Reminds me of an interview with Prince. He was asked why he stays in Minnesota. He said it keeps the bad people away.
yoooo
Same reason Chappelle lives in Ohio
Didn't keep his fentanyl dealer (AKA doctor) away... just saying.

Well, he's rich, so he was always going to find one. And when you're rich and powerful, there's no one to stop you from your worst impulses.
Hollywood is nice. I just like Minneapolis more. - Prince
This guy nailed the midwest dude mindset in under 2 minutes.
Missouri loves company.
Hey lol
HAHA, nice 😂
I’m from an hour south of Chicago. I got a taste of the west coast thought everyone was too chill. Got a taste of the east coast and everyone’s a dick so I realized home is the Midwest. Also if you like snow it’s not bad at all. The shared misery thing definitely exists. I think people in the Midwest have their feet more planted in reality than the rest of the country.
Yeah it's temperamentally and geographically between the two coasts. Go figure.
Midwest America is the only remaining bastion of true patriotism.
ive lived in central illinois most of my life, moved to the west coast twice. Came home twice. Life out there is not for everyone, definitely not for me
You couldn't be more right about the East Coast. I've lived here all my life. People are predatory out here.
@@HistoryNerd8765I've lived in Chicago most of my life and people here are predatory as well.
This is 100% true. -lifelong Minnesotan
Oh cripes quityer bellyachin!

As a midwesterner by birth (Cleveland) that's my philosophy ... if you are going to complain it better be funny. Life sucks, don't make it worse for all of us by dragging it down any further.
🎯
When and why did ya leave? Cleevy Weeve is great. Also, burbs or city?
I love East Coast people because they breathe everyone else's pollution.
Everyone needs a filter.
@@jameswolff5200I grew in the burbs. Left for 25 years for California and Texas. Came back 5 years ago, but headed back out to California soon.
As a fellow Clevelander I agree. I’ve also come back and stayed. It’s great
What many today may not understand is that the midwest features a high abundance of some of the most fertile soils and favorable growing climates in the world. Back when more like 60% (instead of today's 2%) of people participated in agriculture, this was a huge deal and made it a very desirable place to put roots down, pun intended.
if climate changes starts to ramp up, wealthy costal people will be quietly buying up farmland and setting up compounds to escape to, within this decade I fully expect it
The cold weather is critical for farming! Keeps the insects down!
Damn, I've been saying for years, "At least when I complain, I try to make it funny". I didn't realize how meta I was considering the screen name I chose.
As a native Southerner living in the Midwest for the last 12 years, I 100% agree.
From Wisconsin and this 100% this
The midwest is turning shared misery into pure joy. Mitten state represent.
The Midwest is awesome.
Everyone's mother agrees.
Especially yours. She's a gem.

