. That being said. I'd never, ever, trust that particular vet, ever again. If i were you.

[@matthewsharpe393]

It's crazy how vulnerable you are. I know I've heard that a lot of comedy comes from pain, but it's hard to picture. You talking about your dog is surreal. You didn't seem affected at all in the comedy set, but you talking about it, you can feel the pain there. It shows how good you are at comedy.

[@TheRealVeigar]

Last I checked one makes $5k per 1mil views. If still accurate, the fact you make money ($10k as of 10:13 8/27) off people trying to ruin your show is great. I don’t remember the taxes but I know they hit that $5k in the long run

[@chicanasc4201]

You are a sweetheart. None of your wife jokes come off as malicious. The fact that you run them by her and worry about her integrity speaks to your character. Not all male comedians care enough to be that considerate. I also find your jokes about her relatable. If we can’t laugh at ourselves, this world would seem too bleak at times.

I had kinda figured. It's been years since we had a Stella video, and most dogs get about 10 to 12 good years. I just didn't know it was so traumatic.

[@intellectualeigh]

I hope you stay with your wife too because she's the whole reason I even know who you are. Your ADHD special made me a fan and subscriber because my eldest son is ADHD since he was a child. I thought your take was really spot on and these bits truly help ppl struggling with disorders to be able to laugh off the bad times and cope to remember them more fondly as the good times. So thanks for both of you helping the rest of us deal with our own issues with a sense of humor instead of despair and stress all the time. 😊🙏❤️‍🔥🎯💯
