I'm Sicilian. I love the mob stereotypes. My grandfather was a bootlegger for Christ sake. Doesn't mean he wasn't a good man. He owned some music stores. His booze in pianos. Shipped them across the country. Made a great life. Helped a lot of people. The demand was there. He supplied it. I don't know if he did horrible things. Maybe he did. But I love Sicilian mob movies. I love the culture. Hearing the voices. The mentality. The sentiment. The family before everything "a man who doesn't spend time with his family can never be a real man." It doesn't paint my ancestors in the best light. But as a Sicilian I know our history. We were sent to that island. We intermingled with other cultures. When we came to America Italians were treated like shit. And the Italians treated us Sicilians like shit. That was the times. That's why you have China town. That's why you have Jewish areas. Irish areas. They couldn't get work so they made businesses for their own people. We've evolved so much as a country. Proud to be an American. Proud of my Sicilian heritage. Love it.
Not only does Apu evolve throughout the series, he's presented in the most positive way. Dude owns a bunch of Quickymarts, is rolling in money, is an intellectual and he'a a ladies man.
@@Thedarkknight2244 thats the scene I absolutely love from Apu! By far just flat out intelligent and gives it to Skinner regardless of how he is going to take it. Then he ends it with the polite “Thank You, Come Again!”
After Rogan cucked with those two apologies I pretty much lost all respect for him (obviously he doesn’t care and others do not as well) But he was one of the last bastions of free speech remaining and he apologized to the mob and did nothing wrong What a cuck
@@pepironi992 well I agree he shouldn’t have apologized but I also believe in redemption. I’m hoping he ends up on rumble and brings back ALL his episodes he (or Spotify) ended up removing.
One of the GOAT jokes ever made was when Apu was asked why the civil war started on his citizenship test. Apu starts providing a high IQ nuanced essay of an answer on socio-economic factors at play etc. but to become a (dumb, ignorant) American he was told to just shut up and say "slavery", and became an American.
Just this month I learned that the Confederate states were a fascist collection led under marshall law. They held a single presidential election where only the absolute wealthiest people within the Confederate states were allowed to vote - something like 50,000 people out of the 8,700,000 living there. Education everywhere tells us that the Civil War was a war for 'slavery'. No. The Civil War of America was a war for democracy, and democracy won.
Absolutely. Being an Indian, I tend to laugh at the amount of self destruction political correctness and wokeism has done to American Society and the world as a whole. PS- Apu was hilarious.
@@my_father_sorry_i_am_lying_now actually there are similarities between apu's accent and indian, its overexagerated for comedic purposes, nonetheless its pretty funny.
@@xlmrami2729 indians speak clearly we have already more alphabets than your language and apus accent can't speak that's not indian accent maybe check your eardrums and hear some indians speak English before commenting here and if you are saying show me any public interview of indian speaking English
I am not Indian but I lived abroad dreaming about living in the US for many years. The episode where Apu gets his American citizenship is something I will never forget. He was a symbol of the American Dream more than anything
It's what everyone wanted them to do. You can't have a serious character voiced by a completely different person after 30 years on air. If you can't make fun of a character on a comedy show, then they have no place within said show.
Yep, just like Land O Lakes removing the Native American, but keeping the land. I've heard my share of 'actually racist' racist jokes, and it seems like half the stuff these woke ideologues come up with literally resemble those fracking jokes...smh.
This guy completely got it right. As an Indian kid, I LOVED the Simpsons and apu mainly because he was the only representation of us, one that really wasn’t that bad.
Finally someone with a fucking brain and respect for good storytelling and character representation. The Simpsons without a doubt perfectly shows comedically stereotyped characters while being respectful and self aware. The entire show is literally about the stereotypes of American society
@@my_father_sorry_i_am_lying_now in norwegian sitcom Borettslaget (translated : "The apartment building" or similar) they have pakistani/finnish/danish stereotypes , snob stereotypes , gay stereotypes , janitor stereotypes (Narvestad being obsessed with rules/regulations) and thats what made that show fun. So they should leave Apu be.
