Hey Friends,
This week I share my thoughts on Harvey Weinstein, his conviction in New York being overturned and what it means for survivors of Harvey and everywhere.
Harvey Weinstein is a disgraced film producer and convicted predator.
Forgive the Wikipedia of his life but I think it’s important to illustrate how high he had climbed and how powerful he was for nearly forty years.
In 1979, Weinstein and his brother, Robert co-founded the entertainment company Miramax which produced several successful independent films including Sex, Lies, and Videotape (1989); The Crying Game (1992); Pulp Fiction (1994); Heavenly Creatures (1994); Flirting with Disaster(1996); and Shakespeare in Love (1998). Weinstein won an Oscar for producing Shakespeare in Love and also won seven Tony Awards for plays and musicals including The Producers, Billy Elliot the Musical, and August: Osage County. After leaving Miramax, Weinstein and his brother Bob founded The Weinstein Company, a mini-major film studio. Harvey used both to secure a staple position for himself in Hollywood as well as lord over anyone who worked with him. It was this power he would abuse for decades that would lead to him having such a long list of victims.
Just naming a few who have bravely come forward, Harvey committed crimes against or was inappropriate with Amber Anderson, Lysette Anthony, Rosanna Arquette, Jessica Barth, Kate Beckinsale, Jules Bindi, Cate Blanchett, Angelina Jolie, Gwyneth Paltrow, Eva Green as well as 75 other women.
Thanks for watching. If you enjoy please share with someone who could use a laugh and most of all thanks for being my friends.

It is called talent.
Only two groups women can sufficiently trust, gays and eunuchs. 🌈🤷♀️🔪🍆
Research aqua tovana , the women tried killing bad man. Guess who didn't agree?
11:51 OMG DUDE, YOU FOUND IT!! YOU FOUND THE PLACE WITH THE REVIEW THAT SAID THIS PLACE IS A *CHAIR* XD !!
You should look up the stats of how often women get long-life sentences for fighting back against the attacker. It’s so sad that even when we get away the law will not only fail us but punish us for self defense.
That's what I was thinking too.
It blows my mind every time i think about the absolute s%*$ stacked against the women of history, and even the elder women of our society. And how, despite it all, women are more often than not the face of care.. usually willing to lend a hand and watch out for others.
I'm so grateful, but so pissed off that it is this way. It shouldn't be this way. These women are in my thoughts always, for the strength of their love and the endurance of their soul. Because, in a group, it is too normal for these women to be treated as disposables, when they are true treasures.
It is too easy to assume that we will have their love forever.
Exactly. When we're attacked the first thing we're asked is why we didn't fight back, but when we do we're thrown in prison.
One thing you should know is that those who defend wrong doers are in part wrong doers themselves whether directly or indirectly
That happens to men even more
I love how the phrase "This is a new idea for me too" has a double meaning when he says it.
I just got it lmaoo ME TOO
Oh shit
Oh daaaamn good catch!
daamn ....that flew past me
@@byusaranicole Please explain it to me
The more he elaborated, the deeper he went... the more it actually made sense.
Speaking of female gangs the Sukeban in japan around the 70's was a female gang started as a response to the Yakuza not accepting female members. At their height they were the second most feared gang in Japan behind the yakuza. So there is precedent!
In India there was a group of pink clad women who started there own vigilante police force. They hanged up and beat men who were assholes with long sticks.
There was an Indian too apparently, protecting the woman/young girls from harassment and rape
During the edwardian period they started making laws to control how long women's hat pins could be cause they just started using them to stab and prick at rude men
Japan, always setting precedent
Girlbossing
"Y'all acting like I'm being unreasonable, and I'm trying to help" 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
What are you trying to help with?
@@earnestinehardy6300 you're dumb
"I'm also scared of dangerous men..."
He brought everyone in the audience onside… to the opinion “women should just do random murders”
It’s a work of genius.
Had that conversation with a guyfriend of mine yesterday. Told him about my shitty misogynistic coworkers and he just told me he wouldn`t want to work with assholes like that either.
Glad we have Josh to speak for the ones that get ignored
That’s why i love this dude… he ain’t scurred! ✊🏻
Exactly
I am really surprised no one is talking about this. There was so much new when Cosby got out.
