As a FIFO worker in Mines in WA and NT I’d like to commend Louis C.K for his well researched and astonishingly accredited description of my life, reduced to one sentence lol
Should’ve worked harder in school….
LOL FIFO workers are generally the highest paid workers in Australia.
@@turbostyler cause its shit
@@youwebz Mining jobs are highly sought after bro. A lot of those jobs start at 160k per year
@@haydenlawrie7130 i get more than that doing Monday to Friday 8 hour days in a ‘mining town’ that doesn’t even have a mine.
Holy crap. Kudos to Louis for his very accurate knowledge of Australia.
You obviously don’t though
Meanwhile Joe is like “wow that’s amaaaaaaazing”
@@Danoz_die_wreckt I mean, for a foreigner who's probably not spent all that much time in Australia, it's really not a bad take.
@@Danoz_die_wreckt i live here and i can neither prove nor disprove what he is saying lol
@@shamicentertainment1262 so do I and Perth only survived as a colony due to the convicts brought out from England. It was close to failure due to lack of infrastructure that was massively boosted by con labor. If u r interested look into Fremantle prison. As for fifo workers a couple of places I worked fifo had the most incredible camps in Australia that no one outside the employees could dream of some camps where made to show of investment opportunities towealthy investors . Talking disgustingly wealthy as you can imagine. I had an incredible fifo career. Not saying it’s all like that. Not trying to be mean but hot many aussies now our own history and it’s sad. Especially the way it’s being erased by woke uninformed people who judge our pioneers by modern standards. (Not you mate) now you got me started you bastard😉
I never thought in my life I would hear Louis CK say FIFO. Long live Perth
It is surreal.
This exactly. Its such a specific but banal part of WA life, and its odd to realise that its odd to others - but even more odd that people like Louis are aware of it and talking about it on JRE.
And yeah, and parrots fly around 😄
@@trevorjalla He calls the lorries parrots 😅
@@nomadheros4663 Unless he's talking about 28s?
@@davespanksalot8413 The rainbow lorikeet infests WA. A local zoo let them escape years ago now its all you here when you're cruising around the city.
I love how Joe says shit like "Australians laugh at different things" and never expands on it lol
Couldnt offer a single example to back up his claim but millions of bros are convinced this guy is a genius.
@@danidejaneiro8378 that’s Joe rogan for you claiming a bunch of things whilst high that no one can prove
@@Alphoric - Joe Bogan Poocast
@@danidejaneiro8378 I don't know mate, I'm laughing at you right now seems Joe was right
@@josey6231 - ok incel bro lol
I’m from Perth and it’s crazy to hear someone from the states talk about “FIFO”. Also hilarious to hear a parrot referred to as a tropical creature 😂
Aussies truly take our wildlife for granted
@@randomdude4669 For sure. When I return to Sydney after going OS one of the first things I notice is how constant and how wide the variety of bird calls there are compared to other places.
so true aye 😂😂
We just have these rainbow birds booting around everywhere, loud as, in their hundreds and thousands. Occasionally i pause to look up and spare a thought for how cool that is!
Seems in general we have more trees even in built up areas, compared to the U.S
"...you're walking down the street and then a fucking parrot flies by...." LMAO😂😂
Was actually better than any Australian comedians jokes, levels to this shit, I’m Aussie but don’t find our comedians funny at all
@@Matt_Wilson01
Well the past few years, yeah. The pc ones are earbleading terrible. But we've had some funny fkers get up, depending what youre into, and rip a good laugh.
@swansong5960 every comedian in aus that seems to get a push is lgbtq for some reason. I wouldn't mind except they haven't seemed to actually be funny.
If it was spring a Magpie would have sorted him.😂😂😂
I mean no other country's have birds right? Right?
“Perth is south of India” like saying Chile is south of Canada 😂
And they call them the eastern states mainly because they are in the east. You cant fault Aussie logic.
Kudos to Louis for pronouncing Melbourne without the hard "BORN".
It was a nice try wasn't it? Suppressed but still just there.
