The Comedy Special Scam Nobody’s Talking About

- Опубликовано: 8 янв 2024
- In 2022 Andrew Schulz released his comedy special "Infamous" directly to his fans through his website. However, he soon released it free on RUclips after his fans had paid to watch it through his website.
This video explores how comedians are racing to offend people for free publicity and the fake cancellation narratives they try to push.

😂😂😂…. Only 6?
@@timetowakeup6302 I know right lmaoo
Katt is lame too but he wasn't wrong
The Ari Shafir special on Netflix was very funny.
@@somesquirrel😒 not really
Akaash is the most unbearable person to listen to. He’s like that kid in school that kept poking you and laughing and thought it was hilarious
100% he sucks.
Have you ever heard of ANDREW SCHULTZ?
Yeah his shtick is too just act super confident and funny
and the second you poke back he'll holler for the teacher
As a brown guy, yes. Hard to claim him.
Using FOMO to sell a comedy special and then burning your own audience by releasing it for free a month later is funnier than any joke Schulz has ever made.
But don't they do that with movies?🤔
@@jone.killshot439The difference is that Schulz said his special wasn’t going to be available at all after the limited time, we all know movies are going to be released elsewhere later.
@@jone.killshot439 yes
this is the same bullshit they are complaining about.
10/10
Anybody who's willing to pay either their money or their time to listen to that sausage with a moustache deserve to be scammed
Also important to note, that Louis wasn't "cancelled" for anything he said in a comedy special.
The real story is super nasty though.
Id HATE that dude in my real life.
What a creep.
Yeah I agree it's pretty creepy when someone asks you if they can masturbate in front of you and then you say yes and then like a child run and tell on him as if he abused you
U don't ever get possible consensual urges
@@ChristinaFromRUclipswhat did he actually do? I didn’t really follow it when it happened or was that into him so I never actually knew what he did.

It was zoo monkey behavior.
He would call people into his office and then start uhhh self-pleasing in front of them
This comedy bubble can't pop fast enough.
It’s not just comedy, it’s pretty much the mainstream entertainment industry as a whole over the last 10-12 years or so. There’s some good stuff here and there, but overall It’s a steaming pile of pure dog shit.
@@timetowakeup6302its always been like that.
@@timetowakeup6302that's why watch the old old movies and TV shows
100% bubble, it's why I like this channel- I don't actually have to watch these terrible specials to join in making fun of them for being bad.
You know the bubble is ready to burst when channels like this one, are getting more views than the comedians they’re criticizing. Pop!!!
The pandemic created so many mid comics and podcasts to be very successful - correction pending
Correction is in mid flight. Love it
Yup the correction has already hit Two Bears. The rest will follow and only the genuinely funny will remain like Theo and Tim Dillon.
Theres still funny comedians with podcasts, they are just really few and far between lol, Bill burr and his wife, theo, bobby and Andrew
Always called my friend weird for listening to like 5 different podcasts that all have the same people on it
It’s super watered down because of the their “brotherhood” approach. That’s why you can really name only a handful of top tier comedians from back in the day. They rose to the top while the shitty ones complained.
Andrew is someone who thinks he is wayyyy smarter than he actually is. That where he compared Netflix to RUclips is so bizzarely stupid that you really have to sit in awe of it. And he plays it completely straight and with confidence.
If you had any smarts on ya you would know that youtube is way bigger and more profitable with billions more views than Netflix will ever have. Numbers don't lie
Dunning Kruger is one hell of a thing!
"Punching down" isnt a term created by suits and producers. its literally from a George Carlin quote about why he didnt like Andrew Dice Clay. Carlin said Clay was a coward because if youre doing social commentary comedy, its easy to punch down at people with less agency in society and that a good comedian punches up at the systems. the whole thing is short hand for "Dont go after people, go after ideas and systems" how does Schulz not know this. its like the 4th most memorable thing Carlin ever said.
Cause Shultz is a hack clown with confidence that just does not match his level of talent or material lol
Cause Shultz is the worst. But I think they’re mostly quoting Michelle Obama…
Christ George Carlin was no fun I don't get why he's so praised, his "comedy" felt like angry lectures
@lolwut77777777777 tbh my favorite Carlin is all his old kinda goofy stuff from the 70s. The hippy dippy weather man, he super long bit about time and clocks, how we talk about dead people vs how we talk about the living. All the angry rant stuff people seem to love the most starts in the late 1980s. Even in the mid 80s it was prolonged bits about dogs lol.
@lolwut77777777777 Because that became the route top comedians take.
