To be fair, people tend to think about Patrice through the lens of the past, as though he would still be his 41 year old self. He’d be in his mid 50’s right now, so I doubt he’d even have the energy for these “newer” hack comedians. He was already starting to get more chill compared to his early 2000 days before he passed. Just look at some of the comics he came up with like Norton and Burr. Those dudes are NOTHING like their early O&A days 🤷🏻♂️
@polarbearswag7342 I agree bro. Knowing Marc Maron of old, I would think no way that dude would ever tolerate Bert Kreischer much less befriend the doof. But it happened. You never know. We always try to think the best of those we miss
Covid was all these podcasts had going for them, when people literally had nothing better to watch on a consistent basis, then they killed the viewers for any cash they could and those same viewers realized the comedians never actually gave a fuck about them
Nah Schultz was on brilliant idiots long before covid. They lowkey pioneered podcasts very few were doing it on a consistent basis like them at the time
I only listened to JRE because Joe was great at getting the guests to lighten up and I really got ro know the guests. It was all about the guests. It only takes 4-5 episodes to know Joe. I listened for a little while to Bill Burr but I stopped before he ruined his comedy for me.
@@Edgun99a he stole several premises from Patrice like his whole “atheist except when I’m on a plane” bit from his first special. I’ve seen him live over the years about 5 or 6 times and he used to just do straight Patrice material when he was bombing.
@@adamjamestattoos All im sayin is a lot of people can fight these days. It doesnt make you special at all and this sort of gatekeeping nonsense is dumb af
I think the monologue shows how insufferable he is. But maybe doing the little fast forward effect thing and 2x-ing that part would get the point across just fine, without having to hear Schulz for so long. Also what if Schulz clips it at that length? Not worth it.
@@missyelliot6237 for the point that the video essay was trying to get across a full 2 minutes of Shultz monologuing just wastes the viewers time (especially when you consider how it takes up 1/4 of the video). Also, it’s not good if a viewer needs to fast forward the video. I was just trying to give the video creator some gentle advice to help him in his next videos; it’s not a huge deal, just something to consider when creating content in the future.
Andrew in one of his podcast said "some countries need to be occupied" entailing that tibet is better when occupied by china and mocking protesters fighting against chinese communist occupation. Never watched an episode after that. Never will. Heavily invested in his downfall videos. Will watch all of them. Please make more.
Yeah if someone were to bring that up to him he’d just say "I’m a comic". They all simultaneously want to say whatever they want, get no criticism from it, have people think they’re smart, and then pretend like they shouldn’t be taken seriously.
Tibet is way better off now without their religious monarchy. Poverty down, development and infrastructure being built. You want people to live in medieval conditions because the tv told you China bad
the reason the howard stern show was so good in the 2000s was because the laughs were almost always genuine. In fact, a few stern fans complained that Robin the cohost laughed at too many things, even though her personality was that type that had the genuine "laughy" attitude. but even still, she didnt laugh at every joke someone told. In fact, her personality being the laughy type is obvious if you hear her talk long enough.
I didnt realize until I got a free SiriusXM trial that Tom Segura basically ripped off the Howard Stern show with the YMH format, he just used RUclips to get his wack pack instead of callers
Schultz is as bad as Rogan at this point. It's just right wing garbage with bad jokes mixed in and ya I'm just not interested 😂 I don't wanna be forced his dumb uninformed opinion down my throat along with some mid jokes I can write myself...
I have never, ever liked him. He always seemed so insecure to me. When I saw him more and more on these channels, I realized he IS insecure. But at the same time, an arrogant, try-hard loser.
2lazy2try always explains the history of whatever comic he’s covering. And always gives insight. I don’t know what videos you’ve seen of his but they’re great. And this guy xlp is up there too. PC is alright.
I called it , it’s nonsense , disingenuous, fake energy, corny puns , forced laughter, and Andrew pretending to be a modern day Socrates! The show is predictable and cringe !
Even when Schulz was barely starting to get big/well known and everyone loved him and the Flagrant 2, I never could enjoy him.... He was always too over the top/fake/loud/annoying and I just didn't "get it" and thought it must be me. Glad to see the world is finally starting to turn tho lol
Dropped off the Schulz-sphere in '22 due to the pod being un-listenable. Even went to one of his shows, had a bad time since it started late and 2/3 acts were lame. Schulz needs to be humbled, badly.
@@R.Lennartz oh my God yeah, he was very funny and I really miss him! I also think he may have possibly been the literal and figurative comedy antithesis of Andrew Schultz!
You mean no one likes watching wealthy men sit around and make jokes that 12 year old would think were immature? I’m 35 and a goofball but when you’re actually an adult and you see other adults acting like that you feel… internally disturbed 😂
I really can’t believe that none of these guys have had celebrities on for sketches and shit they write. They just all riff for hours and hours. And now fans think that’s what conversations are. It’s nuts. I’m glad viewership is going down. Maybe one or two comedians will evolve and move it along. I thought Segura’s 69 minutes was gonna hit but it was a pretty tough watch.
As soon as Rogan did their podcast in their newer studio, it went downhill from there. That huge ego boost was too much for him and his early detractors could bear. The format changed and you can tell he was pivoting to be a Trevor Noah replacement with 3 yes-men/sidekicks. This is before the comedy special grift and being a covert Zyn salesman. Schulz just comes off really shady now. You have to watch your wallet if he's near you.
didnt need any of this guy doing material. just tell me he sucks, and people are waking up. the monologue segment had me skipping forward. the fact he needs all those guys, and maybe more, to write that. and they cant help but laugh while doing it, cause its so funny.
I was a day one listener. Haven't watched in about a year. 4 people talking over each other. AND have a guest. It's too busy. Have 2 hosts at most. Andrew and Akaash, and have Mark and Alex can stay in the background.
2:48 he's been doing this shit monologue comedy since the pandemic? Remember the Netflix show that he had during that time? I feel like people are just getting sick of it because it always sucked...
His love for exctasy is on full display ever since he got into partying like that. All the excessive laughter, touching and group laughing is the drugs and anyone who has seen it with friends themselves can see it on Andrew and co
@@ivancurlica5856 obv not, but the partying on X carries over into your daily life and personality when you take it frequently. By frequently I mean more than twice a month
It’s so hard to pick a worse part of that program but Andrew’s arrogance, self aggrandizement & unwillingness to share the mic in interviews. Paired with that Indian guys fake tough guy act, constant glazing & terrible takes made the show unbearable.
Wow, and to such a likeable group of guys lol.... i honestly don't think i've ever seen anyone who is quite as impressed with themselves as the Schulz dingdong....
I’m an old school Brilliant Idiots fan but I haven’t watched Schulz in months and he used to be one of my favorites. Tbh during Covid his ego started going crazy cause everyone was inside and had nothing better to do. The talk show format was the beginning of the end for the podcast for me. That’s around the time the authenticity went down the drain
iv honestly commented on FS page that the show was less funny, the fans told me that i was joining the "hate train" because im a bot. half of the lasting audience are bots who call people who are leaving "bot"...sad for a comedy platform.
I feel like a lot of podcasts are going down. Personally I know my interest in them is waning. It feels like the podcast boom is finally bursting. It's been a long time coming though hopefully it will eradicate all the garbage and just leave the quality stuff.
I was a flagrant fan back when the covid era started. Was even a patreon member. Started to slowly get more and more annoying as time went on. I was an even bigger MSSP fan and seeing them trying to bully shane and ruin both episodes he appeared on in the few years, out of clear jealously, did me in. Haven't watched since.
When he compared the flagrant podcast authenticity to the view and morning shows in general. I know that one is going to hurt when they hear that. Because how damn accurate it is and how nobody’s fooled.
The talk show thing is a good point. It's so oversaturated in the current podcasting space. I know they were trying to be ironic, but making the Adam Friedland show a talk show was a total blunder. Their views are way down.
I love the crew but I don’t know what it was. I was a Patreon subscriber and I bought the flagrant Ekster wallet. I just got a little tired of keeping up with all their podcasts with them being so long I guess. I still love them though. I’ll pop in from time to time though
The show stopped evolving. I remember listening to Flagrant 2 on a train somewhere in late 2019 when it was just Schulz, Akash and the other guy complaining about Netflix not giving Schulz a special. I see people in these comments saying Schulz isn’t funny but I disagree. He just started feeding into the shock/controversial/viral comedy that comics use to get exposure but he ran with it for too long. He’s an intelligent person and that’s why I liked the podcast back then. He wasn’t just a degenerate wannabe comedian. He should go back to his original content with 1 or 2 other guys and minimise the interview-style schtick.
Interesting. I feel like AS doing the same as SAS. Following the algos. Stephen A started lifting Kwame Brown talking points. And like with Andy, the adoption of a point, inauthentic to you, falls flat.

