James Gregory is so accurate with his delivery and the way he tells a story. He always takes me right back to Louisiana sitting in the kitchen listening to my grandmaw and aunts gossip and tell stories. Same with Jerry Clowers and some of the men in my family and southern Baptist preachers I grew up around
His story telling ability reminds me very much of old Lewis Grizzard from Georgia. I have several of Lewis' books that absolutely left me in stitches. We lost Lewis much too young in 1994 at the age of 47.
This guy is great. Tells it like it is. Us Southeners can appreciate the authenticity of it all. One or more of his characters is in each of our families!!! 😂
You got it brother. He reminds me of my family in N.C. It's a whole different world since I left there 35 years ago. I lived in VA, NY, NJ, and OH now. Damn I miss it. I will get back and live in the South before I croak :)

But if they do, we'll just feed em a piece a light bread. And caint nobody drink no milk, unnhh uh. Sweet tea!
I have seen James Gregory 5-6 times. Once he gets you laughing you won't stop till the end of the show. Love this man !!!! Listen to as much of him as possible. Hope to see you again real soon. Keep up the great work bro.
James Gregory’s opus of work needs to be preserved in the Library of Congress as documentation of a period of American history. It’s a perfect record of everything about the latter years of the Greatest Generation.
I do not know where this man has been all my life...but he is the most funny southerner I have ever heard...damn close to the best comedian!!!! Just luv him and fe makes my days or nights better.....
My grandfather would start every tale with "I got a fish story". It might be about hunting, fishing, cutting fire wood, or anything. When he said "fish story", you automatically was sceptical about the truth of it.
@Southern By Birth my momma left me on the teeth too long? No wonder you're a fan of this clown. You make about as much sense and are just as not funny as him .
Been listening to James Gregory since I was a kid back in the 80s. my husband and I went to see him a couple of years ago at The comedy catch in Chattanooga Tennessee. We had crappy seats but still had a blast! It was a rat, a RAT... a damn rat!
I have followed and seen him live a couple of times. Funny thing is my father-in-laws name is Cecil. He is 82 years old and takes his riding mower out and mows his grass whether or not it needs it. 😂
Don't know about you, Roxanne, but it took me two minutes to successfully pick myself up off the floor after rolling around in uncontrollable 😃 stress-relieving laughter😂. James Gregory is a Comedic Genius 🤔 🏆 👏.
before my dad died, but after he lost his drivers license due to visions issues, he would get on his riding mower, and ride where ever he wanted to go...to the store..to the post office box. and because he took the mower blades off, no one ever stopped him, they just waved at him and grinned. Ohh Mom was always saying "we will just put it on the sears card" she had one in her name, one in daddy's and kept them both maxed.
I grew up in a neighborhood like you described, but in Chicago 1960s. Us kids couldn’t away with much because of women like “mama.” Thank you for the laughs.
Truly the Funniest Man. We saw him at the casino in Biloxi Mississippi, and our faces and abs hurt from laughing and crying from laughing. I will never forget it.
RIP James Gregory, you were one of the best comedians ever. You will be truly missed rest in peace
I truly believe he is one of the best story tellers ever. Certainly one of the funniest I’ve ever listened to.
His mannerisms are awesome and stories too .love this man
Rest in peace, you bought so much joy to so many people ❤️❤️❤️
So true. I listen to this and still LAUGH.
This is one of my favorite skits he ever did😂😂😂

Betty you are so right.This man is not only very funny but he is an adorable person, too.
His story telling ability reminds me very much of old Lewis Grizzard from Georgia. I have several of Lewis' books that absolutely left me in stitches. We lost Lewis much too young in 1994 at the age of 47.
he reminds me of Lewis Grizzard
This is the funniest set that I've ever seen James gregory perform, and he's done a bunch of them!
I love it when a comedian starts cracking up at their own jokes! It makes it that much funnier 😭

Right? Every southerner has that overeating great aunt we see once a year 😂
I died when he said Cecil soaked in the tub so much it rusted his butt the used WD40🤣🤣🤣🤣💗
If you're a southerner a true Southerner you're laughing with him if you're a northern you're laughing at him Big Damn difference in my eyes
This man has told the funniest stories for decades. Facial expressions help seal the deal. Thanks for posting! 👍👏✌️
Ohio home hhiipnbb
I love this guy…he even cracks himself up which is awesomeness

This dude reminds me of one of dad’s buddies that would be the funniest person at the bbq get together. Story telling like this is a dying art.
I wish my father was still here because he would love this comedian. Our family and friends from where we are from (born) are just like this.