Either that, stop touring or go into tv and movies
I prefer watching videos pointing out and making fun of these dudes than watching any of their podcasts or specials
Same, that is why I like Redbar Radio he can comment on the fools AND be funny! 😅
@@CumtownAndConspiracyClips exactly
I agree 100%. It's way funnier to enjoy the shortcomings and cringe moments of these entitled bunch that listen to anything they have ever put out. They are the clowns of the circus and if they are not good enough to make people laugh, at least they can be used as targets for people to mock them for being walking stereotypes of what we should strive not to be. The only problem is that they're making so much money doing so little work that they have effectively deluded themselves into thinking their work is actually valuable.
It’s a guilty pleasure I can only maybe watch an episode like this once a week. People like you guys in the comments really turn me off from ever watching this stuff consistently.
Pretty sad and depressing knowing that there’s this many people out there in the world who want to see other people fail. Like it’s totally cool to have this type of energy towards somebody like P. Diddy. But to have this kind of energy towards Andrew Schultz is ridiculous. I don’t really like Andrew as much as I used to. I do think he is pompous and arrogant but the guy is an innocent person. He never hurt anybody or did anything that brought harm to anyone. Is he cringe? You bet your sweet ass he’s cringe. But it would be nice if people took that very same pleb resentment type of angry hate energy and channeled it towards somebody who deserves it like P. Diddy.
That means the matrix has you!
Ricky Gervais is worth hundreds of millions, has multiple mainstream shows, hosted the golden globes 5 times and won multiple awards. And people still think he’s some sort of maverick who operates outside the mainstream
He’s unbearable
I don't think there are many people that think that of him besides himself
@@5_Star_Manall the red pilled green frog kids think all of these comedians have been canceled.
@iansenkbeil8553I watched a RUclips video called Ricky Gervais the most hated man in Hollywood! He’s got like 5 golden globes
Nobody thinks that. If you're hearing that commentary, it's in your head.
That betting ad was legit the most pathetic thing I've seen in a good while, SMH
Funny how these guys are “speaking truth to power” now that it’s safe to do so.
Comedy booms when this happens, the 80s boom the 70s boom the 00s boom and the 60s boom now we are in the 20s boom. There's just over exposure now instead of a yearly special from let's say Carlin or Pryor
Going on and on about cancel culture on their own Netflix special making millions of dollars…. not getting cancelled in real time. “You can’t say anything anymore!” 🙄
Andrew is so brave... for a small fee...
🤣
lmao
lol every time I’ve heard any comic, who puts their special on RUclips, reference him as inspiration I want to scream at my phone “you wouldn’t have thought of that move yourself???”
I think you mean Top Fee, fam. (Get it? Because Andrew? Like Andrew Tate? Anybody? Okay, imma head out.)
@@Wardog01Actualyeah, you do that bud.
The problem Shulz has is louie actually knew how to do a lot of the production himself from years of learning and shooting small films. Louie has the key ingredient, talent.
Why Schulz doesn’t do a podcast by himself?
He always around someone to laugh at his jokes/takes.
Charlamange to rogan then Flagrant (where it looks like he will leave if any of the cohosts doesn’t fake laugh).
Louie had talent? Where in his pants? LOL! He was the original Andrew Shultz, not funny Jerry Seinfeld want to be
Chapel getting cancelled is the best thing that happened to Netflix that year. Netflix would never censor a comedy special after that. If anything they might be reluctant to work with safe comedians like Amy Schumer who've never gotten ''canceled''.
Imagine the executives being like '' Can you please cut out that offensive joke, it might go viral on Twitter and they're gonna talk on every news channel about it''
Exactly!
It led to Netflix being the only company in their sphere bucking Blackrock's artificial standards for acceptability 💯
Love that his solution for getting noticed in a "sea of content" is not to make his stuff better, or unique, but to trick people with FOMO lmao
Fomo always work
Im always at a loss at how Andrew Schulz fancies himself as such a edgy and innovative comedian when he's such a run of the mill, mainstream comedian
lol he makes fun of other races and cultures. i love that he does!
all of his innovations are marketing gimmicks as well. None of it is comedy related.
*when he’s such a hack*
Fixed That For Ya
not to mention how much of a sensitive little bitch he is about his own work, lol.
cause new york. lol I actually like dude & love ny but that's that ny ass shit.
The pay-per-view experience he wants to create already exists…. it’s called a live show.
Andrew Schulz neglected to address the most important rule in comedy:
Rule # 1 - Be funny.
