Rick Glassman gives host the wrong intro (Just For Laughs! HBO taping) Stand Up

Stand up comedian, Rick Glassman, hands the host (Jon Dore) the wrong intro during his Just For Laughs HBO taping.
JFL Comedy Festival - Montreal, Quebec, Canada - 2014

If Rick moved to the UK he'd be one of the biggest comics over here. His humour is so British. I'd love to see him have someone like Stewart Lee on his podcast

His GF lives there! Hope so! Tooooooooooooo smart.

The fact that Rick appears to have random pieces of paper folded in random pockets and seems to be just as confused about their origins as we are- I literally laughed harder at that little nuanced bit harder than all of it. He has this absolutely brilliant ability to inject these tiny nuanced bits into his performances that some how kill via seemingly insignificant actions! I love how something is able to be absolutely hysterical to some, but to people not yet keen to his games might be totally over looked. What a special guy.

​@terranniet it's a play on an old joke someone (don't know who) told on some late night show (don't know which one) where the person said something like "I flew here this morning... and boy are my arms tired" and then that joke got repeated and referenced at nauseum.

[@steveabrahao5579]

This is funny on a lot of levels. Kudos.

[@nixthelatter]

Rick said it was actually kinda tough getting them to go along with this because they didn't want to make it seem like they were giving him more of an intro from the emcee than the other comics. They all had very basic intros, so he had to convince them it was part of his time for his act, rather than a "special" intro. Good thing the emcee was willing to participate. Rick is an absolute genius. I implore you to film a special, Rick. Please.

[@collinsmcrae]

Awesome. If he put more time in and worked on his material, he’d realize that stupid shit doesn’t work and it wasn’t funny. He got a light chuckle out of two minutes of time wasting.

I watched this for the first time when I started watching your podcasts a few months back. and it seemed confusing and all over the place. Second time around I get the humor and your style. Keep up the good work on the pod my man. It’s hard to say a comedian is different then other comedians or stands out, because they are all very different then most people. But even among them you stand out. Think I’m gonna smoke up and watch your new uncle and dad podcast that came out recently, loved the last one.

A one-take sitcom episode, the likes of which FRIENDS and SEINFELD would regard in reverence, if this was actually a sitcom. Ron Sherman is a comic whose alter ego, Rick Glassman, plays the sea of heads with impeccable timing and a sagacious over-standing of the impact of combining funny lines of words with bodily movements.
