Something's wrong with the Flagrant Podcast

- In this podcast review I'm pointing out the main issue with the Flagrant podcast which is the lack of push back against the lead contributor Andrew Schulz. I've got a few clips from episodes with Whitney Cummings, Shane Gillis and Logan Paul to help back up my point. Ofcourse this is all just my opinion :)
#andrewschulz #comedypodcast #flagrant
Calling Schulz the most talented person on the couch in presence of Shane Gillis is criminal.
I think he meant most talented out of the regular cast, Shane is a guest and he seems like he's tired of those losers
Gillis is the guest. Hes not part of the podcast, hes getting interviewed.
Hi Shane
@@MrO8880 Hi Matt
Shane is one of the best
Super weird and crazy how he kept telling her to stop talking.
Yup! What's also weird is his buddies sat there and pretended that it was totally OK to do that.
Andrew low key wants that coochie 🤷🏽♂️
Bruh that clip drove me mad like people go on Tangents when they talk but they come back to the main point he was just shushing her every half word she got out of her mouth like does he want her to sit there and just answer yes or no
It was crazy. He owes her an apology for that one.
Yeah imã be honest am I autistic bcs I don't understand what is happening there like why is he saying stop like she's 2 years old and what is she talking about? I found this confusing in the sense idk what's happening
That Whitney’s episode was so sad, I felt bad for her especially because she considers him a good friend
I never watched that episode, that was brutal 😬
He gaslit her. He’s a narcissist. As I began to explore the comedy podcast world, it’s blown my mind the last year as Ive seen more of Andrew just how horrible he is in plain sight and people in general will douche on the people he fucks with more than him. Like the Steiny thing. Legit got dicked on by Andrew but Andrew has the bigger following so people ignored reason and sided with him. I’ve never seen that Whitney Cummings pod but god damn that was brutal and like she said, she definitely shouldn’t go back in that trap house again. And holy shit Shane was visibly angry about their bullshit. How anybody wants to continue to fuel Schultz’ career by watching this shit is beyond me.
@@dblackout1107 I remember last time he was on Rogan I had to turn it off because he constantly said "uh-huh" over and over when Joe was talking. People do that when they're not really listening to you but rather thinking about what they want to say, it's annoying. I'm guessing Rogan lost interest cause he doesn't talk about him like he used to.
Stopstopstop stop stop. You are just being emotional. Gaslighting aint real.
Yeah i couldn’t finish it. Hopefully she reconsiders their “friendship” after this.
The bit where Gillis defends folks with downs is the main reward on he gets a pass when telling jokes about them - he’s never talking down on them, always speaking of them in high regards and how he loves their love for life.
I'm pretty sure people have made fun of Shane for looking like downs syndrome, so he feels empathy.
His Uncle has down syndrome, so I can see why he’d find it distasteful.
With Whitney he sounded like a guy who was mad because he was friendzoned and he was being butthurt. That's how I felt the first time I saw this. It was really cringe.
To me it felt like an egomaniac that didn’t like that someone in the room was more quick witted and knowledgeable than he is.
@@michaelturley3457or more well read and cultures and generally knowledgable
@@tjc4085 yup same thing with Shane Gillis, he gets intimidated and jealous when he knows someone is more knowledgeable and well read than him. He’s used to being around idiots like Charlamagne and his cohosts so he gets intimidated and attacks people he feels inferior to.
I absolutely hate this term, so the fact that I’m using it carries a lot of weight, but this was just straight up classic mansplaining lol
@@Wooden_iguana14I hate the term too but you’re right.
Also... Shane OWNED shulz that whole pod.
Because he’s 10x the comedian and not stuck in a character or a complete egomaniac
I think shulz thinks it’s hypothetical because he has material on Down syndrome.
@@Dirtymoney135you mean hypocritical?
Shane is always the butt of the joke when shane make jokes about people with down syndrome however when schultz did it the people with down syndrome were the butt of the joke even though he claimed it was shane
It was a low bar. It's obviously insulting to the ones in the video. As usual the crew went along with it
To me, it's an ego problem. The very first time I saw the new studio I felt weird, all previous studios had this humble 'hanging out with friends' vibe. Nobody took themselves too seriously and that was the best part, in fact the reason why I watched the show. Now Andrew takes himself too seriously, his "psychoanalysis" is the truth and you're being defensive if you're denying it. Andrew holds Patrice O'Neal in high regards, but I feel like Patrice would roast and dismantle Andrew's ego if he was here right now.
