Cancelling the tour has definitely made it worse, if the guy had just came out the next night and apologised and just kept going it would’ve been forgotten, it was a risky joke but shouldn’t have his career ended
Wishing a president dead after a recent assassination attempt is not a joke - it's a manchild playing in the Hollywood sandpit thinking he can get away with saying something vile like that.
Australian politicians were demanding they be deported immediately. If that happened to me in a foreign country (their tour was of AU and NZ) I would want to leave asap.
It has to be said, Hollywood career aside, Jack Black was doing stuff for the Biden campaign. The last thing Biden needs, is a person he shared a stage with and joked around with, is his band mate making jokes about political a-wording his opponent.
the fact he's doing stuff for the biden campaign is an embarassment too though. as a very left-wing person, obviously trump creates just as much chaos, but anyone still trying to justify the sham that is the US election, while they're helping commit a genocide, is complicit. i know people might try to think that's an overreaction, but genuinely think about it critically. also, lol at biden's team being against "political violence", when the US has taken part and still takes part in more political violence than any other country in the world. it only matters when it's US politicians though - literally a supremacist viewpoint that biden's team has. they are genuinely taking part in propaganda for a campaign that is responsible for the lowest estimate being nearly 10% of the gaza population killed. that's not counting the total destruction of land, the permanently disabled, the mental heatlh/trauma and the fact it's still not over and there could be way more killed. this is all under biden, it is a bi-partisan policy. they are pretending they care to end it, but in actions, give them weapons and vote against any genuine UN resolution/threaten sanctions on the ICJ for following below bare minimum of international law. trump is evil too, but biden's team is more competent in a dangerous way for anyone that lives outside of the US. trump tried to coup 2 latin american countries and failed cause his team is such a mess. he creates a lot of enemies, which makes it harder for them to successfully force allies like the EU on being complicit in war crimes cause they despise him that much. both are the same to anyone outside the US, just different PR strategies. there's an article i read that analysed biden and that far-right dutch politician on the similarity of their policies - biden had a LOT in common with the far-right in western europe regarding policies. that's why it's just all PR. people need to stop even trying to get anywhere with US "democracy", which has proven that the public has no influence on policies. jack black is defending someone who is a war criminal and trying to improve his image. we're just numb to the fact that's the case when it's western leaders, but it's true. artists who do propaganda for these kind of politicians are complete sell-outs, which includes jack black.
It makes sense he wants to talk about it tbh. This is the kind of jokes he makes, just like he says, not on stage. Instead, on stream or on twitter. (maggie thatcher jokes etc)
Yeah but we gotta talk about why not. Can't make the joke about Trump but Trump can make the same joke about other people (on stage!) so why? I think a lot of people ought to think about it. It isn't the right wing who 'cancel' people -- they cry and complain about it and they demand it, cynically and hypocritically of course, but it's the liberals who give in to the very unserious pressure.
@@moodycxntConservatives promote liberalism but they’re actually authoritarians at their core. They just use libertarianism and its principles such as free speech as a veil for their true beliefs. It’s why their rhetoric is rarely congruent with their actions e.g. promote and use free speech but silence the speech of their opponents and support bodily autonomy but want to criminalise same sex relations and ban abortion.
And someone tried to kill Trump. Maybe that tells you something? How are Tenacious D meant to go out on stage again after Kyle said that? How would insurers justify covering the events?
@@moodycxnt yeah but we can't stoop down to that level just because they (the right) do it, it's actually one of the reasons why they are so bad as they try and tear down the institutions but then if they were to destroy it, it's only afterwards they would realise what actual functions it serves in society. Sometimes we need to be kept in check a bit.
The president is not better than me nor you, Jack Black is a sellout, what was the point of getting a stage if you are going to be scared the big man stops the flow of cash.
just to put things into perspective: trump didn't get cancelled for all the terrible things he's done, the lives he has destroyed, the chaos he has caused. but kyle gass gets cancelled for making a harmless joke. jack black is a superstar who doesn't need to work again for the rest of his life, i doubt that the same could be said for kyle gass who just lost his entire career because he had the nerve to poke fun at the future dictator of a failing banana republic.
