Michelle Wolf is a comic genius. Her timing, her material, her delivery, are all awesome. How is her material any more offensive than previous comics at previous dinners? It isn't. Her jokes just fell on snowflakes who like to be horrible to other people and call them snowflakes. I'm a fan. 😊
She also called the press core complicit in the election of Trump because they wanted to make money so they gave him attention. I have always thought that’s why they went so hard after.
Great speech!!! Thank you Michelle Wolf. Well done. Michelle's comments on Sarah Huckabee were 10000% accurate. They had nothing to do with Sarah's looks. They are completely irrelevant to her lies, and behavior. Handmade's Tale was a brilliant comparison. Her speech aged beautifully. Still all too relevant.
In today's world we are sold all kinds of lies by our media and governments. The only ones allowed to tell the truth are comedians because they can say "just kidding" afterwards. Michelle Wolf told some deep truths in this bit and did burn it all down. It was one of the best comedy speeches I have ever witnessed. She's a f*cking legend!!!
Probably her weakest joke of the night. If it were funnier the reception would have been more positive - you can get away with anything if it’s funny. Just like Men are creepy….unless they’re tall and good-looking.
Ms. Gross, I’ve listened to myriad episodes of Fresh Air, and you have heretofore been wonderful! I’ve always found you to be _getting at the truth_. Nonetheless, when you hammered at Ms. Wolf about Sarah Huckabee, it seemed that you were _getting at a lie_. I am extremely disappointed. Ms. Wolf, you expertly parried her attempts at a lie! I rather cannot think of many others who would have done as well as you did, Ms. Wolf.
Sarah Huckabullshit certainly does not need the sympathy from feminists… considering what a misogynist she is and the entire party she not only supports but is their loudest mouthpiece. Terry Gross has ZERO understanding of pop culture references and that’s pretty sad considering she’s a highly respected (over)paid journalist. This interview aged like old milk… do better NPR. 🙄
While I appreciate that she was given the chance to explain her jokes I am upset by the detail she had to go into and the amount of times she had to say variations of, "Well, if you listened to the joke it's obvious that I was not saying what I am being accused of saying..."
I don't admire Terry Gross's interview style. She steps on her interviewees lines, she's tone deaf when listening, seems to be self-promoting over the interview topic. I think this could have been a much more meaningful interview with a different interviewer. I admire Michelle Wolf though.
Michelle Wolf is my favorite comic. I am a big fan of Fresh Air also and she dealt with this interview better than anyone I could imagine and her point of people projecting their preconceptions on her jokes couldn’t have been more honest or cutting toward her attackers.
17:14 you speak of defending sarah sanders, as if she is defensible. you don’t defend monsters, you attack them with torches and pitchforks. everyone knows that. there aren’t two sides to every story. all of tfg’s press ghouls were monsters. kelly ann conway was particularly scary.
I am so glad she stuck to her guns. More liked canons. She smoked it and I am a fan for it!!! Then to hear her here just solidify it even more!!! Sad Terry even bought up the joke of Sarah Sanders lines which had nothing to do with Sarah’s looks. Liessss it’s alll about lies!! It was a master piece of a roast!!!!
5 years on (2023) and BRAVO for making those fascists squirm and feel uncomfortable, Michelle. Most of them deserve to be in jail for what they did to our country. Here's to seeing that that becomes a reality in the next 5 years... it sure looks like their cult leader is headed in that direction (on top of having his businesses and money taken from him). The media also needs to be reformed, they were the ones who helped Trump get elected and they STILL don't act like journalists - they cozy up to power instead of exposing it.
Wow can’t believe I never heard any of this until now (October 2023). Bravo to Michelle for speaking honestly and cleverly. Shame on the snowflakes that were too fragile to hear it.
Wolf had the audacity to not only call out Bad Orange Man, but to very clearly expose the hypocrisy & hysterics of the self-aggrandizing corporate-media & preening celebrity cable-hosts. The pseudo-woke & neocon alliance, which would be so readily evident in the years following this event, was already coalescing around the manufactured outrage of her critiques.
Michelle Wolf is one of the most important comics out there. I feel like she's a spiritual descendant of George Carlin. Her WHCD speech was perfect. People who were offended by her SHS joke thought "smokey eye" was some kind of slur or insult rather than a makeup term. I mean, I'm a guy who knows nothing about makeup, but even I knew she was talking about makeup and not commenting on SHS' physical appearance.
Michelle Wolf's White House Correspondents' Dinner speech was TOP NOTCH. And she was a *beast!* One of the top 3 Correspondents' Dinner speakers of all time! (And that's a high bar when you consider some of the previous ones!) The people who were upset with her _brilliant_ speech are small minded snowflakes who are pathetic guilty hacks. She was _amazing._
She has ZERO to apologize for, the line of questioning was layered in assumptions stemming from their own projected insecurities and preclusions. The fact that Michelle had to address any of that was just a reflection of the toxic shitstorm our media is. Good comedy is a mirror, and the outrage people are expressing are purely a reflection of their own disgusting take on things. Love Michelle Wolf; keep up the amazing work
Michelle Wolf is currently my favorite comic. She's great. Fascinating that people are so offended by jokes about republians' horrific behavior, but not by the behavior itself.
I wished you'd let it go sooner rather later, Terri. The jokes were not about Sarah's looks. Michele answered your many variations of the looks question. I'm disappointed by how you grilled Michele.
Michelle Wolf has excellent timing. She is also very funny, but few comics today have her timing. I'm surprised by the interviewer. Just the way she asked the questions made it sound like Michelle Wolf should be apologizing for her comedy. Like Micelle said if you didn't like her comedy, you should've picked someone else. Her new special on Netflix's is really good.
The right don’t don’t like a woman to be smart or funny. Michelle happens to be wicked funny, and whip smart. The right’s spite is a feature, not a bug.
she did brilliant No changes Uncomfortable but true Clearly SARAH HUCKERBEE SANDERS is obviously about her lies And spot on The misogyny is mind bogging
Yes the dinner should no longer have a comic. Because that champions free speech and journalism shouldn’t be about that. It should be about not offending anyone. 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
![Gucci Mane & Sexyy Red - You Don't Love Me [Official Music Video]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/j7IBqyFKT4c/mqdefault.jpg)
She was legitimately funny and that’s her style of comedy. Nailed it. Don’t apologize Michelle Wolf.
That part about not having it all is a joke that works REGARDLESS of your politics
she didnt, relax you cornball
She's also got a wonderful smile. I'm glad she's feisty and funny a lo mismo tiempo.
She nailed it. No apology needed.
There's no sharper truth than comedy. I never tire of Michelle's speech.
Her political leanings don’t make her a comedian. She is an extremely biased liberal. She doesn’t get to blame the title “comedian”…
Michelle Wolf killed it.
Holding the comedian more accountable than our elected officials. If only she grilled the people that matter this thoroughly.
She is brilliant and truthful.
Michelle Wolf is a comic genius. Her timing, her material, her delivery, are all awesome.