I mean he’s not UNFUNNY I’ve seen way worse
Bro i was at his Sydney show and he was funnier than Dave Chappelles Sydney show...
@digbick85 none of these guys are funny.
@@digbick85Dave hasn’t been funny since his return but Andrew isn’t funny either! They can say a funny joke it two but nothing consistently
That is my primary complaint with his comedy.
"cancellation" in comedy has been a scam from the start. It's basically just "bad press" and in entertainment all press is good press.
No human has an URGENCY to see anything Schulz does.... lol
I think his tours over the last few years selling out an hour into releasing tickets otherwise
Akash.

Lol Andrew doing the Louis C.K method of distributing a comedy special and calling it his own idea. 🙃
This channel is dope. I got really into the comedy industry during the pandemic and I’ve been wondering why these comedians I used to rock with have gotten more and more insufferable lately. Love this analysis
Same. I’ve been into comedy since arounf 06 when I was still in school. Through the radio show Opie and Anthony. They had a comedian as 3rd mic named Jim Norton who brought in a bunch of others.
Nothing lasts.
Ego kills career
Cause they aren’t comedians and you aren’t a comedy fan.
@@bobbybill1773 So you decide whose a comedian and whose a comedy fan? Some steep entitlement there. What makes a person act like that?
"I'm being cancelled and they're trying to silence me"
Some guy in front of a full auditorium being recorded for international streaming
I 100% believe Andrew lied about being forced to go “independent”….
His comments in the past about “all that matters is getting that bag” prove it.
Andrew is a slew man. Everything is a plan and a lot of lies are in there
Cthg is why I don't take him seriously
He wasnt forced. He says in interviews he saw how big comedians recent netflix specials wernt getting traction so he wanted to make it a limited time, pay to own thing and it worked great.
6:00
Oy vey
I wonder if Shulz is one of those 6 comedians katt Williams was talking about 😂
he definitely is lmao
Yep
I was thinkin its the Protect Our Parks crew plus Tom and Bert and maybe Tony. The difference is Mark and Shane are genuinely funny and keep getting better, the rest of Rogan's friends have been on a downward spiral
Yes
Chappelle said so too
Ever notice how guys who smoke cigars are exactly the kind of people you avoid?
Watch RedBar, you won’t regret it!
Not all of us!!
@@joseluiselizondo1376 Fair enough, every situation has statistical averages and outlying factors.
@@joseluiselizondo1376 Nah, you just made damn sure people should avoid you. It's like when chicks say "Men are trash." The dudes who reply "Not all of us!" "Not all men!" are exactly the ones you want to avoid. The comment was clearly hyperbole so why did you feel the need to try to set yourself apart?
Love how he never mentions what streaming service, or never names anyone on the board of directors incase he gets called out on his bullsh*t. 😂😂
Him calling Matt Rife a TikTok comedian always makes me laugh
Matt Rife has positioned himself as one of the hottest comedians in the game right now. He's way beyond being a TikTok comedian at this point. No I don't mean "hot" because he's good looking either.
@acidwizard6528
lol
Girls will laugh at anything a hot guy says
Matt Rife is an example of the advertising being better than the product. His special was boring AF. Turned it off halfway through
Yea but lets be real His turning 18 and getting daddys life insurance def helped pay for this cosmetic surgery lol if you think puberty fixed his teeth and jaw line your on the watch list for tardation @@acidwizard6528
The scam isn't exclusive to comedy and alot of us have been talking about it for years, RIP Michael Brooks.

I normally don’t like jews but Michael was cool. RIP, gone too soon
@@NG-cf7zh weird flex but okay.
@@bibsp3556 maybe so, yeah. He wasn’t annoying/overbearing or obsessed with money and Zionism. He was actually a fair guy from what I could tell.
@@NG-cf7zh he seemed to be a top bloke. I know there's a stereotype but I don't really know any like that. So I dunno, maybe don't take it out on Jews in general. Maybe just be against those particular things. As Michael would say, be ruthless with institutions, but be kind to one another.
The craziest thing is that with the exception of Matt Rife. Most of these guys put FAR MORE attention into podcasting, which is their main source of revenue. It’s not like Andrew Schultz, or Tom Segura had a legion of fans for the first 15+ years they’ve been doing comedy. They have tens of thousands of daily podcast listeners of YMH and “Flagrant” who go see their live shows. Segura has fallen out of love with comedy in the last few years.
today i learned that andrew shulz is not brendan shaub. didnt know they were two "different" people
I laughed so hard when his special got released for free after he told ppl “ buy otherwise it will be Lost forever”
PURE BAIT lmao
I feel scammed because it wasn't "lost forever " but his annoying, unfunny, ego driven grift will go on and on.