The funny part is if you are Southern you know he is talking about somebody we know. LOL
Not just Southerners.
Ain't that the truth
Actually the funny part is , the fact that any sound minded person , finds this funny .
The sad part is you realize he's talking about a lot of people you know and share a gene pool with.
@Valiant Man perfect
I do not know where this man has been all my life...but he is the most funny southerner I have ever heard...damn close to the best comedian!!!! Just luv him and fe makes my days or nights better.....
I can't believe I just found him in the last week. He's gotta be the funniest I've heard in a long time. 🤣
Love him,love him. That's just the way it is in the South!!
Is it??
Yes, it is.
Love his stories. He makes me think of Jerry Clower, who I just loved listening too
Couldn't agree more. Saw him perform in Charlotte NC Authentic Southern Humor.
Sounds just like em too.
Knock em ouuuuut john
@@shaehix1669 Shoot up here amongst us, one of us has got to have some relief!
I thought he was Jerry when I first heard him. He would go to the Lake City Tobacco Festival in SC every year. This man here is hilarious.
Ain't it the truth, southern and proud of it, some of the best people in the world, if nothing else we laugh a lot!
I’ve seen him twice. My face hurt from laughing so much. He reminds me of so many people in my family, it’s crazy 😂
You are hilarious !!
Yup!
Reminds me of my area here in Alabama. Use to be how he tells it...and for my area, it still is. Lol
@@imjustmetoo7419 same here from cortland in Lawrence co
He's heard me talk...about anything.
This guy makes me laugh like a fool thank you James Gregory you are the funniest man in America
Actually , he's probably not even the funniest guy in his household.
Hello Michael
Haven't laughed so much for a very long time
He's so funny.
I have seen him live like 3 times.. and loved him each time.. such a funny man!!
He is hilarious! I have been watching him for years and he just keeps getting better!
One of the funniest men I've heard in my 50 yrs.
"I told 'em, I said..."
The beginning of every great Southern tale, or gossip, known to man.
And followed by "well you know how she is"
@@canecorsomom2023 There may even be a "bless their heart" in there too.
I wonder how many cousins have married each other w/o knowing it?
My grandfather would start every tale with "I got a fish story". It might be about hunting, fishing, cutting fire wood, or anything. When he said "fish story", you automatically was sceptical about the truth of it.
It takes a Southerner to understand a Southerner.
True. I'm from WI and don't understand what's so cold in TX. 25 degrees Is sweatshirt weather.
Idk man. George Carlin said once that even though he didn't like Jerry. Clower, he thought he was hilarious and had what he would call PERFECT timing.
Amen
You mean you think the world ends at the county line?
Does it? Cause I’m from the north of England and I understand every word he’s saying.
RIP James. I will miss your stories.
My Dad is 84 yrs old, and he's explained my Daddy to a T. 💯😂
Really? Your daddy must me a real special person . Bless his heart, I bet he gets lost in the grocery store.
I love this man. Knows how to make you laugh
James Gregory is so funny. Our favorite of all time. Wait for another video of his to be published.
I have watched him in concerts live and videos and he is the funniest guy. Today we need to laugh.
I knew the WD-40 was coming. LOL Gotta love James Gregory.
Not only the funniest man in America, the funniest man in the world!
What makes it the funniest is it's based on TRUTH for Us lucky enough to have been raised South of the Mason Dixon Line.
Check out Lewis Grizzard
@@algreen6485 love LG. Saw him in person long ago.
Why do you wear your ignorance like a badge of honor . Your probably as dumb as this clown is not funny . Bless your heart , you're special.
@Southern By Birth my momma left me on the teeth too long? No wonder you're a fan of this clown. You make about as much sense and are just as not funny as him .
he is hilarious. much like jerry clowers/ classic clean fun
When he gets tickled at himself thats the best part! Hilarious!
It really is hilarious we he starts laughing
And when the audience starts laughing harder then he gets tickled!!!
He did EVERYTHING he could to keep composure... heeheehee...damn near fell off the stage.
No the best part is when the video ends .
I lost count of how many times old men on lawnmowers tried to go through the drive-thru when I worked in fast food.
😂
I just love him. Seen him live numerous times, still get tickled
I am a legally born US citizen. But I identify as a Southerner. 👍👍👍🥰🥰🥰

