Americans React to AL MURRAY Roasting Old People REACTION

[@barryjohnson1200]

I saw Al last October and my wife had booked the front row. Sure enough I got noticed and because Im not exactly slim, he kept feeding me packets of crisps throughout the show! Great evening & not expensive - about £35 as I recall.

[@thefiestaguy8831]

Ahhh so you were the man he kept throwing crisps at.... from now on you're Crisp man.

[@apexbaines9014]

Not bad considering there was a buffet thrown in 😂

[@777petew]

I'm approaching 65 now, and when younger would laugh at jokes about older people. I say keep it up. It happens to all of us - hopefully! I still love to hear them. What am I supposed to do about becoming older? Cry? No, I'd rather laugh. As long as it's comedic and not nasty. Anyway, I'm going for my afternoon nap now.

[@_joam_]

Great story grandad 😅 But nah, you’re totally right, and I can only hope to keep that sense of humour as I get older…

[@RichardStrong86]

I was in the audience for his show last year. There was a lot of bald people in the front rows and he came out pointing at each of them "bald, bald, bald, bald" etc and something about bald genetics letting us all survive covid. He picked on an old guy too, which was pretty funny.

[@JohnOConnell]

All of the historical detail about the D-Day landings is precisely spot-on. He really knows his stuff.

[@Chonkachella]

I saw Al Murray live at the Edinburgh Fringe. He gets the audience involved and it's hilarious! Just don't sit near the front unless you want to be part of the show! He sent a bloke to the bar to buy a couple of drinks. I was at the bar speaking to the guy, and he was like "why the fuck am I here buying drinks? I came to see a comedy show!". Haha!

[@dougiehowe802]

Al's memory for remembering audience participants names and occupations still astounds me, after watching him for years and years. His historical knowledge is legendary. BTW ... QB is looking very radiant in this reaction. QB (Callie), keep up with the resting as advised by your Medic Staff / Dr / Consultant. All the Boomerites / Muppets want to see / hear of a successful outcome / delivery of Princess Boomer. Both of you look after each other AND the dogs, AND Lil B, With much admiration and love ....

[@raycardy4843]

Hey King and Queen B..! FYI - the theatre used for the 'Live at the Apollo...' shows is the Hammersmith Apollo in London (currently known as the Eventim Apollo (sponsorship!), previously it was a cinema (Hammersmith Odeon) and dates from 1932 - it's a wonderful Art Deco building, and still has the original (restored) Compton pipe organ, the console of which can rise up out of the floor - used to accompany the old silent films of the 30's, now used for concerts..! Earlier this year went there to see Pentatonix as part of their world tour! Many of the London theatres are from Edwardian or Victorian times, with the oldest being the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane - which first opened in 1663, although the current building dates from 1810..! 😊

[@Bobthesub]

I saw Al Murray about 20 years ago in a tiny local theatre, no more than 100 people in there, met him afterwards, he’s a really nice bloke. I’m going to see him again next year on his ‘guv island’ tour at the theatre just down the road, ticket on the second row, £35… I’m a far glasses wearing nerd with terrible fashion sense, wish me luck 😂

[@grahambuckerfield4640]

Me as well, through the mid to late 90’s through the 2000’s I saw him in numerous venues, from upstairs at a pub, social clubs, through to mid sized London theatre venues. Last time was a few years back at my local theatre, the Beck in Hayes.

[@edinburgh2007]

you should cone to Edinburgh in the summer for the fringe festival, Al Murray along with lots of other comedians usually have multiple shows up here.

[@lordflashget8780]

Hey you two, glad to see you still making content, anyone who has been where you are now in regards to your precious princess knows that you are making many sacrifices to keep on doing this, there will come a time (or you are already there) when you must take time out for the health and well being of all 3 members of your little family, I for one would like to assure you that, when that time comes, no matter how long you need, I will not forget about y'all, and will be right there upon your return, and I'm quite sure most other Boomerite's feel the same, For Al Murray look up his tour rather than just london, you will find things a lot less expensive elsewhere, and I would check you are buying tickets for a "theatre" not an arena, where it is like watching an ant on stage, I have been caught a few times, I once paid more for a ticket in the second to last row at very back of the M.E.N. to watch David Bowie, than my friend paid for their seat mid way, just tryin to help, stay safe and healthy x

There seem too be far more food allergies in the US than there is in the rest of the world. In fact some US KZbinrs who've moved abroad have discovered that the problem or problems they had suddenly disappear. Also a lot of them report a weight loss, despite not changing their diet, with things being reversed when they go home to visit.

[@KingBoomer]

Not surprised. They put way too much unnecessary chemicals in most of the food here. Not all but most.

