Jake's New Career

Taken from this week's / ja bonus Thursday If I Were You...

[@char124eve]

This is literally an “insecure Jake” J&A episode

[@nikimilky]

TBH jake is an stright up 'amir' in this one.

[@seamoose141]

MY FAVORITE VIDEOS ON EARTH

[@Jessedoespoo]

No its not

[@dreamlightly]

The beat of this video is almost exactly like a jake and amir sketch

[@abramfriesen9472]

I love how it has that beat, but still feels utterly organic, like they just *have* that beat.

[@lukabell4607]

Abram Friesen it is organic, it was just a bit on their podcast

[@Dareokin]

Yeah i could just see jake with a guitar talking about this in a skit

[@markcampos2735]

Except switched

[@zestyzucchini57]

The beautiful part is it's just completely natural, just two dudes talking on their podcast.

[@eugeneh42]

"No you're not, you're smiling"

[@felynecomrade]

Damn. Jake And Amir episodes just... happen when these two speak to each other. It just naturally occurs. Like when a hot air current meets a cold air current, a tornado forms. Like that, but with spoken conversations of bizarre humour.

[@ejoshcoron]

Comedy's only good if you're a tornado about it

[@incog.nyto.]

@@ejoshcoron Speak normal.

[@Business_Skeleton]

@@incog.nyto. hey man all he wanted was us to smile of him. No need to turn this into some sort of nuclear bomb of me

[@incog.nyto.]

@@Business_Skeleton You know what? Talk normal. Okay? "Nuclear bomb of me"? "Smile of you"? You're digressing! You used to be able to speak English.

[@samcavanagh7993]

@@incog.nyto. I've never had a normal conversation in my life! OH

[@hellomarjory]

"sorry to hear that 😀😀😀"

[@v.duskren8819]

"I'll do photography... I'll be like, moody about it."

[@ejoshcoron]

These guys just improvised a whole hilarious J & A video on the spot. You are both truly the Master

[@paul_warner]

Amir is a philosopher and Jake is a cool, uplike them to algorithm heaven

[@CanadianFighter2k]

Picture this: Head of a frog, body of a deer, he's golfing by himself under the ocean. The floor is fire.

[@gabrflyan6364]

I guess thats never been done. CAN YOU DRAW IT???

[@AddBowIfGirl]

CanadianFighter2k I laughed a little too hard at this on a train full of, what I can only assume are, coronavirus carriers.

[@natureboy904]

@@AddBowIfGirl If anything YOU have the corona virus, you've been coughing a lot and complaining about your fever all day.

[@AddBowIfGirl]

natureboy nineofour I don’t deserve this silent treatment.

[@jonnypayne598]

Why are you describing Amir‽

[@Camtrain1989]

"Yeah I caused it!" so righteously indignant about a bad thing he did 😂 fkn love these clowns

[@Smissassin1]

This was one of the funniest things I've seen in a while. I'm an old fan of J&A but I'm happy to see you guys are still making content. I hope you guys continue to grow

[@thesponge836]

There's a lot they can do with their brand of humour, it's still pretty unique.

[@stephenholt6956]

"I don't know how to sing is all" fucking killed me

[@O-pinyin]

Jake and Amir have their own manner of speaking that elevates their comedy to insane levels.

[@TarnishedProductions]

1 year later, "I'ma eating yogurt today" won 13 Grammy awards and an Oscar if you can believe it.

[@creepycassette]

I cant believe it

[@TarnishedProductions]

@@creepycassette Well, the facts have changed since I posted that comment. It's now got 73 Grammies, 2 Oscars, a Nobel Peace Prize and a Standing O'.

[@creepycassette]

@@TarnishedProductions and jakey got a handy and a blow because he finally got recognition for doing a town.

[@Ollig999]

Honestly the best thing about their bits and their style of comedy is that you can easily do similar stuff just hanging out with your friends

[@blarger4dawin]

Ollig999 there’s nothing better than throwing out a JandA reference and someone picks it up and keeps it going w it

[@Hbizzjohnson]

@@blarger4dawin hella lucky all the friends I come across just look at me weird why I try to start a bit lol no one ever goes along with it >.>

[@creepycassette]

I lost friends quoting these two coy divas. Comedy of errors? Nah, dramady of TERRORS

[@samlibutti]

“I could do like an artist” great point Jake.

[@Winteramen]

"This guy helped do a town?"

[@zero705]

0:43 or was Father John Misty and Drake NOT styling?!

[@chrisoliver8979]

I just love Jake's face. He is so adorable

[@Varooooooom]

Both of them have been aging incredibly gracefully

[@hellomarjory]

I did A TOWN

[@pb0o6]

This is the prequel to "Learning guitar to get laid" video Jake made like 10 years ago

[@ShaiqShaq]

Priyal Seebadri OG

[@danielstacey200]

I 100% believed his want to change, until "I can't sing is all" ha ha genius

[@maxgolden2601]

I hope he's got his platinum white dress shoes for that gala

[@AnaLongoriaXX]

Gala? I’ve never seen anyone invite him to lunch

[@LazarusIsBackBaby]

Amir Shmumu's quadruple-platinum single "I'm, uh, eating yogurt today" took the world by storm. Shortly thereafter, an ashamed and dejected Jake Hurwitz frickin moved.