Right on ✊🤨

The right wingers - male and female - have a hard time with smart and wickedly funny women in general. Michelle Wolf is both.
And H O T. 😅
@@mikewhite4560hell yeah! everything about her ❤️🔥
I watched it and she was terrific. Right on the mark.
It only hurts if there is some truth to it.
In today's world we are sold all kinds of lies by our media and governments. The only ones allowed to tell the truth are comedians because they can say "just kidding" afterwards. Michelle Wolf told some deep truths in this bit and did burn it all down. It was one of the best comedy speeches I have ever witnessed. She's a f*cking legend!!!
she was shocking and incredible
@@nicolaablett7790she was a truth teller. Unlike the entire MAGA administration.
Loved this interview, my favorite comedian interviewed by my favorite interviewer.
The smoky eyes joke with burning facts was the best , ever 😂😂😂. Go Gurl!!🙌🙌🙏🏼👍🏽
Probably her weakest joke of the night. If it were funnier the reception would have been more positive - you can get away with anything if it’s funny. Just like Men are creepy….unless they’re tall and good-looking.
@@CenterThePendulum so sad, you have no sense of humor. 🤷🏻♀️
Wow Michelle… This was amazingly done and worded so THOUGHTFULLY!!!
Michelle was absoutelty hilarious at the whcd.
I have Michelle's Roast on SPEED DIAL. 😅
I think Michelle Wolf did us a great service With this performance. Too bad the room couldn't handle it.
She is great!! Thank you so much for providing this wonderful video!!
She was fantastic.
Oh my god!!!! She upset sarah huckabee sanders!!!!??????? That must have been really really easy!
Michelle's set was a ray of light in the dark, humourless Trump administration.

Her performance was brilliant. I watch it from time to time for inspiration.
I think I have watched this Correspondent's dinner speech of hers 20 times or more. It was so brilliant and funny
The questions about pregnancy and having kids sound so inappropriate that I’m shocked to hear a female interviewer asking them.
"Joke 'em if they can't take a f@ck." - Robin Williams
Her latest Netflix special was by far her best work. Can’t wait for more. 👍🏾
While I appreciate that she was given the chance to explain her jokes I am upset by the detail she had to go into and the amount of times she had to say variations of, "Well, if you listened to the joke it's obvious that I was not saying what I am being accused of saying..."
She did what was necessary at the time.
I don't admire Terry Gross's interview style. She steps on her interviewees lines, she's tone deaf when listening, seems to be self-promoting over the interview topic. I think this could have been a much more meaningful interview with a different interviewer. I admire Michelle Wolf though.
Agreed. She's so condescending to Michelle.
The Politician is weak whom can not laugh at himself. The comedian is weak whom can not make people laugh. I laughed.
See Michelle live if you get the chance. An incredible performer.
Not Aunt Lidia!!!😂😂😂
I LOVE MICHELLE WOLF!!! 💕
LOVE MICHELLE (Terry too) - Nice work Girl!
Thank you for this interview, Michelle is a great comedian 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Great interview! Thank you
Love her. LOVE HER!
it should include more comedians. Lampooning politicians is the basis of democracy. I don't care which face of the one party system you're showing.
Yep exactly 💯 and Republicunts prove over and over again that they can't take a joke (or make a joke!)
Michelle Wolf is my favorite comic. I am a big fan of Fresh Air also and she dealt with this interview better than anyone I could imagine and her point of people projecting their preconceptions on her jokes couldn’t have been more honest or cutting toward her attackers.

