Charismatic, intelligent and a voice that represents millions of people. Thank you Mr Youssef for using your voice to speak up for humanity
Also jacked 😮
Always enjoy listening to the good Dr.
@@strangevibrationsRight!?
Dr
Humanity for one side is not humanity. The same counts for you.
You guys didn't even care about this war, you just want to be cool for the most people.
If media chew something, you automatically swallow it and buy the idea.
Now, let's question people here if They know hezbollah and hamas is looking for Jews in my country to kill. Of course, you won't know, because media didn't chew anything for your low IQ brain. Asking for people like you to think is too hard.
To understand that a war is war...Woahhh is almost impossible.
Don't forget for these people, who don't convert will be killed in their “apocalypse”.
It would never be so easy to manipulate people like I see on internet today.
He not an activist, he not a freedom fighter.
He is a legend.
💩 💩 💩
Hardly 😂
maybe to you.
He is an activist. Activists only speak their point of view.
This guy’s face was designed to be a believable revolutionist
Bassem yousef makes Middle Eastern people very proud. Brave and an intelligent guy!
Specifically the Egyptians
"You colonised the world, I think the least that we can do in return is to make fun of you" - Bassem Youssef
Nice one ! 🤣🤣🤣
the irony coming from him since Islam (aka his ancestors) colonized half of Asia half of Europe and north Africa
@@eastbow6053 really? Coming from a Christian let alone a american or brit. A bit rich coming from yous don't your think.
What a genius, a legend, and witty guy!
“You colonised the world, the least we can do is make fun of you” 👌🏼👌🏼
Screaming at ghosts
Many Arabs and other Middle Easters are white also. And they've colonized the world also. The Persians did it, the Phoenicians did it. And so did non-whites, like the Peninsular Arabs. So there is no "you colonized the world." That's a trite, mythic narrative that deserves to be busted.
Didn’t Arabs colonize most of the Middle East and Africa ? 🤔
He colonised the world just as much
He’s so smart and an absolute riot. It’s like he has a comedy show playing in his head all the time.
What??? Here in Australia???? I am one of the "only known of him for a few weeks", but so grateful for his information, and the charming way that he represents it. Welcome to Australia! May you enjoy your experiences here.
This man is a legend. Intelligent comedy.
WOW so happy the world is finally getting to know him. Articulate, intelligent, wise, charismatic, the list goes on but bottom line truthful and kind 🙏🙏🙏
Dr. Bassem Youseff is funny. Thank you for educating Piers. Maybe one day,he will be authentic like you. 🇵🇸❣️
Just a brilliant gorgeous man. His humanity and decency shines through, I hope he gets endless air time ,encouraging other artists to add to the conversation through the arts that brings us together ☮️
Bassem Youssef, from great to phenomenal. His perspectives are spot on even if you don't agree with them
I have followed Bassem for many years. I am so glad that he finally gets the worldwide recognition and appreciation. It is well deserved. He is intelligent, smart and one of the most beautiful humans in the world (both on the inside and on the outside).
You can’t help but love this man
I love his authenticity 🤍
Thank you for bringing in Mr Bassem 🙏 It's nice to see social media platforms trying to get voices from people that most mainstream media would never want to
That means you are not reading mainstream news 🤡
SBS is an Australian government funded mainstream broadcaster.
Wow..what brilliant Doctor/comedian and a truthful human being..♥️
This guy is such a gem
I just love Bassem's take on life, what a good man. xxxx
never heard of him untill i saw his pierce morgan take
he managed to break the mainstream media engine in 1o minutes
thanks
Thank you Bassem Youssef 😀 your comedy is refreshing, brilliant and FUN .
Just what I needs as a European with Jewish heritage but a total disgust with how Israel has been conducting itself since the 7th October.
Look after yourself and give yourself time out to enjoy Australia and recover from your jet lag and never ever stress about other’s expectations you are doing so much to help world regain its sanity so chill 😎
You are a hero. Bless you and your satire. It makes a big difference ❤
Bassem Youssef, what a fucken legend. Seriously this dude just exudes charm and charisma for days and he's able to cut through the typical media biasies forced narrative by channeling his fierce intellect into pointed and cutting satirical humor which can completely dismantle his opponents arguments by highlighting how absurd or ridiculous that belief is when taken to its extreme or often just the logical conclusion. He's an absolute f'n G.
We love you Bassem, you have exposed the biases of the Western world in a brilliant way!
And yet he IS living there like so many of you. Hypocrits Like always
Most Americans are very tolerant/respectful of other cultures, just don't expect us to start wearing hijabs, give up pork, or start marrying our cousins
Well you can leave the west.
The man speaks nothing but the truth
😂not true.
The comic cardiologist : Using his intelligence to point out the 'unquestionable' truth in the most beautiful, unapologetic, reasonable means of debate, dismantling lies and disarming biases. Keep going Bassem, you are the best !
What an intelligent man brave
love the quote at the end. amazing .
We love you brother Bassem Yousef.
We must protect this man at all costs
Great interview Michelle, well done 😊
Everyone should speak their mind even if they're not an activist. Like he says, that's how we build connection and empathy and grow as a society
love the artist, respect the heck out of the human being. The world needs more Bassems.
One planet, one people... we are all Humans!
But his words "bring your WHITE friends" is a bit weird. Funny how it's sometimes ignored that many "ARABS" are actually white. This includes first and foremost, LEBANESE people (who are Phoenician Canaanites, a Caucasian population). And some Palestinians and Syrians, who hail from the same people. Similarly, it includes the Berbers of North Africa, who are as white as the day is long. And some non-Berber Tunisians and Algerians as well.
