I want to give a shout out to Russel's mother Maureen. We worked together in the early 80"s in Kmart. I was a newly arrived Senior Manager. My mother paid a visit and started chatting with Maureen. As most mother's, she was worried about how her 20 year old son was going to fend for himself for food. Maureen was a Manager in our restaurant and promised my mother she would take care of me. She did. On rare occasions at night, even as she was closing down, she would ask me it she could cook something for me to eat. I still remember her stubby little fingers going to work making me a meal. What a very sweet lady. I also remember Russell, Clayton and their Father coming into the store. I believe the boys were into Rap at the time. Thank you for your affection and kindness Maureen. I still appreciate what you did for me today. ❤
Russell and the Peters family were our next door neighbors in the mid 70’s…great people. We have all reconnected in recent years and it’s been great. I can tell you for certain that Russell, along with his brother/manager Clayton, are two of the nicest and generous people I have ever known.
In 2010 I did the IT and AV for a Chinese teachers conference in Sydney, Australia. One speaker showed a full Russell Peters skit where he was doing the Chinese accent and making fun of Chinese. The audience was in absolute stitches. There was no offence taken, they loved every second of it. How times have changed.
It’s about time someone found Russell Peters and podcasted him. His “Green Card Tour” was the antithesis of everything people fight about these days. He was also way ahead of many others on a lot of issues.
He’s great! I saw him in LA years ago and laughed so hard. He doesn’t just do the cheap race jokes, he really gets to know the inside information of different cultures and that’s what makes him so good. I think we’re just so impressed that he knows small details about our cultures.
The first time I saw Russel Peters, it was at Yuk Yuk's comedy club in Vaughn. This had to be around 2000-2001. I ended up in the front row with my other 2 friends. He roasted us all night. I still remember some of the jokes he laid on all of us. Especially me. They were all right on the spot and very specific to me and my friends. You can't pull that off unless you are really good at the craft of comedy.
Now I know why RP is successful. He is the smartest comedian of our time. I have been a fan for 30 years. He gets it! He probably has a photographic memory. He rattles off dates, names, places, and times like a history professor! Sorry, "no one is going to get hurt really bad" anymore (RIP Mr. Peters) Great interview!
I saw him live in NZ...loved it... Didn't know he had to endure so much rejection and struggle.... Glad he is such a success... He deserves every bit of it...🎉
I met Russell in Winnipeg of all places. He is humble and gave me the time of day to share a Mentalism Demonstration to his crew. Very good peeps. His brother is very kind too...
My son who is an American born told me about Russell peter after that I never stop watching him. I laughed so hard .I start to share his clip to my Indian friends😂😂 he is my stress reliever
Always loved Russel Peters...he was the first comedian i became a fan of....and of course he hit the nail on the head with everything he said in this interview ..especially that last comment. Its not religion its a colour issue.❤ Still haven't seen you live ... one day!!!!
As a canadian that grew up up in Toronto's rival City, Montreal, and left Canada in '89 I'm happy to see a Great Canadian Comedian make it internationally. Not only that he is one of my favourite Standups period. Nice interview!
When I came across Russell P, back then, I thought, what a breath of fresh air in comedy. A times went by, he even got better. I like the guy. Intelligent dude.
I am so glad I watched this interview. So many good points and lines said.. I don't think I ever had to pause a video so many times to stop and think about the points said. The last bit was also very interesting to hear and think about. Great content and please never ever change Konstantin and Francis!
My Millennial pal ended our friendship of years, because he suddenly got more sensitive about Comedy. He was always a drinking, pot smoking, Punk rocker, hard worker ( yes, he actually was ), YET out of nowhere he said to me one day about Comedy, "Well, I think the point is to not punch down." I immediately disagreed, saying you can joke about anything and anybody in Comedy. That's the point. After that conversation he never spoke to me again. Iced me out. All over a disagreement about Comedy. FFS. I feel sorry for younger generations taking their sensitivities way too far. It's good to care for the world, and one way you do it is to be INCLUSIVE in teasing them! They've been taught that all forms of teasing is mean, "hate speech", bigoted. They are missing out. Glad that Russell doesn't sell his soul to conform to the younger generations.
Comedy is about finding the humor in every situation. Anyone who thinks it's about 'punching down' or any other direction doesn't understand comedy and just wants to politicize everything
ive always been a fan of russel peters. ever since those early start days of youchub, and I'm so happy you got to sit down and talk with him. Truly miss his comedy and hope he does well. ^^