Oh please do.tell of all The lives Trump ruined and all.of the terrible things he has done. When i say do tell, I mean do tell without pushing the media lies. There no perspective to be had in any case. They incited violence againsr the last and possible next president. No one canceled Jack Black. He cancelled himself by making kt impossible to insure his concerts.
he endorsed Biden like a week ago then this happened. They probably got a call from the White House to shut it down. I doubt jack black is actually mad at Kyle, or Kyle cares he had to do this
jack black laughed at kyle like will smith laughed at chris rock. then, upon reflection decided it must have been someone else that laughed and felt outraged.
They made the right move to save Jack from potentially losing his acting career. Making Kyle the fall guy works because nobody really cares about getting Kyle Gass cancelled. They'll take 6-12 months off and then be back to touring again like nothing ever happened.
I doubt they’ll start touring again. Before any of this they have been steadily declining with the quality of their content they produce. It happens to almost everyone though, there’s no shame in it. Hopefully Kyle saved for retirement.
True. At least people know Kyles name now. Although in a few months they'll be back to "Yeah Jack Blacks friend. The bald one who said that thing about Trump"
Ahahaaa Then Hollywood Jack got a message that Kage was in trouble They send Kage away cause he had gone completely insane So Hollywood Jack jumped upon a jetplane and flew all that night through the rain To be with his friend to see what remained of his brain Then Hollywood Jack told the doctors: You got to retrieve him!

It's the insurance for the venues. The insurance company basically dictates how much security the venue needs given the nature of the event. Big controversy means more chances for something bad to happen, which means more chances for the insurance company to lose money. So, they tell the venue that they need to up security (like, a lot) and the venue can't afford to do it. Everyone who I watch that has put on tours in the past said essentially the same thing Limmy did here.
Kyle apologized, but by then everyone was already in full damage control mode. Band plans indefinitely on hold, Kyle's agent dropped him, he's finished. The wording of his "joke" was very poorly chosen.
Extra context Limmy didn't seem to know that just added to even more reason to do what Jack Black did, he'd recently been campaigning ardently for Joe Biden and his campaign, this connection affects the Biden campaign too so I'm sure they had a word with Jack Black over distancing himself from it so it doesn't impact their campaign, let alone his career.
Aye because some politician im campaigning for comes before my best friend of 25 years. Biden would be getting telt where tae gan if he gave me an ultimatum like that.
@@Fractalchemystical He has said way worse, for example "If she [Hilary] gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do folks. Although the second amendment people, maybe there is." that is calling for political violence from a man who was running for president
I doubt it. They probably had a meeting to come up with a strategy for least damage. Put band on hold. Say sorry. Have a break. Then triumphant make up. Weave it into stage routine as rock n roll cliche.
I assume they spoke about this differently behind the scenes, but Jack has more to lose with his career, and he has more of a family audience overall. They will do a reunion in a year and have a song about it probably.
I can see that Jack Black has a lot of potential income to lose, but also that if he did lose that income he'd be perfectly fine, he's got the money and wealth to never have to work a day in his life ever again if he wanted, and still have multiple millions to leave to his kids... While if Kyle lost the Tenacious D gigs, he'd be kinda fucked, so I'd honestly say, Kyle has more to lose. Cause if kyle lost his TD income from this, he'd have to find something else to do, he couldn't just retire, unless he wanted to lower his quality of living substantially. Either way I find it near impossible to sympathise with rich people anyway, they live COMPLETELY different lives from normal folk, I care more about cashiers or janitors who get fired for having public opinions online, just like Kyles, than I do for either of them really, cause if you're working those jobs you NEED the money, while both JB and KG only WANT the money.
@@roarbertbearatheon8565 So you haven't heard about the nutters on the anti-woke side going around harassing and getting normal workers fired for having their own opinions. Maybe get up to date on what the extremists are doing, rather than immediately deny something because it is absurd, guess what for extremists the absurd is the mundane.
