Roast of Jim Norton: Patrice O'Neal, Greg Giraldo & Others - Part 1 (2004) | Comedy Anatomy

Shot in 2004, the Roast of Jim Norton was held at the world-famous Caroline's Comedy Club in New York, NY.
It features some of the greatest comics of the New York scene, and is part of comedy history.
Produced by Comedy Anatomy's own Masavia Greer, along with Yumi Akiyama, the Roast of Jim Norton was hosted by Rich Vos, and featured comedians Jim Florentine, Vanessa Hollingshead, Nick DiPaolo, Laurie Kilmartin, Colin Quinn, Rev. Bob Levy, Ross Bennett, Ben Bailey, Opie & Anthony, the late Patrice O’Neal and Greg Giraldo (rest in peace), and of course, guest of honor Jim Norton.
Jim Norton is a comedian, radio personality, actor, author, and television and podcast host. He gained initial prominence as third mic on the radio show Opie and Anthony (featured in this roast) from 2001 to 2014. He went on to have a recurring role on the sitcom Lucky Louie. Since he joined SiriusXM with Opie and Anthony in 2004, Norton hosted Opie with Jim Norton from 2014 to 2016, and The Jim Norton Advice Show. Norton has released four comedy albums and seven comedy specials, including three on Epix and one on Netflix.

Vos has looked 43 for like 20 years.

[@chillingguy8386]

Look at Ants face when Opie talks 😂

[@Brendan-Black]

Thanks for this.

[@Sixstringman]

Opie is so Daffy duck. Him and Anthony go out to roaring appluse. Anthony says a few lines, kills, then Opie does what he does and the crowd goes silent.

[@itsrighttoberight5481]

He should of done daffys shotgun bit

[@marktucker696]

This is absolutely amazing. Part O&A, part Tough Crowd. RIP Greg and Patrice.

[@tomgrasso4818]

Richard Vos looks like Adam Sandler in Uncut Gems 🤣

[@teddboy123]

Man whoever was running the lights was not shy about letting the people know who was important and who wasn’t LOL

[@MorrowProduction]

Nick had Patrice laughing so fucking hard, he loves brutal honesty so much lol.

[@cristianramos6127]

This was the meanest Roast I've seen. Much competition and blatant attacks. It will never make it mainstream, but it was great. RIP Giraldo and O'Neal.

[@Autistic_Internet_Slap_Fights]

Sounds like it’s the first roast you’ve ever seen

[@turb0j3sus26]

That clique were the best at the time, and still are in my book. Funnier off stage, Just vicious authentic comics

[@DMurcielago]

Opie jumping in with the non-liners that dont hit or even sound like jokes 😭

[@MrIvanKnight]

I love the fact that Opie and Anthony were there. What great days these were? RIP Patrice O'Neal!

[@paulpeddie8403]

Wait.. Opie? Seriously?!?

[@chillingguy8386]

@@paulpeddie8403 I hate Opie as much as the next guy but I get his point ,the feeling of the old O and A days .

Every few years a legend dies

[@borgtwat]

Nick's off the cuff shit was fuckin brutal 🤣

[@Iamjimpage]

Laurie Kilmartin and Colin Quinn absolutely murdered this whole roast. Not a single dud.

[@CALISUPERSPORT]

Great thing about Ant’s ghoulish looks: he hasn’t aged a day in the last 17 years

[@slimgym45]

"All 3/5 of him." 😂

[@TheRealMrLane]

Brutal😂

[@MJAce85]

As soon as I read this comment nick said it. Fucking murder right off the cuff too

[@Connection-Lost]

good lord Ant looks like a guy you instantly call the cops on if there are children around at all

[@theoriginaltommysteward]

The best part of this is that it's almost indistinguishable from how they talked to each other on O&A. Hilarious. Also -- Bob Levy looks like if Elon Musk tried to be Dice.

[@sguraya7223]

Remarkable, first thing Opie says is a bomb

[@Zuey1017]

Literally lmaoooo

[@SundayMorningRunner]

He was testing the waters as any good Capitan would do.

[@misterkimjongun]

🤣🤣🤣🤙

[@Brotheroppi]

Consistency. Been doing it since he's 18 soooo

[@ggagoots]

I loved it lmaooo

[@slimgym45]

Nick Dipaolo is absolutely priceless!!!! 😂 I've watch his part so many times 😅

[@stevenkoudanis5238]

Still shocked he’s from Danvers Mass 2 towns over from mine

[@mrmoofle]

Check out his podcast.