Great Take. I used to listen to them back then cus It was just dudes hanging out comedy nothing to serious. Now its just listening to how successful and important they are.
@@amirfam5219 Same thing happened to Tom Segura. Now we just hear about how well he's doing, how much money he has, what cars he just bought. People change once they get a little money.
Schulz got propped up by some other podcasters and comedians, and thinks he is better than he really is because he became famous too early. It's not quite Brandon Schaub levels of bad, but his talent-to-fame ratio isn't good and this is the result.
He needs to grow as a comic. He needs to go through the gauntlet. If he popped off 5 years after he did he would be absolutely unstoppable. But sadly, he cut the line and now we get insecurity, ego, and anti-funny.
I really hate when people bring up Patrice assuming how he would feel about XYZ but yes, on this one, Patrice would absolutely HATE andrew. Andrew is the exact opposite of.everything.Patrice was. These guys think cause they speak out against "cancel culture" they have integrity but the reality is that railing against.cancel culture at.this point is just window dressing for these losers to act like theyre rebellious. No one out of.rogans crew besides rogan himaelf.has ever said anything dangerous
"You're being defensive if you're denying it" is a bad argument because you can be defensive because they're attacking you in things that true.
Andrew kinda tapping Whiteny's knee with his foot to get her to be quiet told me all I needed to know about him as a human being
Bro I didn’t even peep that subtlety.. dude spoke with Huberman for an hour and thinks he’s a psychologist
Hes arrogant
If anyone wants the timestamp, here ya go 6:17
Andrew has let power get to his head.
Money**
He knows these are real comedians, and being aggressive to them makes him feel big.
He had a brain melt after Chappelle's comments on Rogan.
Absolute power corrupts absolutely
He's been like that for a while actually. Charlamagne and him had a minor falling out/disagreement a few years ago because of how he interacts with people (certain types) and they aired it out on Brilliant Idiots. Hopefully he stays on track
I'd say his perception that he has power is the issue. He doesn't have power, he's just another comedian, with another podcast.
Schulz just needs to take a chill pill on analyzing every facet of everything. I don’t need a play by play breakdown of how a conversation is going and his opinion on what his guest is thinking when they say something. It’s too much
Whitney Cummings being who she is, is the only reason that still turned out to be a good episode.
Schulz needs to experience some ego death or something....
Except whitney cummings is a joke and you could tell he was just trolling her cause no comics like her they just pretend to like her and she has interviews like this all the time people just trying to send a message like bro stop trying to be like this weird thing your being it's not working that's why your career is what it is. Also logan Paul is dope, and Shane Gillis is annoying where does he get off talking about what jokes can be made. Like shut up bro. Andrew shulz is the the next goat leave em be. It's Matt rifes corny ass that people need to stop fan Girling over.
its funny because he already did go through that..guess it needs to happen again tho
@@consumev No he hasn't.. He just got high at burning man 😂😂
@@consumevmaybe just death then? 💀
@@consumevyea he probably needs to boof half an ounce of penis envy shrooms to break through
They were so outrageously, ridiculously, and cowardly rude to Whitney that not only did I lost the little respect I had for them but also deeply dislike them. Andrew's co-hosts are so weak and childish. They're cowards. And Andrew's mean-spirited.
The first episode with Whitney I watched was actually pretty good, but this one where Andrew and the crew seemed very shity and messy.
@Superbatmanbro Yes, I saw the first one, and it was pretty fun.
Hopefully they can look back and realize how bad it was
I'm not a big fan of Whitneys but I agree they did her dirty. I think Andrew's...recreational activities are getting in the way of how he handles himself on the podcast.
As someone with adhd rewatching him patronize Whitney at every turn was infuriating and disrespectful. I don’t trust that anything Schultz does or says is authentic. That haircut started the rapid decline in quality
Shultz is like a 35 yr old 21 yr old
Even worse, he’s 40 he just looks younger
Age is just a number. So what
@@user-qx2kh7fp4pIt’s not though. Nobody really thinks or believes that.
Schulz is 40 now. this ain't 2019.
@@brainworm666it is a number tho. People choose to become wiser as they get older. They dont just magically become wise.