The 1st time he said it wasn’t right, still had that Born, 2nd time was spot on.
He must of realised and thought - sht, I better say it again.
It's melb-n.
Gey it right.
Second time was almost spot on: “Melb-un”
people encourage Americans to say Mel "bin" which sounds weird, and is just forcing the Aussie accent on others. If they wanted to pronounce it properly, it would be Mel "burn" imo.
When I was in australia chickens kept flying out of bins in the middle of the city.
haha, were you in Brisbane? There's a story behind this.... it's something that lots of Aussies will know about, but maybe not many outside Aus.
Ahh Bin-Chickens... the scourge of Sydney
@@GlennSyndallius Sunshine Coast, it was very amusing, one even joined me at the table!
Bin chickens!!! Haha
I edumacated my American husband on this Aussie stuff
So many face palms but he loves the joint
Especially Cairns 🥰🇦🇺🌴
😂😂😂😂😂
I’m from western Australia and holy shit just his knowledge of the miners on FIFO alone is crazy!
I don't want to be negative, but he probably did some research or just talked to people. It's honestly not that amazing - if you travel anywhere overseas you'll learn heaps just asking people questions
Not sure about sleeping next to the hole in a ground bit though. Camps I’ve stayed at are like resorts
@@dlb4988 really like resorts? I’ve been on mine sites and stayed in camps- in QLD and NSW not WA, and they were all just little shipping container size Dongas for rooms, and you’d go to a camp kitchen in a building like a high school cafeteria.
Not exactly sleeping next to the hole in the ground but not far from it
@@joshchapman4753 the big guys over here have really invested in the camps over the last 5 years. Definitely still some s***holes (mainly smaller and less important sites) but they’ve really had to invest in the camps to keep people. Too much work and not enough workers over here so they’ve had to up their game!
Relax mate he read the inflight magazine and found it interesting, he didn’t pop in to Armadale or something
2:02 “I mean Miners, not Minors… Miners. You understand? People who work in mines…”
Louis missed a chance to do his hand job joke.
a grown man who works at the mine
Never give up - never surrender.
Are you sure he wasn't talking about the Noisy Miners who fly in and fly out?
Can you believe, they don't even live in the mines like everywhere that isn't Australia, they come in for work leave and come back. Remarkable idea the Australians have come up with.
You could tell Joe was trying to start the typical stereotype jokes but kudos to louis for being one of the few American comics that actually took the time to find out about us.
It's funny how Australians never change an American says something nice about us and oh my god we can't give them enough praise
@@James-kv6kb Cos when the sh!t goes down, we need America.
@@kane4013 What to mop up after everyone else has done all the hard work and take all the credit ? Tell me one war they've one without everybody doing the hard work first
After that respectful yet hilarious description of Perth he will be forever welcome here. He actually took notice of us.
Lucky you even got him
Nobody bothers going to that shithole full of ferals we call Perth
My impression expressed succinctly.
Jesus- have some self free respect!
I think Perth and Adelaide are sister cities in the fact that we both get ignored by the convicts in the eastern states lol no one knows anything about us so when someone mentions something we are pleased
Hells yeah, welcome back any time, he is.
I'm Australian and Louis CK is my favourite comic. The guys hilarious!
Me too.. Ah whoops those words don't go together for some reason
@@guyonthecouch136 lol
Lol get some taste.
The guy isn't funny.
British comedy is much better
Could fooled me mate. Your profile pic and name don’t look Aussie to me
@@dcmastermindfirst9418 British comedy is great, but so was C.K.
Louis is so curious and enthusiastic about different kinds of people from all over the world. You can see how this line of thinking makes his comedy so unique and universally appreciated
great observation mate
Louis Loves People, Art, History, Culture. He admires the World in general, in earnest, from his Heart. That's how he connects universally. We're all capable of it 💞🌎
People don’t realise that only 180,000 convicts were sent to Australia, and the last convicts that were sent there from England arrived in 1868. Over half of the total number of convicts, 90,000 were sent to Tasmania alone. Today Australia is 27 million people. 13 million of them arrived in the country by plane as migrants since 1975. Let that sink in.
