"Patricia don't sound tough at all" And rabbit does? Lol
I'm laughing my ass off. I'm southern black irish/Romanian I was always poor.
Ms Pat, I love your comedy, I really like when you're on Bob & Tom. You & Tom crack me up.
Love it.
Thanks God the world is waking up to the "woke" morons but first this all started in Europe and notice you can't find this on any leftest media. But if this Left wing President of France bashed Trump you would be swimming in articles.
2:40 (Turn On Captions) “Son Of A Gun”
Yes I can say i had fun im up next
Guess I’m black now cause that stuff is funny as hell 😂
This was super interesting! Please make more videos like this.
Oh pligga knees!
EQ to
My favorite comedian (Josh Johnson)😌

Burka/ninja 🤣
My 217lbs life
Not me I’ll laugh my ass off
Obviously you haven't tried being a catholic.
More content like this please!!!!!
Pat is a National treasure
so......wait......are these people trying to say that black people don't have empathy? that's kinda racist....
Yep, she's dumb for that.
Crack Wow wtf
Maybe some of y'all just ain't funny, just saying!
You're telling me to stop being "woke" and just enjoy the humor? Some of us have it ingrained in our brains that no racism is funny, and we simply can't laugh at it, man. It can't be changed so quickly. It's not a conscious decision that's keeping me from laughing - I just don't find any racism funny. *Shrug*
@LycanLink if you can't take banter or assholes don't venture to the comments, you have to change for the world sometimes not the other way around, wait for others to improve and you'll die waiting also toxicity can be healthy, thick skin and all that jazz
We can’t be friends.
@PodreyJenkin138 Thank you for understanding. IRworld comments are often toxic and mean, and I'm glad to know you're above that. ^_^
@LycanLink troubling how? It helps to laugh at these things, it's a psychological coping mechanism Also why would I watch legacy media? It's a corporate business designed to serve you a narrative and polluted your mind Ignoring that opinion it's undeniably depressing especially in the last year I just can't fathom not being able to laugh at a concept, maybe it's because my philosophy is inherently "anything goes, all things are possible" and it helps me cope to the day to day, laughing at dark humor is so ingrained in my brain I guess I couldn't turn it off either Never met someone like you (not that, that's bad) so it was interesting to hear your perspective fam
@PodreyJenkin138 I don't mean this as an attack but as a silly joke, but you clearly haven't watched the news these past few years. There are many sadder ideas floating around. 😅 But yeah, I just don't think racism is inherently funny. I feel like the idea that racism has any place in comedy is troubling. BUT everybody's different, and there's no way I can change the world, especially with such a trivial point to be made. I would never force these ideals on another - it's just how my brain works, and it's too ingrained to ever change.
I don't laugh at misfortune because I've got my own real life horror stories. I don't want to hear about yours!
@Garrett Sullivan some comedy is, but not all comedy! We all have different tastes.
Comedy isn’t for you lol
Garbage. Why do people think this is funny? I wouldn’t be surprised if she really did keep crack and a gun in the diaper bag. They don’t feel sorry for you they don’t want people to call them racist if they laugh. That Quiet Muslim joke was kinda funny though.
Goats lol. Oh boy
You do understand that cancel culture and demands for PC comedg have gotren out of hand right? Mrs. Pat is one of the greatest in comedy according to all the people you probably think are GOATS. Thoss stories are true. So are Joey Diaz's. So what!? Suddenly its bad to make light of tragedy? You are part of the problem if you cant grasp the moral here.
Loved this.
“He’s really trying”
Wtf Jordan Temple that was an amazing joke!!
Comedy Central, where the only thing funny is how blatantly racist they are with hired actors pretending to be comedians.
@trispy cream you would know its not baseless if you understood double speak and didn't spend time attacking people's understandings in a youtube video comment section. Where you comment on the video not on the commenters comments.
@Magin yeeees I am naive for not blindly agreeing my with your baseless claim
@Will Comedy Central?
@Magin what are you talking about?
@trispy cream imagine being this naive
Damn they got rob stapleton? havent seen him in years
Josh Johnson killing it as per usual!! 🤣
This is more about woke culture than white privilege. Feeling deep seated guilt and not being able to laugh is definitely not a privilege, it’s a curse.
@PodreyJenkin138 Everyone will be ignorant every day of their life
@GP 352 alright I'll agree with that
@Tacit Tern Try checking your spelling.... 🤦
@GP 352 Try checking your privilege.
@Tacit Tern 😂
Well at least you're really trying.
“I just write the jokes. I didn’t make the world.”
They keep dividing and pitting us against each other so we’ll never wake up and see who is the real enemy. Divide us and conquer us.
Booooooo be funny with original material..not this woke bs. The next bit should be about black privilege in America. Where you can burn and loot and you get a pat on the head and some free Jordan's from the shop that you just burned to the ground in the name of "racial justice" of course ✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
Not to lose the plot here, but can we all take a moment to appreciate how SMOKING hot the old guy at 3:50 is? WOOFS!!!
@Sarah Maybe she'll let me take him off her hands on the weekends so she can have a little peace and quiet? :D I'm kidding! LOL! :P
@JediNiyte lol my bad *Sir
@Sarah Ha ha! I'm a guy, and I'd be trying HARD to flip that fella. Ha ha ha!!! :P
Ma'am his wife is sitting right next to him😭 jk but Fr tho grandpa still got some looks👀🤪
I wish you didn’t include the name of a type of comedy in your title and the series has nothing to do with the type of comedy you mention in the title. Nothing wrong with the comedians. Nothing wrong with the jokes they tell. It’s lazy writing to use that terrible pun in the title. You could have come up with another pun to mean a series about African American comedians talking about African American experiences because it’s February. You wouldn’t have called it observational humor because the audience will be observing the humor in the series ....
@Looking For A Name it’s cool. We don’t have to agree. The point of this is to shine a light on African American experiences. And, only African American experiences. It isn’t just people with dark skin ... you won’t find dark skinned Indian or folks with central or South American heritage or folks from islands in south East Asia, or the Middle East who have dark skin featured. It isn’t about dark skin, it’s about African Americans. Again, no problems with the content. At its core this is really about cultural and societal issues as they impact African American communities. Some of the jokes will involve dark humor, but this is not about dark humor. Not any more than it’s about observational humor or political humor which are also featured to some extent. Dark humor is not the point of this comedy series that says dark humor in the title. And, as I mentioned previously, they had months and months of setting up the locations and picking the talent and shooting the show and editing it to come up with the final title. What they have is lazy. So, it isn’t about people with dark skin ... specifically it’s about African Americans. And it isn’t about dark humor as a genre. So I feel like the title misses the mark.
A lot of them were laughing about some pretty fucked up situations, so the double entendre works, I don't see why you're upset.
I feel like you're pressed for nothing, but everyone is entitled to their opinion. But I am curious, what kinda title for the series you would expect? They have dark skin and they're talking about humor so I don't see the issue...
Josh Johnson was slick
When is he not
Ms Pat is phenomenal. I don't find her offensive at all. She's real. I love her.
Never heard of her until now and she’s my favorite female comedian already
💯 She is a real one