Gillis was so Irate the foot tick and the lip bite, you can tell he wanted to get the message across. Shultz had a good special but he's ego has him trippin. "turn your phone sideways" was his peak.
Agree on the peak. Flagrant has become unwatchable for me it used to be good
Honestly he's just a typical New York douche 😂 they are all like that
His specials don’t compare well to Shane’s
Imagine Shane saying making fun of someone isn't funny. That says A LOT because he always does, in a very funny way. So yeah, they were being dicks
Any rational person would not think its funny. They are saying Shane looks like a handicap person and indirectly mocking people who didn't choose to have such disabilities and laughing at that but masking it as a joke. I dont think we needed validation on the fact that were being dicks because shane didn't think it were funny.
Pretty sure Shane's brother or uncle has down syndrome so that might play a role. But agreed
Shane is incredible at holding that line with real earnestness.
Especially because Shane is always on Kill Tony
@@todayisforgotten yeah, that's my point. He always does and knows how to make it fun and not insulting or condescending
I don’t like Whitney much but I’m ready to actually fight Andrew for how he treated her. That was so hard to watch! I’m legit angry now.
disgusting, he interrupts her over and over and then he says "shhh youre talking over me" with his dumb haircut and dumb mustache, so cringe
Weird
Agreed
Honestly, I can't stand her but darnn wrf was that?
yeah I was on her side the whole time
What they did to Whitney was really awful and I'm not even a fan of hers. Watching that entire podcast was a true test of endurance. Honestly, Mark is kind of the best thing on the show recently. He usually has the best lines. Andrew is a funny guy but his head has gotten way too big.
I think the biggest ego in comedy. The most at he talks down to guests is absolutely disgusting.
I feel the same way. I’m not her biggest fan but she doesn’t deserve to be targeted like that.
It’s crazy because I remember when flagrant 2 first started with Kaz, totally different show. I miss old Schultz. His ego has gotten out of control and he hasn’t written good jokes in years, it’s too bad. I don’t watch any of his stuff anymore.
Yea I feel since he’s gotten bigger he’s become less funny and leaned more into this character
The scripted crowd work that went viral made him lazy as a comic.
Schultz is showing his true colors. He’s always been this guy. People just took this long to realize it.
For real the internet is scary they make the wrong ppl famous all the time
Yup i realized this with steiny from the nelk pod but sadly alot of people took Andrew's side when he was straight up bullying him for not much of a reason.
Exactly. OG brilliant idiots days Andrew got called out by Charla and the fans for being too much of a contrarian. At some point it switched from contrarian to egotistical...
Alex becoming the voice of fucking reason, show after show.
Except when he thinks he can beat up pro fighters
@@Sam-bd7gpif that’s what you took from all of them play fighting solely for shits and giggles, then it sounds you like just want there to be actual drama as if you’re hoping for that shit. Like cmon they were all very clearly laughing and having fun, why try to make it something more than it is?
NPC take
@@Blancobytheway Alexx often talks about how he would beat any man in a fight, pro fighter or not, as long as the guy is white. Of course, he doesn't seem delusional for real, so I take that as him joking around. So just saying, Alexx has said some things aside from the Dillon Danis episode that this commenter may be referring to. I like Alexx though, whether he's joking or not.
@@CoreyMeagherhe never said he can beat any white fighter where did you get that from?
During the Whitney episode the whole time it just felt like he was trying to make her cry on camera. I remember their was one point in that episode where she was talking about wanting more interactions with her friends to be on camera less and just be real. That convo should’ve just been them having fun maybe touch on the sore subject and then they go out to eat later just to hang and talk.
I think we're watching his ego increase in real time
Don't feel bad for her. She's the grifter that did what she could to destroy innocent mens lives during the metoo bullshit and kicked plenty of people while they were down. Her ep was one of the few Flagrant episodes I deliberately skipped. I can't stand that vile disgusting woman.
@@TheGoodRantDude you're just showing you haven't watched Flagrant for very long. Andrew has always had a big ego since day 1, it's not increasing, you're a new fan that's just now noticing it.
And the exact dynamic you complain about in this video with the giggle squad is exactly what made the pod so big. It's the collective sense of humour between the 3 comedians led by Andrew. That's exactly what Flagrant is and has always been. You don't have to like that fact, but nobody forces any of us to watch podcasts we don't like.