The first American citizenship ceremony I ever saw, was Apu's. They even implied that Apu had a higher standard of knowledge to become an american, then the Americans administering the test.
Which in fact is a bit true. Watch an actual ceremony and hear the depth of new American's knowledge of our great history. Better than most high school grads. no joke
@@robschroeder5377 It's true. I helped my ex study for her citizenship test. She's brilliant. I drilled her on the test questions while I was out running and working out. She scored 100%. Most Americans would fail it. She also knows far more English words than most native English-speakers too. In any English-speaking country. We selectively recruit the best and the brightest from all over the world.
@@TheWalkingRed I wish I was that clever and good at planning in my approach to relationships. I'm more of a full yeet, send it kinda dater. I think my current lifetime tally of lady stalkers I've become entangled with is like 5 now? It's enough that I'm not entirely certain of the number. And I actually used to get paid to protect celebrities from their stalkers providing personal security. Yeah. Like I should for sure know better. At least one of them was while I was still doing that work. In my defense some of them were surprisingly persistent and agile. Real creative problem solvers fueled by Herculean neuroses.
Growing up in an Indian-American household, my dad was a full time engineer and owned/ran 2 gas stations. He also sounded a lot like Apu. Is his existence "offensive"? NO, of course not. Much of the Indian community has been avoiding the oppressed "victim mindset" that a lot of other minority communities have suffered from, and I think it's been beneficial. I've never felt at a disadvantage because of my race, if anything I thought that Indians were at an academic advantage because of how tough our parents are on grades, and it helped me get into med school (another stereotype, I know....). I hope young Indian-American kids growing up don't start adopting the ideology that they are in an inescapably racist system that is always against them.
I'm Australian and there is a surprising amount of Indians who come here to make a life for themselves. My old supervisor came from India, had a family of 5 kids and was working 3 jobs at the time he was my supervisor. Not just that, he was very generous and would often do things to help me out, just because he could. He also sounded like Apu... I guess according to these people his existence is also racist.
I'm in an Indian, who grew up in India and watched Simpsons growing up. I was very happy to be represented in such a large and popular TV show. Just to give context- we never saw an Indian in an Hollywood movies and that I felt was like a start to something better. It certainly caused people to take notice and discover our people for who they are
Good writing and art are not limited by the constraints of language and cultural context. we have always had an appreciation for international cinema. Let’s face it, Hollywood is, to a large extent, the majority of international cinema. It was nice to see an entire industry become more aware of different diaspora. That’s all
@@DidierPeroni I think you are. Not the sa,e growing up in India and America. And Apu did nothing for Indians and did nothing for Indians in Hollywood.
There's Willy Fat Tony and Italian mobsters Rainer Wolfcastle and Uter Wiggum is an obese, incompetent cop... Finklestien the super nerd... Like everything was a joke on everything. They even call Bart "yellow trash" at one point to crack the joke that they aren't actually "white" Funny enough the "minority characters" were generally better people - Apu was an intelligent and compassionate business owner, Hibbert was the *good* doctor (Nick was the quack), Bleeding Gums Murphy was passionate and inspiring... Its sad that some people can't see this.
As an Indian who lives in India... I can say that Apu was possibly one of the best characters on the Simpson. Every character on the Simpsons is a stereotype : wiggum , Chalmers , flanders , homer , Marge , Marge etc... You don't see house wives going nuts about how Marge is portrayed. How real humans treat each other does not depend on how a CARTOON depicted cultural stereotypes .. that depends on how a person is educated to respect one another in real life
As an Indian living in India, i watched simpsons and was in fact proud of Appu. My support to Joe Rogan. Fuck Konabalu trying to gain mileage by criticizing something that was never really there. Very similar to what Dinklage did that resulted in all the Dwarf actors getting axed from the new Snow White movie.