It blows my mind that America doesn't know about free settlers in Australia. We're not all convicts...
@@mattellis4270 Tell that to the NSW Police
More convicts were sent to America, but we dont need to know about that....
@@mattellis4270 Yeh and to add, it really fucks me off that its in an overall negative context. Therefore, "we're better".
the weird part to this is... weren't most of America's original settlers also ex-convicts from England? The reason they started sending convicts to Aus was because America and Canada were full ! England was like "uh, where else can we send them? Oh, there's that big dry hot chunk of land down south, let's send em there"
As an Australian I think this Louis CK guy is pretty funny. Good luck to him!
I’m expecting big things from him.
We have faith he'll make something of himself one day
@@ThiefKingofLegend He just needs more 'exposure'
Not a fan of his work but as a person he's pretty cool. Intelligent and doesn't talk out of his arse, the clip was impressive as ( =
@@michaeljaye8776 he's been around a looooong time.
I’d love to hear an entire discussion from Louis on his experiences and reflections on Australia. I’ve lived in every state and our country offers such geographical diversity. He has such a fantastic way of putting things from an ‘outsider’ perspective which I’m sure anyone even remotely interested in Oz would appreciate.
Which place has the least chinese and islanders.... whats what I want
@@plasmapanasonic4741The area I live is all white for miles, but you sound like a C U Next Tuesday so I'm not telling!
@@plasmapanasonic4741
Tassie possibly. Although plenty of country towns around the place are "mostly" Anglo.
You ought to have other reasons than just that to settle yourself down.
You know Louis CK is a decent bloke that actually went to Australia and learned about the people and culture and wasn't an arrogant tool just from the fact he didn't say Melboouuuurrrnnn.
melBOURNE identity.
As an American living in Australia for 5 years now the cities look and feel very American. American brands, restaurant chains etc everywhere. Australians are not “wild” like Joe says, they are way more reserved than Americans, for instance, look at their bus stops Australians form perfect lines to wait for the bus whereas in American cities it’s just a chaotic mosh pit waiting for the bus. More reserved but that’s the older crowd. Aussie millennials are almost exactly like American millennials with a few minor variances. You really need to live in an Australian small town to experience what Aussies are really like.
@@philjudd3473 100% correct.
100% correct as well.
We have a a lot of respect for eachother. We will be polite if you are polite
We see eachother as equals here
And if you talk up be ready for a response
And about the Australians not being wild. Mate
The most crazy people I know are Aussies
😅
Right up there with the Russians I'd say
I wouldn't say we form perfect lines when waiting for a bus
But we do form reconizable lines
Lived here for 20 years. Australia is being torn apart by forced Diversity and the last 3 years have seen huge waves of Indians arrive changing it even more. US Government prints money. Aussie government prints people to keep the housing bubble going. It will end in tears the likes of no one can imagine. I have dual citizenship for a reason. Good luck
I think the main difference is Aussies are more aligned to a British sense of humour. Good comics from anywhere will still get respect and laughs/applause, we love a good laugh! but watch any Aus/Brit comedian vs. and American one, and there is a world of difference.
Could you please elaborate and perhaps give one specific example of how Australian humor is different…?
@@danidejaneiro8378 There are far better better descriptions than mine but essentially American humor is based on the set up and immediate punchline, repeated over and over whereas British, Aussy, Canadian humor is the story arch and funny bits along the way, pushing the comedy nugget along the path.
Oh, and no one but Americans find wedding cake in the face funny.
@@danidejaneiro8378 We don't necessarily give a crap about US politics?
@@chadjcrase - you must have never watched the news or tv at all.
@@danidejaneiro8378 I defer to Karl. It's really well said.
Cheers.
As an Aussie CK is a legend, he gets it and I am very impressed by his knowledge of our country.