I grew up in the suburbs of Toronto and when I was in highschool, he was trying to build up a fan base. He would come once in awhile and would do a standup set on the stage in the cafeteria during the lunch break. It was a perfect school for him to play as we had a pretty large brown student body.
My brother is a comedian and friends with Russell Peters. A fantastic comedian and a trailblazer..well done Peter.. Wish you every success with your comedy career brother😉
Big fan of the three of you. So glad you got together. Awesome interview because I learned so much about RP, there were so many interesting anecdotes about people I have followed for so long, and there were some very interesting insights into today's culture and events. It's comforting to know that there are still people championing common sense, decency and respect towards those who deserve it, and the importance of still having court jesters amongst us to remind us who we really are and point out what we're really doing by "ruffling our feathers" a little!
Ive been a Russel fan for decades and seen him live in South Africa. And this video is the FIRST time that has revealed the size and length of his nose. Daaamn! Love your work man. Especially when he talks boxing with the likes of Joe Rogan. Russel is very real and a voice for our gen that looks around at this new millenial and gen z and alpha and wonder wtaf.
WOW! What an incredible interview! Thank you for taking us back to where it all began and the journey ‘til now. Huge fan.. Russel Peters is how I got introduced to standup comedy back on Limewire 😅… must have watched that set dozens of times as a kid. Really liked the interview format… chill.. great questions.. inspiring stories!
You ARE Saving Lives! If it wasn't for comics I would Not have survived the lock downs! You all helped me laugh before bed and took my mind off all the stress and worry about everything. Also, I haven't use the lavatory for 15 years with out hearing Russell's impression of his father saying "go, go nicely" 😂 I love all of you! Thank you! Bless you!
Russell Peters, you're a great comedian very humble.Just keep it that way.I want you to special on RUclips.Just keep it going, my brother.God bless you that's all I have to say❤
This is so true, I remember when he first came out there was a lot of controversy around him but I’m so happy he got through all of that, look how far he’s come and he’s amazing!
Love ya Russell! Just watched your old shows on you tube with my twin sister after 15 years (life happens ya know). We couldn’t stop laughing and Rewinding and laughing again 😂! Never gets old ……You are the best hands down in our book! PS I only learned about Brampton from a Punjabi guy I was talking to (US gal here) for many months. Man, this guy was even more sheltered than I was! Not a pug guy, a clean shaven jatt sikh. All our best to you and your big beautiful family 🇺🇸🙏🤗
We are a 6 figure income couple and had very little saved and not much cash lying around the preverbal". '...don't have $500 for an emergency" that was us. The big thing was debt all kinds of it, cars mortgage (although our home isn't a high price one), student loans for our kids, and of course credit cards. One day we just got sick of being broke and went total scorched earth and became frugal overnight. Paid it all off, it took almost 5 years but now we have no debt and this year our savings rate is 50% on basically the same income that had us perpetually broke. So for us it is mainly staying out of debt and watching our spending, at first it was a real effort to save in our HISA and 401Ks but now it's actually fun watching our money grow. No car or vacation or neighborhood is worth being broke or financially unstable.
Taking your medicine can be tough. But in the end, if you are committed, you will end up in a very satisfactory position. It's all about what you're willing to do.
Your financial journey is truly inspiring, and I'm currently striving to achieve the goals you've reached. Could you please share some tips to help others learn and navigate their own paths to financial success? Your insights would be invaluable.
I believe everyone could benefit from having a personal financial advisor. They can assist you in reaching your customized financial objectives at any point, ensuring you remain profitable.
Thank you God for all your blessings to me and my family for the strength you give me each day and for all the people around me who make life more meaningful praise God praying for everyone everyday God bless you all 🙏🙏🙏
Palestinians don’t look Jewish. Loved this show! I love ❤Russel. I will never forget when he was on my flight going to Cleveland! Russel was just starting out and I was star struck! No one knew who he was (they were older) but he was even funny on the flight. Just an amazing and kind soul!
It was never about the money, then says 'Hey, if I can make $1500, that's good money, why work eight hours and make $100" It's always about the money whatever it is, but RP has earned my respect by doing what he loves while not caring about money though truthfully, yes it is.
I watched him on Comedy Now in 2007 when it came on. It was amazing. I wish they made it to DVD. He’s funny. I could have seen him when he came to my town and I didn’t end up going. It’s a regret I have. He’s one of Canada’s best comics.