Sad AF really tbh
Who is being ignored? Not allowing an unfair trial to convict someone isn't being ignored. All that's happening is he's getting a fair trial, how is that bad?
I was part of a DnD group and one of the women was assaulted by one of the men. She said she was going to start carrying a knife. The DM ended up cancelling the game not because the guy attacked the woman, but because the woman said she felt she needed a knife. She's 5'3" and 110lbs while he is almost 6" and well over 200lbs. The DM said she should just learn self defense
Good God, I assumed you meant within the game's RP, but you don't, I'm realizing 🥺
Holy shit that’s an rpg horror story.
What are you people talking about?😩 My brain hurts!
Ahhhhhhhh
If that’s not in game I would stay tf away from that DnD group specifically.
Seattle here! Here's my question, how do you come up with great material so fast? Something happens, and five minutes later, you have a whole set of brilliant jokes. Blows my mind.
First time seeing talent? Yeah, happens.
no I've seen talented stand up before, his turn around speed is crazy. a lot of comedians take time to craft the jokes for their routine, to be this topical and to do it this quickly over and over again is nuts.
It's freestyle probably. Riffing and ad-libbing mixed with some loose preconceived concepts, just like a rapper
Btw...I'm saying this because I myself am a rapper who freestyles, not be cause Josh is black 😂
@@nameleszreviews5232ever checked out Harry Mack? freestyler on CZcams, who does live freestyle concerts completely off the dome, gets topics from the audience to rap on. again mind blowing.
The ancient techniques of awareness & critical thinking! (+ talent & hard work)
“I read a lot of history books I’m just telling you what’s gonna work” has got me on my knees
He ain't wrong
I'm calling it now, Josh Johnson is going to be one of the greatest comedians of our generation.
Here from the future, this aged very well
Already is
The millennial Richard Pryor
Agreed!!!
I been called it he the next David Chappelle
“Punch em’ in the nose Like a shark.. or.. whatever they say” 😂
Bruce Wayne's parents weren't shot at, they just ate alleyway tacos and to cope with the shame Bruce unconciously altered his memory
😂😂😂
It’s not just pure comedy, he’s seasoning his acts with some common sense and rational arguments. Pure edutainment for me!❤
Me also!!! He is so talented!!!
I just want to give Joshua "Ezekiel" Johnson his proper respect. He has been blessing us with set after set here on CZcams, making us pass out laughing, and Every Show Is Different!!! Most of the time when you see comedians on CZcams, you can watch 10 videos and hear _maybe_ TWO new jokes. Josh is truly amazing and I want to make sure he knows we appreciate that! 🤗🥰✊🏾👍🏾🙌🏾
💐💐💐💐👏👏👏👏
“I’ve read a lot of history books. I’m just telling you what’s going to work”
Truth
Judge: "who will be representing you?"
Me: The only man that *TRULY GETS IT* Josh Johnson your Honor!
THIS👏🏻👏🏻😂😂
The click of stilettos got me😂😂😂
Rumor had it, the click of Katie Couric's size 5 stilettos could make people run in fear and shut office doors..
A lot of us started getting hit on by grown men while we were in middle school. I wish the squeak of sneakers could inspire terror.
Hi Josh, I know there is a slim chance you read this but I was the guy who was at this show for my birthday. My friends and I had a great time! I would have liked to think of myself as someone who wouldn't get star struck, but that is exactly what happened lol. I had thought about what I wanted to say before we got to meet you briefly and then proceeded to not say any of it. What I wanted to say was, you're my favorite comedian because you're hilarious obviously, you are able to be vulnerable and you blend real world shit into your routines. Being able to laugh at our fucked up world makes it hold less weight. I've been watching since the "Catfishing the KKK" days, and it's been crazy to see how far you've come and I can't wait to see what you'll do next.
I love how all these other standup comedians are like "I spent valuable months fine-tuning and honing my comedy routine on multiple tours until it was perfect," and then there's Josh out there killing it in one with "here's what happened last week."
I think he had the chops to be a late night host.
