thank you so much

[@franklinkopecky9644]

THANKS FOR ALL THE EFFORT YOU PUT INTO THIS ... I DIDN'T KNOW THE NAME OF SOME OF THESE COMICS

[@MD-uu5nt]

Dick Capri just roasting Drew by complimenting his acting and his books is genius. It's a perfect roast joke.

[@capovershy1974]

Yes you can hear the genuine laughter from the crowd. Brilliant bit

[@rayscotchcoulton]

This is THE bit I remember from the roast. So glad I found it again after all these years.

[@edwinbarrera2]

He was great! He and Ross killed

[@chuckfan1]

Capri passed today ,RIP

[@michaelroy6630]

"Drew Carey is to comedy what Mariah Carey is to comedy" was so damn clever

[@DPaine-rg6iz]

Ryan Styles doesnt get enough credit ! His delivery ,expressions , and timing are first rate in all the shows hes been in . He's GREAT . Love the guy

[@michaelrandall4862]

You're right. He doesn't. It is. They are.Situational. Every show!

[@heresjohnny999]

Ryan is classic in Whose Line but a host he is not, he isn't great here at all. Think hes nervous, flubs his lines. He isn't good at this kinda stuff.

[@djmcc83]

@@heresjohnny999 agree. I thought he struggled. He's better with improv

[@Arnuuld]

Well, they did cast him in 2 and a half men. But yeah, he is made for comedy 100%

[@DriftyAlison0]

I think that Ryan did this for Drew otherwise he would not have done it.

[@amstaylorph]

I was at a party and chatted with Drew for at least half an hour. At the time, I honestly didn't recognize him as he'd lost a lot of weight at that point. He was an extremely charming and friendly chap. Talkative, interesting and down-to-earth. So, there you go.

[@oatnoid]

Me to. We met, oddly enough, at a petting zoo. He shared some salt with me.

[@MeowTheWhat]

Sir, this is a roast.

[@UnprofessionalProfessor]

Who are you?

[@kimcantswim174]

He was hitting on you, of course he was charming.

[@danieljp3048]

I still see him around Cleveland occasionally when he’s in town. Still owns his childhood home.

[@thehighhopes5336]

" A man who burst onto the scene at the same time as the beetles. Not the band, the lifeform." Best line of the night.

[@jcee6886]

Agreed.

I've seen younger faces on _cash_ worked better for me tbh

[@chrisrj9871]

I also really liked "You look like Buddy Holly and Barney Rubble had a baby and then peed on it!"

[@wrench8149]

Never heard of Kip Addotta until watching this but that was the first time I cried laughing in a long time.

[@pauladouglas9891]

He does a great fish routine.

[@lexcornwheel2615]

yo how did he keep a straight face,, that was atomic

[@richardberman2778]

He had a couple of novelty songs in the 80s that made the rounds on university campuses for a while. But I don’t think I had ever seen them do stand-up until watching this video.

[@thankyoujodi]

Dude, I was crying!! Holy shit that was awesome

[@Arnuuld]

I love Drews laugh. 100% pure

[@Z4G.]

It really astounds me that Jeff Ross has been in the zone for so many years, dudes a genius when it comes to comedy.

[@iamdenislara]

You know, maybe it’s because I am from another country, but I never heard of that guy until maybe the roast of Charlie Sheen.

[@Z4G.]

@@iamdenislara Im from another country too. I've still been on the internet long enough to know who Jeff Ross is tho.

[@iamdenislara]

Z4G uh... yeah. No idea. And I was watching Comedy Central since 2010... weird. Also, I never seen an stand up routine from him, just the few roast where he shows up and his show in Comedy Central.

[@henrychubbs2823]

Yet another person hyping Jeff Ross. Are you guys paid by the network? He sucks and no amount of hype can change that.

[@shomershabbos6291]

@@henrychubbs2823 you clearly don't understand comedy, jeff is arguebly the best roaster of all time, people are not hyping him they're just saying how much they love him

[@johnhelton9533]

When I think of the finest books I've ever read, I think of Tolstoy's War and Peace, Hemingway's For Whom the Bells Toll, and Drew Carey's Dirty Jokes and Beer. Ladies and Gentlemen, do I have taste. LMAO

[@lolaarbenz417]

He got the name wrong; it's for whom the bell tolls, and the poem from which it's taken is the same. Unlikely he's all that literary; probably did this purely for the joke.

[@thatonekid4359]

I didn’t get the VCR joke and idk if it’s because of the bleep or I’m just to young

[@johnhelton9533]

[@davidbutler8096]

This was recorded October 28, 1998...In case you're wondering. Drew had his eponymous show from '95 to '04. He took over The Price Is Right in '07. Bob Barker died August 26, 2023, just few months shy of 100 years old. He hosted TPIR from 1972-2007.

[@Jobother]

Drew looked like he was having the most fun of anyone there.

[@iHeffy]

And that is the thing. Drew knows how to take jokes, let alone, knows how to just have pure fun. You can't laugh like you can't love. You can't laugh without laughing at your self, and you cannot love without loving yourself.

A real roast! Just good old dirty jokes but you know everyone is joking, today's roasts sometimes cut too deep and feel like they actually got people who hate the subject of the roast. This is classic and beautiful!

I wish there was an uncensored version of this so we could hear more than 8% of Pat Cooper's set.

[@ZacBLive]

8% too much. He’s not funny.

[@zennyspent]

​@ZacBLive He made people laugh. Hence, he's funny. Comedy is subjective, not everyone digs the same shit. I'm sure some people don't enjoy your tight 15 of knock-knock jokes during Senior's Night at the ol' Tap 'N Cap, but they aren't online straight declaring that you aren't funny. It's opinions, not facts, ya know?

[@evansgate]

Really strong sets by everyone. A classic roast