Apu was actually one of the most positively portrayed characters on the show. He was a hard working immigrant entrepreneur who took care of his family. Meanwhile, the people complaining about the "negative stereotype" of Apu, have no problem with Cletus the slack jawed yokel, who is still on the show. Let's be consistent folks.
it's ironic as well that all the ethno-nationalist white supremacists out there will be cheering this cos they would do exactly the same thing if not for different reasons.
@@megaxenu753 Who are these super supremists? I'm a white guy and I've never met one. The few that ARE out there are probably so isolated from society, hence their views, that it doesn't matter what they believe they aren't hurting anyone. But more importantly, I doubt they'd care about a character on a TV show when there are a million indian dudes in shows. Even hypothetically if you were a super racist in the 90's, Apu was always an extreme version of a character, I doubt anyone was out there going, "Man they put a damn indian in my family sitcom".
@@JamesDeal1982 There are white supremacists out there, just as there black, jewish, arab supremacists. like you say not many but they are there. all i'm saying is that authoritarians always seem to have the same solutions to problems. the "far left" and the "far right", although those terms arent very good, always seem to have the same ideas. David Duke for example said he hoped Hilary Clinton would beat Donald Trump in the election.
In the classic Simpson's video game "Hit and Run", Apu was the only non family member to be a playable character and he had his own massive level. It really shows the love and respect the creators had for him in the Simpsonsverse.
And was still a voice of reason. Like when you ride with him in one of Lisa's missions, he can't offer a real answer so suggests Professor Frink. Who's able to explain every question except "Why I ever moved to this Jerk Water-berg."
No matter what skin colour you have, you shouldn't be limited in doing voices (if you performing respectfully). Especially if you are an actor and you spot-on nail it... You rock it, Hank! 🙂👍🏻
Even thinking about cheating is dirty thing ..in India cheating is just like killing other person culturally ...most peoples who are spiritualy active smoothly manage to keep their mind, body and emotions clean always
As a Sikh-Canadian, I have no idea how "Apu" is offensive. If anything, I'm offended that others are offended. Cancelling Apu is offensive. Just because a "white guy" did his voice, doesn't make Apu any more or less funny. Dude was on-mark!
Imagine asking an Indian person: "We'd like to hire you to do stereotypes of your native accent, culture and mannerisms... Yes, we don't care you speak fluently."
I only watched up to season 10, but Apu had the best speach on tolerance in the episode where Lisa goes vegetarian. I really didnt expect such a real, deep moment like that from a cartoon comedy.
As an Indian born and raised in the U.S. when I first saw Apu on The Simpsons I thought it was super cool that there was even an Indian character on the show.

This has nothing to do with free speech whatsoever. This isn’t the government telling people what to say at all. What does the simply about is companies and artists censoring themselves in the name of making money.
Yeah Apu is one of Homer's closest friends, he's in his bowling team, was in the B-Sharps with him, the Simpson's fight to keep him in the country when there's legislation that threatens him, he's a franchise owner of a big store, gets married to a beautiful woman, has kids, struggles with being a parent, is a real key part of the show, not just a stereotype punchline

I agree! Apu was one of the most interesting and relatable characters on the show. I can totally understand how someone feels offended by him. but as the guest pointed out, he is college educated, owns his own business, and has a wife and family. I always thought he was one of the more positive aspects of the show.
My high school Indian friend LOVED Apu. The episodes featuring Apu always had him rolling and laughing because he said Apu in many ways resembled his father personality wise.
I dont see why we cant accept things about humans are funny sometimes, it doesnt matter which race theres always shit that makes others laugh, we had a family friend growing up who was like an uncle but he was from pakistan and he would always say stuff that's considred racist but it was hilarious..
Unlike most "diverse" shows in American media today, Apu was an actually well written character with depth that wasn't added to the show for the sake of diversity. He was a firefighter, a grammy winner, a hardworking immigrant, a good father and the second most decent man in Springfield. Him being a "bad representation" of Indians is ridiculous. Plus he got off way easier compared to Italian stereotypes like Fat Tony or Scottish stereotypes like Groundskeeper Willie.