Umm what knowledge I’m not suprised he said u get there and u think it’s America a typical American hasn’t been outside there own country and when they travel they think every country is like them that’s why he said that if they do travel a American doesn’t even have a passport
I could be wrong, but he seems like the kind of guy who's actually interested in learning about the places he performs in. It probably helps his comedy, tbh! Like Bill Bailey... he spent quite a bit of time here and he can actually do jokes about the stereotypes of each city! Adelaide, Melb, Syd, Brissy Perth etc etc.
I saw Louis in Perth. He was loved by the whole audience
Iconic Australian comedians, Kevin bloody Wilson and Rodney Rude.
Saw Louis live in Brisbane, I cried with laughter it has been that long. Thankyou sir
same i was there too, late last year? side splittingly funny. my indian gf hated it hahahhahhahah
I missed the show completley man, i had no idea he was coming to Bris but i got to see the mother fucken goat CHAPPELLE so that kinda made up for it
@@avocadoisdelicious yeh late last yr, the gay sperm joke at the end had me in stiches.
LCK a parrots flys by 🤣🤣🤣 you had me in stitches bro
Your comment made me laugh more than what LCK said… lol 🦜
He's right though, parrots are absolutely EVERYWHERE in Australia to the point they're incredibly annoying
I have about 30 parrots living near my house, Everytime they fly around over the house squawking really loudly I always tell my daughters to hide because the dragons are back.. they are that loud and annoying. This is the cockatooes though. Have had red parrots in the yard.. but they are very rare.
Hey Louis and Joe. I'm a Perthon and I'm a FIFO mine worker, so I thought I'd clear some things up... . First of all, Perth or more acurately, Freemantle actually was founded as a convict colony. The gold and Iron mines didn't start up here until long after the convict settlements. Yes, we are covered in iron dust all day if you're up in the Pilbara (Pil-brah) or maybe gold dust if you're working down South in Kalgoorlie (Kal-goo-lee). The roster I'm on is only week on week off and its $150k with bonuses. Not bad for a bloke that left school at 16. Louis is correct about there being nothing around us... Perth is the most isolated city with more than a million people, on earth (2.1).
Thank you, the whole time i lived in perth and I constantly asked what the term is for someone who is from perth was, no one could tell me.
@@agnz bogan
@@agnz Im from Perth, literally never heard PERTHON haha, think this guys taking the piss. Sandgropers is what the older generation used to call people from Perth but its kind of fallen off. itS based on an insect that burrows into the ground aka a miner like OP here.
@@ImpatientTurtle yeah i literally the title that contains the cities name like Londoner, Wellingtonian or Sydneysider.
I mean this ones a shit one by all means, but the first one iv heard.
I would've gone perthite or perthian personally but found it interesting it didn't exist in my experience.
They're definitely reading what you've just written, bloke
I love the culture of WA. I grew up partly in a little coastal suburb where its not unusual for electricans to live next to doctors and share a beer with each other on the weekends. Its one of the few places where trades are considered as important as university degrees and if your university educated daughter marries a heavy diesel machanic he'll probaby earn more money than she ever will . It wasnt until i left WA for Asia as a teen that I discovered this was extremely unusual. Western Australia is one of the most beautiful and diverse places places in the world. Hes right it is it an wierd place.
Rockingham?
The whole place is boring, the isolation factor has created a very strange culture all in of itself. Loui's description of it being different to Sydney and Melbourne is bang on. WA people love it but those of us know, this place isnt for everyone unless you love doing absolutely nothing.
@@rebelofbabylon3091 Anywhere that's not Sydney CBD in Sydney is pretty dead too, tbh. There's too much risk in some druggo knifing you even if you go shopping late for there to much of a night life (hobby meet ups, bars, whatever, just getting there isn't worth the risk). It's a shame, because I'd love a night bird cafe, but it just can't happen because of the criminals.
@@LantanaLiz yeah Sydney is PvP enabled lol
I think that is still quite similar accross Australia - the cultural veneration of tradies coupled with a mild sort of tall poppy syndrome for university educated professionals. Diesel mechanics will still earn more in WA on average though compared to everywhere else.
