How Uncle Roger Met Auntie Helen | HAIYAA #2

[@Matt-dc8lp]

I like how as Nigel gets into a story/rant his voice unintentionally gets closer and closer to Uncle Roger

[@uhhhlexusgiselle1211]

“I made this joke the other day, it’s a terrible joke… I’m gonna say it anyway.” Exactly why I listen lmao

[@tommynobaka]

you would like flagrant 2 if you already haven't heard of it

Finally uncle Roger is answering the question we always had

[@devinhendrix7209]

More Uncle Roger stories but keep the same amount of Nigel, it's nice getting to know the man behind the facade

[@cheeseboard3704]

Agree, it's nice to see more of Nigel outside of the character 🙂

Omg an Uncle Roger cartoon series would be cool. I love how there are cartoon clips of some of Gabriel Iglesias’ comedic stories called Fluffy Bits and I think the Uncle Roger stories would be even more amazing as cartoon episodes!

Call it "grains of our rice"....

10:52 That subject is wild, it teaches us how to be a tailor, electrician, plumber, farmer, chef and carpenter in literally one subject 😂

'How Uncle Roger Met Auntie Helen' Uncle Roger doesn't need a multi-season/series TV show, he can do it in one podcast! 'How I Met Your Mother' such a waste of time.... 😁

[@ab123rules]

But barnie

[@vehongaruhaka7756]

I'm glad Uncle Roger will be appearing more on this podcast, and please create the Uncle Roger cartoon/movie please 🙏🏿, can't wait for it, will surely be the best thing on Netflix

[@lionbill]

Hello Nigel . . . I really enjoyed this latest show. 😂Thanx for having Uncle Roger as your guest, I'm a very BIG fan & learned a few things too! Lots of luck with your new podcast!

[@rutnieteh7753]

One Utama is like my second home because work office building is right next door! And One U has literally everything! It's just a 5 mins walk from office to TGV Cinema for a 1.5 hours movie and then back in office within 2 hours haha!

[@Wittyx]

So glad we got to see Uncle Roger! Stay safe out there, Nigel! Can't wait for the next one!

[@2xwicemanwx2]

I'm just now realizing my favorite uncle Roger moments are when he is so funny, he makes himself laugh 🤣🤣🤣

[@mavis931]

Hi Nigel, you are my spirit of learning English, I really like the way you speak so comedy and humour! The topics you are always talking or discuss which can make us more understand about the western culture from the Asian perspective! Wish you all the best, believe in yourself because you have that talents! But please don't follow the steps of Li Hong Wang😂🤗

[@monique4540]

Your english is very good

[@chxrry_ii2945]

Love the podcast and Uncle Roger life stories!

[@GeckyWecky]

I am happy for the Uncle Roger lore. Excited to see more.

[@teojane4328]

Nigel pls stay safe n work hard as always . Can't wait next episode!!

[@andix3944]

Loving the Uncle Roger story time 🙌😍

[@rachaelbullmore48]

Hi Nigel, glad to see your podcast is coming along. I've been learning Mandarin on Duolingo for the last year and a half (just so I could binge watch Chenqingling and get more out of it) and I kinda feel bad as I missed yesterday's practice. BTW the crotch wearing out on jeans is not unique to men. It's more the inner thigh seams that wear for some of us women, and it's not about size - it happens if you walk lots as the friction wears out the cotton. I think the denim is less tough these days - feels softer but wears out so quickly.

[@NotYourMommasHistory]

Lol! “Fast, cheap, good, human rights…pick 3”.

[@Badriyaishere]

When it comes to birthday gifts my notes app is a lifesaver. Especially the Google one - I have people's names as headings and write down anything they mention underneath them so when it comes to present giving time it's a little easier

[@humppapomppa1186]

It was so bothering to remember that we had that same separation in craft lessons back in the primary school. (I'm from Finland.) Then we got the chance to "choose" for one semester, girls were pretty ok to choose woodwork (even though the teacher was a slimy perv) but all the guys who dared to choose sewing were immediately "gays" and it was back then just a slur. Don't miss those days.

[@alexerwin230]

I love this content. I’m listening on my AirPods in public laughing like a lunatic. I can relate to this story. Can’t wait for more content

[@francis-ip8ub]

Dark humor for the win🤣 the carpenter jokes is amazing.

[@PokhrajRoy.]

We are blessed to have this podcast! #AsianDisappointmentSupremacy

[@genesisrodriguez3579]

You’re hilarious! Already bought my tickets to see you in Chicago 👏🙌

[@keertanasmurthy4207]

Omggg I'm just soo excited by the news of uncle Roger comic series and animation movie and everything !!! 🤩🤩😍 Soo sooo incredible ideas Nigel. Keep going. Thanks

[@fouroverfour]

I am unclear: are Auntie Helen stories fictional? Or are they real and just being told through a fictional character? I always thought she was fake, but that life story sounded pretty genuine.