I still loved that one scene he left his kid in charge and the delinquents thought they'd have a field day and then he pull out a shot gun with a smile. That was great.
Except the accents, I watched the episode where Bart offended the whole of Austraila and I thought the accents were atrocious. Simpsons are normally on point with that ao it stuck out like a sore thumb in my opinion.
Wow, what a blessing! Our brother from another mother Akaash is on Rogan! So excited for your continued success, keep shining King. So grateful for Rogan and his kindness and always giving people an opportunity to share their message with his amazing platform.
@@KThangcrazy "so y’all just going to disregard the whole blacks are apes comments huh lol" Yes. We don't care. Now go cry to the ever-shrinking list of people you can tolerate.
I worked in a pizza place that shared a plaza with a 7-11. It was owned by an older Indian couple. Some of the nicest people I've known. To me, Apu was just a relatable character. I still maintain that the most offended people are often the most sheltered and the most secluded from the diversity that they demand.
These people will call everyone racist but they choose to live in a majority white neighborhood and make damn sure they send their kids to a private or majority white schools.
What's annoying to me is when a small handful of famous rich people, who happen to be of my race/ethnicity, speak for themselves, and it gets turned into countless articles of "South Asian community outraged." I mean - at the very least do a poll with a large sample set of the community first? 🤷♂️ At times, people get misrepresented by elite, privileged, powerful people in their own demographic. I never had any problem with Apu. Growing up, he was one of my favorite characters after Homer and Chief Wiggum. Most people are absolutely fine with laughing at caricatures of themselves.
@@lintoppthomas for the record, I am Indian and not offended by Apu but your comment really pissed me off...as if your some beacon of progressiveness that needs to be heard? Just stfu. Also, for the record, Akash you said it perfectly 👌
that word "community" is the problem. The Black 'community', the LGBTQ 'community', the South Asian 'community', etc. WHAT F****N' COMMUNITY??!! There's just individuals. Some can handle jokes, some can't. Some don't mind voice actors voicing ethnicities other than their own. Some do. Welcome to tolerance.
I couldnt agree more with this guest. I grew up watching The Simpsons and I never found the character of Apuu or any character offensive. Its a cartoon show, of course we are gonna have over the top stereotypical portrayal of a group of individuals. Its meant to be comedy, we have to stop cancelling people because some people are upset. This is not the way to move forward.
SCHOOL! The answer is I don't go! Why go? I am famous. I am famous. I have more fans than fingers multiplied with toes multiplied with teeth multiplied with ears. I am famous. I am famous. SCHOOL? No, thanks. CZcams FAME? Yes. Good day, dear mike
If whites were always aggrieved and looking for offense, 95% of the characters on that show could be considered offensive stereotypes. They could be but they aren't.
So Very True. If Ya Don't like it - Don't watch it. Also, if You Don't Like it - Don't watch it so You can have something to be upset about. I'd Rather be happy & watch what MAKES me happy. I Don't want to spend My life LOOKING for & FINDING things just to be upset about. That's insane!!
CnN amd MSNBC and 270 "doctors" and the "speaker of the house" will have something sifferent to say about that though, becuase crushing citizens under the weight of power is somehow more important. I think really we should cancel 90% percent of all white people in the USA especially every single household who even once was recorded by Alexa for using the N-word at home like Chris Rock said they did.
Been saying that for the longest. Apu is one of the most positive characters on the Simpsons. And I believe that he has been treated better than most characters on the show as far as storylines. The Ep where he takes Homer to India is still one of the best shows in the entire run.

Apu if I recall correctly actually looked down on Homer and others in the series. He'd scold Homer for stealing and being a bum in the store. He's actually very well portrayed as a guy with values
The “system” is in lockstep on creating social and cultural turmoil and collapse. They are erasing core American & human values before our eyes. When your govt & corporate entities are in collusion with the same agenda, things like telling you genders don’t exist, and attempting to bring back division, race issues and increased criminal activity in major blue cities… Then something is very wrong.. Thankfully, most ppl have woken up to our current climate
To be honest Apu is an accurate character. So glad Matt Groening created this near perfect character for your amusement. I love Americans especially the white Americans.