@@ihateusernamesgrrrI think you just showed you don’t watch, Andrew did not have this big of an ego when he was in the crowd work insta story phase in life, the pod was fire back then, the roasts were good and his friends felt like they could make fun of Andrew, that hasn’t been in the show since Covid
@@burtreynolds8030then stop watching flagrant l mean they still clear a million views easy so lots of people including me still love flagrant
I normally hate these type of videos but you kinda nailed it. And I really like Andrew and his comedy but you didn't miss on this. Great job.
Appreciate it!
The trouble with Andrew is, he became a pioneer in standup comedy marketing and blew up as a result - deservingly so I might add. But the pitfall of that was it got straaaaight to his head! Add a few JRE appearances and his ego blew up 10-fold! The man compared himself to Michael Jordan after The Last Dance aired ffs and I remember his band of merry yes-men just stood by without checking him... It's too bad coz he was insanely funny at one point!
Agreed! He needs to be checked. His ego has run completely wild.@@imranvp
@@imranvpno he was not a pioneer of anything. He got famous during COVID when everyone was locked down with his funny videos. He didn’t do anything out of the ordinary. Right place right time.
Andrew is such a try-hard. Especially when he tries to use the vernacular of a teenager bc he thinks that’s cool or in. Super annoying.
I’ve never been the one to say someone seems like “the money has gotten to their head”, but the dynamic truly looks that way. Schultz has seemed to become a person that’s hard to give pushback to, and the crew seems to have went from friends to servants.
Like watching a Joe Budden podcast
Yeeee it does give Joe Budden vibes!
I’ve definitely started noticing that Andrew changed little bit of the infamous Show and now Is being a jerk sometimes .
Fr. Shane did make fun of “epiphany Shultz”.
Sounds like it’s a known thing in the comedy circles now. Hopefully he recognizes that’s he’s switched up with his larger platform. When he wants to do jokes and bits on flagrant and mark, Alex and Dov team up on him it’s pretty hilarious.
damn...i cant listen to him asking a question, then literally wont let them answer...its like listening to CNN ask Trump a question...
I genuinely wonder if Andrew either has or is developing some sort of legit mental disorder. His brother is extremely bipolar and pretty much crazy and his dad sadly has substantial mental decline so its in the gene pool.
It's the molly/mdma. Messing him up
@Landguy500 maybe a combination. He clearly has a lineage of severe mental disorders and usually drugs make those surface much quicker and much more intensly
@menwithven8114 you can tell he's pulled between being the Edgy Comedian/commentator and the Mdma Burning Man feel the love energy.
If he has mental problems running in the family he better chill with the Molly and drugs.
@Landguy500 yeah years ago he would habe his brother on occasionally and he's extremely bi polar! Like he tries to fight people and shit and now I haven't heard him even mention his brother in years. His dad has alzheimers or something so yeah there's 100% something probably genetic in his family that makes them predisposed to mental disorders
@Landguy500 the pull between edgy comic and loving mdma guy could also be called something else...bi polar
I've been having feeling the same for so long... they should stop with the guest for a mounth or two and bring back healthy tension between the crew because it's getting out of hand. At this point, I watch out of habit more than anything else
I stopped watching shortly after they made the move to the new set. The whole show changerd
I can't remember the last time I laughed out loud at a flagrant episode
@@TheGoodRantthe patreon has me laughing out loud almost evey ep
Yeah I've been a fan for a while and I pay for the patreon and sometimes I skip the regular eps and just listen to the patreon at this point cause it's just the guys. The guest thing just doesn't always work, I understand what they're trying to do but the best episodes are when it's just the 4 guys busting balls
@@clintlasher8436last time I watched was the joe rogan episode.
Shanes face doesnt ever get that red and his material isn't meant to mock anyone with downs like that. Hes actually a really big supporter in an unironic way and these goons thought it was the opposite and it visibly upset him. Flagrants done
Well said 👏
If I was Whitney I would’ve walked tf out. She’s an adult getting talked to like a kid
i think she understands that walking off doesn't translate well.. she won me over with this and her showing up to SkankFest
I used to enjoy Flagrant until they mistook the meaning name of the show to be 'intolerable'. Schulz has become his own genre of deranged narcissism. I don't know how he can think his schtick is even funny or 'controversial' in the way that he desperately wants it to be. But Akash, who thinks he's way funnier as well as righteous than he tangibly is, and Mark, whose presence on the show is inexplainable because he's a human ad lib machine, have just risen through the ranks of everyone I actively strive to avoid on the Internet and IRL.
