I've been mates with Tommy's son for 25 years, he's a great dude, my mother was being bullied by our neighbours at one point so he showed up and made a show of hanging out with her in the front garden, the neighbours were so confused they all left her the fuck alone.
Amazing podcast. It's really refreshing to see these comedians kinda being themselves, like not having the pressure to "be funny". On most comedians podcasts' I feel people watch them to laugh, but here people just want to listen and maybe learn something new about this big world. Good job Ari!
You know that story of the father and the mother who lost their kids hits home hard! I’m Somali and my god our parents especially our mothers are built different. Their resilience is next to none and that’s due to the unshakeable faith in Allah. Our problems are mainly of our own, poor leadership, tribal Divisions, social unrest but external forces sowing problems in the country. I asked everybody to research Somali history prior to the civil war and how beautiful it was.
Great to see Tommy coming across the pond! He has one of the most popular talk shows in Ireland as well as being a part of one of best podcast (RIP to THL). His comedy has always been great, but listening to him and his stories is always a treat!
The funny part is that they see you guys as being more lost in the sense that you are morally/spiritually in chaos. They might be more poor now, but the culture gives you a sense of gratitude and appreciation. it was honestly a privilege to grow up with the Somali mindset around those areas. No amount of resources will make you happy if you are not able to see clearly.
Great stuff, Tommy, as an Irishman I've been in and out of Africa since Chad in 2010, then Western Sahara, Mali and since retiring from the Irish Army in 2016, I've worked for four years in the Central African Republic with the UN and am now currently in South Sudan. Your comments on the stoicism of Africans in the middle of horrific assaults certainly rings true, unfortunately.
Love this, love Tommy , love the realism and window in. Also feel comfortable listening to Tommys insights on it because he lived it in our (Irish) shoes if that makes sense. Just growing up listening to him it gives it some credibility for me in my race/culture. Not at all meant to take away from anything but as a person I can relate to in Ireland , I can understand and appreciate his perspective. Again it’s not meant to be a definitive outlook. Just something in my “clan” I can relate to in a number of ways. I love it and love Tommy. Hope to see him on jre
Really? I found this brutally slow and in parts very self-important. He is definitely talented and I like him in other stuff I've seen, but this was a tough one for me. "What did you eat?" "I don't remember." "Where did you go?" "I can't even remember the names." I see why Ari had him, because he's a big get, and on paper Tommy Tiernan in Somalia seems great, but this was not it.
@@AlexSoutheyMusic I mean it's a little self important, but like he was saying he's acting as a mouth piece for people who don't have one. He's there to fill that role. Just him talking about the famines devastation and the people he met really had me
Ari, we need another episode of you getting interviewed by Colum. Also, next time you're on Story Warz, you should use your executive powers to make the theme travel stories.
Great episode. I've seen some of the things Tommy describes while travelling the world myself, and it's those kind of things that really do make you appreciate life and your family. I've seen & met Tommy a few times, but it's was definitely interesting to hear him open up like this. Keep up the great work Ari. Jew is still the best stand-up special out there.
Ari the Billy Strings fan! In my town of 2,000, Billy played the town square a couple times. He hit every festival, dive bar, and retirement sewing circle in Michigan mastering his craft.
Ari I generally listen to podcasts in the morning, I work from home. I can't listen to yours passively like I usually do because they're too incredible and interesting! I always try but i end up having to save them for when I can really pay attention .
As someone who's been all over the place for 15 years+ - when Ari Said I had 2 pairs of jeans I went: Me too - then he continued to say for the whole trip - and I'm like - total
Last week, I caught up with all the released episodes and had to re-listen to a few of them while I waited for this episode. Now, I get to feel the same excitement and anticipation for this podcast as I do Kill Tony and Story Warz. Thanks Ari. You have big, droopy balls.
Jesus christ, should have seen my face when I saw the thumbnail, massive fan of both of you guys, Tommy more so cause I have literally grown up with his comedy, comedy king of Ireland!!