He had to, it was being released from countless other channels. He may as well make the money from his work no?
I got the bait and paid for his special, I truly regret it now. I would never listen to any of his content ever again!
It's like saying movie theaters are a scam cuz it'll be on Netflix later. It was 10 bucks and it was actually funny. If it sucked ya it's a scam but it it's good whatever 10 bucks for my family to watch and no adds own it forever. Not a scam and no netflix execs touch it
I hate how common it is for goombas to shill betting websites. Particularly when its done as shamelessly as Schultz. It's basically an offer to have your money taken for nothing and/or tempt gambling addiction. Its disgustingly common and it seems no one else makes enough noise about it.
Few of coworkers are on some of those scumbags. Lol.
Pretty sure John Oliver (or some similar political comedy commentator) did a pretty thorough discussion on it and how terrible and predatory it is.
It’s so gross and especially how preachy some of these guys will get about unhealthy food, drugs, even porno like OF. Never the slightest criticism of sports betting though even though it probably ruins just as many lives just because it props up all their shitty podcasts.
I feel the same way about RUclipsrs pushing 3rd party free financial apps that can “help organize your finances”. You’re just giving them all of your sensitive info who knows wtf they will do with it

Bro. That ad read…? That was fucking hilarious. No way 😂
Whoa. I didn't follow any of this. He really scammed everyone. Sold it directly to the consumer, probably made a few million then put it on RUclips for free and made a couple mill more.
That’s capitalism.
It was $10 bucks to watch at first, and im pretty sure everyone who paid enjoyed the special. Putting it on youtube 2 weeks later so I can watch it again with friends was even better.
I think its weird how many people are concerned with how much money these comedians make. Comedy is about the jokes, why tf do you care about the business?
4 years ago if you told me all these podcaster comedians will become punching bags from their own fanbase, I woulda thought you were crazy. I knew that popularity would inevitably decline, but the backlash is wild to watch
Yeah I'm kinda hooked on it right now
@@furleysbrain100% hooked, it’s hilarious. In the end they have all the money they need, it doesn’t hurt them and they have to face being a douche canoe. Tom Segura thinks he’s Top Dog himself now which is laughable. Shultz looks like Hitlers cousin with his dumb hair and he’s an AWFUL podcast host. Bert…Ari (whatever)…I can’t even remember the rest. Their all complete caricatures of themselves. I was a YMH fan cause of the funny videos and strange / interesting guests….I dumped all their shit, all these dudes podcasts long ago and I watch their content through this channel or 2lazy2try. The new comedy podcasts.
I wouldn’t have believed ALL, but if you said it in 2019 about Rogan and Schulz specifically I’d be like “sounds right”
and their downfall tastes so sweet
As long as Burr, Gervais, Louis and Rock are safe from the barrage. They’re still churning out solid material, while tryna stay relatively humble and keep it about the comedy
That ad read in the middle of the special is precisely what I would do if I were making fun of this current group of podcast comics. They’re supposed to be funny yet don’t realize the absurdity of it.
I hear you on all that, but have you tried a ZYN??
@@Dan0TheMano getting money from Philip Morris, and not disclosing it as an advertisement 😮
Dude I just found your channel and I’m so thankful it’s like a breath of fresh air. All these podcasters have truly lost touch with reality and are so unrelatable and unlikable now and I feel like you gave all of us who share the same sentiment a voice. I didn’t even realize how bad some of these guys are until I watched some of your videos. You and 2lazy2try are doing the lords work.

Hold up, you guys expect people outside your tax bracket to be relatable??? Lol
He couldn't get a streaming deal, so this fabricated story provides him an excuse as to why he is not succeeding in the way that his peers are.
and he acted like he invited sliced bread with selling his own special - meanwhile CK did that already for half a decade. His whole crew is such a bunch of brain dead uneducated idi*ts, it's unbearable, every discussion they have hurts. And the gambling ad is prove what a greedy prick that guy is.
I always laugh when comedians say that no one knows what comedy is except for the comedians. I hate to inform you, but comedy is what the market thinks it is at the time; just like any other product.
He’s selling out all over the world 😂 so the market spoke right?
@@SwoleakhulTheBlind look up "nonsequitur"
@@SwoleakhulTheBlinduntil that market grows up or he loses popularity! Look what happened to Dane Cook. Most people going to his shows have no idea they are only laughing because they are in the mood to laugh. Wait until they get a little bit older and see how wack he is
Andrew totally created that story. He puts it out on RUclips right after he got the money he wanted.