It's a shame to see the pod go down this path.
mark is there for them to say stuff on blacks and be in the clear he does nothing cuz he dont gotta hes one of the most important members because of his skin...mark the only one of them wit nuts anyway
@@user-ee8zl8lp3uget your facts in order before you jumb on the hate train mark isn't black that's Alex you fool
Given that Shane Gillis' uncle has down syndrome, if I were him I would also think that wasn't cool. And its not, really.
The way Shultz blew up gave him a serious god complex I miss the humble Shultz. Sometimes watching your favorite comedians gets really sad when you see who they turn into. Or maybe it's how they always have been
Money brings out who you truly are
Sad is exactly how describe the situation. Hopefully he realizes soon...
Andrew acts this way when he’s threatened
I agree. I think he feels threatened by Shane for good reason.
I might be wrong, but I think they made their name by being outrageous and now, when a guest on the podcast is chill, they can't just sit there and go with the flow. Especially Schultz. And I also feel they're intimidated when a guest might be funnier than they are, because there was alot of aggressive energy and off-the-charts cringiness when Louie was a guest too. I hadn't seen the Whitney episode, that was hard to watch. It's embarrassing at this point.
I swear it all started with akash not getting his own chair.
🤣🤣
I almost disliked this video for having to watch this episode again
Flagrant has been really unwatchable lately to me. Thank you for highlighting why.
| known of Andrew since mtv guy code. saw him advance thru the alley oop from Charlamagne. He is funny. as always, a few things are happening at the same time but imho the main bits are these...
as commonly happens, Andrew is trapped between his persona and who he actually is at the moment. that's the subtext of whats happening in most of his worst moments and especially in the Whitney ep. via both of them, they are(were?) friends. he knows that she knows. she saw the oddish semi-inappropriate vibe he was on & tolerated it for a bit, tried to pivot, but ultimately then countered with quips that we caught & some that were just for him and some combination of his admitted crippling insecurities flared and he locked in on trying to make her cry. as one does.
As for the pod itself, if we assume wat the pod has turned into is peak trolling and it’s an iykyk nod and wink to the fans whove seen all iterations of the pod and "get it", then the reality is that this comes at the expense of the funny. the pod is objectively no where near as funny as it was or as it could be. If the objective is money and success, then there's no issue, but once the funny is diminished, the clock has started.
Yea I used to be a fan of the early pod and early brilliant idiots before he got bigger than CTG. Like you said, I don’t feel like I know who he is anymore, I want to say the game got to his head but I don’t know him personally, so I’m not sure if that’s the case.
I feel smarter after reading your comment .. well said dude
That was well said.
Dude, love this channel. That Whitney episode was horrible. And I’m not a Whitney fan. It felt like he was trying to diagnose her.
That was creepy as fuck. I can't believe she didn't walk out.
Imagine a room where Whitney isn't being the most annoying person. It's such an incredible feat from Schulz.
Schultz and Charla both changed for the worst.
why Charla though
brilliant idiots is fire every episode
There’s so many comedian podcast analyzer channels out there now lol
Right! I remember when Comedy Hype CZcams channel wasn’t even really a thing yet either and now there’s so much channels dedicated to stand up comedy news. So cool
Content begets more content. Its all a loop
I used to be a big fan but now if I see a new video posted I probably won't even watch it because Schultz things too big of himself lately has been putting people down. And yes, I agree Alex is more reasonable
Brilliant Idiots has a better dynamic because Andrew isn't the big dog in the room
That Whitney bit is wild. Him saying stop stop stop like that … wooooowwww
It was hard to watch!
I can’t stand flagrant and all the fake laughing. It’s exhausting and I wanna attempt to watch another episode. Just watching this was hard I was embarrassed for myself. What did they call that? Secondhand embarrassment.
AKA Cringe.
I think andrew thinks hes qualified to give his friends free therapy.
Glad I’m not the only one who noticed it’s Andrew and a bunch of yes men. He’s just got cornier and cornier the past couple years
Not yes men...it's literally comedy. Not actual takes to go on with lufe about.