Rogan didn't even know that this was it's own separate podcast and Ari's only podcast that he's doing. He thought Ari had like 3 separate podcasts going at the same time
I can't remember where we leave our votes or if its too late but I vote for Harland Williams as guest and travel stories of the year, his poem at the end made me cry and I could see how surprised and moved you were as well, because like many other people, I thought he was going to do a bit but quickly realized he was being 💯 sincere! Duncan Trussel and Robert Kelly are also kind of tied for first, for me. I've quite honestly loved and enjoyed each episode almost equally, you also do a great job about asking the type of questions that lead to incredible stories, sometimes even a random comment or joke can spark a memory about their story they may not have thought to share if it hadn't been said. I fucking loved this episode too, Tommy T is the shit! Damn, its so hard to decide but fuckin A man I'm gonna go with my gur and vote Harland! Mush love my good sir! Enjoy your time away traveling! 😎🙏✌️🍄💚🤜🤛
@@youbetrippinpod Yeah but are you so sure your American audience will understand you? I mean I have only lived in the US for 3 years but also I have seen Americans thinking British Stirling is a measurement of weight.
Have tickets for Tommy in vicar street in Dublin, possibly one of the best rooms for comedy in Ireland. If you have a chance to go see him then go , but watch a few of his specials first to get a feel for things 😂
ARI!!!❤you. TOMMY TIERNAN❤❤❤you!!!! I watched the whole episode. In my typical Irish/Scottish/Native American way I found it uplifting 😂!! But Ari, two years away from me??? I understand the need to leave America, I would if I could. I cannot abide the thought. Who will cheer me? Two legends and two fantastic human beings! Thank you
The main reason for Muslims to say insha'Allah is to recognise that an event in the future will happen only if God wills it. So when I say “I'll go to the dentist this morning before work, insha'Allah,” I am acknowledging that what I intend to do cannot be fully guaranteed. They know the famine is political. Its not like somalia was always like this, in the 70s-80s, somalis was called rhe perl of indian Ocean, it was beautiful...war can destroy any nation...look at gaza, iraq and Syria now
I’m Irish, live in Tanzania, been to Nairobi many times. It does my feckin head in these ngo’s, charities and diplomatic agencies that totally scaremonger and misrepresent the places they operate in. Walking around central Nairobi in the middle of the day is totally safe. The damage they do to the image of Africa obliterates any good they do. And the people here are very much aware of this fact which causes more hostility than any lingering grudges about colonialism. East Africa is great and very tourist friendly. Better visit and have the holiday of a lifetime than donate to the self serving aid industry. Much more of your money will remain here.
Fresh off finishing Your story wars victory episode moving onto the new goods, Where ya going after the farewell tour? Gonna make sure I pretend to miss you!
This is my favourite series ever! You should try and get the hardest geezer Russ Cook on! He just ran the length of Africa over a year (amazing series on youtube). Great guy and I bet he's got some incredible stories to tell!
Around the 56min mark ( again an Irish person here) and not to put words in tommys mouth , but we love………. Flipping love the food, and also love making food go a long way. But I don’t think anyone does that better that these guys. I say these guys because I don’t want to say it’s one over the other, but we I Ireland do it with coddle, stew , tripe ,which/black pudding. I’m. It claiming out grub is better but I think it comes from the same heart and place. Am I miles off??!!!!!
I gotta be hinest w u i didnt really like your comedy before. But this; this is excellent its at the intersection of comedy and maintaining the curiosity and adventurous spirit that makes life worth living
Also the Somali government is fighting AlShab. Its a huge project. Their stronghold is in the South as people in the Northern region fought to push them out.

His got the gift of the gab
Good observation lol
Alternate time line on some D. Trussel type shi
Shane will call him gay
No doubt 🤣.
Tommy is one of the GOATs of comedy. I’m not over exaggerating, go see him if you can.
dont know why this podcast isnt more popular its so interesting
I've been mates with Tommy's son for 25 years, he's a great dude, my mother was being bullied by our neighbours at one point so he showed up and made a show of hanging out with her in the front garden, the neighbours were so confused they all left her the fuck alone.