Well duh! Of course you wouldn't find him offensive cause Bumblebee Man isn't a stereotype of Mexicans. He's a parody of a specific Mexican fictional character. That's different from the Apu character.
Around 5 years ago, I took my first trip to India as part of a university-led cultural exchange. I made friends with several of my Indian peers whilst there and revisited the country several times. Of the friends that I made there, they would themselves do impressions of Apu and laugh about it. My Indian friend would repeat "Thank you, come again!" and then everyone would burst out laughing. Safe to say that they all found it absolutely hilarious. Being from the north, they told me that this was how southern Indians sounded when they talked and hence they used their impressions of Apu as a way to make fun of other Indians for the way that they spoke. My point is that Indians themselves do not take offense to such things and that in my experience, they are not the type of people who ever would. Also, Apu was always a very dignified character and definitely the embodiment of the American dream. I do believe this was deliberate on the part of the writers, as you can tell from certain episodes - perhaps most notably the one where Apu has to apply for citizenship and he delivers an emotional monologue to Homer. His character will forever be loved the world over.
Of course they don’t take offense to it, only white liberals do. They’re always the ones canceling “offensive” characters, mascots, etc. They get offended on behalf of other people.
Yep. Guess what? We do accents too. I'm Indian and let me tell you, no one of the young generation talks like that. But I had school teachers and parents of friends who talked like that. And it is endearing. As for the whole "stereotypes are offensive", Indian people have an inferiority complex when it comes to skin colour, but they also mock westerners for some of the etiquette and culture. And it is not malicious. I'm tired of this "lets assume the worst of everyone and never given anyone the benefit of the doubt ever." Grown ass adults gotta do better.
You hear reasonable people all the time. Usually they're saying stuff like "ooo yeah they'll kill you if you go there or defend that." He's being reasonable and principled, which is a nice change.
It's often that these unreasonable are loudest or label others, who may be trying to communicate in good faith, damning things to take them out of the conversation early, in my experience. I like to think of myself as a reasonable person but I admit I lack the spine to speak up a lot of the time. I am always worried about the fallout and losing what little I have.
@@venjek1990 Spot on! You don't hear those micro-minority (the cancel culture) sitting at the table next to you, or for that matter across from you, at a restaurant. Most people would look at them and tell them to shutup if not outright throw a drink in their face. You only see/hear them on twatter (look at a heat map of those users in the USA ...not surprising) when they're anonymous except for their closed circle of group-think friends.
As an Indian born in NZ, Akaash's reclaiming of the Indian identity & being so comfortable with himself (Victor mindest vs victim) is refreshing for us. The dotbusters were actually a racist anti Indian group but aren't discussed, priorities
The fact that he didn’t anglicize his name and is in an arranged marriage makes me respect him so so much more. Indians have needed a loud and proud Indian for a while. Akash is my guy. Love how he takes pride in his culture.
As an India-dwelling Indian, I can GUARANTEE that everyone I know around me who watched Simpsons loved Appu. That Hari Kondabolu guy was just a nobody hack that needed to ride the coattails of a popular character to kickstart his then failing comedy career.
@Shae the funny who’re yea so do you Shae talk for all of us?. Apu had a heavy Indian accent, which was to be expected from an Indian who recently migrated to the US. That was Apu's story. Many of my friends who migrated from India have the heavy accent. As an Indian this is not offensive. This is the truth. Stop fishing us for racial issues. Our problems are with the Colonial British powers. That is our story of racism. Edit: our
@Shae the funny who’re I don't know how you have come to the conclusion that it is exaggerated. Apu's accent is vaguely similar to the Indian accent. Moreover the character was introduced in the 90s where a lot of Indians did not have westernised pronounciation of words so Apu would have been a likely represention of what Indians sounded like at that time. I don't know how black face has anything to do with Apu. Black face is a clearly racial act meant to demean African Americans. Black face and its history in minstrel shows is what makes it racist. Apu and the Indian accent do not have any such background. Comparing a succesful Indian character with an exaggerated Indian accent to a dark symbol of racism doesn't do justice to black face and its history. I repeat again calling us snake charmers and street shitters is the racist thing. The accent isn't racist. I would compare the stereotype to a drink Scotsman or an exaggerated English upper class man more than black face. I hope this clears the difference.