"Its a weird culture" said the American... 😂
Damn Louis actually did his research
For once too..🤣🤣
Can confirm that at Joe's standalone big show he did ahead of UFC 193 in Melbourne he killed it, crowd was loving him!
100% I was there. The crowd was 30 deep just waiting for the doors to open and not an empty seat in the place 👏🙌🙌
Im an Aussie and love Louis, i bought his 4th July movie off his website this year. So good 😊
I love that no one outside of australia has any idea on what australia is actually like hahaha
Joe always reminding Aussies we used to be convicts. Cheers mate.
We are just as much convicts as they are slave owners 🤣
It's like the one thing he knows about Australia and he constantly brings it up like it's the most mind blowing piece of trivia ever
Most Aussies aren’t though..some are sure.. but most.. no.
We have entire states like South Australia (Capital Adelaide) that was founded by free settlers. This convict thing annoys me because it doesn’t apply to the whole country.
As was USA before we took over
Love from Melbourne , Australia .
I was really expecting a bit on Bin Chickens lol.
Who could be in a comedy club in Melbourne and not know who Louis CK is?
People from Melbourne. If it was one of those dummies from the project they'd be going nuts. People from Melbourne are idiots.
Australia and Melbourne especially is full of woke people and woke comedy but still surprising that they wouldnt even know who he is
Yeah, gonna call bullshit on that one. Or there's just some really obscure detail that he left out, like he turned up at an RSL open mic night or something.
Lots of people he ain't all that
@@ykook7000 One of the GOATs of comedy
I’m watching this video from my bed in a FIFO camp.
I’m Australian and everyone I know loves Louis ck
I’m from Perth and he totally nailed what life is like here. Had many fifo boyfriends. We all belly laughed at his show at the arena though. We all love you louis 🤙
Sounds like you get nailed a lot
Jesus Christ...CK knows more about West Aus than the eastern states do. Am impressed
@Chris Pekel lol yeah just how many boyfriends of that specific occupation and why so many? Also did you go to see louis with all your ex boyfriends
@@frarfarf hahahahahaah
Yeah but we don't get $100,000
His show in Sydney was excellent
As an Australian( from Melbourne) I can’t believe people didn’t know Louis CK. I’ve been a fan for years
OK. So maybe they HAD heard of him? But then, but then …
I don't watch / see many American stand-up comedians...
The room that Louie is referring to is The Comic’s Lounge
@@philjudd3473Yeah nah our 'mainstream' comics are fucking horrid.
Yep, that’s a good description of parts of Australian culture and history to. Nice work
The Lefties in Melbourne may not have got your material, but Louis CK killed it here in Perth, he got a standing ovation at the end of his show.
Yeah, cause Louise CK is pure right wing.🙄
What CK just described is exactly what happened when I went to Sydney. I was walking down a hill and saw this weird bird and this enormous crazy plant and I realized this is a whole other world.
That's some good crack you're on
Australia has a huge amount of birds, I think most of the birds on this planet evolved here
@@chrispekel5709 I think I read that in a bird book that it was the singing/talking birds that first developed here
@@Haydsd yeah, there's heaps of them around my house. They are mental sometimes, it gets loud
You mean that in other countries, you aren't woken up at 6am with a million birds screeching at the top of their lungs? If you try sleeping after 5am you're screwed, there's no chance you will ever get to sleep.
The best ever explanation I have heard. Spot on
From Perth here.... well 3 hrs south. We know you guys and you are always welcome gentlemen.
As an Australian, Louis CK is easily one of the greatest comedians of all time, i can't imagine a bunch of aussies not laughing at one of his shows.
Edit: Could all the mainstream media brainwashed boomers please stop replying to this comment, thanks.
Fake Australian spotted, no one in this country can stand this seppo
Victorians.
Kenoath!!!
Could only happen in Melbourne.
That's the same Melbourne comedy outfit that's become so woke it cancelled Barry Humphries who was it's co-founder with Peter Cook. I can just picture the pink haired po-faced audience.