[@fookorf]

US food standards are piss poor. Utterly abysmal.

[@dmc1605]

​@KingBoomer This isn't necessarily true. The US certainly uses more chemicals in their food, and it tends to be more highly processed, but this likely isn't the whole story. It is likely that the allergic person in these instances is not allergic to the food overall but instead a common ingredient in one country but not another or yet still both countries use a very similar recipe but the available constituent ingredients differ elsewhere even if the listed ingredients are otherwise identical. There will be people who emigrate from Africa/Asia who experience this in reverse. Generally speaking, allergies involve proteins. It doesn't matter what chemicals they add if it isnt a protein allergy is unlikely. This is why 90% of allergies are either peanuts, tree nuts, shellfish or fish. It is commonly said that the West has more allergies than Asia or Africa, but this could be due to better medical care. There are more doctors and hospitals and so more diagnoses. Many allergies (and especially insensitivities) are not life threatening, and so medical care in traditionally poorer nations aren't so concerned with them because limited resources mean only more life-threatening/limiting disorders are cared about. Further, there may also be a survivorship bias. You are much more likely to survive a deadly allergy in a country with better medical care, leading to more people with the condition so you meet more people with a condition. With the peanut allergy, it has been commonly held wisdom to avoid giving children under the age of 5 peanuts to avoid the choking hazard. It is believed that this non-exposure has led to more allergies.

[@colindelamare1413]

There is a problem with gluten nowadays, that there was not in the past. Bread is mass produced at speed to get as much of it on the supermarket shelves as quick as they can. When yeast is added, the dough is only left to rise for a couple of hours. Certain enzymes in the yeast get rid of the gluten, but the dough needs much longer to "prove" for the enzymes to do their work. 24 hours was the traditional way I have heard. I could be wrong.

[@anta3612]

Also, from what I've read, the varieties of wheat used on a mass scale today are those cultivated to produce a higher yield but are not particularly suited for human digestion (I'm not talking about gm product which are in a different category). While some people have a strong digestive tract and remain unaffected, others do not. Unless you have coeliac disease or an allergy, for most individuals a small amount of modern wheat probably wouldn't do much harm. However, we rely heavily on wheat in the west (not as much in the East where rice tends to be more of a staple) and it can be found in practically everything. It can be very difficult to avoid which is why gluten free products have become so popular.

[@dmc1605]

Generally speaking, the first exposure to an allergen does not result in an "allergic reaction." It is the 2nd, 3rd, or sometimes even more subsequent exposures that cause the typical reaction. You need the first exposure to create sensitisation (unrelated to sensitivity), which creates the allergic antibodies and then a subsequent exposure to trigger a response. A non-immune reaction is called a sensitivity or intolerance. There is no such thing as a lactose (a very common insensitivity) or gluten allergy although gluten insensitivity certainly exists. Coeliac disease is an autoimmune condition, and lactose intolerance is a lack of lactase in the gut, although there are certainly milk protein allergies.

[@StephenButlerOne]

The majority of shows are now not in thesecold style thesters, but in massive arenas or spart stadium. It seems to you we only have these old quaint ones, as thr uk comics like to film their specials in them, rather thsn the stadiums. A special is just a recordring of there current act tour. Historically sold as a dvd, today its sold to netfix

[@Relyx]

My mom has coeliac disease, as does my aunt and uncle, and all got symptoms and were diagnosed in the last 10 years, well into their 40s and 50s. Very weird indeed. I've also become lactose intolerant aged 29. A month ago I could have a shake from Maccy's and be fine, where as now I have to run to the bathroom after an hour. It's crazy how big the increase of diagnosed intolerances and allergies has been in recent years in the west.

[@IanDarley]

I'm surprised that you haven't reacted to any of Al's war history documentaries.

[@simost2566]

People are perhaps half right with the gluten avoidance idea. Industrial production of bread for example now focuses on concentrating gluten content to create a more gloopy dough that needs a very short proof time. Hence the yeast and other content isn’t allowed to undergo it’s typical process time and to break down gluten and wheat proteins compared the the older methods of production. While I’m not gluten intolerant if I stuff down a mass production white bread roll or similar stodgy item compared to some properly baked or home made bread, sourdough etc I end up feeling lethargic and out of sorts, like I’m trying to digest a football. I’m sure that can’t be a good thing.

Gluten - If you abstain for long enough you can occasionally have a gluten meal for a treat. That's how it works. The problem with fries is starch. So you can get joint pains with starch, and alternate diarrhoea and constipation with grain products. As I said tho its not a constant thing. I had bad digestion for most of my life until I realised that bread was causing major problems. When i stopped, everything became easier but eating juast a bit caused a major reaction. I don''t understand why its a joke for so many not affected ;-)