That's class bud I'm not surprised to hear of him helping others. I've always loved Tommy he is some man. 🇮🇪
Tommy would be like that ❤❤
Amazing podcast. It's really refreshing to see these comedians kinda being themselves, like not having the pressure to "be funny". On most comedians podcasts' I feel people watch them to laugh, but here people just want to listen and maybe learn something new about this big world. Good job Ari!
comedians doing not comedy has always been my best and worst feature
Totally! You can tell ari is a world traveler he knows what 31 degrees celcius means!! 😂😂
@@youbetrippinpodyou know Tommy has a Guinness record for longest stand up session.
Tommy is the most gifted, talented, Irish storyteller/comedian ever !!!
You know that story of the father and the mother who lost their kids hits home hard! I’m
Somali and my god our parents especially our mothers are built different. Their resilience is next to none and that’s due to the unshakeable faith in Allah. Our problems are mainly of our own, poor leadership, tribal
Divisions, social unrest but external forces sowing problems in the country. I asked everybody to research Somali history prior to the civil war and how beautiful it was.
i met a lad same age as me who's mother helped him escape Mogadishu during black hawk down.....his name was shakur
Tommy is an absolute legend this side of the water. His stand up is fantastic, but his performance in Father Ted is 👌
Poor Father Kevin
@mrgalactus7264 SHAFT!
I got enough religion from him out of this pod to last a lifetime. No ty
@williamRE Do you enjoy Shane Gillis?
This is my new favorite podcast, out of ALL of the others, Ari you did good.
Agreed. Well done Ari
Nice. Thank you. A lot of podcasters are pedos.
@@youbetrippinpodI knew it!
Absolutely! These tales are really addictive AND mature.
Too many pods with ppl just chewing the fat...
@@youbetrippinpodhow many times did you take the JewAir flight to Epstein Island?
no fucking way .... TOMMY !!! cant believe we have these 2 legends
He rules!
Came here for Ari’s usual comedy pod, was hit with a dose of appreciation for my dull life. Great episode!
Please stop voting.
No worries Mr ‘Merica, I don’t live in your neck of the woods
@@aSmidgeandahalf Please, wherever in the world you are, please, stop voting.
So I take it you didn’t enjoy the episode?
Tommy is a natural storyteller. The perfect guy to bump into at a pub.
Have you ever been to Ireland ? They are nearly all natural storytellers
This was really interesting to listen to as a Somali. Great job Ari!
You have internet?
@@youbetrippinpod One of the fastest in Africa and 5G Tommy have some respect.
@@youbetrippinpodof course they have internet in San Francisco!!
@@Lefrogeski what Somalia are in San Francisco? 😂 just talking out of your rear end😂
@@youbetrippinpod😂😂. I'm from Somalia I love your work.
Great to see Tommy coming across the pond! He has one of the most popular talk shows in Ireland as well as being a part of one of best podcast (RIP to THL). His comedy has always been great, but listening to him and his stories is always a treat!
Still not over THL being finished. 😢
What a great reminder that there’s places in the world where people have real problems
Right? Things are great here
The funny part is that they see you guys as being more lost in the sense that you are morally/spiritually in chaos. They might be more poor now, but the culture gives you a sense of gratitude and appreciation. it was honestly a privilege to grow up with the Somali mindset around those areas. No amount of resources will make you happy if you are not able to see clearly.
Finally someone Ari wont cut off
Hahahaha
What an unbelievable pod guest! A true comedy legend
Love starting my Monday w you be tripping
Great stuff, Tommy, as an Irishman I've been in and out of Africa since Chad in 2010, then Western Sahara, Mali and since retiring from the Irish Army in 2016, I've worked for four years in the Central African Republic with the UN and am now currently in South Sudan. Your comments on the stoicism of Africans in the middle of horrific assaults certainly rings true, unfortunately.
Tommy represents the craic and the divilment of Ireland, all wrapped in a warm glow, like a lovely whiskey.
Craic and divilment. Spot on. Couldn't have said it better myself. I totally know what those words mean 😂 Godammit I love being a dumb American
And woke horse shit. How else do you get a job at the state propagandists?