I don't know man. I'm Australian and I love Louis' specials. Love a bunch of American, British and Australian comics. Saw Tom Segura live last week and he killed. Deeply disappointed that I'm moving away two weeks before my favourite comic, Doug Stanhope, tours again.
Stanhope is excellent
Saw Segura live in Melbourne too. Excellent show
It surprised me how educated Louis is on our country
Almost like there's information out there or something
Wow, he talked to people. Who would have thought?
and it really isn’t that fkn difficult to have at least an inkling of interest about the country you’re touring in that pays you top
$$ just by asking a few measly questions ay-I reckon!
Literally a FIFO worker at work in Western Australia right now and was not expecting Louis CK to start talking about FIFO workers
Speaking as an Aussie living in Perth, he's spot on, completely. My brother is a FIFO worker. Pays well: he was able to buy a house.
Most Americans don’t see that as a massive accomplishment. Their housing market isn’t 1M for a tiny hovel.
@@SoBlissedOut Neither is Australias, we've open land everywhere and not many people. The average family home in Australia 4 bedrooms.
I just bought a 5-bedroom house with almost an acre of property for only 390K.
Australia has lots of opportunity if you want it. Fun fact, we're the only country on Earth with more Americans migrating here than vice versa.
@@dko-JackSkalington average house price is 800k, median salary is 65k. 70% of us live in major cities where a million bucks is more realistic. Try and tell me that's not fucked
His show at RAC Arena was brilliant! This guy could be dropped into the middle of the Amazon rainforest and make anyone crack up!
props to louis for being accurate and retaining that knowledge of Australia. its quite refreshing to see
I'm an Australian and was lucky enough to catch a Louis CK show in Sydney. It was really good. Great crowd. Everyone was on board.
As an Australian, my favourite aussie comic right now is aaron chen. I would recommend checking him out if you want to understand aussie humour, he epitomizes that quintessential Australian dry wit and sarcasm
Is that you Aaron?
Nah the goat for the last couple decades is for sure Carl Baron. He has the most “Australian” style humour too
Crazy he’s the biggest and best comedian here selling our arenas but most Americans haven’t heard of him before bc he doesn’t really tour overseas
@@sloppygoo
"G'Day"
"How's it going?
"Not bad"

Sorry, I never understood his humour.
Kitty Flanagan 🤣🥰🇦🇺
Aussie Wit is "Yeah nah". So "witty".
I'm an Aussie and I was smiling with appreciation through this entire description, so interesting to hear US folks perception of us.
Perth here, fan of Louie CK from the Opie and Anthony show days
"... they call them the Eastern states"
Yeah, we have cardinal directions in Australia, too.
Yes we all have cardinal directions. Pointless comment
Haha yeah like how could anyone possibly decipher the cryptic meaning behind calling states in the east as The Eastern States.
His point is that in Perth we lump everything east of us together as 'the Eastern States' because we think of ourselves as separate to, and distinct from, the rest of the country. We did once vote to secede, after all, and if it hadn't been for our voter rolls being hurriedly stacked with newly-arrived Easterners by the big gold mine operators of the day, our State never would have voted to join the Federation in the first place...
@@digbyskellington Err, are you absolutely sure it's not because, you know, there's more than one state and, well, they are on the East side of the joint? What the bloody hell else would you call them?! I had two kindys in two states and five primary schools in three states, I don't consider myself from being from any state in particular, and I call the states on the East the Eastern states, and I never wanted to secede from anybody.
Lived in Perth for 6 months as a kid in the 90's and "The Eastern States" was almost always used in a derogatory fashion, even a few teachers referred to me as an "Easterner" in a smart arse way.
Correction ! The only state in Australia that didn’t have convicts was South Australia. As anyone from Adelaide will tell you the state was founded in 1836 by free settlers. The city was laid out in a grid pattern, surrounded by parklands by soldier and surveyor Captain William Light. As for Western Australia they didn’t stop transportation until 1868.
Yeah go crom😊
Perth was founded by free settlers and then later took in convicts.