@@roarbertbearatheon8565 Remember, many American states' labour laws mean you can be fired for no reason, they just invent a reason afterward, it's well known that performance reviews are only used when you want to fire someone.
On the very same token, it's weird how the ones that usually hate offensive jokes are so excited over a joke about another attempt on a presidential candidate's life. This kind of hypocrisy goes both ways.
Trump had a good chuckle at Pelosi's husband nearly dying and said the 2nd ammendment people should 'take care' of Clinton. It's not ok for normal people to make jokes about people dying but a President can? They are the real snowflakes. No politics please.
How could he have gotten around this? At the moment of the birthday wish, when asked what he wanted, he could have said "it's already happened" and people would have assumed he meant the show and his life but he and Jack would have known what he REALLY meant. Anyways, this is probably the most human take of it I've heard yet. Hope your weekends a good 'un.😄
Limmy has masively toned down his trolling online now he streams full time. His income is tied to Twitch and he knows how easy it is to get banned so I guess he understands where Jack Black is coming from.
The executive producers of Kung Fu Panda 6 are looking for an edgier, harder line on the failed assassination of Trump. Thank you for your interest though. Please keep in touch.
They were booked to play Rock the Vote gigs, so that kind of comment would be dredged up. Plus, would you feel safe touring when you'll attract the gun loopers to take revenge?
I hope none of your longtime friends stand between you and Kung Fu Panda 6. People used to applaud having guts and sticking by your friends. Maybe he says "you gotta apologize" but dumping on a guy who *did* apologize and acting like it was some ulterior motive to screw Jack Black is a really scummy insinuation. And because of that it's okay that Jack Black kicks his longtime friend to the curb instantly? Nothing to say about him? Nah he's rich gotta protect his money, the most important thing.
always remember how Jack Black had some kind of reputation as a stoner, then went on that getting doug with high show had had the most epic whitey ever...
I was a fan from Day 1, well minus the HBO days. Jack and Kyle were my average Joe, Rock n roll heroes!!!! Sad that Jack sold out for conservatives feelings and establishment politics.
I don't think it's about whether Jack Black approves of it or not, so much as that Kyle did it without any warning or discussion beforehand. Jack must have felt stabbed in the back that he was immediately thrust into a big controversy and expected to say _something_ and either way somebody's gonna have it out for him.
I'm guessing they never had to approve jokes before and were free to speak their own thoughts. Jack black obviously got wind it was a step too far that would affect him career wise.
was it intended as a joke though? or was it a brief detour from the general comedic context of the show, where he was delivering actual political opinions in a slightly off-the-cuff way? i don't think people are saying "that's an inappropriate joke", they're saying "you shouldn't be so casual with your actual political opinions during a comedy show, when those political opinions are so egregious".
I think it was a stupid thing he said without thinking or meaning it at all. But then upon reflection realised some nut case might think he really means it and go and buy a gun to please them.
It was around before Hollywood adopted it. It's called politically correct for a reason. It sort of works in politics at least, but with art it just makes things bland and gentrified.
The right in the US have been cancelling folk since the McCarthyite blacklisting and purges of the 50s. They've now perversely positioned themselves as the champions of free speech in the last decade. See how "free speech" these types are once their favourite billionaire or apartheid regime gets criticised.
Seems pretty cut and dried that Kyle was in the wrong here and dumped Jack in it. Didn't have much choice after dropping that nonsense on stage with a much higher profile band mate.
it was stage managed. Jack wanted out. Kyle will still get enough retirement money anyway. the fans wont give them hassle about why.. lets get back together and Kyle looks like he died on his sword, with tens of millions in the bank.
limmy seems to have missed the point that Jack Black already laughed about it ON stage... Cannae pretend he didnae through retrospectively condoning his mate.
really appreciate the depth of commitment to, and emotional stakes of, and unfolding-deepening narrative in, the role-play here. ... dark, impressive stuff. ...