Michelle Wolf is brilliant!
A woman with ovaries
Wolf was the greatest CD host ever and all future CD speakers should study her performance to see how it's done.
She was great but Stephen Colbert was arguably better when he roasted and demolished Bush and Cheney
“Burn it to the ground” love it
Michelle Wolf didn’t seem to hurt S Fullabull Sanders at all! She’s governor of the great repressive state of Arkansas….. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
It's excellent that her jokes are more and more now being found to be true.
Loved this
It’s supposed to be a roast.
I like how she mentioned flint stuff ll hasnt have clean water especially front of those so called journalists
She is terrific !!!
Her jokes were mild compared to the reality of this year. Love Michelle wolf!
I ❤ her.
13:32 Terry sounds really dumb here.
Nailed it.
Wow can’t believe I never heard any of this until now (October 2023). Bravo to Michelle for speaking honestly and cleverly. Shame on the snowflakes that were too fragile to hear it.

Thank you for this glimpse of what Michelle Wolf is like off stage!
Backlash? I had never heard of her before and am a big fan of her standup shows now. She is one of the funniest comedians in my opinion.
Michelle wolf is pure gold! The most truthful hilarious correspondence dinner ever before or after!!!!??

She just said the truth with a large dose of Snark and style.
Some people don't like strong Women
Love Michelle Wolf! The GOP don’t get the concept of comedy.
Not one ounce of humor in the republicans I've seen or heard.
Michelle Wolf's White House Correspondents' Dinner speech was TOP NOTCH. And she was a *beast!* One of the top 3 Correspondents' Dinner speakers of all time! (And that's a high bar when you consider some of the previous ones!) The people who were upset with her _brilliant_ speech are small minded snowflakes who are pathetic guilty hacks. She was _amazing._
I LOVED her! The Republicans can dish it but they can't take it.
Yep exactly Republicans can never take a joke, a REAL joke, about themselves, cuz they're evil humorless a-holes
So much of the criticism sounded misogynistic. Also she was serving up facts .
"how dare you make jokes about us" say the people who call everyone snowflakes and bleat about the 1st amendment,..
Her act was iconic.
Ms. Wolf did what Congress and the media seem unable to do. Her job!
Wolf was one of the few people to tell it like it was to their faces.
Brava Wolf she is the best!
Brilliant material 👍

Gross seems biased and clueless here, for the most part. Wolf wasn’t attacking Huckabee’s looks.
She has no reference to pop culture. And no sense of humor. Pearl clutcher. 🙄
The whole point is these should have been jokes, but theyre too true. Crushed through the "curtain"
12:24 omg i forgot how savage her burn was 😂😂😂. if you don’t wanna get done for lying, don’t work for tfg. just ask rudy.
She's the best!
Wolf called it like it was...
Comedy is truly funny when it hits the nail of truth on the head without flinching. Michelle Wolf does that.
Michelle Wolf is currently my favorite comic. She's great.
Fascinating that people are so offended by jokes about republians' horrific behavior, but not by the behavior itself.
She said all the right things!!
Brilliant comic. A Pro’s Pro.
I wished you'd let it go sooner rather later, Terri. The jokes were not about Sarah's looks. Michele answered your many variations of the looks question. I'm disappointed by how you grilled Michele.
Remember when Peter Griffin was roasted and his feelings were hurt.
That's who trump is.
She is hilarious.

What? She was only repeating true facts.
Such an attractive and intelligent lady.
Michelle Wolfe ripped it! Thank god for comedy these last 10 years….
Don’t change Michelle. Knuckle staggers will never hear your jokes and forget about messages
she did brilliant
No changes
Uncomfortable but true
Clearly SARAH HUCKERBEE SANDERS is obviously about her lies
And spot on
The misogyny is mind bogging
Why does this comedian have to explain her humor to this interviewer…why are people such babies that they have to get everything spoon fed to them ?
not sure the interviewer understands comedy
Michelle's performance now seems tame.
the only people that didn't like it don't like any comedy that's critical of their ideology, so it doesn't matter what they think.
I think Michelle responded really well to Terry’s projections.
Yes the dinner should no longer have a comic. Because that champions free speech and journalism shouldn’t be about that. It should be about not offending anyone. 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Wait, conservatives got offended by jokes? I thought that they weren't offended by things. 🤭