I love your material but I thought I'd give you something to think about: when we see a group of men in certain conditions (night, you're alone. etc) the thing that's scariest is that it only takes ONE guy to make your life miserable or end your life because the worst thing we know is that the OTHER guys probably won't do anything. In fact, they might join in. Even if 4 of those 5 guys normally would never hurt a woman, they are very likely to just stand there if one of them decides to do something. That's reality.
That’s a fact! But I think Josh is aware of that for sure. He’s got an inquiring and curious mind and pays close attention to life’s horrible details. Nice to see a fellow Cassandra here!
Exactly and that's why it's so annoying when people are like, well 'it's not all men' because sure, maybe not every man isn't going to actively do something but for damn sure they'll let it happen.
What the fuck are you talking about?
@@hadrianhexe9603not only will most men not do any harm to women, men will definitely not just walk away and let it happen. If that is how you really think men are, you have the wrong kind of men in your life.
The thing is though men also be killing n fucking up men in the same way. That's the shit that doesn't get talked about in these conversations, Josh kinda brought it up there but yeah.
Also this isn't india, most dudes are not just gonna join in on a gang grape
"The click of stilettos...boy run..." 😂😅
Hi Friends! Comment where you’re watching from 👇

Amusingly enough, we women have also been reaching that conclusion, about male violence, Josh.
You're gonna scare the man...😅
@@LindaC616Shh, it's working...
One of the major reason for divorce was men saving men from women's vengence.
Women kept shoòting their husbands to escape domestic vìolençe.
I’ve just about come to that conclusion. Lol!!!
@@frozen7550 I heard that the suicide rate for married women also dropped significantly after divorce was legalized (might have to fact check on that tho).
I knew from his face beforehand he was going to say something wild like, “Probably killing.” 😂
"This is a new idea for me too." 😆
We'd have to talk about him if it weren't 😅
I think the only thing worse than alley tacos is gas station sushi.
As a staunch liberal, this is one of the most convincing pro-gun arguments I have ever heard 😂😂😂
The real problem is that if you are carrying a knife and aren't 100% trained on how to use it, it is very easy for the other person to take your knife. And then THEY have a knife. And you do not.
Did you see Nate Bargatze’s bit about sleeping farther away on the bed so you can practice your knife skills while the bad guy kills your partner?
Why wouldn't that person already have a knife of their own?
So now you got the Bad Guys out here trying to guess which woman with her Fremen Honor Knife is "100% trained" and which one is just wearing. Better than what we got right now.
#MayThyKnifeChipAndShatter
Oh your a killer, killer smh. Stay away from this dude ladies
So train?
Man you're on fire!
His writers are …
@@gorilla1371 Fire is fire, everyone feels the heat.
Leaving this comment after seeing the first 8 minutes.
This is undoubtedly your best set yet. I was taken by suprise. The way you tackled that dark topic in contrast and at the same time in line with your well established persona is of another level entirely. It brought back memories of your "Catfishing the KKK" bit, but with all the honing and sharpening of the years that followed. It's like seeing someone who always loved to dance, after years of hard training and living for that dream, come back with all the gained qualities into the natural ease of his love for it.
A true moment of happiness.
Thank you.
I remember reading a story about a woman in... India? (Italy? Iran? Iraq? Indonesia?) who was horrifically assaulted...
So she avenged her honor by cutting off his head & parading around town with it.
I think she ended up getting arrested after a few laps around town.
There is an Indonesian movie with a plot like that.
@@charybdis8113 ohh, what's the name of it?
This is one of the most radical and interesting truly feminist ideas I’ve ever heard. And I’ve studied feminist theory at the graduate level. What’s interesting about it is that it’s all just based in fact. And the rationale extends from there. And to top it off as always, he’s very very funny. Love the way this guy thinks. Thank you!
there are female gangs in other countries that carry out street justice on men that have harmed women. one is in northern India, they were pink saris and patrol the streets w clubs. can't remember the name.
Safety Tip: keys between the finger won’t work how it plays out in the head. Palm it like your holding a roll of Pennies with the pointy part toward the pinky
So essentially, using it as a shank?
@@clunkyinc.5156 you said it not me 🤣
That way is meant to be for slashing. Keys generally can't penetrate.