I was thinking similar but different. This is just my brain, but it seems like 2 weeks wasn't enough to get the money he wanted, so he extended to a month. Then after a month he still hadn't sold enough downloads, so he brokered the deal with the gambling sponsor and posted it on RUclips.
The whole "if you say I'm punching down that means you're bigoted coz you're imagining yourself higher than everyone else" is such disingenuous bullshit. We can all identify groups that are marginalised, powerless, and outright bullied by societies, laws, and bigots. Recognising that makes you informed, not bigoted.
I just found your channel a couple days ago. I'm hooked, my dude! I love the way you break things down with a fresh and honest perspective; all with a great sense of humor! This is my newest Sub! 🥂
Awesome! Thanks dude, glad to have you 🙏🏻
Nobody talks more about themselves and smell their own farts as much as Andrew and Bert.
Couldn’t even secure a Tubi deal
Wait, he seriously put an ad in the middle of his set? lol -- Where are the real artists? I can't imagine a musician pausing to spew some dumb ass ad in the middle of a song... really wish we could get rid of these "celebrities" and get back to people who genuinely love the craft.
This channel is gold 😂 So glad I discovered this
Let's be honest. Did anyone have any doubts that Mona Lisa would be released for free on RUclips? Schulz would be an excellent crypto scammer. Great piece BTW. Bravo pod Cringe.
Wouldn’t be surprised if he was already peddling some crypto somewhere. He has the personality type and desire for easy money
The moment I saw his special was on RUclips for FREE, I knew he had this setup with YT since the very beginning. Absolutely this was the plan all along and wanted to squeeze as much as he could from his fans. What a fake dude.
Can't believe people would pay for it to begin with 😂
Schulz pry turned down a Netflix offer because he felt he was worth more. Went elsewhere, got asked to make changes, didn't like it, went back to Netflix and they said no so he had to put it out himself.
Andrew Schulz is mid
The most wild part about the whole “canceled” thing is no one has ever been truly cancelled. A lot of celebrities, athletes and politicians do genuinely heinous shit and are still rich. These comedians say unfunny edgelord shit and expect people to all meat ride them.
Academics have been
Yeah so I never bought the scam of "being cancelled", and I'm proud to be consistent there, but millions of other people did so it doesn't really matter what I thought. And between that and the boredom of the pandemic, plus these bad, lazy social media algorithms, I think that really explains all these guys' success much better than things like talent or merit for sure.
@@johnludwig8291True but that’s different from “cancellation” that’s blackballing
The only mainstream entertainer that's ever been cancelled is R. Kelly and that's only because he went to prison.

He wants to prove he can be like Shane, get cancelled and come back stronger so he keeps trying to be “controversial.”
Yeah his version of being canceled is studio executives and producers giving notes for cuts.
Something as old as Hollywood
his cancellation was more like exile. I don't think any streamer would pick him up knowing how disrespectful his comedy is.

In 2014 Greg Proops made his comedy special “Live at Musso and Franks” available for purchase exclusively through his website. I bought it soon after it became available. It’s hilarious. At the time, Greg had already been doing his Smartest Man in the World podcast for quite a few years. As has been mentioned many times by others in these comments, Louis CK had been making specials available via his website as well. I’m sure there are others I’m missing who had been doing it also. Schultz is a pioneer in his own mind.

No one can say you’re lying , if you never actually name who you had a deal with.
It’s evil genius type sht. He got lowballed by streamers. So he concocted a narrative that would make it seem like he was doing this PPV out integrity, not because he realized he could scam more money this way, than any amount he would’ve received via a streaming deal.

Never take your foot off of the comedy industry neck. Andrew doesn’t leave a penny on the floor. From his comment baiting haircut to his “art changing” special.

He was so happy to tell me about how he snagged a table at the cellar for Andrew Schultz, that upcoming Wednesday..

Ppl enjoy different things than you that’s crazy😮
Your friend is soft in the head
You are basically saying, "People like something even though i decided its bad, how is this possible??"
Do you understand how crazy you sound? If people enjoy eating a food that you dont like, do you also find that insane? Are their tastebuds "wrong"?
This channel is great because documenting the industry is entertaining and i think its important to analyze stuff like this.
But the commenters? You guys are the worst. You aren't adding value, yall are just bitter and toxic. Revolving your life around something you hate. Treating your opinions like they are so valuable and definitive.
Some guy who works at a wal greens saying comedians who sell out theatres across the country that they are bad at their job.
