I can’t remember how long ago I first heard this clip on Pandora, but for the past year or so, when I’ve been talking to a friend on the phone who uses earbuds while he’s at work, his audio quality has reminded me of this comedy clip. As soon as he picks up and I hear the metallic clacking over everything he says, I think “here come the spoons mf”. 😂
Only thing that tops this, is seeing Dan do it live. Especially in a small club. If you run into Dan before the show, put in a request for Dead Squirrel Puppets. Seeing Dan do DSP live is amazing. One of the few times had to keep wiping tears from my eyes throughout the entire bit. If there's something Dan is the master of, it's building a story to the point you're so spent from your laughter constantly ratcheting up, you almost beg for a cigarette and a minute to regain your composure before the next round. ;)
One can only wonder how many other students are now pulling off this very same evil stunt because of this joke. He is very descriptive which gives him his unique style in telling stories. You know that you're in for a good joke when he breaks character and laughs in the process. His podcast is equally as good. Thanks Dan.
Dan- Loved the new stuff you did in Phoenix. My date was a bump on a log, but she found the homelessness solution very practical. The rest of the set I laughed my ass off, but as we were leaving the club, I had to come out of the closet as a fellow drug lover. I did not get laid but I felt like I dodged a bullet. You’re a great story teller, I forgot the name of your opener but he was hilarious and had a unique style I enjoyed. ✌🏻
After listening to Timesuck for 3 years now, and only just seeing him talk in a video now, I can say he now reminds me of Jason Lee, but slightly more badass.
You’re lucky you didn’t have a merch area in the New Orleans (I’ve been waiting for you to come down to us for years) I wished I could have given you a white board with here come the spoons m’fer with a nice new glass spoon. Ya lost out. Maybe next time you will have a merch table at your show so spoons won’t show up unannounced
I've gotten so sick of all the other comedians I used to listen to, then there's this guy. I used to hear this in rotation with bill burr and Joe Rogan and Tom Segura. I never heard him on any of their podcasts. I can't stand any of them now, their shit has run so cold - one sold out to the corporations, one to the grift economy, and the other is just out of funny shit. Dan just put out a special that is as good as anything he's ever done. Something to be said for slow and steady, keeping true to yourself, not getting lost in a scene, etc. This joke is told a little more nicely here than I remember it, but who cares.
Obviously you were born with a silver spoon in your throat. You're the first comedian I have heard that did not say he was in therapy and the first one that really needs it!
Dan has been telling this same joke for like 13 years lol He doesnt mention on stage before telling the joke that this is one of his well established and older bits? I thought for sure once he mentioned at the start that this was the worst prank he's ever done the crowd would start cheering immediately because they know the bit already.
@riley4177 yeah I only know this from one of his albums, which I'm sure the casual/new fan has only seen his taped specials, im glad he is doing this one again
@LiamLivesOn i just remember hearing this bit all the time on Pandora back in the day and on XM radio's comedy station. I guess thats why it felt much more frequent to me throughout the years lol

I remember listening to this bit in my college cafeteria over 10 years ago. One of my favorite bits all time haha
Yep classic
This is the bit that got me into Dan's comedy. He's an excellent story teller.
He’s gotta be if he has 3 podcasts lol
His podcasts are so great! Time Suck is informative and hilarious.
Mine was the squirrels 🤣🤣🤣
Seeing him on Friday! This will be my first show I’ve ever seen live. So freakin pumped! Three out of five stars wouldn’t change a thing
You're going to be doing a show one day, and a random spoon will come flying at your head. Then you'll know he found you🤣🤣
Lol
HAHAHA that's a good point!! 😂
And then he’ll hear “Here come the spoons, motherfucker”.
Gold. First time hearing this. I laughed probably harder than necessary in this quiet room. Thanks!!!
Just saw Dan in Boise, I love this skit but I love Smoothie guy even more. Thanks for including it in the tour. Hail Nimrod!
Smoothie Guy and Here come the Spoons have to be Dan's greatest hits.
THIS BIT IS WHAT GOT ME INTO DAN!
I saw him in Philly a couple weeks ago and through plastic "silver" spoons on stage. He laughed and ended with this bit. Fuckin awesome.
Welcome! & thanks!
Madlad behavior
“I gotta be top 3….on his people to kill list.”
😂😂

That story will never get old with me!
I was lucky enough to see this bit live. Hail Nimrod!
I am soo excited to see you live this Friday

I’m a Student at gu and they changed it
I love Dan!
Please would you come to Iowa, Des Moine to be exact!! I love your comedy and just laughed so hard!!
I'm in SE Iowa, we went to see him last year in Davenport. I hope you get him near you! His live stand up is definitely worth seeing.
Never have i cryed during a movie. But this had me laughing so hard i looked like i was weeping 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭😭😭
Still one of my favorite jokes ever, from anyone.
This got me into comedy, I was inspired to try stand up by spoons and ep 1 time suck baby. Moo soup and peanut butter
And show biz
First bit of @dancummins I heard! Still one of my favorites! Sent me down the rabbit hole of loving timesuck and the suckmaster!
There it is. Finally got it on here. Looks like your having a good time at the stadium tour. Glad to see you made it man.
Someone who attacks you with a spoon is a dangerous foe, they come at you with added commitment
This bit just keeps giving funny af
You're the best Dan!
That was sooo well rounded up!"Here comes the spoons motherf@cker..."🤣🤣🤣
Taking "playing spoons" literally. LOL
Please. Please. PLEEEEEASE animate this.
Do it! Do it!
Absofuccinglutly animate this 🤣🤣🤣
Actually really hard to fill dishwasher position 😂.

I new this whole joke before i even found out the name Dan Cummins
I hope he finds you and shows up throwing spoons demanding you do your set 🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭🤣🤣
I'll take "Things I wish I did in High School, Alex" XD
Lol
Timesuck can you do Benjamin atink
I truly hope that Yosemite Sam with a prison vocabulary is a fan of Dan's now.
Brilliant!

Why a spoon?

I thought he only did it on one or two of his original albums. On Timesuck he mentioned how he had to relearn this bit