You nailed it. The cuts from the Whitney episode were crrrrringe.
As annoying as Whitney is it was 4 vs. 1 for over an hour until Schlitz turned therapist.
@TheGoodRant This video was weird asf 😂 You hated on them for 10 mins, edited clips outta context to make them look bad, Then said “I’m a HUGE FAN of the show”
Shane Gillis was being sarcastic
He’s joking but he’s telling the truth it’s weird to mock retarded people
Yeah, a lot of people are blowing this out of proportion and got me questioning peoples ability to read /understand social interactions
Idk that last part he didn't seem too happy if you look at his face. Maybe he's just being incredibly dry in his delivery but have to admit the Whitney Cummings one was rough.
@@noobslayer10101 that’s his humor. Fs the Whitney one was tough
@@mandoloriansoju3841in a way but not really that Whitney episode was pretty bad and Shane also has multiple family members with Down syndrome and has owns a coffee shop with them as staff
ive only been able to watch a couple episodes of Flagrant because it always felt like the whole thing was just designed to be an ego boost for Andrew. It is somewhat comforting to see im not alone in that thought
Schulz has quite the ego. He seems to get really offended and evidently is massively sensitive. Aside from these examples, the Nelk podcast was really quite bizarre and again just highlights how insecure he is and how he is a bit of a bully. It's a strange one. I don't get it to be honest.
you have no clue what your talking about my guy. That Nelk podcast was a joke and they were severly under prepared and 2 of them had no clue who andrew even was.
@@McMonkeyMan412 The Nelk guys are idiots. That's a given. That's not my point though. My point is that Schultz is a sensitive soul who has quite a vindictive streak. He tries to disguise some of those feelings with his comedy but it quite overtly doesn't work.
@@McMonkeyMan412 ur delusional mate
I agree about his ego but that's pretty much the worst example you could have picked. The nelk dude Steiny was completely deserving of the gentle taking to Andrew gave him. He was unprofessional bratty and annoying
@@islabee94 That's just it though, it's the manner in which he does it which shows what he's actually like. Steiny might be annoying and bratty, but Schultz most certainly revels in belittling people and making them feel bad. You might think it's acceptable because of who he is doing it to in that instance, but it really isn't. Whitney Cummings is the most absurd of the bunch for sure. There's a pattern. If you've offended him or he feels like there's a slight made against him in any which way, he just turns into a horrible little douche.
Heard someone say Andrew is trying to be like Patrice but doesn’t have the charm which allowed him to have the takes and conversations he did, and there will never be another Patrice. Andrew’s behavior and actions all start to make a little more sense now.
Love the podcast, but definitely feel the same way. They are too scared to say/do anything that goes against Andrew. They are riding his coattail and don't want to mess it up. Akash is the most obvious of this.. any time Andrew laughs, Akash has to take it a step up and jump up and start slapping legs .. how obvious can you get? If you haven't noticed.. Andrew will almost always once per episode throw in him texting Rogan or someone else who's famous. He definitely wasn't like this in the earlier podcasts.. but I guess the more famous you get, you'll start acting like them too.
Spot on man! Glad I'm not the only one that noticed this
I like flagrant but sometimes it doesn't hit the same. That's why mssp is number 1 now.
Stopped watching Flagrant, they cant stop interrupting guests..
Wow shoutout to the creator of this video! Flagrant is a podcast I’ve been a big fan of for a long time and I’ve felt all of the things you’ve mentioned. I literally couldn’t finish the Whitney episode bc of how annoying Schulz was being! Great vid, you’ve earned a new fan
Thank you man I really appreciate this!!
I noticed this throughout the entire Shane interview. For example when Shane mentioned Andrew was in a bad mood when he called Andrew earlier.
Yeeeees there is some underlying tention there. It's was weird.
@@TheGoodRant Good video! You should definitely make another piece on it if it continues to happen.
First time I've seen Shane be a guest on a show I couldn't watch.
Either Andrew is trolling us with this character… or…
He should switch it up!
Schulz doing that to Whitney was great, she does this to everyone.
Spot on man. I feel like Alex got a bigger role on the pod because he pushes back and I'd bet that Shultz appreciates that to some degree. Hopefully, Andrew and the team realizes what's going on and tries avoid the occasional dickery. The Ego is taking over a bit.