Bassam I watched you and Pierce Morgan interview . Kudos to you . He wanted to argue and you took away his ability to fluster you .
Bassem's superpower is not comedic genius. Just like Jon Stewart, his superpower is sanity. With a dash of communication skills.
Yes by using the tool of comedy… which is the definition of comedic genius
This guy is fantastic!!!
He's an amazingly powerful voice and the humour makes all the difference. His two interviews with Piers Morgan alone shifted my thinking on the war, even though I've spent half of the last 6 weeks educating myself on Israel and the Palestinians.
Bassem is one of a kind! What an amazing man!
I've known about this man since his appearances on the Daily Show with Jon Stewart. Jon, a man with good taste, who recognizes brilliance in other comedians. Egypt was ridiculous to censor this man. Anyone who doesn't listen to him is afraid of being told something true in a funny and ingenious manner.
I'm not afraid of ugly realities, and he presents them in such a way that you laugh at both the immorality and absurdity of it all. And then seek to change the world for the better.
He’s a legend
From operating hearts to stealing out hearts! 😂 What a shift!
5:25 Very true, stay humble Bassem 🙏🏼 Stay a grounded family man, down to earth and kind 🤲 Don’t let this light crowd your heart
This guy is a blessing to humanity, solidarity from Wales🏴
❤
But the title he's using here is a bit weird. "Bring your WHITE friends." Funny how it's sometimes ignored that many "ARABS" are actually white. This includes first and foremost, LEBANESE people (who are Phoenician Canaanites, a Caucasian population). And some Palestinians and Syrians, who hail from the same people. Similarly, it includes the Berbers of North Africa, who are as white as the day is long. And some non-Berber Tunisians and Algerians as well.
That Aussie accent ❤❤
Everytime i watch Bassem instantly Mrs.Doubtfire in my head...
You speak for so many people. Thank you 🙏🏻
Went to the show and it was amazing. I hadn’t seen any of his stand up and got plenty of laughs. Thanks for bringing awareness to such an important topic and helping educate people. I cant wait to visit egypt ❤❤
What a gem. ❤🙏🏻
Intelligent charismatic
Super intelligent for not using what happens in Palestine on his shows because this will normalize the situation.
Bravo Bassem.
I hope to see you in Europe, I would travel to watch you ❤❤❤❤❤
Love from Morocco
Keep up the great work Bassem!
Brilliant man & humble
😂 I like the way he imitates the mum
You went there!
Loved it. Thank you, SBS. Thanks for the host.
Bassam totally blew the truth out of the water. His method is perfect.
Bassem has many talents, the one that stands out is his ability to speak about serious and tragic subjects while infusing humour and satire. He draws you in, the convincing is in no doubt
He might not be an activist, but a doctors who treats activists during a revolution is even more of an activist that the activists! Hes a legend but hes not full of himself so he doesnt want to accept what he actually is.
Is it me or this guy has the same smile as Robin Williams
Omg yes!
They have the same moon too! Yes he does! I just realized. So is his personality! And voice!
What an amazing man, clearly he has a fantastic sense of humour and is right about getting the Arab world talked about out in the Western world. 👍😆
Piers Morgan, You are a good man 😂
Such a wonderful gentleman.
SBS is the best TV station I have ever watched. And Bassem Youssef is one of the greatest comedians I have seen. Thank you!!!
The end 😂😂
Yes he is to both. We all are whether ee like it or not, volunteer or not, identify or not. We all are our brother's keeper, some acting more overtly than others. None of us live or survive in a vacuum.
I love this man!🙏🌼
Mr Basseem is a wonderful human being.
I watched both of his interviews glued to the screen and I was amazed at how charismatic and determined he was.
He never backed down but he did so with decency, humour and humanity.
I think Piers must have understood one thing or two through the process as he changed his approach in Part 2.
Great bloke, need more of him.
God bless you Bassem 🤲❤
Absolutely a Legend!
A GREAT MAN.
Thank God for him.
What a wonderful man.
What an amazing human
We love you bassem, From Egypt
Brother you are great man and an inspiration. We salute your bravery. Keep it up and give them plenty.
Initially I thought she said hot surgeon instead of heart surgeon 😂😂
We ❤ Dr Bassem
love him. true leader!
Brilliant...
Go Bassem Go ...💚
Love this guy!
Thank you
Never ever mess with MOM!!!😂
Thank you, bassim 👍
you can't stand against a middle eastern mom, that's the greatest power in thw world
😭😭😭
100% respect
Him and Robin Williams have something in common; both are comedians and look alike.
My thoughts exactly
I literally was going to write that
And have much wisdom
Warm greetings from Groningen nl but I am proud to be Polish pure Polish
Было очень интересно посмотреть.Спасибо.
Hi Bassem I'm a big fan from the Philippines. I can't speak arabic and I'm not muslim
but I really appreciate that you are voicing out your point of view about these Israeli war crimes against Palestinian people aka human babies.
Woah this lady is stunning
Arab girls ❤
Omg I love him 😍
The thumbnail 😂
Mum. The greatest superpower in the world. YES!
I'm not an Egyptian but I believe that this guy was behind the change of the brotherhood government in Egypt. We love Dr Bassam Yusuf 🌹
He is amazing
What is the reporter Michelle Elias back round country ? She's beautiful and intelligent .
Bassem ❤
Bassem has given a New Identity to the People Of Middle East.
I have to admit it. I'm a little bit in love with this man.