Nice way to put it, slantie
I hope Tommy’s tour goes well. I loved the Bill Burr pod as well. Just goes to show that Tommy is respected by the international greats of comedy.
Loving seeing Tommy do the rounds of all my favourite and friends of my favourite comedians. Ari being in the latter category
Love this, love Tommy , love the realism and window in. Also feel comfortable listening to Tommys insights on it because he lived it in our (Irish) shoes if that makes sense.

K’naan talks about Somalian language being very poetically competitive in nature it’s really cool
Nation of bards. Check out Hadraawi he’s a great representation of Somali literature
omg idk how I missed this!?!?! tommy is the best!
Tommy is a gripping storyteller holy shit

His stand up is sensational. Literally one of the best stand ups ever. Go see him if you get the chance.
@@AlexSoutheyMusic I mean it's a little self important, but like he was saying he's acting as a mouth piece for people who don't have one. He's there to fill that role. Just him talking about the famines devastation and the people he met really had me
Straight up. Must be the Irish DNA.
@@AlexSoutheyMusic Alex you’re a musician the most self-centred of them all you’re the only person that thinks what do you think here?
Ari, we need another episode of you getting interviewed by Colum. Also, next time you're on Story Warz, you should use your executive powers to make the theme travel stories.
Oh man. Good idea
Such an uderappreciated pocast! You get everything from comedic gold to a dose of reality such as this episode!
love the podcast, thanks so much
Best episode yet by FAR
Great episode. I've seen some of the things Tommy describes while travelling the world myself, and it's those kind of things that really do make you appreciate life and your family. I've seen & met Tommy a few times, but it's was definitely interesting to hear him open up like this. Keep up the great work Ari. Jew is still the best stand-up special out there.
is Ari American?...
This is a fantastic interview and I genuinely hope it’s the intro to jre
I'd listen to Tommy talking for days.
We are pampered in 1st World countries.
Tommy is a fantastic storyteller
Thank you Ari !!
👍👍👍❤️
Legend Tommy!☘💚🤍🧡
Ari the Billy Strings fan! In my town of 2,000, Billy played the town square a couple times. He hit every festival, dive bar, and retirement sewing circle in Michigan mastering his craft.
one of my top 5 podcasts
maybe top 3 love the stories love all the episodes keep them coming. amazing
Let’s go Ari for having Tommy on. Two great souls.
Ari I generally listen to podcasts in the morning, I work from home. I can't listen to yours passively like I usually do because they're too incredible and interesting! I always try but i end up having to save them for when I can really pay attention .
I do the same thing with hookers.
@@youbetrippinpodthat doesn't make sense!
Love the storytelling style he has!
Great stuff!! Tommy is a national treasure 🇮🇪
Couldn’t click faster. 10/10 episode
Tommy is great. I've loved him since Something Mental.
Well done Tomas ❤, don't take any crap, we know you never do, ❤❤❤

I learn a little bit about Somalia every day from a customer who is from there when he comes in. Interesting sounding place.
I sing the theme song in my head constantly 😂❤
We're gonna talk about TRAVEL TODAY! 😂
I sing it out loud all the time 😆
I always sing along with it 😂
So glad you didn't listen to Rogan about this podcast..it makes my Monday commute much more enjoyable
Rogan didn't even know that this was it's own separate podcast and Ari's only podcast that he's doing. He thought Ari had like 3 separate podcasts going at the same time
Yay My hero and this Tommy guy... should be fun!
Thanks - loved this episode!
TOMMY TIERNAN ON THE POD! IRELAND ON TOP ☘️☘️🇮🇪🇮🇪🍻🍻
Best laugh on a guest yet
Great podcast, one tip, try not to get distracted by the laptop and just engage in the great conversations !
Ah this will be great craic lads. The wild meath man is in
I remember trocaire boxes back in the 80s in dublin Ireland that was meant for Somalia
Great podcast 🤘

Cant wait to see Tommy in Calgary. Been a fan since the mid 90s
25:36 before he mentions potatoes 😂
Busy day at work yesterday, Today I can actually listen to this 😁
Wow, first time I hear an American using Celsius without mentioning it.