@@nomad3976 You're making things up. Italians are definitely caucasians wtf. Italics' closest related group are the Celtics.

I've seen some of the palest guys ever here in Italy.

@@ThrasherGnar well…I will say that Joe leans left and is more on the compassionate, agreeable side in terms of personality. So he tends to feel bad a lot easier than at least I originally thought. He apologizes because when you are attacked so publicly as he is, the response is normally to apologize. He definitely didn’t do anything wrong here but he is on the liberal side of things in the traditional sense, but not with the woke, no. Still it was a really poor move to help them as he did by apologizing.
As an Indian I thank you for appreciating the character. Always a pleasure when we Indians (even if it's a cartoon character) can entertain westerners. We look up to you. Thanks.
@@s.chaubey8098 The character was spot on, growing up most of the corner shops which are the equivalent of his little supermarket were run by Indians. And the way his character was portrayed as hardworking and polite was accurate as hell. Go in another shop in the uk and the person behind the counter barely makes eye contact and the most you hear them say is something along the lines of cash or card or do you want a clubcard lol. Whereas those little corner shops which are mostly gone now you got to know the person that worked there, they knew what your usually after and super helpful. At no point watching the simpsons did it appear they were being racist.
I think The Simpsons handled the whole “Apu thing” really badly. As a “white dude”, I completely agree with Akaash. Apu was actually one of the richest characters who developed and gave a different perspective and it’s a shame the (somewhat justified) criticism was so narrow only looking at the “glass half empty”. For example, it was Apu that introduced Lisa to vegetarianism and the different views of Hindu culture. So now we don’t have that anymore, because his accent is “offensive” (and there are tons of bad accents on the Simpsons!) Yes, his character was a lazy stereotype in the early days in particular, but ALL the characters in The Simpsons are stereotypes - it’s kinda the whole thing about the show. It’s a parody of America at large. Just like almost everything in life there is a relevant Simpsons reference for this. Remember when Marge went on an anti cartoon violence crusade which ended up with the “Itchy and Scratchy Show” getting literally canceled. The lesson from that episode was “one person can make a difference, but they probably shouldn’t”.
Cartoons aren’t meant to be taken seriously anyway. We watch them because it’s an escape from the real world. Also love King of the Hill and the stereotypes. 😆
apu started out horribly stereotypical. first couple years apu deserved to be banished. ppl mighta been having problems moving past that. but then yes, he grew pretty well.
You're talking about character development and complicated stuff like that. Have you seen the way the left make movies? They know nothing of that shit. They suck, their movies suck, their books suck and most of all, their opinions and feelings suck.
A couple guys who take themselves too seriously complained about stereotypes and a million thoughtless activists came swooping down to destroy a 10+ year old cultural icon.
reasonable argument. The "over correction" is an insightful observation, perhaps an alternative option could have been done rather than getting rid of only Indian character
Apu is missed. One of the best characters on the show. Akash put it perfectly, I never thought of Apu in a negative light. Hank Azaria is one talented actor/voice actor
I'm mostly sad that I had to scroll this far down to see hanks name. It's not apu its hank azaria, and he has had way too much hatred pushed towards him, one of the best voice actors we have had in over 2 decades
Late to the Party but What a Brilliant Take on Apu! As a brown person myself, I was always on the fence when it came to Apu and did feel kinda misrepresented but this really changes perspective!! Damn it Akaash!!! 😂

I've been watching shows from the 80's and 90's recently because of nostalgia, and it's so obvious that, that was the golden age of comedy and the sitcom, no restrictions no PC culture nothing any and everything was fair game, 90-00's South Park, golden, 90-00's Simpson golden. Even Becker with Ted Danson, now that was HILARIOUS. Progressives killed funny.