[@YatuXu]

No! -One Take Jake

[@superstarXgirls3]

"my life flashed before my eyes and all i saw was a bunch of fucking UCB shows" is just. unbelievably hilarious

[@sjmmahoney]

The way Jake is sitting just so perfectly matches this. You guys are the greatest, always

[@henrygoodyear2029]

“Their dumb ass life stories” cracks me up. And “do a town “

[@dominicedwards-wilds4333]

Still one of my favourite Jake and Amir interactions of all time is: Amir - “My grandparents all passed” Jake - “Im sorry to hear that” Amir - “No you’re not, you’re smiling” 😂😂

[@spooky-nr4pl]

Going from comedy to sexy music? Literally Joji

[@retsuza]

Donald Glover also

[@coreyperdue1966]

@@retsuza I would not call his music "sexy"

[@robertwallace5498]

so spot on about taking a detailed black and white photo of an old person, blowing it up and including a little story lol. I see it all the time and I cant understand why people think it is interesting or cool at all

[@justinz9225]

I love when they riff. This should be the show. It's like a cut-down version of Middleditch and Schwartz.

[@Winteramen]

“He did a town” - Jake *Jwitz* Hurwitz on Amir Valerie Blumenfeld's grandfather whom build towns in Israel before it even became a country.

[@thesnagglewolf]

Cocky far too confident for his own good Jake is the best Jake

[@theeverchosen1504]

He wants to do a Joji basically

[@ryanhealy9026]

Amir should be thrilled at the thought of Jake having gala for his photography/album. Then he’d have a reason to where his Platinum white dress shoes.

[@70sman]

He'd be humiliated and barefoot since he deleted the whole cart

[@imcoty]

really glad this showed up in my recommended. this was the amazing reunion with jake and amir that i needed. fantastic vid

[@CameronSlaysTBE]

Absolute comedy GODS. I’d kiss the dirt that Jake and Amir walk on

[@jfs0747]

That would be unhygienic

[@NYCybertruck]

I would blow it

[@sillychinas]

Go to his gala opening

[@davidallen5257]

I dunno man I think I would prefer to fuck some dirt they were just kind of near. Or not near at all. I kinda just wanna fuck some dirt now

[@Davidgandara10996]

I will legit go dickless for Michael Chickless for them

[@zahrahkhalid6333]

I like how it seems believable at first then devolves into insanity

[@x_sheenah]

Lol, I definitely feel like this lightweight a "Jake & Amir" where Jake plays Amir.

[@SeraphsWitness]

6 straight minutes of solid in-character riffing

[@Born2beSPRA]

Jake saying “I’m sorry to hear that” reminds me of insecure Jake on the tinder video

[@BillThrash]

I assume you cause? "Yeah I caused it" You were tweeting while driving? ---- somehow this exchange is CLASSIC!

[@HandsUp12100]

Jake should scan Amir's family photos for three days straight.

[@ninjamuffin289]

of only the family members which did towns though

[@izzyGO52]

Damn now i wanna relisten to that ep but dunno which one it is 😂

Yay!!! Amir is wearing his cool glasses again 😃

[@Magnus3144]

I love the fact that Jake not knowing Emily Ratajkowski's name but vaguely knowing of her fame came back in Jake and Amir overalls

BRO HAVENT SEEN THESE 2 IN LIKE 10 YEARS. JAKE & AMIR if ur reading this thank you for all the real comedy you did it used to be so nice watching comedy videos without a live studio audience telling me when to laugh 2 true pioneers that made me happy during days that werent so @ifiwereyoushow

[@joshuabalcombe4975]

Bruh. They have classic videos on this channel. Your wish is granted.

[@xzzx21]

This is a real Jake and Amir episode

[@roughryder5]

These guys are comedy geniuses

[@trappunk5659]

Plz do more of this!

[@burnyourhabitat]

Best Jake and amir episode in my opinion.

[@alanfresco666]

This is amazing 😂

[@OnlyTheBestx]

Amir might finally get invited to a gala!

[@AhmedMahmoud-sq7xg]

Miss u guy's

[@shannonschool]

Such a good bit

[@AxelBreeze]

When Amir's goes from 30 to 60 and Jake drinks from the fountain of youth

[@SimpleChineseYoutube]

This is by far my favorite video of yours

[@BenjaminBizarre]

Last time I was this early, jake and amir were still on college humor.

Is this not joji

[@jooshm]

Love it. Always seems funnier just listening to the audio though imo. I just realised the faces I imagine them pulling make it much more hilarious than the actual ones.

[@MasterKurisu]

That was hilarious!

IM CRYING

[@Bisquick]

With that attitude and a pair of platinum white dress shoes you might even get a plus one to the gala

[@zestyzucchini57]

the comments on these videos always kind of make me chuckle because no matter what they do people are always like "something something jake and amir episode" or whatever, which is either really awesome or might be like "we founded a company guys". i think it's really funny how they did jake and amir so much that it bleeds into everything they do though. listening to the pod they slip in and out of character so much, and also i love how jake said that everything they do in their personal life creates silly little bits. they're so cool

[@yousaid4026]

Like an old married couple

[@TheRandomBiscuit]

Father John Misty does comedy, but only if it's Pure Comedy.

[@erikpro3860]

this explains how they came up with jake and amir, its just reality but to the max lmao

did Amir get LASIK and then keep wearing glasses for style?