Hell ya dude, proud Minnesotan

Grew up in St. Louis. When I was there and go back we just complain about how much the weather sucks, crime, economy, etc. If someone not from there dogs on it, we go into verbal attack mode. It’s OUR shithole, not yours.
St Louis is east coast wannabe. Yes? No?
Too much brick.
@@thatgreenslime9517Well, it was founded in 1764…so it’s not really a wannabe…it’s just old?
@@gmlogan4889 I'm referring to the people and how they act.
There is a lot of brick, but that is probably because of all the brick that was manufactured around STL in the past.
@@gdteak it was a government mandate to use brick.
I left the Midwest in my early 20s for over a decade, then moved back to the Midwest in my mid 30s. The older I get, the more I like the cold winters...I don't know why.
Same...I also don't know why.
We know it’s gonna end. April and May have always been the best times of my life growing up and I even now
lol there's many of us who have followed this same journey... I think the Midwest can be shit when you are in your youth, want to explore, try more, party, etc (not saying I didn't have fun at times haha)... I moved to South Korea and lived in different countries, traveling, having new experiences for half my 20s... now I'm early 30s and back in Michigan because I truly believe it's better to raise a family and to just chill. I've even been on beaches in Thailand... and ended up missing the Great Lakes because peak summertime when they are warm enough to swim in... nothing will ever beat that! lol
@@vatefairefoutre0 Lake Superior for the win.
@gheuk984 lol the one and only!!! Haha I'm a yooper and remember my sheer disappointment the first time I swam at a beach in Florida haha. "Ow my eyes! Why do I feel so gross and dry???"
As a lifelong Hoosier who’s been visiting LA since ‘ 07 when my daughter moved there from Chicago I couldn’t agree more. I love LA but can’t afford to live in the hills like my daughter so I stay in the Midwest, but at least this way I occasionally get the best of both worlds.🎉
Growing up in the Midwest and also being a sports fan, this was pretty spot-on. There's a camaraderie to both. But I will say that, just speaking for myself, I'd rather live in the Midwest than on either coast. There's a calmness to living here that doesn't exist in places like L.A. or N.Y.
I misread this as "Kyle Kinane Explains the MIDDLE EAST to Neal Brennan."
I'd pitch in to whatever crowdfunding campaign needed to make that happen.
Add rocks and rockets and it’s the same tbh
3:10 is also a Lewis Black bit about/ titled "Minnesota". Sven! this is shit! Sven, we're home.
The “shared misery” is sooo true as someone who lived in Wisconsin for the first 23 years of my life.
A decade-plus later now living in Utah, it’s so much better being somewhere that still gets lots of snow (way more, actually) and has four seasons but way more sunshine and happiness - with the beautiful outdoors. It’s the perpetual grey nothing skies that make me seriously depressed in Wisconsin.
Aside from those that settled down with careers and kids, all my old friends are just “doing alright,” as they say but never great.
The overall gloominess permeates everything and infects everyone’s mood. In short: There’s a reason why alcoholism is preferable to raw doggin’ reality when your old industrial town is bleak and you haven’t seen the sun in a month.
fellow midwesterner here: shoveling snow can be fun if you let it!
Shoveling snow is oddly satisfying similar to vacuuming. It's like watching a real life progress bar go up
💯💯Getting stoned, enjoying the quiet solitude and getting a good workout.
absolutely!
I love how quiet snow can make things at night
Growing up in North Dakota my whole life while currently living in Grand Forks (#2 coldest place in the US, look it up). I’ve visited the East and west coast like New York, Florida, Washington, and it only made me appreciate home more. I can’t imagine what life would be like elsewhere, because based off of my limited experience, especially the East coast, it was horrible.
That's the news from Lake Woebegon. Where all the women are strong, all the men are good looking, and all the children are above average.
I miss A Prairie Home Companion radio broadcasts
As someone that actually is Midwestern, west of the Mississippi and in the middle...that's Midwest..I actually have friends trying to be comedians and it's hard and dark here...
I always thought bill hicks was from the mw. He had that dark mw flare of unabashed hopelessness.
West of the Mississippi and in the middle is the Great Plains, my guy. I assume you are in like Iowa or Missouri? Learned that in elementary school. May have changed (I'm old)
Basic districts of the country were always: Northeast, Southeast, Midwest, Great Plains, Rockies/Mountains, Southwest, Northwest, and the 2 freaks (AK & HI)
Of course, you can sub divide those... like Southeast and Gulf coast states or share... like Northwest and Southwest both form the Pacific states (that also brings in the 2 freaks)
But as far as I was taught, and have helped my little ones learn... Midwest is still considered the states East of Mississippi and North of the Ohio rivers, respectively.
Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, and Wisconsin are the core states. Some maps may include Pennsylvania or Minnesota.
Basically, I consider what Kyle is describing as the Midwest is often called the "Rust Belt" nowadays.
@@ddcoddjob11ya seems like a lot of people are misconstruing Midwest and Great Plains. I agree the Midwest is those core states and I’d include Minnesota over Pennsylvania
@@ddcoddjob11Iowa is the heart of the Midwest. Get a girl from Nebraska or Kansas and you def. Have a midwestern girlfriend. Midwest doesn’t magically stop at the Mississippi. If it did, most of Minnesota would be plains.
@@kyleelsbernd7566 yea...I was just saying a state almost touching another that is the east coast thats not Midwest...and he is speaking of the Ohio valley...just like I live in the great Mississippi valley..you are 100% correct
Did I grow up with guy, sounds 100% familiar but Im still a mid westerner.
Went to high school and college in Indiana. This is a perfect description of the Midwest. Misery loves company.
From Minnesota. Most of the kids I went to school with all wanted to leave for the south or west coasts. I knew a few who moved to Florida, just to come back a couple years later. One girl is doing fine in LA but she's always kinda been west coast in mentality. I just cant stand the coasts constantly dogging the Midwest like were totally empty. Alot of them think that 9/10s of the US is as barren as Montana/Wyoming and that LA, Miami, and NYC are all that make up America
Nailed it.
I'm from the midwest please keep flying over
That Seinfeld clip hit a little too close to home.
Midwest FTW!
If you’re one of the people who finds success, you’re looked at much differently. The Midwest will disown you.
All I can say is WOW ... Those were some powerful pointa
From Indiana. 100% true.
-40°F windchill with 30 mph winds, no mountains to knock the wind down, of cornfields for that matter in the winter. 100+ in the summer. See, the way I make it as a midwesterner, is hate. I keep that hate inside for the winter. In the summer I keep it inside. BUT - when I'm sweating buckets installing ductwork in some 100 year old attic on the hottest day of the year, its not sweat. That is the simmering of the hate. After the summer, I am left with a chuck of %100 pure, concentrated, non-gmo, free-range HATE. That little chunk of hate burns red hot all winter long. You want to know why midwest guy is holding a flag outside his home, screaming with every fiber of their being, as a F-3/4 tornado is approaching? Spend a few years here; you'll want to scream at the weather too.
Whoa @germaninvenice cameo
what a SILLY BILLY.
Best thing that ever happened to me living in the midwest was when I bought a house with a carport. Haven't had to scrape ice off my windshield since. All these other buttholes had to move somewhere nice! The losers.
😂
It’s amazing how only just now car companies are realizing that adding fairly cheap seat-warmer technology that’s been around since the 80’s, to the windows and exterior of a car can completely eliminate or melt all ice and snow in minutes, whether it’s an EV or not. Completely negating the need for scraping ice off windows.
Midwest is home.
If I go to the Rainbow today, will I see a bunch of dudes flexing about how long they've been hanging out at the Rainbow?
Born and raised in Metro Detroit. The Midwest misery exists. Strangely it seems that multiple waves of immigrants from more than two other continents have made their homes here. Since my teen years I’ve had a notion that I need to get away from this place. I’ll be 31 this year and that notion has never been so strong as it is today.
Trauma bonding... Midwesterns and the military. lol
I met kyle at a smoking popes show in Chicago 2 months ago and I was mad awkward. Pretty sure he shaved his beard after that so people wouldn't recognize him anymore
You had an effect on his life!
I love Iowa don't move here it sucks
The Midwest rules
I can't wrap my head around Kinane sans beard.....
Neitzsche's "last man" right there. A follower to a T
That's LA to a T, where people go to spend money and fester in their own Narcissism while they slowly die leaving nothing but their own corpse behind.
wait is the gelled hair spike look back?? lets go!!!
I'll never understand what people have against the Midwest. You couldn't pay me to live among the super populated coasts.
while I can understand people complaining about the weather, I honestly can't relate to what he's saying here.
I guess I've seen this kind of behavior from people in a more public setting, but other than "snow birds" I can't relate to constantly complaining about the weather.
Most people I know are fine with their life here and that usually motivates them to be scheduling more events and vacations and they're some of the more better mentally adjusted people I've met. Another trope to explore are the people that are from out of state that move here and then end up miserable/stuck. They're the ones you need to watch out for... The only real drag about living in the Midwest is that its harder to find and meet new or different people here. Or how long it takes to travel to other places.
Besides crime, The Midwest is alright.
There's something about the cold that keeps the "dousche" away (except for Wrigleyville)
Bros don't live in the Midwest.
There's no room for the nonsense
Also, we have water and near zero chance of mother nature taking my house