[@oldgroucho2203]

he used to be funny before he went all fascist.

[@letsgocards0421]

Opie wasting no time bombing 🤦‍♂️

[@gamernotvalid9452]

Nothing better than Patrice laughing his ass off. Nick killed

[@Doctor_Smith]

Ant’s bugs bunny/daffy analogy with Opie was spot on

[@Ray_D_Tutto]

"ingrates".

[@fanosoX]

Ope and Ant look like they’re having a great time. I know it’s beyond repair, but I miss the days when the gang got along

[@kholertownfloods6324]

Everyone was so young and full of life.

[@adamvaughan5490]

Vos was still like 48!

[@SM-sf1xy]

Damn Laurie Kilmartin killed it! Fucking top level

[@haydendivine8412]

I love when Rich thinks he's hittin homers 😂 he recovers good though when he's not stammering

[@cbalaxc]

Hahaha DiPaolo just smashes her perfectly..I’ll give her credit, that is a tough dais to be on and but the wheels came flying off quickly in that disaster

[@cbalaxc]

….DiPaolo just kills it the entire time.

[@BasedBork]

1 minute in and Opie's already bombing lmao

[@TheControlStick1]

Colin Quinn said it best, Anthony is a back alley Tunisian knife fighter.

[@shaharperez5107]

it's so weird to find something new and good after watching like hundreds of o&a

[@kobe24OBCity]

As soon as he talks, Opie silences the crowd

[@chriswelter3859]

I miss seeing these guys. They are being absolutely savage to each other, but then there are these moments that poke through where you see that all these guys really loved one another. Just a great group of savage comedians.

[@f1aziz]

Always loved hearing Patrices' voice, damn I miss him.

[@tgezing27]

Nick KILLED

[@chrisnunez111]

This is gold...thanks for releasing. So many legends on 1 stage. RIP Giraldo and Patriece🙏

[@GymAndSun]

This is great. Love any old NYC comic content. RIP THE LEGENDS GREG AND PATRICE

[@garthybrookens4839]

This channel be dropping Patrice and the whole Tough crowd Gems Bless you for this. The audio of the roasts were out a while back never knew there was a video.. Thanks once again.

[@dereksteele291]

yes, they do be.

[@nigelleeakamoneybanklocks8903]

These are the NYC radio and comedy greats, Top notch shit👏👏

[@tonyg490]

Opie so desperate to be funny like Ant. You can see why he began to resent him.

[@corywiedenbeck1562]

Idk man I think they were just having a good time

[@alfredernesto8386]

i know it is quite randomly asking but does anyone know a good place to stream newly released series online?

[@SteezLouise]

its sad.... if Opie just had embraced his role.... there would still be magic in the world

[@billb615]

1:30 Nice bomb Gregg, never fails to stop the flow of the talented ones.

[@tgezing27]

Fuck that made me cringe so much

[@mrmoofle]

Opie was the honorary hole.

[@naylik2562]

Honestly kinda made me feel bad for the guy... He just seemed dorky as fuck.

[@petershury7135]

I’m surprised he didn’t take a call from some random douche with fuck all to say

Even Opie couldn't ruin this show

Hahahah! Now I can’t unsee it lol

He really is horrendous

[@och70]

Absolutely legendary lineup sitting at that table.

[@poppycock31185]

When I watch things like this it gives me so much more respect for stand up comedians who are great at stand up because so many funny comedians are awful or average at doing actual stand up or roasts.

[@turb0j3sus26]

These guys are legends tho

[@orryrobb5160]

Holy shit this is absolutely brutal. What a great roast to stumble on. Love Jim Norton.

Giraldo was good as usual but Laurie Kilmartin murdered everyone on this.

[@SNNetwork]

lol opie is so awkward in public

[@WaldoBagelTopper]

LOL Vos is a funny dude. It took a while for me to "get" Vos, but he IS a heavy hitter with insults. Just not as quick as Colin and the like- but does have some brilliant stuff.

[@EastboundAndDowns]

He just cannot get a flow going. He starts to be funny and then it just drives off of a cliff.

[@odonnchadha1978]

Vos is great, theres also value in him being the target, hes such a great punching bag and i think he knows that and uses it

[@fanenthusiast3802]

His lisp makes it funnier because it takes him even longer, to get through the joke. By the end it's hilarious. Ever seen his standup in black comedy clubs. He's totally out of pocket, but it works, it's even funnier with his crew constantly crapping on him. Everything escalates beautifully. It's like the player haters ball. Irl

When he’s on point he’s great 👍
