Paula is the one comedian I truly hope to meet. Yes she’s hilarious and brilliant but her social views are incredibly powerful and needed. She’s the best.
I just love her voice. Paula has the quirky kind of humour I adore. The way she said 'I'll handle this' regarding the Louisiana ladies was sheer class. Loving her work.
Ian Brooke watch “what the cat dragged in.” Utterly hilarious riff with two audience members specifically. I read her wiki page. She has improv experience - really shows. Says “ I’ll handle this” in that one too. Very rich. Enjoy!
Had to laugh at her comment that the day Bush was elected was the worst day of her life .. either one looks pretty good by comparison with what we have today.. She's a great comedian!
My roommate and I wondered why there was cat fur all over my tub and the sink. She caught him laying in the sink with the faucet on letting it fill up with water. A couple days later she caught him in the tub after my shower rubbing against the side between the curtain and the side of the tub. He jumped in my bath with me once. Spraying him with water doesn't work. Every day: "Why are you wet!!!?"
Is your cat a Maine coon? they often enjoy water. My Maine coon used to love bath time. Sat on the edge of the tub when I took a bath . Put his paws in . God I miss him .
J C You know I have my suspicions. He looks just like a Russian Blue, but he’s very tall or long. He has quite a few Maine Coon traits, but not quite so much of the fluff. He has that Blue-gray, short haired , double coat of a Russian Blue. There is a feral cat in the neighborhood that I mistook for a German Shepherd, definitely Maine Coon material, that I think was my cat’s father. He seems to dominate this area. But yes, now my cat insists on accompanying us in the shower and the bath every time. I also have to shield the sink from him if I want to brush my teeth in peace without his head getting in the way. And when he’s done taking a shower with my roommate, he gets all excited. He sprints down the stairs, jumps into bed with me, and has to tell me all about how clean he is while demanding pets. “Ugh! Taz, you’re all wet!!” “YES I AM!! ISN’T IT AWESOME!!! LOVE ME!!”
3:31 Paula wondering why Florida doesn't just skitter off into the Gulf of Mexico. I would remind her that Bugs Bunny DID cut Florida off of the USA with a big saw in one of his cartoons. The mischievous scamp.
I am from Louisiana but I am from south Louisiana and am cajun French indien so I call south T’ Louisiana little Louisiana because we speak cajun and creole and indien French. We are wayyy more friendly than North Louisiana which was a culture shock and a different country. I moved there and it is where the drawl is. Now I caught it. And I lived in Florida with the same humidity even worse, and to s of cocodrils/gators. Said like ko ko dree’s. I hate those big old bugs too. Lol!
Gosh, remember when we thought the election of Bush was such a political low? When we thought THAT was a baffling sign that so many of our fellow Americans were choosing irrationally? Fast forward to 2016 ....
Aww poor 2009 Paula had no idea what was in store for her xD Bush getting elected wont be the most depressing day of your life for long; things are gonna get crazy, Past Paula xD BAM had to drop that semicolon in there!
Hasn't it occurred to anyone that the recent toilet paper shortage has to do with a national infestation of Florida bugs that just *_happened_* to coincide with the onset of Covid-19? 🤨
Ant Cannone And not as commonly hyped. Peanut allergies did in fact increase after the american Academy of Pediatrics advised moms not to let kids have peanut butter until age 9. They’ve finally realized it and now are promoting early introduction.
Paula Poundstone I totally love you... You're absolutely beautiful... I'm totally heterosexual...but I've loved you forever and I just had to tell you... well I hope this gets to you...
As a kid I would be so happy when Paula came on Johnny Carson Show ,got to stay up late to watch😎
Have just informed me that Paula Poundstone was ever on the Johnny Carson show.
Paula is the one comedian I truly hope to meet. Yes she’s hilarious and brilliant but her social views are incredibly powerful and needed.
She’s the best.
She’s great live, she interacts like the seasoned pro that she is. Love her eternally 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
Clever off the cuff humor, and the interaction with the audience is priceless.
She makes it an art form. Compare her to Seinfeld who has an obviously disdain for anyone who isn’t him.
This is my childhood right here. I still adore her voice & hair. :)
totally :)
Me too!

It's kinda her thing 😂😂❤️
I loved that also!
Love Paula's cat stories
Have you heard the "cute little cat stories" shes been doing on Nobody Listens to Paula Poundstone? 🐈🐈🐈😂
Had to laugh at her comment that the day Bush was elected was the worst day of her life .. either one looks pretty good by comparison with what we have today.. She's a great comedian!
I'd take 4 more years of Bush at this point
F
Fff

Of all the Paula Poundstones, she is indeed the greatest.
This was on a comedy special sponsored by Pop Tarts. I had it on VHS from sending box tops to Kellogg’s
Yep, me too! I still have it.
Holy shit that's so cool. I still have my Kodak VHS tape of it. It's mostly just the sound now lol

" do you have anything in kittens at all .. maybe a slipper with a head" lol
BRILLIANT !!
"I'LL HANDLE THIS." I love her.

“Crawled to the state line … “

You have to use a bat.

She is still performing in concerts go to her website. She always has a list of concerts for the next couple of months.
Gosh, remember when we thought the election of Bush was such a political low? When we thought THAT was a baffling sign that so many of our fellow Americans were choosing irrationally? Fast forward to 2016 ....
I was thinking the exact same thing
Aaaaand, that’s why you got Trump.
ant cough!
She is HILARIOUS.
I thought that was my worst day too,...now I know it was NOTHIN' in comparison...
Aww poor 2009 Paula had no idea what was in store for her xD Bush getting elected wont be the most depressing day of your life for long; things are gonna get crazy, Past Paula xD BAM had to drop that semicolon in there!
You stylish fella you
7:35 🤦♂️ Paula, your future self will be horrified on 01/20/2018 when GWB’s legacy becomes a distant memory of “better” times.
7:15 sound of a joke aging amazingly well
Hasn't it occurred to anyone that the recent toilet paper shortage has to do with a national infestation of Florida bugs that just *_happened_* to coincide with the onset of Covid-19? 🤨
I live in MS, I'm not sure why states border us either 😂
@mesa401 Well, yeah. He is.
She's from Huntsville, Alabama.

WHERE ARE THEY PUTTING WALNUTS ON PIZZA?! Thats bad for someone with nut allergies!!
Claudy0707 At the time of this performance, nut allergies weren’t a reality!
There was so. My best friend in High School (20 years ago) was allergic to nuts. They just weren’t as common.
Claudy0707 Very risky to not declare them - to not ask about nut allergies. Get yourself sued like that when aunt Bea dies from anaphylaxis.

How do I get to this from watching videos about Karate? I like Paula Poundstone anyway, so it isn't bothersome.
So that's all she got out of Louisiana is David Duke
she performs on npr
😁
The question about who is the POTUS really bums people out now in 2018.
She’s funny
is she irish?
2 people that viewed this are fans of Larry the Cable guy
I'll handle this? Watch out! ✌️
Paula Poundstone I totally love you... You're absolutely beautiful... I'm totally heterosexual...but I've loved you forever and I just had to tell you... well I hope this gets to you...
@imjeff3 Hey!!!! I like Larry th Cable guy, But I also enjoy Paula!
Disasters in institutions? ❤
Paula try petting your cat backwards sometime.
@2:20, David Duke is doing his job too. Louisiana is one of the poorest states. Which mostly consists of people of color.
How does she like Trump then? Yeah, just when you thought it couldn't get any worse.
L
She was great on homemovies, on stage not so much
The "nutless" president we have now is SO much better.
You would never want her to babysit your daughter!
I would, she is great