Shared misery is a good name for what I've always experienced. Good video, but man, these guys sound soft. Born and raised in Minnesota. Worked outdoors, sometimes year round. I consider the experience a gift.
As they say, " Sane people don't live here. Thats why we do."
Midwestern zen
Have you tried the cheese?
So weird over the last decade to see talented, humble and self-aware comedians like Kyle kinda fade into the background while unfunny Rogan Bros like Bert, Andrew Schulz etc receive way too much attention. Even Segura who used to be funny transformed into an unlikable and overrated douche. Love Kyle.
Being an immigrant prepared me to live in the midwest very well. I don't deserve happiness.
Not all of us are old drunks like...
A thunk is a thought that really hits? Like Mr. Oz telling everyone to dream of a magnificent wall and all our problems will fade away.
Are you ok ?
No, I’m funny.
Balddd
Always like this, but your Blocks are too long for me, put up more clips 🙏
*"One guy got a degree, now he's in debt and nothing changed career-wise."
Brennan sucks.
Get the beard back kinane your face is wierd
My philosophy living in the Midwest is that you can easily move, so don’t complain
I had to grow up in WI.
From my experience people are miserable, I’m sure they disagree.
Everyone has depression, everyone drinks. Everyone wants to be like someone else or will do anything to crap on someone else to get a raise or their job.
I came back to CA as soon as I could after I paid for college.
CA is obnoxious but nowhere near as bad as the Midwest. I couldn’t take it, and I only came back to CA because I can’t afford HI. 😂
Because I’m a loser who had to go to school in the Midwest. At least I don’t have depression or drink.
That’s not the Midwest’s fault, you have issues.
@@colonialstraits1069 You must be a motivational speaker
You ain't wrong 😂
CA kinda sucks people wise. Nobody gives a fuck about anyone else, but in a disappointing,indifferent way. Also the Midwest has some of the best state schools in the country, so you’re a loser for lots of other reasons
Wisconsin is gorgeous in summer but the people are duller and more bleak than the weather.
Life kinda sucks no matter who you are, or where you live. Feels like some stereotyping going on here. I love your humor Kyle, but this is observational subjectivity. Opinions stated as factual. Or maybe just opinions?
Immigrant's stopped in the midwest because there were ALOT of jobs...nowadays not so much...definitely more stoned loser pizza delivery guys than good paying factory jobs
Really? Life is suffering! If only someone had made this observation before.
But like also like top 1 percent payroll for decades and decades. Burnout looser pizza making more than anyone else in the world. Nice.