As an migrant from Argentina I have loved living in Australia since I arrived with my family in 1979... That's a long time ago!
Ask me about Australia and I will be happy to sing it's praises!
Hey that's a long flight over the pacific ocean! Yea my brother moved to Australia recently from the UK and he's loving it! He's hoping to stay out there for 3 years on a working visa. I'll be going to see him at some point too. 👍
@@jre-daily-updates actually back in the day (1979) when we migrated under the Australian Skilled Labour Programme it was cheaper for us to fly with (no longer) Canadian Pacific airlines.
We went Buenos Aires to Santiago (Chile), then Lima, Peru on a DC 10 plane. From Peru we flew to Vancouver (Canada) then Nandi, Fiji and finally Sydney... So yeah, a very long flight!
@@colorin81colorado That's not a long flight, that cruel & unusual punishment.
@@paulmaroon9720 hahahahaha, yeah we clocked 56hrs total flying hours but it was all worth it!
Oh! So you're a fake Australian! You just adopted a stronger flag and shed the weaker Argentinian flag, like a snake that sheds its skin!
I'm Australian and I love Louis CK, he is one of the greatest stand ups ever. Sadly Melbourne is pretty Woke now with Hannah Gadsby PC type humour being a thing, each to their own I guess. But I know I would much rather see Louis CK than Hannah Gadsby. Actually I would probably would prefer watching someone rub their face on a carrot grater over seeing Hannah Gadsby.
Not woke at all..just different. The word woke is funny when it's used to defend comedy..🤣
@@melsmithmel The sad thing is that woke comedy is more rhetoric lecturing, than actual comedy. As one of the ex SNL cast members said “It is like some weird, liberal Klan meet”. With shifts in the polarity of power those that use to mock and make satire of others becoming the ones that are now being made fun of, something which is intolerable to them. One rule for me, another rule for thee.

you blokes are a classic - bravo for working out the Australians
You know who’s been touring oz for 30+ years doing standup is is Henry Rollins.
I saw him at big day out when that was a festival, very cool
Louis is so knowledgeable about different cultures and has a really good memory.
Nah he had cue cards
Louis was amazing at the State Theatre in Sydney recently!!
Kudo to CK for his West Aus knowledge. Summed up Perth pretty much spot on.
Our humour's a mix of British and Irish.
As a migrant to Australia, he really hit the nail on the head with the parrot suddenly flying past...that is wild at first. Also, living in a small town, kangaroos DO suddenly hop past my house which is in an ordinary suburban style street.
Happens in suburbia too, rarely.
LOL yeah, they're everywhere. I live in the inner city of Sydney and parrots visit me each day (rainbow lorikeets). They've become so accustomed to me that they land on my window and then fly into my unit and land on my shoulder. Even if I'm in the middle of my unit in the kitchen!
Requesting breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner of course.
🦜😆
As an Aussie, I've got big love for CK. Has he ever made it up to further north than Sydney?
I'm Australian. Louie is my fav.
WA should actually secede, the nearest capital city is further away than indonesia
We actually had a referendum and decided to succeed and the eastern states said " maybe later guys". Prior to federation we didnt want to be part of Australia either.
It is funny to think about, but then I found out that one of the first places Russia invaded in Ukraine was a place with a very similar “wouldn’t it be funny if we were our own country?” meme, and they were like “We are going to liberate you from the evil Ukrainians (so long as you remain a Russian puppet state)!”.
So now I’m thinking we should maybe tone it down a bit just incase China gets any ideas lol
God save the King I suppose
never going to happen
Cashed up bogans! I lived in Perth for a while. I really enjoyed it. What I found odd about the city was that after 6pm, there's not much to do there. You go thinking you'll have a night out there, and there's not much going on.
There was a man in the town I lived in called Mad Dog, everyone knew him, he rode around on a bicycle with no shoes on and people would shout Mad Dog at him, and he'd growl.
He’s a national celebrity, and someone that no other country would understand or appreciate.
@@lazytitan6848 Mad Dog is known across Australia?