Faking apologies will become habitual to the point that you're using it on it loved ones & not learning from it. I'm on benefits, nevermind a multi-millionaire, but there's no amount of money or career prospects that'd allow me to dump my mate of 30 years over a joke we both agree with the sentiments of and laughed at (and i've experienced money & career before anyone starts on the jealous scrounger shite) Sod PR & the next quid, man. This line of thinking (born from the system we live in) will see us all sociopaths. That said, I've watched this twice. I laughed, i cried, i decomposed, & got up again - i was entertained by an entertaining guy. I'm not offering the rest of the audience out for a fight. The thought process was flawed & made me throw up in my mouth a bit, so I wanted to say something (i dont care about the 2 millionaires falling out anyway 🤦♂️)🤷♂️

Cause if kyle lost his TD income from this, he'd have to find something else to do, he couldn't just retire, unless he wanted to lower his quality of living substantially.
Either way I find it near impossible to sympathise with rich people anyway, they live COMPLETELY different lives from normal folk, I care more about cashiers or janitors who get fired for having public opinions online, just like Kyles, than I do for either of them really, cause if you're working those jobs you NEED the money, while both JB and KG only WANT the money.
No janitor is being fired for his tweets rofl
@@roarbertbearatheon8565 So you haven't heard about the nutters on the anti-woke side going around harassing and getting normal workers fired for having their own opinions.
Maybe get up to date on what the extremists are doing, rather than immediately deny something because it is absurd, guess what for extremists the absurd is the mundane.
@@roarbertbearatheon8565 Remember, many American states' labour laws mean you can be fired for no reason, they just invent a reason afterward, it's well known that performance reviews are only used when you want to fire someone.
weird how the ones who claim you can’t make jokes anymore because of “woke” are so up in arms about a joke
@@iSupplanter not like trans people have the highest rate of k word attempts or anything
On the very same token, it's weird how the ones that usually hate offensive jokes are so excited over a joke about another attempt on a presidential candidate's life. This kind of hypocrisy goes both ways.
Trump had a good chuckle at Pelosi's husband nearly dying and said the 2nd ammendment people should 'take care' of Clinton. It's not ok for normal people to make jokes about people dying but a President can? They are the real snowflakes.
No politics please.

How could he have gotten around this? At the moment of the birthday wish, when asked what he wanted, he could have said "it's already happened" and people would have assumed he meant the show and his life but he and Jack would have known what he REALLY meant. Anyways, this is probably the most human take of it I've heard yet. Hope your weekends a good 'un.😄
Limmy has masively toned down his trolling online now he streams full time. His income is tied to Twitch and he knows how easy it is to get banned so I guess he understands where Jack Black is coming from.
Its the fans who had already bought tickets to the tour dates already booked.

He's dead, Kyle
Limmys word is law
Jack Black behaves like such a rebel because he can afford too...a real rebel would have stood by his friend.
It was a funny joke
It was cringe theatre for the braindead masses. you will never get it.
@@Fractalchemysticalsnowflake 😮
He wasn’t joking
Did anyone think Black was going to risk being cancelled? 😆
It's Jack Black, don't just say "Black" as if that's what he's known as and we've always been calling him "Black".
@@WendingWind eh? 😆
I'll call him whatever I like.
@@lesblack8996 You've got balls, kid. I respect that.
Both of Tenacious D have always been a couple of smooth brains whenever they're talking about anything but music.
The executive producers of Kung Fu Panda 6 are looking for an edgier, harder line on the failed assassination of Trump. Thank you for your interest though. Please keep in touch.
They were booked to play Rock the Vote gigs, so that kind of comment would be dredged up. Plus, would you feel safe touring when you'll attract the gun loopers to take revenge?
I hope none of your longtime friends stand between you and Kung Fu Panda 6. People used to applaud having guts and sticking by your friends. Maybe he says "you gotta apologize" but dumping on a guy who *did* apologize and acting like it was some ulterior motive to screw Jack Black is a really scummy insinuation. And because of that it's okay that Jack Black kicks his longtime friend to the curb instantly? Nothing to say about him? Nah he's rich gotta protect his money, the most important thing.
always remember how Jack Black had some kind of reputation as a stoner, then went on that getting doug with high show had had the most epic whitey ever...
