Kevin Bridges Nights Out As A New Father A Whole Different Story Universal Comedy Reaction

[@keithmcclean4371]

His accent becomes broader when he's at a Scottish venue.

[@AlexFlanderzzz]

This was a stand up set I went to see. It’s filmed in Glasgow, Scotland and most of the audience is Scottish, so that’s why I think his accent gets stronger. Love all the videos guys it’s great to watch

[@AfterWorkReactions]

Ahh that makes sense . Because I understood what he said the last clip I watched him in he was much clearer. Thanks for watching bud

[@spacemonkey4811]

All of his stand up routines that CE from his own shows are all filmed in his hometown of Glasgow though. Sometime's some of the words are a bit stronger in terms of local dialect.

[@michaelfarrell4824]

@@AfterWorkReactions Yeah this is his home crowd, no Anglicization of his accent here, well actually he is holding back his natural accent ever so slightly here too, just not by much, this is basically the accent you'd hear between two random guys on a Glasgow street

[@smahier]

The "gibberish" bit was him reciting the names of crazy-sounding Scottish guys who will give the night a lift.

[@AfterWorkReactions]

Thanks bud

[@connorohoare7470]

He’s talking about “an empty” which is a house party you’d have as a kid when your parents when out and it would get out of hand, and this is about how it goes if it was happening as an adult

[@joealyjim3029]

I think the gig was in scotland so he didnt clean up his accent as much

[@AfterWorkReactions]

Ahh that makes sense . Because I understood what he said the last clip I watched him in he was much clearer. Thanks.

[@joealyjim3029]

After Work Reactions no worries, just got to get your ears tuned in to the accent a bit and you can understand it no problem, thats why i normally watch a few vids at a time. By the 3rd i can normally get most of it 😂

[@goose300183]

Yeah, this is unfiltered Glaswegian. It's really quite different to English. You did OK at understanding though! Some people from England can't understand full Glaswegian. When people from Glasgow (and lots of other places) are speaking to folks from the other end of the UK, they actually make an effort to speak English in a more standard manner. The accent situation in the UK is so diverse and so heavy, that we actually struggle to communicate sometimes!

[@nutyyyy]

Aye it's in Glasgow, which is where he is from, which is one of his bits how you can speak normally when you go home to Scotland

[@adamrendall5717]

I was at this exact show in October 2018, in Glasgow. He said at the start of the show he was putting on his posh accent because it was the recording night. So the night before it was probably pure Glaswegian. Beautiful

[@smahier]

"One mair (more) hour, the Spar´s open (a supermarket) we´ll get cans."

[@AfterWorkReactions]

Thanks bud

[@deborahcobain5794]

He was playing to his hometown of Glasgow, so he didn’t need to control his accent! That’s the reason it’s so thick. Scottish comedians billy Connelly, Danny Bhoy ,Daniel sloss, you know Kevin bridges and Frankie Boyle there’s more just can’t think at moment. Best wishes from Glasgow.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@CaledonianCloud]

Part of it is his strong Glaswegian accent, and part of it is terminology (e.g. ‘the Spar is open, we’ll get cans’ = ‘The convenience store is open, we’ll get some beer’) - great video, guys!

[@russelllapua4904]

Everything he said, I can relate to. Those nights are missed.

[@drServitis]

As an American living in Europe I went on a tour of the Tower of London conducted by one of the famed Beef-eater guards who spoke with a severely thick dialect. My wife, whose first language is not English but speaks English well, asked me to tell her what he was saying. I said "sorry, but I can't understand him either!"

[@danieloliver4558]

4:40 "one more hour and the spars open" Spar is a supermarket that sells amongst other thing beer

[@AfterWorkReactions]

Thanks a ton bud

[@danieloliver4558]

@@AfterWorkReactions It's actually at 4:22

[@E-A-Z-Y]

Yes this particular gig was in Glasgow, if I remember correctly. So his accent wouldn’t have been dumbed down for an English audience as much. A good one is Kevin Bridges on Grenade by Bruno Mars :)

[@AfterWorkReactions]

Thanks a tone bud we will check this one out.