....btw, i dont even like Andrew. I just also realise my opinions are not that important.
People who constantly talk about how they're going to get canceled have made it out into the real world too.
Shulz: "so yeah as a white guy, I'm making fun of every group, mexicans, women, somalians" remember back just a few weeks ago and dating all the way back through 2016 when we called that identity politics and would slam people for doing it? I do.
@@p.chuckmoralesesquire3965you can joke and comment on race without it being “identity politics”.
“Identity Politics” is a specific academic term with a particular perspective regarding “racial injustice”….
Really getting canceled is when they freeze your bank accounts and deplatform you across all platforms like what happened to the Canadian truckers who were protesting the vax mandates. Comedians pretend lefty twitter accounts saying negative things about them is them getting canceled.
Muslims though?
Yea I guess not
I think he fabricated the streaming story. A board of directors is not watching and choosing specific content. Companies don’t work that way
I think nobody bought his special which is why he extended it and when still nobody bought his special he decided to release it free on RUclips with the ad in the middle so he could get some kind of money back from it.
Schulz with the comedy rug-pull. Comedy’s first and last NFT
The "cancellation" that comedians talk about is a myth. Having your humor critiqued doesn't mean you're "cancelled." Shit, it just means someone disagrees with your interpretation of comedy. Lenny Bruce was never crying about "being cancelled." Neither did Richard Pryor, and those cats said some intense shit. Art is subject to criticism. If comedy is an art then it should be open to criticism. And that criticism should not be censored.
No no no, you don't get to rewrite history now just cause your favorite youtuber denounced cancellation as a real thing so now you think it's trendy to do the same. Are you naive? What do you say ALL THE ACTORS THAT GOT CANNED FOR SHARING THE "wrong politcal opinion on IG or twitter", Star wars, the flash, most shows on the C.W. only because there's a vocal mob on social media that feels entitled. Past comedians didn't have social media to worry about, there weren't mobs of voices that would congregate to get someone taken off the air over jokes not barring religous organizations that had the power to cancel people off of television, which btw I''m sure you also don't agree with. The fact that Dave Chapelle didn't get bopped by netflix is lucky and it's only because companies like netflixt also understand how cancellation can affect profits.Dave Chapelle makes them money, had it been anyone else and it would'v been a different story.
The scale of cancelation has been dumbed down to prop up the AI written blog websites that have 3 paragraph articles with the page 90% covered with ads.
Back in the day you'd see a headline that, "Paula Deen Canceled for saying the NWord"
As evidence the buzzfeed and huffpost articles wrote about hashtags with 500,000 retweets saying she should be fired.
But now a comedian will say, I got Canceled and the proof will be a screen shot of 1 tweet with 13 retweets.
Your missing the point, no one said you can't critisize. ITS THE CALLING FOR COMPANIES TO REMOVE COMEDIANS FROM DOING COMEDY. Btw your right ART/COMEDY IS SUBJECTIVE WHICH IS EXACTLY WHY ITS IDIOTIC TO SUGGEST THAT THEY BE CENSORED. In same way that we disagree with the religous orgs that cancelled people back in the day, it's no different when twitter mobs do it. Does the terms cancelled get overused especially now yes, BUT ITS NOT AN EXAGGERATION.
@@TheRed02151 they are over exaggerating the number of people demanding companies not play them.
Andrew is saying netflix wanted to do edits and give producer notes.
That's as old as Hollywood.
@@TheRed02151 lol, snowflake alert
Louis took the chance to release it by himself and said that he had no idea if it would work or not. He said that he would find out if it worked or not the day it released and that he knew he might be burning bridges. Huge risk for him that paid of because he had the vision and courage to try it. Now these guys are talking like they invented it.
The self importance of these people is mind boggling
the cringe level on that gambling ad really makes this channel super relevant
Shultz actually believes he's changing the comedy scene by doing things other comics have already done while telling completely average jokes. Stav got a Netflix special over him and I garauntee Stav was just as offensive and dirty as Shultz. Shultz is quickly becoming the most self delusional, cringe narcissist in the scene.