Shit got weird when he made Alex kneel in front of camera as he forced him to show off his Rolex that Andrew bought him
I've been enjoying Flagrant Podcast until these several episodes where I'm sensing Andrew's energy quite too much. In these past they're been having fun with the guests. But now lots of awkward moments involving the guests in that podcast
Good on Shane for calling Andy out
Alex is the only one that keeps it real
Alex is a B
He cried on the style bender episode. That shit was straight ridiculous
@@nathanmamo3970 wait, what?
@@midwestmulisha820go check it out. (Fyi just look for the clip instead of enduring the episode). peak flagrant cringe imo
Hes also the least funny member, does it add up now? Lol
Shane gillis is by far the funniest, most entertaining, and most talented person shown in this entire video.
Alex being disagreeable doesn’t make him right.
His views are always strange especially the mother vs fiancé one.
Dudes a bellend.
Ever since the new stage it's been different in shelt even treats his boy to the right different
I never thought I’d feel bad for Whitney. But that was weird.
Shane handled it really well tho. I like flagrant too, and for the most part the shane pod was good, but the Whitney one? I’d assumed it was a bit.
This whole show went down hill for me. They used to have some good takes they would have serious takes on serious matters. Now they seem to just do the opposite i hate to use this term but they have a lot of woke ass takes. Also Al does call them out all the time but he can have some wild ass opinions at moments. Schultz can get a bit racist sometimes towards black people and you can really tell that bugs Alex a lot. When shit was getting weird in this country in 2020 i used to come to this show because i knew andrew was gonna call out celebrities and politicians i knew he was gonna say what i was thinking. Now he just seems to agree with them and or just flat out dick rides like the logan paul interview. His comedy isnt even good anymore either. You can tell Joe Rogan was frustrated with him too the 2nd time he came on his podcast.
At first I thought this was a sad attempt from another insecure Hater but stayed open minded, watched it and you have great points. Bottom-line imo, Andrew is a great guy and great comedian but like so many including myself when I was younger, Ego can get the best of us. Him going after Whitney and Shane like that is pretty bad though, it was in bad taste.The Whitney one though, Wow I might have walked off if I was in her shoes. Andrew needs to see this Vid and he's an open minded dude, it might help him grow and mature some. Don't get me wrong he's typically good at ribbing people, etc but he does go too far sometimes, there's other examples as well; there's a thin line where it's just mean at some point and why, what point does he really want to make?.?. Send this Vid to him as a concerned fan. hahaha.
I should totally send this to him lol Hopefully no-one from his team retaliates.
The fact that he built his career, in his eyes, treading the thin line means sometimes he will cross it. Thank goodness for Alex.
He's not that young
Dudes almost 40. The ego will just get bigger from now on.
Giving him way too much credit.
The Whitney one was hard to watch, but I think the Shane one, Shane is in on the joke. I say this, because in Shane’s last Netflix special this September, he has about 10 mins or so of him self saying he looks like he has downs. And getting out of situations by pretending he has downs. His own joke were on the same level as Andrew’s jokes.
I think that might be different to watching people with downs dancing and making fun of them for it. He genuinely seemed annoyed. Even Mark, quietly said sorry after so I think they also thought he was serious. But I could be wrong.
You missed the point. Shane said it’s okay for him to make fun of HIMSELF in that way, a man who looks goofy in nature and doesn’t actually have Down syndrome. But it’s not cool when you start pulling up videos of people who ACTUALLY have down syndrome to be mean. That’s where the line was drawn for him.
Exactly! Shane pretty much called that out.@@Yanks123Fan
My favorite part was when Schulz ask whitney " you think i got tired? ". And Akosh says " Not at all " thinking that was a rap tag line got my boys back moment. When it was the most feminine time to take up for your guy friend . My man dont get tired. We got em hun
Schulz has absolutely shotgunned himself in the back of the face so fast. He’s become more detestable than Brendan Shaub
Andrew is starting to realize he's getting overcome by the new names in comedy and will now do anything he can to feel like he's on top.
Super weird how he wouldn’t let her talk never thought he was funny either
Alex disagrees every so often but it’s definitely much needed.
I feel the exact same way im a fan of Schultz but sometimes it can get weird... you brought up the perfect examples and explained why in a great way!
appreciate the feedback!