@@karlajaeger2082 not going to penetrate but it’s not going to hurt your fingers nor fall out your hand … put the key betwix your fingers and try it and if you see it still seems feasible to you
@@karlajaeger2082 it won’t penetrate but it won’t hurt your fingers nor fall out you hands … put the key between betwix your fingers and try and see how effective it really is … wolverine
I love to keep up with current events by watching Josh Johnson, his delivery is the best...
Love all the way from Iran

He has a podcast that comes out every Thursday!
Yeah like idinov said he has a podcast called the Josh Johnson show that slaps! Has tons of good stories and getting close to 200 episodes, highly recommend it!
@@avataraarowThat’s wild to be touring, constantly writing timely material, writing for the Daily show and a podcast! When does he sleep!?
I'll never forget finding a foldable knife under the seat in my friend's car and I was like, "How come you have a Knife in your car?!" and she was like, "How come you don't?"
You killed it on the daily show man
You are the one of the few out here doing it right. The funniest comedian that consistently uses their comedy to cope with the state of the world. Not to completely ignore it through escapism - but to actually make us laugh to help us cope with and through the chaos. Thank you for that.
2:45 A new idea for 'me too' lmao, that really got me
The double meaning 👌🏽
"You're acting like i'm being unreasonable but i'm trying to help" 😂😂😂
I’m not even surprised anymore. I’ve come to accept that this guy is consistently quality and always funny. Never fails to make me laugh!
"Level the playing field of general fear" my motto til end of days....😊 absolute gold Josh absolute gold!
Never clicked so fast in my life. JOSH IS THE GOAT.
Michigan here. Cue "Cell Block Tango" by Chicago on Broadway. Iykyk. 😂
I love the movie! If I'm feeling some type of way I'll put that on😅
“I’ve read a lot of history books I’m just telling you what’s going to work” - Josh Johnson
Can you please add to this bit about how women are being asked if they would rather see a bear in the woods or a strange man and we are picking the bear every time. Men are surprised because bears are “dangerous, unpredictable and can kill you” and women are like, yes but men are more dangerous and we have the stats to prove it.
OH yeah, Bear everytime please! lol laughing out of sadness.
Josh, you are amazing!!! As long as you want to keep doing this, we want to keep supporting and enjoying you!! Love from Nashville❤
Josh might be the hardest working man in comedy
we need a female version of Dexter😂
One of the first things my daughter did after turning 18 was to get a concealed carry permit and her dad bought her the gun of her choice. She had been hunting since she was 12 and she's a dead on aim. She has yet to find the need to shoot a person.
Sadly, she's most likely to be assaulted by a "friend" or family member. Not much chance she'll shoot.
You dont usually find the need. It presents itself in the form of an entitled asshole who doesnt understand “no”
I am continually amazed at how you come up with a 15-minute bit about something that was just in the news a day or two ago.
Me: “I have anxiety!” Me w/a weapon: “Actually I was just unarmed”
Lol same 🎉
Watching from Denver, Colorado, but lived in Austin in my late teens and early 20s… I have seen sixth Street closed. Not for the same reasons as you, but because I am visually impaired and got lost downtown one night really badly. It was quite the experience. Was too impoverished for tacos from the back alley food truck, but I can imagine the scene where that truck existed… Glad to see you made it out alive!
😊
6th St, the madness of 4th St..good times
omg i’m also in denver!
I haven't not considered it...
Man. Describing that alley taco trouble gave my stomach PTSD. I have never been hard up enough to risk alley tacos, but the nausea and wish for it just to find a way out is real.
I've seen you on CZcams for a while, but the first time I show you on the daily show I thought I pulled a racism and was like "no, I can't just assume 1 black dude that looks like another one is the same person".
😂😅
In another life I was a route driver for the company that serviced the UT students. One of my timing stops was a quarter of a block from street food vendors. One guy offered the most gigantic egg rolls you can imagine. But they were a buck fifty. But absolutely delicious. Would dig deep on Fridays and get one. Dinner Friday night and lunch on Saturday. The Hmong make the best. He was in business for 25 years in that same spot. Read about his obituary while living in SLC. AND that was published in a major East coast NP. And yes, the funeral lasted 3 days 💕 R.I.P. Mr. Han
dude you remind me so much of carlin with your meandering story telling, knowing there is a payoff coming, but not how you are going to get there. love it so much.