and.?
Are you a fellow Bramptonian?
@@caltech25 Yes
I can tell you that Russell and Clayton are very common Indian names
Sadly I can't say the say from Trevor Noah. I'd love to meet Russell
Russell Peters was, is and always will be hilarious, totally cool and one of Canada's cultural icons.
More of an international cultural icon at this stage 😊
Russel. Russel. Your interview … too good ,too good . Russel it BLASTED My MIND..
In 2010 I did the IT and AV for a Chinese teachers conference in Sydney, Australia. One speaker showed a full Russell Peters skit where he was doing the Chinese accent and making fun of Chinese.
The audience was in absolute stitches. There was no offence taken, they loved every second of it.
How times have changed.
The skit about what happened at the Pacific mall? 😂
How many Tap Sum Bongs were there this time? 😏
It’s about time someone found Russell Peters and podcasted him. His “Green Card Tour” was the antithesis of everything people fight about these days. He was also way ahead of many others on a lot of issues.
He’s great! I saw him in LA years ago and laughed so hard. He doesn’t just do the cheap race jokes, he really gets to know the inside information of different cultures and that’s what makes him so good. I think we’re just so impressed that he knows small details about our cultures.
100%.. with all races. He’s even had some of the funniest black jokes that are so detailed
The first time I saw Russel Peters, it was at Yuk Yuk's comedy club in Vaughn. This had to be around 2000-2001.
I ended up in the front row with my other 2 friends. He roasted us all night. I still remember some of the jokes he laid on all of us. Especially me.
They were all right on the spot and very specific to me and my friends. You can't pull that off unless you are really good at the craft of comedy.
Now I know why RP is successful.
He is the smartest comedian of our time.
I have been a fan for 30 years.
He gets it!
He probably has a photographic memory. He rattles off dates, names, places, and times like a history professor!
Sorry, "no one is going to get hurt really bad" anymore (RIP Mr. Peters)
Great interview!
I’m a 64 old man , simply said thank you👍thank you bringing comedy to all parts of the world, you are educating as well
Russell Peters is the best at his business! Thank you for hosting him... Fellow Indian American here.
It's 'American Indian'... 😜 (though Mr Peters is himself a Canuck).
@@benjamin4894 isn't American Indian different from Indian-American?
We usually say Indo-Canadian.
I saw him live in NZ...loved it... Didn't know he had to endure so much rejection and struggle.... Glad he is such a success... He deserves every bit of it...🎉
"somebody's gonna get hurt real bad"😂
"But I'm not gonna say who!"
I met Russell in Winnipeg of all places. He is humble and gave me the time of day to share a Mentalism Demonstration to his crew. Very good peeps. His brother is very kind too...
Comedy brings joy and laughter to people's lives: those few precious moments of joy and laughter is so good for the soul. Thank God for comedians.
My son who is an American born told me about Russell peter after that I never stop watching him. I laughed so hard .I start to share his clip to my Indian friends😂😂 he is my stress reliever