I feel honoured to have met the guy then, I lived on the same housing estate as him.
Mad Dog is still going and still growling
Check out the mad dog compilation on RUclips. One of the funniest things ever.
“Mad dog ya mad c***”
I saw this guy ages ago on a trip to NY , I swear to God he had people literally falling off their seats and laying in the aisles pissing themself laughing, I couldn’t breathe and turned blue! I had to leave cos I was in real trouble!.
He was unknown back then and I was very happy to see he had his own TV show many years later.
As a FIFO for many years I can tell you the money earned went straight into toys!
V8 hotted up cars, jet skis, offshore fishing boats etc etc , the absolute best of times but of course those don’t last forever but the good fun times had by all can never be taken away.
Watching this from my bunk next to a hole haha
I'm Australian and I can count maybe 3,4 great Aussie standup comedians and the rest are boring yet they seem to get all the TV coverage all the time? That's why I watch Netflix or RUclips for good comedy
Can you recommend any? I haven’t seen any yet. I can’t stand the Peter helliars and tommy littles
@@Peterdecz Steve Hughes Carl Barron and Jim Jefferies are a few great one's 👍
@@madazza yeah, true, I did forget about JJ. I’ll look up CB👍🏻cheers
@@madazza jim jefferies is god awful
Aussie, here. Melbourne is the woke capital of Australia, so Louis might've been playing to a room of humorless moral narcissists who think political conformity and mental illness is a personality.
Basically the whole of Victoria.
I wish i knew Louie was touring in Australia!!!
This is an unusually accurate summary of Australia. The parrot business is very true.
Australian living near Melbourne here: never bothered to visit AU comedy clubs because I've never liked an Aussie comic. Friendly jordies is good
Why? The Comedy Festival has some great comedians
@@melsmithmel who's your favourite? I'll look them up
I can't stand his voice. It's the worst
Sammy J and Randy are pretty good, in my opinion.
Rodney Rude. He doesn't do it anymore but his shit was absolutely hilarious. Isaac Butterfield is alright.
I saw Dave Chappell was touring Australia. I thought about going to see him. But then figured he’d probably do all the American politics stuff and then just simply couldn’t be bothered. But Ironically I probably wouldn’t have wanted to see it if he personalised for Australian audience. Because it’s lack nuance and be disingenuous. But the stuff in america wouldn’t work here we don’t have or care about American politics.
Who needs politics when you have The Chats?
So you’re just impossible to please. Noted.
@Trevor Distance Australia has a saying 'tall poppie syndrome' and this guy is the epitome of that saying
Yes we do..we are heavily influenced by American culture..The Trump jokes would be funny to us.
There’s not a country on Earth that doesn’t care about US politics, that’s why so many come to Joe Bogan’s poocast
Gotto hand it to Louis CK - he absolutely nailed us there. Best example/summation I have seen from any American on Australia/Perth/Mining and FIFO work ;)
loll, best description of Perth FIFO life
I'm from perth and work in the mines, entirely accurate 😂
Damn never thought I’d hear the term FIFO on Joe’s podcast 😂 awesome
That was hilarious 😂 😅 FIFO 😭😭😭😆
Fly in - fly out..... che ching! 💰(cashed up bogans)
I thought the back said bogan when I was scrolling.
I saw LCK in Perth, I was laughing throughout the show
I felt the same when I visited America. It was trippy AF.
Louis CK is a king. From his short time you can tell he took some info in. He even says Melbourne in a normal way which is rare for a Americans. They normally say MelBORN but he pronounces it well.
Man how refreshing it is to hear Louis CK tell a pretty accurate depiction of Australia. Really nice knowing there are some people who give a damn about our history.
Louis gets it. Suprisingly well informed about Perth.
As an fifo worker it’s more modernised now than what old maté describes, he is talking about the old mining times
Perth born but US raised, I would love to show them what Perth is about they would probably love it more.
It was such a great show watching Louis ck.
Shocking venue though, rac arena was waaaaay to big , but I got front row seats 😄