@@papertiger9845
I've been a cumboy since the show started. I understand how huge the show was and how much Stavs laugh track added to the podcast. My point is that Stav isn't nearly as well known as Schultz yet he still got a Netflix special before him. I like Stav and my intention wasn't to belittle his talent, "but the breakfast"
@@papertiger9845
Also, please don't act like Schultz is the reason Stav got a Netflix special. Dozens of stand up comedians put out YT specials that got millions of views. Netflix is worth hundreds of billions and they couldn't care less about Schultz YT success. I understand that you're probably a fan and Schultz is a funny guy but lets stop with this Schultz changed the game BS because it's fantasy land delusional thinking
I was a huge fan of Schulz. To the point where I was telling everyone I knew to watch his stuff. When he announced his "limited" "one time only" special I knew I needed to buy it! I invited a few friends over and cooked for everyone and watched as the timer counted down on his special. It was like a UFC main event to us. The special was great and I was happy to have supported Andrew. Fast forward a couple weeks later and he announces that he will be making the special available AGAIN for purchase. So not as "limited" as I had thought. No biggie though, the mans gotta make his money! However, once he announced that it will be on RUclips for free that's when I lost all respect for him. To hype up the "scarcity" of a product only to release it not just TWICE (for purchase) but THREE times total, raking in the maximized amount of profit seemed disingenuous and straight up whack. The guy is a schemer. No longer a fan.
how can you repost all these clips and when I have 10 seconds of a Ne-Yo song playing on the radio in the background, I get a copyright claim, seconds after upload?
These guys won’t last, it’s a money grab and the 15 minutes is about over.
KEEP IT COMIN BRO❤
Got an idea for a video. You should dive into Matt Rifes recent "controversy". I think he made it all up. Nobody of any seriousness complained about the one joke but je talked about it nonstop and even went on Jordan Peterson talking about it. It was clearly a made up controversy so he could slide into the "adult comedy" crowd instead of tik tok. If you read the comments of the JP interview thousands of people were commenting they don't like his comedy but will forever support him to fight "cancel culture".
I thought this about Rifes situation as well. Even the few tweets of people tweeting at him upset that you can find, were accounts with little activity that had been freshly created. Even searching YT and Tik Tok I couldn’t find any videos of commentary from people that were upset, only videos of people covering the “controversy”. Weird.
It's the quintessential rightwing grift. Becomeva proxy to the Culture wars.
He definitely created the whole situation. I think he wanted to be on JRE 😂
100% manufactured controversy. He and JP kept saying he was cancelled, which I guess means criticized by some nobodies.
Seriously. It’s so cringe. Rife should literally be cancelled for attempting to fake a canceling.
i love your videos, keep it up brother
Thanks dude! Glad you like them 🙏🏻
Brother you opened my eyes to this bs ,since I've started watching your videos I have this whole new perspective on all these comics,can't believe I just went along and never thought anything more about it.. 😅
This is an excellent video. Hadn't thought of it this way and you're totally right! Seeking the controversy and not the comedy.
I hardly ever see people complain about these edgy jokes or edgy comedians. Methinks it’s made up
That's how you sell a scam. Hype up that woke people are going after you and chuds will buy your shit. Look at Daily Wire selling chocolate and beer with insane mark ups.
It's because Twitter isn't real life.
But people do complain. Unless you think that person charging dave chapelle was staged.
Unless you think colleges disinviting comedians is made up.
But, sure, _expose_ the comedy grift. I prefer it to "woke comedy".
@Bustaperizm Babydoll, like 1 or 2 colleges kindly being "no thank you" didn't lead them to bankruptcy. The comedians built an edgelord empire worth millions milking suckers like you.
Schulz probably had ad reads during his wedding
Why has gambling ads become so rampant with podcasts?! we need a video on this
Because they’ll sponsor anything and they pay well
@@PodcastCringe I dont even mean the ones you cover here on this channel, but Tigerbelly too
Consistently some of my favorite videos on RUclips 🔥 Love the channel brother
That’s awesome man, glad you like them 🙏🏻
You should check out Owen Benjamin's new "special" @@PodcastCringe
It’s wild how often comedians make some money and lose touch with their audience. At one point I found flagrant interesting to listen to, but it’s just a bunch a people clapping for themselves now
I have never met a fan of Andrew Shultz in person. Obviously they must exist but having worked at a comedy club in Boston for the last 30 years I speak with a lot of comedy fans and comedians. I have never been told by anyone that they are a fan of Andrew Shultz, like his comedy, think he’s funny, saw him live and enjoyed it, are planning on going to see him, or even their spouse Orr friend likes him, nothing like that. Ever. There are so many holes in his story it’s pathetic. Shultz either doesn’t have friends who will call out his bullshit or he thinks people are incredibly stupid and will believe whatever he says. The fact he says he could name the streaming service but the guy is nice and sometimes bosses need to be listened to. So they sold him back his special without any NDA’s?? He is just choosing not to name the service. Absolute bullshit lies. Shultz is a remarkably unimaginative talent. I have never heard a unique thought or a thoughtful perspective on a topic from him. He really is a no talent that people are comfortable with because they know he is safe. He is a modern day Buddy Hackett. His career apogee would be a guest starring spot on CHIPS or Love Boat
That British guy who made Akaash angry cos he wasn't interested in him will always be my favorite moment in comedy.