Schultz sucks and always has, people will watch literally anything
Whitney should have walked out!
I bought tickets to Schultz show 2 months ago. I feel so stupid now 😢
You shouldn't feel stupid. Hopefully it's a good show
Andrew can't help himself but interrupt guests and tell them how they should feel about their situation
I cannot believe how he treated Whitney. What the hell…?! 😡
Whitney's extremely unwell and Andrew use that against her, which was really strange considering they're close friends
He was very rude to her but also fuck her.
I'm so glad I watched this. I thought i was the only one who got uncomfortable. Thanks buddy!
I thought I was the only one too my friend!
Longtime fan of Flagrant and the whole gang but have been watching less and less recently and you more or less expressed the problems with the pod I've been internalizing. It used to be "everyone can get these jokes" but now that doesn't apply to some and others they go hard at... Alexx lowkey the GOAT tho
when you said this is a brand new channel I really thought you would have few videos up already but I see this is the only one. the content in this video made me believe you've been doing this for a while now. Keep it up looking forward to seeing more videos from you dude. I just subscribed!!
Thanks man I really appreciate this!!
I’m super impressed by Shane not liking them making of these peoples actual videos.
I miss when it was a sports podcast, or a comedy podcast, instead of Andrew trying to interview people and be a therapist. Because every interview he's trying to get a joke in every other sentence or psychologically evaluate someone.
Or maybe because they're like-minded, they tend to agree more than disagree with each other.
The Whitney clips were wild though.
That one episode with Whitney totally killed the show for me
Yea that was the first time I looked at Schulz different
I think you're right in that, for the most part they dropped the ball a few times with a handful of guests (typically by trying to go for/control a different tone than the guest is comfortable with). As well as, more often than not they try to bring out the best of their guests which can just come across as them pandering - trying to be a good PR machine for the guests; esp ones that are controversial in that moment - theres an argument there in that this is probably to attract more controversial figures in the future at some expense of their authenticity.
That being said, they are an entertaining listen, the group dynamic does shine: sharing fun stories, quips and energy but this shows at its best when it's just them - I think this sentiment also often reflects in the comments
Holy shit that actually made me feel empathy for Whitney whom I can't stand lol
Andrew seems like the type of guy to disagree with what you say and then repeat you like it’s a new idea
Sounds like a Schulz epiphany
The way he treated Whitney was intolerable.
I hate when comics say "It's comedy" for mocking someone, or making jokes about deaths...
Like find some other way to be funny, be a human. If you are making fun of people with down syndrome, and people say it's awful, why are they in the wrong for not laughing at the your morbid jokes.
Bill Burr is my GOAT, he attacks groups with his comedy, but never dead and disabled people.
(Yall should find a clip from couple of years ago when someone made a good joke about Andrew's mom and dude went nuts)
That's a great point. Shane obviously didn't find that funny at all. It's a real low point for them. I'll look into the mom thing for sure.
@@TheGoodRant i will try looking it up too. I remember seeing the video, but when i tried to find it again i couldn't. It was from way before, when they had microphones and desk
Andrew is an ego beast and is just fed by his partners. Just making the ego more ridiculous.
Just subscribed man. That was really a good video I’ve always been a fan of andrews stand up I didn’t know he had this side of him because I never watch his podcast but damn his interaction with Whitney was straight up painful to watch like he thinks he’s so much better than everyone it’s pretty off putting
Yea I think hopefully a lot of people are starting to notice this. Someone on his camp needs to be a real one and warn him
@@TheGoodRant totally agreed
It’s tuff to side W/ Whitney Cummings but Shultz makes it easy
Dude everytime I see the Whitney episode I just think that Andrew was fighting with his wife or Whitney was reminding him of his mom that he just wasn’t able to let her talk about anything that he didn’t lead the conversation into. It was like he lost control with the women in his life so he felt the need to control her that episode. That or the adderall withdrawals were hitting
I remember when he hopped on bad friends, and it was a good episode, but he told rudy to make fun of him even though she didn't want to and when she did he just shat on her and it was still kinda funny at first but he then kept throwing shade and remarks at her as the podcast continued despite obviously having her go quiet from the start, he would talk bad about her and who she is to the guys without even looking at her. I had considered him funny but that was so weird and it made me lose some respect for him
Interesting I'll have to check that one out