[@MsDecens]

Auntie Helen and her stories are as real as uncle Roger.

[@keithkunikida1222]

"Of course Uncle Roger is character, I am played by Daniel Day Lewis"

[@mcbedo6568]

I think Auntie Helen is real. Obviously she goes by a different name in real life just like how Uncle Roger's real name is not Roger lmao, but I think she's real. I mean you can't make stories like this up man. Technically you can, but his facial expressions say a lot.

[@gravity00x]

the name isnt real but his experiences with that woman definitely are. you cant fake heartbreak like that

[@filiphorvath8932]

He has stated he has an ex wife

[@oedentertainment]

To remember a gift secret, after you hear said thing that person wants, you pick a day when they aren't with you, and pick it up and hide it from them for six months, and then try to remember where you put it later 😂😂😂.

[@aishabraimah6893]

Nigel is so cute! Can't wait to see him in NY!

[@chockitkat3776]

It was actually funny, I absolutely love your sense of humour, I love it when you speak alone, and I love how you see the good in the bad. If someone were to make a joke where I have to rebuild my house and that makes me a good carpenter, I would actually laugh, because it's true! It's just so how ironic how the people being joked about are not as offended as those who are not even the one being joked about, like are people okay? Love your podcasts Uncle Roger!

[@oo7wazzy1]

Am literally in the garage woodworking while listening to this 😂

[@brendabrown8738]

I love u and u are very funny and entertaining when I start feeling down I watch your video and laugh so hard and feel better so thank you and keep up the great work

Omg when he asked how many carpenters you know I said “Jesus” and then he said Jesus and I laughed so much lmfao

[@dewisoemanegara]

I am especially very disappointed because Nigel Ng isn't coming to my country for a standup tour :( you'll come to Singapore and Malaysia, but you won't come to Indonesia, your neighbor! it's heartbreaking!

[@mayaanimay]

I needed this COVID talk🤣. Many of colleagues are coming positive and I am currently being made to stay away from the main lab and hospital areas to prevent contact and because I am only resident in my current area and was feeling really down. This made me feel better. Thanks Nigel.

[@carolmeeilinglee4282]

I'm a Malaysian, Nigel was right, the Indonesian workers just crushed at our new house for months and renovated for us

[@ThisIsFiftyWithLil]

1:20 AM TX Central Time... I'm back for a listen. And I'm making a paper chain out of old Christmas cards... because my tree is bare. So, this is a perfect pairing. Not a carpenter, but my husband is in homebuilding industry (not the actual building part) and his hobby is crafting items from wood - furniture, display pieces, etc. He actually won an award in woodworking in high school. LOL

[@ninjacat824]

Yes! More of Uncle please on podcast! 😂 Thank you 🧡

[@rev.paull.vasquez4001]

Gift giving is generally a function of how well you know someone. When ideas don’t just leap into my head, I wander a mall or browse and it brings to mind what they were really wanting or may be able to benefit from. Often, these ideas are not products actually being sold at those stores. Also, consider buying gifts far in advance, at the time that such personal interactions occur. Also, definitely more Uncle Roger!

[@papytofu3796]

Your show in Canada will happen exactly when my wife will arrive in Canada (same date, same period of the day) and we'll be reunited for the first time after 2 years of Covid. Still thinking about how I can pull that one off 😅

Nephew Nigel, I love this podcast so much it always makes me happy and laugh so much!! :D Uncle Roger I love that story about Auntie Helen :D Tysm for being such an amazing person!! :)

[@mikebraithwaite3288]

Freaking Awesome! Keep up the great work. Comedy needs to be funny. People need to understand that we need to laugh at ourselves.

[@soupp7168]

0:46 it feels so weird when uncle roger talks like Nigel Ng well in way he's in Nigel's character but still

[@darriendastar3941]

Rules on gift-giving: cheap, convenient, wanted. i) Only give something you can afford (and hopefully save money on); ii) Can you get hold of it easily? If you have to go to the furthest reaches of the Amazon rain forest to get a special wood carving for a person, you don't want that person in your life. They're more work than they're worth; iii) Do they want or need the gift? (This is the easiest of the rules. Just buy them something cheap and convenient and then invent a conversation you had eight months earlier when they said they needed it. They'll never remember - and if they do, pretend you confused them with someone more important/better looking/richer than them. Active flattery is better than wrapping paper when it comes to gifts.) Glad to see that in your quest to start WW3, you're beginning with the baby steps of pissing off your neighbours. You want an animated Uncle Roger series? What are you going to call it: "Mr SOY Bean"?

[@ShaneCM]

A tip: you don’t have to remember what people like if you go ahead and buy the item they liked or wanted early and just hold on to it until Christmas. Don’t beat yourself up about this gift giving most people are not good at this or listening to others for that matter.