I travel a lot
As an American I like Celsius better it makes more sense. 0° shits frozen 100° shits boiling. Just seems more Intuitive 🤷♂️
@@youbetrippinpod Yeah but are you so sure your American audience will understand you? I mean I have only lived in the US for 3 years but also I have seen Americans thinking British Stirling is a measurement of weight.

Not everyone thinks the same bro
do you believe in free will ?....
I can't stop thinking about how he said "poncified"
I’m Irish, live in Tanzania, been to Nairobi many times. It does my feckin head in these ngo’s, charities and diplomatic agencies that totally scaremonger and misrepresent the places they operate in.

"What did you eat?"
"I don't remember, it was all fried, chicken or fish or something."
This guy ate people.
Ari: Fried like KFC ? 😂 idk why that made me chuckle lol
Im somali we do not eat people. Stop this fear. Heard about bloody hatians eating dogs, dont you start this as well😂
Great episode. Great guest.
GWAAAAN OUR TOMMY 👏👏☘
Fresh off finishing Your story wars victory episode moving onto the new goods, Where ya going after the farewell tour? Gonna make sure I pretend to miss you!
My favorite comedian listens to my favorite musician… cool af
I'm guessing he'll end up on Spo Jogans eventually. Go on Tommy 😄
Come on Ari, lose the laptop, listen to your guests.
Yes, it will be really cool to hear another interesting person not get a word in for 4 hours.
52:10 when Ari gets Tommy's Iman joke...dead on the floor. More Tommy!!
This is my favourite series ever! You should try and get the hardest geezer Russ Cook on! He just ran the length of Africa over a year (amazing series on youtube). Great guy and I bet he's got some incredible stories to tell!
Great episode
The story of the man scared of birds made me crack up. The story was funny, but Ari killed me at the end lol.
Aris body langauge is so funny. Its that tall n lanky stuff. 😂😂😂
How early does Ari get up?
Around the 56min mark ( again an Irish person here) and not to put words in tommys mouth , but we love………. Flipping love the food, and also love making food go a long way. But I don’t think anyone does that better that these guys. I say these guys because I don’t want to say it’s one over the other, but we I Ireland do it with coddle, stew , tripe ,which/black pudding. I’m. It claiming out grub is better but I think it comes from the same heart and place.
Am I miles off??!!!!!
I gotta be hinest w u i didnt really like your comedy before. But this; this is excellent its at the intersection of comedy and maintaining the curiosity and adventurous spirit that makes life worth living
I love Tommy Tiernan. I'd love to take his portrait some time! Tommy! Get in touch! 👏
Love to see you do a walkabout
Ari if you ever do a fan episode. I’ve been somewhere almost no one has ever been to. Kwajalein it’s apart of the Marshall Islands.
Bucky was bidding for the podcast? It explains why Tommy is on there 😂
Nice one Ari new fan from Ireland
It’s called being numb ! B come so used to heartbreak that you just shut down
Also the Somali government is fighting AlShab. Its a huge project. Their stronghold is in the South as people in the Northern region fought to push them out.
Tommy is a fucking legend over
here in Ireland
Wow sounds like a beautiful vacation, cant wait to visit somalia myself! 😊❤😂
Depends who’s hosting you tbh
Love the podcast,but this one made feel some kinda way... Made me appreciate my cushy life more than i did before.
Thanks Ari!!! And Tommy!!
What a cool guy
Man fantastic emotional episode.
Best comedian in the 🌎🌎🌍
"Is it anything like Ireland?"
Great question.
Give it a few years
@@paddioche potty the climate of Ireland won’t change in a few years it’s not gonna look like a desert
I don't know how well Tommy is known outside of Ireland but trust me here, he's the GOAT.
Carlin, Lenny Bruce and Pryor all rolled into one.
1:07:25 I thought the little travel tip graphic was gonna say "have a stick for beating bad dogs"
