Stewart Lee on James Corden

This is the most arrogant, offensive and obnoxious thing I've heard in a long time. Fuck I love Stew :D

[@edonslow1456]

The best part about this is that I can hear Corden nervously laughing, not quite knowing how serious or not Lee is

[@lukerobinson9036]

I was going to say he's let himself go, but to be honest James Corden is looking quite well here.

[@richardmartin1519]

What? ALL of him?

[@VeteranHedonist]

He's not funny. He has an American sense of humour, so our cousins from over the pond might find him funny. The British people won't ever laugh at his scripted, not funny jokes and scenarios.

[@VeteranHedonist]

It's fucking true as well... maybe stew was just blending a little sarcasm & satire but it's actually true.

[@bambam859]

He's mainly just being a dick to be funny though, I don't know to what extent james corden gets all of his jokes but I do know loads of people who you perhaps wouldn't expect to get stewart lees jokes who actually really do and also people that really really just don't, I even know quite a few people who just think they get his jokes that actually don't

[@blatherskite3009]

Pretty sure that dog wasn't listening to classical music but, y'know, His Master's Voice. Thinking about it, it's lucky HMV was a UK company because if it had been a US company in that same era then, erm, it probably wouldn't have been a dog who was recognizing "his master's voice" and that logo wouldn't be looking so charming today, 100 years later :(

[@OllyBockus]

[@guitarreilly]

This guy is a genius. He can literally rip other peole apart but then claim its just the character when in actual fact the real stewart lee definitely believes this

[@franklingoodwin]

He's never said it's just a character. What he said is it's a character based on what people think he is, and that they're probably right actually. It's just an exaggerated more obnoxious version of himself.

Stew's whole stage shtick is that he's comically insecure and also very arrogant. James Corden is infamously known as a knob, so it feels like fair game to me. Besides, Stew's said that this bit is mainly about how funny it is to respond to OTT praise with ... this.