Fantastic interview! Grew up listening to Russel. What a charming man.
"Somebody is going to get hurt real bad!"😂😂😂
Comedians are society's court jesters. They give voice to truths no one dares to say aloud.
As a canadian that grew up up in Toronto's rival City, Montreal, and left Canada in '89 I'm happy to see a Great Canadian Comedian make it internationally. Not only that he is one of my favourite Standups period. Nice interview!
When I came across Russell P, back then, I thought, what a breath of fresh air in comedy. A times went by, he even got better. I like the guy. Intelligent dude.
Top 10 comedians of all time. Underrated in the USA but not the world. I think he’s the worlds fave comedian of all time
first international comedian who could cross cultures and make jokes
I am so glad I watched this interview. So many good points and lines said.. I don't think I ever had to pause a video so many times to stop and think about the points said. The last bit was also very interesting to hear and think about. Great content and please never ever change Konstantin and Francis!
Hollywood have missed the bus of having Russell as a voice over for some of their movies
true!
We love Russel here in Canada! Great interview you both! 🔥🚀🙏🏽🧡
Comedy *does* save lives -- many people have held back from killing themselves over a good joke -- good comedy makes life worth living 👍

Well..his candy ass lost a dwar friend.

He comes across as a very nice guy. I'm happy he's so successful. And it's always great when that happens.
ive always been a fan of russel peters. ever since those early start days of youchub, and I'm so happy you got to sit down and talk with him. Truly miss his comedy and hope he does well. ^^
Russell Peters is a national treasure. I love the stories and the synchronicities. Amazing.
By all accounts he's one of the nicest guys in the industry and takes care of everybody. Great guest.
I grew up in the suburbs of Toronto and when I was in highschool, he was trying to build up a fan base. He would come once in awhile and would do a standup set on the stage in the cafeteria during the lunch break. It was a perfect school for him to play as we had a pretty large brown student body.
It’s takes a natural talent of doing accents and knowing other cultures which I can see why Russell can get away with. Genius.
Russell came out to Iraq back in 2007 and did a show for us. I’ve been a fan since.
My brother is a comedian and friends with Russell Peters. A fantastic comedian and a trailblazer..well done Peter.. Wish you every success with your comedy career brother😉
Peter??
Such a class interview with hearts and minds speaking out.

I have loved Russels comedy for years

Now i'm just gonna have rhythm of the night stuck in my head for the rest of the evening. Thanks, dude.

It's on RUclips
Russell is a legend! Great interview
Peter Russell is one of the best ever.
I am the generation of British people who grew up in a multicultural set up , Russell Peters is the first comic from.north America who i found had a "world view" his chinese and indian impressions as well as numerous others are very accurate and hilarious , not to mention his bit about the arabs insisting they can "bake a cake in twenty minutes "they are are all the more hilarious when one has encountered the same things oneself with those nationalities and it's all very close to the truth .
Please Russel dont downplay humor. Its on of Gods gift to humans. You have helped me look back in stead of playing with the edge on some dark days. Comedy does help humanity my friend
Great interview. Interesting guy. Great he acknowledged the influence of the Goodness Gracious Me show to comedy.
Love me some Russell!! Love it!
I can’t imagine what it’s like to become good friends with people you looked up to or maybe a fan of.
Is this the "somebody gonna get hurt real bad" guy?
That's the boy
Great revealing interview

❤ someone is going to get a 'hurt ' real bad. 😂 Love russel peters. Seasoned comedian .
One of the fastest hours I have ever spent, just listening and absorbing. AbFab.
The guy in the blue...what's with the lips??😂😂😂😂
Been a huge fan of Russel since u saw him at Yuk-Yuks in Windsor Canada in 98. Sat front row and he took the piss outta me, it was fucking hilarious. Great interview fellas 👏 👍
44:20 : Russell’s old stand-up comedy about different cultures and races, was and still is hilarious.
Yet, the clean stand-up comedy of Konstantin and Nicholas de Santo, is wickedly funny, due to satire and sarcasm based on their erudition about politics, history and world affairs.
Thanks for this brilliant interview. The Taylor Swift comments is spot on. Love Russell. Nice to know we’ve got that in common too.