[@tstale6019]

Just luvv "Uncle Roger Story Time" the best. Thanks for the Timelines...Useful for people like me who just zoom in & out during 10 mins Breaks....😂

Listenning to people is already hard enough but remembering is hard for my brain. Actually, birthdays are already harder enough to remember

Uncle Roger, you both had something else in common besides loving food. You both loved Auntie Helen. 😉

Love your podcast let uncle roger come in more often

[@professorbutters]

Amazon wish lists. That’s what they’re for. You don’t even have to buy the stuff on Amazon if you think they’re the evil empire. Before that, my family just told each other what we wanted and we got it. Where you run into trouble is when people make you guess, but if you guessed right and they find out, it spoils the surprise and now you have to get them another gift, which is why I don’t date that guy anymore . Also, cash always fits. You put it in a nice card or something, maybe some flowers, Merry Christmas. EDIT: my grandfather rocked gift giving. He started buying and hoarding gifts in July. So you just get it when they tell you or when you find something and you try to remember where you hid it.

[@RoxanneLavender]

I'm learning Hungarian on duolingo whilst watching your podcast. I learned how to say 'this is a dream' and a bunch of other confusing stuff, i learned enough Korean on duolingo to get the gist of most Korean conversations, i learned what i thought was a good amount of Swedish, i thought i could say a lot in Swedish, but all i can say is stuff like 'the child is eating the apple', or 'i like strawberries, but i love bread, i don't eat meat', but i can't understand anything Swedish people are saying.

[@PassionPno]

There are so many errors in their Korean course.

[@rleary]

Uncle Roger’s story sounds like one of those vignettes in “When Harry Met Sally” only longer.

[@whoam6680]

I live in hong kong, and I can agree with Nigel on the mall comment.

[@eshasaxena7593]

Evelyn is not objectively nicer, she IS nicer. That said, Uncle Roger is the best of the lot.

[@azizulfikri8392]

For me personally, memory is better retained when you attached emotions with it. I don't mean that you need to be an emotional person, it's more along the lines of how engage in that conversation for you to remember them

[@MKDumas1981]

Are Uncle Roger sad stories called... Veggie Tales?

[@sherrykloster7489]

I used algebra quite a bit as a friend & I renovated my current house a few years ago. We were both teaching full time so did it over the course of 2 summers. I did bits through the school year (tiling the kitchen, installing trim work) but mostly it was done in 4 months.

[@SallyCarly]

me and my friends usually ask and/or tell each other what we want just a few days before my/their birthday/Christmas so we can prepare it. HHahhaha so there's no need to "remember from a long time ago"

[@nicolecheong2228]

Renovation is the most troublesome thing I’ve ever experienced in life. Especially u r the only one who does all the coordination work. I feel u🥲but luckily u don’t hav any family member involving in there.

[@LadyPatienceK]

Thank you for a non-offensive/ non-religious hate "Jesus" joke. It wasn't nasty. I appreciate that. 😁👍🏻

[@zicadabra2721]

Is the fortune cat wearing Christmas hat at the back?! Gift giving- Nigel not listening to people but expecting people listening to him n make up a gift giving app 😆😆

[@shubhamkumardes]

In India people do the same. They go to the mall and that's Christmas or any western festival. Formality to go with the family in mall is Soul Crushing and buying gifts is more.

[@gaspi91]

buy them MSG. As for listening I'm sure no one cares but once I was on a trip with a friend and he told me in one store about a pefume he really wants. I took a picture and we bought it for his for birthday, he liked it. That was back then when I still cared for people, now I only care for uncle Roger...

[@thegrumpyfoodie]

Super easy... my ex after 11 years always told me what she wanted. I listened and remembered. I would get her the exact things because im like that... she was always disappointed because she had moved away from that and didnt want it anymore. Guys are like "yeah i wanted this for 5 years"

[@stinks7065]

Funny story about the bins actually, I have a friend whose neighbours STOLE their bins. It started off as their neighbours going through their bins but one night my friend looks out of his window and the old lady is just hobbling away with their bin. My friend records a video of it to send it to our group chat to prove that these people are tampering with their bins. When they went and asked them to return them, they acted like they didn't know anything about it even though the video clearly shows the lady taking the bin and walking to her house with it. So bin thieves are a very real problemin our communities

Boring older people -- they've lived through it all, Nigel. They've earned the right simply to kick back and be a tad boring. They've moved on to inner life and close personal relationships. Buying Christmas gifts is definitely a skill. Good gift giving is ofren about caring.♥️

[@Eddyspeeder]

That joke about how you get your covid news... spot on!

[@SGast]

Some people are better at remembering what people want, women especially mothers in general are better at this. However, there is the noteapp trick. Just write it down in your phone whenever they mention something they want and then pick something when you have to give a gift.