And just when you're lulled into the story a hook comes by and smacks you in the face outta nowhere! Thats when you know someone knows their craft, and why Josh is absolutely my favorite 'new' comedian. Back to the old ways, with new content, and a fresh take on things. Love this guys content.
“The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun..is a good woman with two guns!”
- Texas, probably
I know you joke about current events, but you also put stuff out there that needs to be talked about! You're awesome, Josh!
Definitely thought of “he ran into my knife. He ran into my knife nine times.” When Josh said think about it 😂😂😂
*Little history nerd moment :* in old medieval Scandinavia, if women of your family or village were SAed, it was espected and totally normal to go after the agressor, even as a group. Oh, and the man was almost always banned, which was one of the worst punitions ever, since it ment being rejected from your ancestor's and gods' lands.
I not saying it was the right thing to do, nor that wd should bring it back as such : it was partly because the assault was considered an attack on the entire clan/family's honor.
What i'm saying though, is there was justice. And everyone participated to hold agressors accountable. There were public trials too, in front of the land's lord and such, sure (they wouldn't decide on banishments otherwise), but men were keeping men accountable.
And even if it pains me to write it, the type who agress don't consider women, so men doing it, keeping the agressors in line, is the only way.
Us women cannot get this problem delt with without men. It's teamwork for everyone's best interest (except the agressors, but f them)
I'm not a woman, but I agree. The way for men to change their behavior is for men to police each other and teach how to be respectful, but the way for women to actually be safe is to be educated, heavily armed, and willing to safeguard themselves with lethal precision.
The only reason people aren't laughing harder is because of how right he is....
Love from Accra, Ghana ❤❤
Lots of love from The Bahamas ❤
I’m an Episcopal priest currently living in Northern Indiana (but I’m still a New Yorker and always will be).
Josh, I was waiting for you to bring in the French Revolution: rich people been killing peasants forever. Suddenly the poor start leveling the violence, start taking some heads. All the sudden we need a new system, cuz this shit isn’t working.
Hilarious set from start to finish!!! 👏🙌👊
The thought, idea and delivery insane
I love he doesn't do a mass produced, comedy buffet... it's a sit-down meal with close friends and I like it way better than most younger comics. Enjoy your meal. Also, timing I think Carlin would appreciate.
Watching from Jeddah Saudi Arabia
He's saying outloud what I've kept quiet for years because I'd be called crazy for even thinking it. He's right though. Like my Daddy always says, "drop em like a rock, ask questions later".
“Tell em’ I got shot.” WILD. 😂😂
This is gonna be solid gold I have no doubt 😅
Thank you for being both hilarious and intelligent
“If women start killing” might be my favorite bit by you. Reminds me of the “Arm the Children” bit by Christopher Titus
Greetings from The Netherlands, enjoyed every second, take good care of yourself! ❤
It’s crazy because the longer his reasoning went on the more it made sense and the more I agreed.
Watching from Zambia
Watching from Lafayette, Louisiana! Love your stuff
Don't get tacos at the food truck on the patio at the Austin airport 😂😂😂 you have been warned .
The Stiletto Mafia .😂
Tx- Would you choose the bear or the alley taco??😅
Bear. There’s a big chance the bear won’t do anything. The alley tacos are a sure thing!
Josh, you're one of the best comics around. Super funny material constantly, not just for a special.
I hope I get to see you live when I make a trip to NYC.
Much love from England 🤙🏼

Hi NubianGoddess8! Commenting from Washington, DC
So happy to have stumbled across these videos. You’re brilliant.
Ordering tacos from a truck (let alone an alley) earns you higher percent chance of dying. 😂
But that’s where the best tacos come from!
Worth it
I bet you aren't from California or Texas.....
listen USUALLY that’s where the best food is….. sometimes you gotta risk it
Josh what a treat it is to have smart, biting comedy that also has that underlying truth to it. What a breath of fresh air your comedy is and I’m so thankful for you to share it with us here.
Women who defend themselves aren't "crazy".