THANK YOU Akaash, our family has always loved apu . He was the first real indian we saw in tv when we moved to Europe . Americas obsession with racism and PC culture killed Apu :'(. We want Apu back!
"We should all be proud of our parents." I'm not sure our culture allows that any more. Older people are only to be shunned and blamed for all the world's problems.
Time to stop treating their kids like shit then, respect is earned, pushing out an infant or jizzing in a woman does not make someone a hero, I disowned my "family", my aunt stole from me, my old man repeatedly attacked me, my "mother" refused to feed me from the time I was an infant until I was 10, in stead using my empty plate as an ash tray as a way to insult me, which I didnt even understand at the time. If people hate the ones who (are supposed to) raise them, there is probably a good reason, Ive seen worse.
Yeah respect for elders is a thing of the past. Not saying that all parents deserve respect from their kids, but I’d rather not have to see old guys doing the dougie or lip syncing the newest pop song on TikTok to show the young kids how “down with them” they are.
Never thought I'd say this, but so thankful for the existence of this podcast. I don't know how I'd keep my sanity if people like Joe got completely silenced by the angry left mob. What crazy times we live in. Keep up the good work my man!
It's small group of angry left. It's getting a ton of coverage because a ton of groups don't like the influence the show has. (that is why it gets the media attention......that and each skewed media has issues with stuff that has been said on the show) Fox gets just as annoyed with JRE as CNN does. Cancel culture is both sides too. The entire political view of the US would be hilarious if it weren't actually happening. I have a sister who wants to get everything for free and I have another sister that would blow Trump and her husband would give her pointers. Humanity (Edit: US humanity......I have no rite to speak on other countries, I have never experienced them) has become a cesspool of extremes. (this is a blatant generalization) Edit again: It always bugs me that most people seem to think youtube comments are understood to be US-centric.
@@Thulgore You say Fox gets just as annoyed as CNN with Rogan. I haven't seen a single Fox employee calling for Rogan to be censored. But I've sure seen CNN/MSNBC employees openly calling for it. Cancel culture may be on both sides but the overwhelming majority of it comes from one side. Anyone who doesn't see this is simply not paying attention.
I wholeheartedly agree with Akaash that Apu indeed represented "The American Dream". And I also agree that Apu should be returned to The Simpson's story line. EDIT: I'm a 100% white/caucasian.
@@eja1258 I believe the mindset you are presenting here is the exact one we are trying to avoid in society. Why is it okay to just people based off their background when they’re white but no other times? Do you not see how this is hypocritical and idiotic?
As an italian I'm so happy to see all the italian stereotypes, mafia guys, chefs, who cares. A world without jokes sucks
As a Greek, I love Greek stereotypes. My big fat Greek wedding is a cult favorite among Greeks. We all love it.
I'm half Sicilian, the mafia stuff gets a little old lol...but it's all funny. Stereotypes are true, and funny lol.
My best friend is Italian. I'm Lebanese. If he never hit me with a stereotype joke I wouldn't even trust him. The greaseball that he is. 🙂
I'm Sicilian. I love the mob stereotypes. My grandfather was a bootlegger for Christ sake. Doesn't mean he wasn't a good man. He owned some music stores. His booze in pianos. Shipped them across the country. Made a great life. Helped a lot of people. The demand was there. He supplied it. I don't know if he did horrible things. Maybe he did. But I love Sicilian mob movies. I love the culture. Hearing the voices. The mentality. The sentiment. The family before everything "a man who doesn't spend time with his family can never be a real man."
