I've never actually listened to his or rogans show. I just assumed I wouldn't like it.

If you have Netflix watch Jim Jeffries. That's more my sense of humor

I’ve never cared for Brendan, he’s a a douche and I don’t like listening to him talk or opine on things. So this makes me pretty happy :D

I didn’t even know he had a special, and I’ve never heard his standup, but I can’t imagine that I’d enjoy it.

Bus and truck version of Bryan who's a buck and truck version of Chris


This is what cracks me up^^^ Rogan calls out joke thieves...but is friends with two of the biggest shtick thieves in comedy...their entire stage and podcast styles are based upon Chris Delia with a bit of Sasso thrown in
Joe has yes men as much as he has friends

I saw a couple of brandon's promos for this and they are very cringe...so many deserving comedians are quietly(not publicly cause of Joe) are pissed and happy B is such a tool as a "comedian"

I like Joe in his UFC role. I have listened to a few brief excerpts of his podcast. He’s a good interviewer. With that said I don’t find his humor very funny at all. I have tried to watch his specials and well they suck. I can’t imagine have Schaub could even be at Joe’s level. Callen has his moments. Schaub is frat douche that got very lucky and made some good moves. Funny he ain’t.

Haven't watched but I bet he's funnier than BIll Burr, the most overrated standup comic ever

I can't stand rogans stand up either
He bombs hard with a neutral audience I reckon...not that he has performed in front of a neutral audience in 10 years or so

I knew a greek guy once who told me, "Some people get too much air."

He meant that some people are allowed too much time, or listened to, far too much and shouldn't be.

I suspect Brendan to be one of those people.

He's networked his way to a position that he has the ability to have a wide audience due to friends with their audience but he doesn't have the intellectual capacity to work like that do, and often tries to hard to play that role.

He needs to sit down and work a craft, not ride coat tails.

He's more entertaining when he's getting his head caved in....

Schaub isn’t my cup of tea but he’s a great example of how a fighter can have a successful career after they’re done in the cage.

He scored some major points with me for his Dana feud. It’s the only time I can think of where someone shut Dana the fuck up.



To this day Dana has not said a thing about Schaub.

That's better than his stand up. He should just go full Andrew dice clay as his comedy schtick.

Maybe but mean tweets don’t make cash. Funny or not he’s selling out theatres all over the US. I wish more fighters were able to transition from the cage to a new career as well as Schaub has.

Most people don’t understand that when you are in public, people are eager to laugh and don’t want to embarrass the person speaking. You can say about anything and if people know it was intended as a joke they give you a courtesy laugh.
Have you ever been to a wedding? The best man speech no matter how horrible it is, will always get laughs. I think it’s a psychological reaction from the crowd. They know how scared they would be to be up their on the mic so they laugh because they see themselves up there and don’t want to see the person fail.
When you record a special. You have to genuinely be funny because there is no reason for the person at home to laugh unless you make them laugh. It takes a huge amount of skill.

Schaub has only done small live comedy shows where people know who he is. They know he is an ex UFC fighter who is trying to do stand up and they move the goal posts for him.
A wider audience doesn’t know or care what his background is, and expect him to be as good as the other comedians they see on Netflix, who have usually been honing there acts for a decade or so.

I'm not suggesting he's God's gift to comedy, but people pretend he's about 3 times as bad as he actually is because it's the cool thing to do.