Unlike these hacks Katt Williams had actual recipes and calls out all the BS without repercussion. Thats how independent he truly is and people are now understanding the power in truth. Not to mention all the decades of cutting his teeth in the game and then became a legend in the process for his hustle, never took a short cut or had anything handed to him. Most importantly he never tried to convince us of his greatness but paid homage to the actual legends.
It’s amazing to see these guys transform from hilarious, relatable and admirable to egomaniacal and insufferable is truly baffling to me in so many ways. It feels like it just came out of nowhere.
really wild compared to 6 8 years ago lol
Most of these comedians are the bottom of the barrel in terms of actual productive worth to society. When you give someone of such low value the potential to become a multi-millionaire, they will pull out every grift and scam technique available.
Chill out, this dude was never funny
“Relatable” what the fuck does that matter
What exactly is admirable about any these guys beyond their own personal success? What’s relatable beyond the fact they’re all just hanging out with their friends getting fucked up? And y’know it is a natural place to “do comedy” and release “content” but it does not make good stand-up comedians and definitely doesn’t make good stand-up specials.
I actually think Christina P has suffered the most from this professionally even if it’s been objectively good for her career and probably even mental health… there’s something actually very specifically and profoundly un-relatable about building a very niche fanbase podcasting… Kyle Kinane brought it up in his post-Covid special how he needs “the checks and balances of a human interaction” to consistently produce good material rather than “little weird manifestos”
One of the most obnoxious characteristics all of these “hype” comedians share is that the scam is never-ending. They’re successful businessmen, but they are NOT funny or innovative. They’re not pushing any boundaries, they’re not exploring any new material or shining light on anything particularly dark or taboo. They all shill the same generic pablum and they really think they’re pioneers of the new counter-culture. I don’t watch any of these schmucks on their own shows, but I’m very aware of who they are. These hacks never met a sponsor they didn’t like, and “edginess” isn’t funny in a vacuum. Material will ALWAYS be king.
Congrats on your channel blowing up, bro!
This is such my favorite new channel I’ve found in a while. Keep up the killer work, man!!
you're my new favorite channel to watch/listen to, thank you for these videos!
Wow, thank you dude 🙏🏻
omg an AD read during a stand up special is insanity
One thing that I will always agree with Joe Rogan is ,when he said that when a person does a podcast consistently their true self will be known . This has happened with Tom, Bert , and Andrew .
I'm glad I'm not the only one who has noticed all the offense comedy it's just getting old hat and not funny. Check out Nick Mullen that dude is good at not being intentionally offensive and has smart takes on everything
Nick is better than any of the Rogan hacks, thank em Bapa.
@@jaredwatts4140 Shane Gillis has mentioned Nick or the Adam Friedland show a few times to Joe but he just snubs him and moves the conversation along. You can tell Joe hates comics he can't control or is responsible for the success of which is most East Coast/foreign comics. He sits in a huff refusing to make eye contact or acknowledge them or act as a contrarian when in an interviews with Ricky Gervais, Luis J Gomez (because he insulted Schaub) and others.
@@Ray_D_Tutto Yeah I'd be surprised if Joe has seen Nicks standup but 30 mins of any cumtown episode is funnier than anything Rogan has ever said in his entire life.
The scam context is really good. I can't stop thinking about a comment saying you should pursue this angle within the podcast realm. I agree with it, you have the capacity to do deep dives and investigative videos in the podcast realm. And this is a valuable differentiator.
Good idea. Could start with his own material and take it from there.
This is insane. Louis was releasing his specials independently years before he was “canceled”. Gaffigan, Aziz, and Rob Delaney all followed and released specials independently at that time as well. Schultz has done nothing new at all. But yeah, that ad break in the special was cringe.
That add read with the fake background. 😂
His Maniscalco impression is so good because he don't realize he's doing it. What a psychopath
“Own” my exclusive content for only $15 and then place an absolute sucker bet that will have strings attached even if it hits. Great one Schulzy, a true man of the people.
10:07 Apu on the left is someone I cannot stand more than anyone and I picked this all up in 10 seconds.
You bought a comedy special. Not the bragging rights to be the only one to see it ever for the rest of time.