That's where I saw him many decades ago! He was hilarious then & still is now!🤣

James, Yes, you are the Funniest Man in America. Thank you.
I know folks like these nutty folks James talks about!!! He has it perfect
James, your delivery and your timing is absolutely perfect.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Tell 3 stories to tell 1 story. Classic
That's the way it's done in the South !
That weed eater bumble bee lol. And he wore those bifocals and when he looked down he was so proud 🤣🤣🤣🙌
That bumble bee looked like a buzzard!!!!!!
This may be the funniest comedian I've ever listened to.. ..never heard of him before today!
Cain't nobody do comedy like a southerner. 🤠
yes. never heard anyone like him. best comedian ever.
This guy is the real deal there's laughs without a bunch of filthy talk
"He cut through his neighbor's yards."😂
I love James Gregory!!! ❤ "He rusted his butt!"
😂😂😂
Trouble was his wife didn't wear bifocals 😂😂😂😂
I have followed and seen him live a couple of times. Funny thing is my father-in-laws name is Cecil. He is 82 years old and takes his riding mower out and mows his grass whether or not it needs it. 😂
Hope he don't have a neighbor with a wheelchair
Gives the old geeser something to do.
He was chasing bumblebees with it 🤣
Don't know about you, Roxanne, but it took me two minutes to successfully pick myself up off the floor after rolling around in uncontrollable 😃 stress-relieving laughter😂. James Gregory is a Comedic Genius 🤔 🏆 👏.
Ironically I had to sit through a Cub Cadet commercial before I could watch this.
He is hilarious 😂. Love ❤️ him. He cracks me up.
Funniest man I’ve ever seen. Love those stories
Mr. Gregory, Sir, you are one funny man. Thank you for the laughs. 😂😂😂
One of the best!!!
The funniest parts are when he's trying to hold it together and keep himself from laughing and breaks down.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love to see a comic get tickled at his own stuff. :)
He is just so funny!! Makes my side hurt! 😂
I can't stop laughing
before my dad died, but after he lost his drivers license due to visions issues, he would get on his riding mower, and ride where ever he wanted to go...to the store..to the post office box. and because he took the mower blades off, no one ever stopped him, they just waved at him and grinned.
Ohh Mom was always saying "we will just put it on the sears card" she had one in her name, one in daddy's and kept them both maxed.
Bless his ❤️
Hilarious especially when he laughs at hiself before the joke😂
LOVE love love love ❤️😃🥰💜💕💝🥰❤️ James Gregory. He's so funny

RIP comedy king!!
My favorite comedians. James Gregory Robin Williams and Eddie Murphy
Me too- I loved Robin Williams but he always got me thinking about his sad eyes.Wished I could've hugged him....🐙
This is so true I grew up in a Baptist southern home 😂
HIS TIMING IS AMAZING,
I lived in the South for 12 years and can confirm this story to be true!!!
Been laughing at this guy for over 30 years. Whatever "IT" is.... he has IT.
I had to reapply my eye makeup--I laughed until I cried--I needed this tonight. Thank .
James Gregory you really are the funniest man
Well, ya know the way he tells it!
I can watch this every day and it’s funny
Love him on John Boy and Billy.

Someone Needs To Stop This Man Before He Hurts Someone😂😂😂😂
My sentiments exactly!!! 😂😂😂😂😂👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🤦🏽🤦🏽🤦🏽
I love listening to this man
Can't hear enough from this beautiful comic
LOVE YOU JAMES!👍
I grew up in a neighborhood like you described, but in Chicago 1960s. Us kids couldn’t away with much because of women like “mama.” Thank you for the laughs.
Truly the Funniest Man. We saw him at the casino in Biloxi Mississippi, and our faces and abs hurt from laughing and crying from laughing. I will never forget it.
Must be the most hilarious bit I ever came across !
A great story teller!
One of my very favorite comics!!