I agree, they're absolutely insufferable
*can't believe they had any viewers at any point in time
I watched for abt 3 weeks whenever the show came out 3 years ago or whatever.
That's all it took for me ✌️
I wonder what Patrice would think of Schultz if he were still alive today. I like to think he would hate his guts

That wasn't even a podcast.. that was a regular ass talk show.. same thing as in the 90s.. production crews, scripts, all heavily produced
Yeah but they REALLY tried to portray it as raw and independent especially in the early days.
There's simply too many chefs in Schulz's kitchen. His pals are NOT funny and are usually condescending, even on subjects they know nothing about.
That Alex dude made the podcast absolutely unbearable
Schulz isn't funny. His cheerleaders aka his hyenas are definitely not funny

Blame Schultz. Annoying voice. Always yelling. Cutting people off when they are talking. He's just not likeable.
The cutting off is what turned me off as well. I couldn’t stand it always wondered whether it was bad editing or bad although
Hes repulsive
People get sick of people after watching for so long. If you're not genuine people will eventually see it
This is why Gillis and Theo are doing so well. They're down to earth and money/success didn't change them
Andrew Schulz is nowhere near as smart as he seems to think he is…nor as funny. If I wanted to be talked down to for an hour, I’d call my dad.
So you are telling me Rogan has been doing comedy since 1988 (36 YEARS) and is still that terrible?
I don’t usually watch these kinda vids but I did this time and I definitely smashed the 👍🏽 button for the creator. Good stuff.