[@danieloliver4558]

Billy Connolly! He's the legend of Scottish comedy. 👌👌

This was filmed in Glasgow. Its so funny, spar is like corner shops. Cans are like tins of beer 🍺 There is frankie boyle who is Scottish, Billy connolly too. Newer ones Danny bhoy quite good too. Dave Allen was Irish xx

Thanks appreciate you breaking it out down for us. Also I added the others to the list thanks a bunch.

[@reggiegimmix9128]

yeah Danny Bhoy is good... doesn't get enough coverage...probably a bit easier to understand too

[@feefee-77]

If you can find a comedian called Larry Dean he is hilarious 😆

A Glasgow accent is "thicker" than a generic Scots accent. Then you add in local lingo.

Kevin Bridges is hilarious but alot of his jokes are about scottish culture and society that may not come across very well. The guy is fantastic though.

[@Thegeordiemonkey]

Billy Conolly most famous Scots comedian.

[@scrunty9dillion]

Hello from Glasgow! Love yer vids. Keep up the good work. Limmy is a good Glaswegian sketch comic to check out. Also might be tricky to tune into the accent though.

[@MartinFarrell1972]

In the previous eipsode he was in England and normally softens his accent. This was recorded in Glasgow where it's his real accent

[@futurez12]

Whoever asked for this reaction obviously didn't think about the difficulties of the accent. If you're going to request Kevin Bridges, pick an understandable video.

[@donaldduck1828]

You must have heard of Billy Connolly. Robin Williams favourite comedian. He's like in the top three of all time with George Carlin.

[@davbhoy10]

Alot of Kevin's stuff is based on life in Glasgow and like Frankie his accent gets stronger in Glasgow lol You should watch him on the Graham Norton show its hilarious 👍

[@FayeBeedle]

Billy Connelly is immense!! Oldies but Goodies!!

[@charliecanpogger5250]

I'm English but lived in Glasgow for 4yrs and I still had problems in bits lol thanks for the 😂😂

[@donaldduck1828]

Any more Scottish comedians? Billy Connolly! Dave Allen is Irish. Another great Irish comedian, Tommy Tiernan

[@AfterWorkReactions]

Thanks bud we will check them out.

[@MrSchmeoin1]

For Irish comedians Id go for Dylan Moran or David ODoherty too. The two of them have got a really unique style and are really top class in my opinion

[@Harrison5ived]

His accent is really heavy, but the bit you missed at 4:20 - the joke is about newly married men, or new fathers rarely getting the chance to go out and party any more, so when they do, they'll do anything to stay out longer, even beyond a 6am curfew. So with that in mind, what he says then is: "You want to call it a night? What the fuck, man - one more hour! The Spar's open, we'll go and get cans." In the UK 'Spar' is the name of a store like 7-Eleven, open all night and it sells booze

[@temptemp633]

[@jamesstewart6623]

You guys really need to do a Billy Connolly reaction. He's the king of Scottish comedy and he is easy to understand too. Without a doubt one of the greatest comedians to have ever lived. If you can find the bus story you will laugh your head off

Stick with him he has loads of hilarious clips on KZbin

[@AlphaGamer1981]

Kevin is from Glasgow and it is a very coarse and strong accent. The other accent that's a little easier on the ears is the Aberdeen accent. That one is more atuned to Mrs Doubtfire by Robin Williams. I'm an English man and most of us can understand Glaswegian, but you have to hang off of every word

[@michaelfeeney299]

The crucifixion by Billy Connolly is brilliant I think it audio only but it's worth a watch. love the channel guys 💚

Hi Josh and Taylor, I love your reactions to these videos, don't beat yourselves up about the accent here, I'm English and have to listen real hard too Kevin Bridges is great but you have to tune your ears in to follow the strong Glasweigen accent.

If you read books check out Irvine Welsh, you may have heard of the film Trainspotting. Anyways his books are always written in the dialect and pronunciation of the scottish, it takes a while but after a few chapters there are a few words that are different, but used in the same way, but what I like about Irvine Welsh is he often writes words as they are spoken not spelled. It may also help with slang and in jokes. However his books are very gritty and focus on the very darkest places in humanity. You have been warned. Great video. I think you shoud check out Tom Stade, basically a comedian who lived in England, but grasped the culture. Meat van guy or anything from comedy store or live at the apollo should bee good. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iHabkIJ-ntp2pZY
