      If you think about, by selling your special to Netflix or the like, youre limiting your viewership to the number of subscribers watching comedy on that outlet. Everyone has RUclips so its smarter to put it out for free and get the ad revenue while extending the reach and scope of the project.

    Speaking for all the comedians. If you guys give some tips, we can keep doing these. Imagine a world with no more gatekeepers. Where the only things holding us back is the amount of money it takes to make these. I like the Edinburgh Free Fringe model of shows where we don't charge the audience for tickets. But then after the show, the comic stands outside with a bucket and people throw in their "thanks" as they file out. On great shows, I made more. On shows where I was off or tired, I made less. The adults put in more than the college kids. But even the college kids threw in a pound or two. And the people who owned houses kicked in 20s or 50s. Sometimes even 100! This model allowed everyone to take a chance on a show without financial risk, and then afterwards they gave what they woulda given had they known how good it was going to be. The amount of money I'd get in my bucket was always in direct correlation to how good a show I had put on. When I was on fire, the bucket would be overflowing with cash. When I was off the bucket would be lighter. It was fair.
    Well, same with these specials. If you see one you loved throw in a lot. If you see one that was so-so, throw in less. It was paid for by the guy on stage. And you're directly paying back the guy who brought you an hour (or in this case 90 minutes) of laughs. I think a fair price for an ok special is $3-7 dollars. That's a good price for something they worked on for 2 years (or in this case 5 years 6 months 11 days). And I think a fair price for something amazing is closer to $20. But obviously a lot of that comes down to your individual financial status. We're all somewhere in between those college kids and those adults who owned their own homes.
    And by the way, this isn't just for me. This is for all the comedians on RUclips. They all took a chance. And they're out there with their buckets. Some of them you already walked past. But they're still out there. Go back. Go back and tip out List, and Iapalucci, and Normand, and Morrill, and all the other ones. They gave you something you loved. Return the favor. If you got money, give them what they deserved. If you don't, I get it. I was poor for a long time. A very long time. But just because you're poor doesn't mean you can't put something in the bucket. In Edinburgh, my bucket would have plenty of bills. But it would also be littered with interesting coins from around the world. With Lucy, and Mandy. With ideas on cool restaurants and bars. The equivalent here is to tell people about what you saw. Post it in your stories with links. On your other pages with links. Post about it on your main pages and then again a week later. Spread the word. Leave comments. Tell the comedian how much you liked it. Tell them about a bit or two or some jokes that really stood out. All that stuff helps too. If we're going to free comedy from these gatekeepers, we can all play a role
    The only reason a comic would go to network is for the reach and the money. Well, RUclips has the most reach. And the least censorship. RUclips has no executives coming in with their ridiculous notes on what a professional comedian should or shouldn't put into their work. Honestly, how dare they? The gall to tell a professional and talented comic what they should do on their own special. It's so disrespectful. And RUclips has no gatekeepers. Gone are the days where a talented comedian gets told they're not famous enough, or they're too dirty, or too political, or wrongly political, or they're the wrong gender or race or age. That power is now in the hands of the comics. It's up to us to decide when we are ready to record something. That's our responsibility. And when that time comes, we gotta get a ton of money together and take a huge chance. And if you guys hold up your end of the deal, it can be at least a break even thing for us. We'll all do this if we can break even. We'll take years of work and give it away if we have a decent chance at simply breaking even. Those networks are irrelevant to good standup. That's a shame but it's true. We can change the game. We can free the art form from these dinosaur gatekeepers. Imagine no more censored comedy. Imagine every special being exactly how the comic wants it to be. Every deserving special getting made so you can watch it. We're in this together. It's a symbiotic relationship. Standup is the only art form on earth that requires an audience to exist. So let's put these out together. Crowdsourcing after the fact. Pay what you can and what you feel like you should. The way they do it in Edinburgh
    We.
    Are.
    In.
    This.
    Together.
    I'll be outside with a bucket after the show. Let's GOOOOOO!

Instead Ari went to a comedy club near me for a quarter of what you'd normally pay to see a Comedian of his class. For an hour and a half, and 25 feet apart I got to see the best comedy show I've ever been to, and at a club no less. Thank you for coming to KC Ari.

      Yeah he wasn’t the first but he did also produce and pay for it out of his own pocket so that’s impressive. Comedians usually don’t make much selling their specials to streamers anyway unless it’s chappelle or some shit. They are aiming to break even atleast and then after that it’s views they want so they can sell more tickets. They will go wherever they are confident they will get eyeballs and RUclips is perfect for that. He has a big enough fan base that he could’ve put this behind a pay wall on his website but the views were more important.

    Amazing Special! Ari was one of the first comedian's I saw live after I started doing stand up 8 years ago. I waited until everyone else had talked to him and bought merch. I introduced myself and said I had just started stand up. He was super nice, took the time to talk to me and asked me a few questions. Then he signed the shirt I bought from him and wrote on the shirt "Stick with it," ruining a perfectly good fucking shirt! When I started I fucking sucked but I took his advice, and obsessed over comedy and last month I got to perform a short opening set in a 450 person theatre and crushed it. Thanks Ari for caring about the up and comers and shitty open micers.

    I had to watch this twice it was so freaking hilarious! I'm an Italian, who married a Jew.
    I was raised Catholic, turned, Christian, Wiccan, Agnostic, to it's all BS, leave me alone..
    And I lived in Borough Park Brooklyn😮 where I was forever turning lights on & off for neighbors.(( Who my 4 yo old son called, The Warlocks😳🤣))
    I have never heard anything like this.
    It hit my soul,
    It's Brilliant
    This iS FOREVER FUNNY !!
    (( Oh P. S. The in laws Demanded a Divorce or my partner would not receive inheritance, marriage lasted 2 yrs😢)
    I'd Love to hear you continue on the Bible, front butt Classic .. Get into who in the hell did Cain & Abel have kids with ? Clearly only Eve had front butt so WTF on that one?? There's Sooo much material there, PLEASE DO MORE!!!
    THANK YOU FOR MAKING ME LOL on a day I wanted to die!!!

Watched it while I was at work which kept me from busting a lung in laughter unfortunately. Once I finish work I’m going straight home, rolling a spliff and playing this again. Coming from an Irish catholic family I had a similar crisis of faith in my early twenties, the emphasis you put on the priorities a lot of people concern themselves with struck a chord.
