I did ACMS. an alternative show in Edinburgh where you aren't allowed to do "normal" stand up. Didn't know what to do so let some children write my set.

Amazing!
Will you be in Liverpool any time soon?
Apropos the Gatwick Hotel bit. Currently, there is a trial in Norway on a huge drug smuggling operation. Some of the involved claimed they are just here on vacation. As evidence that they are not in any way here to enjoy themselves and are in fact EXTREMELY SUSPECT, the prosecution point out that they voluntarily stayed in the airport hotel.
haha! maybe this whole show is just my alibi
Thank you so much for this.
you're welcome! please do check out Go Faster Stripes other online content, they're proper good guys and filmed this all for free.
If I had a dollar for every time I was told (sometimes by complete strangers) "Instead of saying x, you should say blah, blah, blah..."... And I live in a country where Freedom of Speech is black letter law in the Constitution. People want you to make THEM comfortable, never the reverse.
High heels hurt and autism can make you clumsy. Nail polish and all the stuff in beauty salons smells too strong. Tight clothes...well you see why an autistic girl wouldn't fit the Barbie doll gender markers, but I have never been anything but what I am--female. Just not "female impersonator".
Chilling!
Loved the "severely" list on NTs!
Brilliant! Made my day. Thank you.
😂😯😢🤯🤣🥳🙏🏼
This has made me laugh and it helped me understand myself better. ❤
what a lovely comment, thank you!
This is so funny!! There’s parts of the show the audience should have been cackling lol it was so good
The finacial arguement for neuro-diversity. Money is just an idea, real wealth comes from people. I remember seeing a conspiracy video about "viral warfare" around the time of covid and it said something along the lines of "a virus kills the people but leaves the wealth intact". If you actually think about that all you would have is a load of empty buildings and resources decaying. If you take their money it would have the same effect as printing more money, it would devalue your currency. I'd love to know if our species will ever loose its obsession with money, at the end of the day its a man made idea and puts up barriers to actually helping people. We have been enslaved by our obsession to safeguard the economy which we worship as if it was a god. For me this is what the Infinity ♾️ stands for, theres a limited number of one and an infinity of the other 🍁
Clever, funny, brilliant
Agree re:awareness months. Same for allergy awareness. It's just when the charities can promo their merch. Autism acceptance month - but then are the other 11 months - non-acceptance months? Autism pride is a thing, isn't it? But it's still LGBT
come to Australia
You are hysterical, love your work! From one autistic person to another, it’s amazing ❤
Omg your comedy is SO BRILLIANT 🤣😂🤣😂
This was incredibly good.
My boyfriend is autistic and has 3 maths degrees. I'm severely not autistic...and have a film and media studies degree 😂😂😂😂 I felt that...
Are you sure he was autistic or a sociopath? I listened to the song you mentioned and I'm ready to start telling everyone that has criticized my music choices and called it "butt rock" that there is now a new genre of music called anal seepage.
Oh, I LOVE this!! Thank you for existing <3
Same!
Love this. Love the representation. Hilarious and relatable.
I'm the 3rd one of the 4 of our lot, stimmimg the loop button 😂Great show mate.
Watched this with my hubby tonight. Laughed harder than I expected and it gave me practice with accents and repeating certain words you said.
hilarious
So many people are unaware of what autism is. It's autism month for awareness , acceptance and understanding
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 And also ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
😂😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤
fire show thank you supreme leader joe
Thats my boy spittin some 📠📠
Great show, Joe. I imagine it’s hard being the official unofficial spokesperson for us, but, I, for one, am grateful you didn’t leave out the dog jizz.
100% be yourself 😊
Saw Joe at The Stand in Glasgow. I really enjoyed the set. Joe has a warmth about him.
Don’t like jokes of spouses. I have ASD and do NOT find that funny at all.:(🤷🏻♀️
Wonderful ❤
I "wooed" in sync with the one guy in the audience 🤣
Explanation: Boris did a handshake which could result getting the v¡rus. It would be comparable if Diana did s€× with the AIDS ward.
You're funny and I like some of your observations. When you spoke about how autism is like being an airport hotel, I thought you were going to say people only stick around for very short periods. I do just find your show annoying politically. You may be genuinely liberal but it surely also helps that this society won't tolerate anything else. These days it's hard to distinguish genuine liberals/leftists from the average person who just espouses such views because they don't want to get cancelled. This is why American comedy is generally better because they have genuine political discourse where both liberal and conservative views can be expressed and there is a tension there which means comedy can be risky. In 21st century UK comedy there's nothing but soul-crushing conformity to liberal views, and silly hyperbole about the Daily Mail being literally Hitler. By the way if you do find yourself speaking for autistic people please don't say "we don't believe in gender". You definitely don't speak for me. Or if that is true it's that I don't believe in gender but in biological sex. I'm also not looking for "allies" ugh.
Looked it up to see if your coming to the US. Sadly, no.
Brilliant.
You should be a spokesperson for autistic people, feels like you are speaking from my brain.
haha! The power would go to my head but thank you!
I am at a loss to understand this... you don't like men's voices because they're too raspy and scratchy... but gangsta rap is what you use to drown that out..? That just does not compute.
I think it's the build up of lots of voices in public. The sudden changes in volume, big groups laughing all of a sudden etc it's more that mens voices are generally louder than the raspy/scratchyness. music (even gangsta rap) I know whats coming and it tends to be only one voice at a time.
Auditory perception in autistics can be very different from neurotypical people.
Now that's exactly how I would imagine your average sign language interpreter.
went to see you back in december 2021 with my also autistic best friend (in a hugely overstimulating comedy club). I know allistics watch your shows but they feel like they were written 'for' us autistics. nice to have something specifically for us.
Thanks! Thats so lovely to hear!
51:00 got to me, out of nowhere. I started tearing up because I don't think I've ever heard that perspective explained, and I wasn't ready for how much it would make a lot of things in my childhood make sense. Thanks for that, genuinely. It was also a very funny comedy show, I'm subscribing
same here! exactly that moment.
Potato waffels and beans in a separate bowl. Check 👍
Found this very funny, thanks. The audience seemed rather cold, but perhaps they were being quiet because they were listening intently.
"Loosen up" is the worst. Luckily, I live in northern Europe, where shyness and introvert behavior is sort of ok (although not always understood) most of the time. Having a an inspired person violently and self-righteously pulling you onto a dance floor and, with threat of public ridicule, forcing you to dance in the name of self-expression, love, spiritual freedom and all things extrovert is my idea of hell. More hips, mf, more hips or you suck!
A fellow autistic here from Southampton, don’t hate me too much.