11:09 He even laughs at the things he WOULD have done in fictional scenarios...
I was a fan from Day 1, well minus the HBO days. Jack and Kyle were my average Joe, Rock n roll heroes!!!! Sad that Jack sold out for conservatives feelings and establishment politics.
I don't think it's about whether Jack Black approves of it or not, so much as that Kyle did it without any warning or discussion beforehand. Jack must have felt stabbed in the back that he was immediately thrust into a big controversy and expected to say _something_ and either way somebody's gonna have it out for him.
I'm guessing they never had to approve jokes before and were free to speak their own thoughts. Jack black obviously got wind it was a step too far that would affect him career wise.
Americans are so soft lol.
was it intended as a joke though? or was it a brief detour from the general comedic context of the show, where he was delivering actual political opinions in a slightly off-the-cuff way? i don't think people are saying "that's an inappropriate joke", they're saying "you shouldn't be so casual with your actual political opinions during a comedy show, when those political opinions are so egregious".
I think it was a stupid thing he said without thinking or meaning it at all. But then upon reflection realised some nut case might think he really means it and go and buy a gun to please them.
Do people in Hollywood hate Trump with a violent passion?
Many do.
11:55 im actually crying tears
Bigger Than Jesus moment. JB failed.
Hollywood created this culture. Ya reap what ya sow
It was around before Hollywood adopted it. It's called politically correct for a reason. It sort of works in politics at least, but with art it just makes things bland and gentrified.
The right in the US have been cancelling folk since the McCarthyite blacklisting and purges of the 50s.
They've now perversely positioned themselves as the champions of free speech in the last decade.
See how "free speech" these types are once their favourite billionaire or apartheid regime gets criticised.

In reality no-one cares about what jokes anyone makes, it's all a massive game.
the morral off the storey is dont make nastey jokes
definitely don't make them in front of massive crowds of people when you're a big personality with brand image to keep up with
Jack black is about as funny as a burning orphanage
Getting like PMQs this channel.
Madness to me people are trying to justify his comments, but not surprising anymore.
Think cancelling the tour was a bit far though.
Money is all they understand
Seems pretty cut and dried that Kyle was in the wrong here and dumped Jack in it. Didn't have much choice after dropping that nonsense on stage with a much higher profile band mate.
Tenacious D will be back in 2028. Jack was probably more worried about getting shot.
"This isnae jovial by the way"
it was stage managed. Jack wanted out. Kyle will still get enough retirement money anyway. the fans wont give them hassle about why.. lets get back together and Kyle looks like he died on his sword, with tens of millions in the bank.
limmy seems to have missed the point that Jack Black already laughed about it ON stage... Cannae pretend he didnae through retrospectively condoning his mate.
I don't really know what's gone on, but I was fully engrossed in that drama.
Last week Kyle quit the band
Now we're back together, uh
Misunderstanding, didn't understand
It doesn't matter, now we're back together again

I don't know why, but this is the funniest comment I've read here.
Once the insurance companies find out they pull out straight away
Faking apologies will become habitual to the point that you're using it on it loved ones & not learning from it.
I'm on benefits, nevermind a multi-millionaire, but there's no amount of money or career prospects that'd allow me to dump my mate of 30 years over a joke we both agree with the sentiments of and laughed at (and i've experienced money & career before anyone starts on the jealous scrounger shite)
Sod PR & the next quid, man. This line of thinking (born from the system we live in) will see us all sociopaths.
That said, I've watched this twice. I laughed, i cried, i decomposed, & got up again - i was entertained by an entertaining guy. I'm not offering the rest of the audience out for a fight. The thought process was flawed & made me throw up in my mouth a bit, so I wanted to say something (i dont care about the 2 millionaires falling out anyway 🤦♂️)🤷♂️
He was on tour here in Australia and the reaction here is “bruh who cares”. Americans are just soft lol.