It doesn't paint my ancestors in the best light. But as a Sicilian I know our history. We were sent to that island. We intermingled with other cultures. When we came to America Italians were treated like shit. And the Italians treated us Sicilians like shit. That was the times. That's why you have China town. That's why you have Jewish areas. Irish areas. They couldn't get work so they made businesses for their own people.
We've evolved so much as a country. Proud to be an American. Proud of my Sicilian heritage.
Love it.
"They don't have extra melanin"
Not only does Apu evolve throughout the series, he's presented in the most positive way. Dude owns a bunch of Quickymarts, is rolling in money, is an intellectual and he'a a ladies man.

Lest we forget his tirade at misguided Skinner for his billy and the clone-a-saraus book idea
@@Thedarkknight2244 thats the scene I absolutely love from Apu! By far just flat out intelligent and gives it to Skinner regardless of how he is going to take it. Then he ends it with the polite “Thank You, Come Again!”
After Rogan cucked with those two apologies I pretty much lost all respect for him (obviously he doesn’t care and others do not as well)
But he was one of the last bastions of free speech remaining and he apologized to the mob and did nothing wrong
What a cuck
@@pepironi992 well I agree he shouldn’t have apologized but I also believe in redemption. I’m hoping he ends up on rumble and brings back ALL his episodes he (or Spotify) ended up removing.
One of the GOAT jokes ever made was when Apu was asked why the civil war started on his citizenship test. Apu starts providing a high IQ nuanced essay of an answer on socio-economic factors at play etc. but to become a (dumb, ignorant) American he was told to just shut up and say "slavery", and became an American.
Now which way to the welfare office
The joke aged extremely well especially considering what academics today will say.
Just this month I learned that the Confederate states were a fascist collection led under marshall law. They held a single presidential election where only the absolute wealthiest people within the Confederate states were allowed to vote - something like 50,000 people out of the 8,700,000 living there.
Education everywhere tells us that the Civil War was a war for 'slavery'. No. The Civil War of America was a war for democracy, and democracy won.

In the name of racial justice they removed the most prominent “minority” from the show completely. The irony is beyond satire.

It's what everyone wanted them to do. You can't have a serious character voiced by a completely different person after 30 years on air. If you can't make fun of a character on a comedy show, then they have no place within said show.

This guy completely got it right. As an Indian kid, I LOVED the Simpsons and apu mainly because he was the only representation of us, one that really wasn’t that bad.
You can't relate because you grew up in India. It is very different when you grow up in America.
Mr. Simpson, your chance to become a hero is over, you can come out of the chips.
Finally someone with a fucking brain and respect for good storytelling and character representation. The Simpsons without a doubt perfectly shows comedically stereotyped characters while being respectful and self aware. The entire show is literally about the stereotypes of American society
why is being respectful and self aware?
Apu was my favorite character. The re t that Hank Azaria did the voice so we'll is just kudos to him. And it's a positive character.

The first American citizenship ceremony I ever saw, was Apu's.

Great history rofl up have no history what not even 300 years
Growing up in an Indian-American household, my dad was a full time engineer and owned/ran 2 gas stations. He also sounded a lot like Apu. Is his existence "offensive"? NO, of course not. Much of the Indian community has been avoiding the oppressed "victim mindset" that a lot of other minority communities have suffered from, and I think it's been beneficial. I've never felt at a disadvantage because of my race, if anything I thought that Indians were at an academic advantage because of how tough our parents are on grades, and it helped me get into med school (another stereotype, I know....). I hope young Indian-American kids growing up don't start adopting the ideology that they are in an inescapably racist system that is always against them.
That's king shit bro
Well tell that to Kal Penn and the guy that made the documentary against Apu.
Good on you for thinking this way.
I'm Australian and there is a surprising amount of Indians who come here to make a life for themselves. My old supervisor came from India, had a family of 5 kids and was working 3 jobs at the time he was my supervisor. Not just that, he was very generous and would often do things to help me out, just because he could. He also sounded like Apu... I guess according to these people his existence is also racist.
Good for you brother!
Apu is literally an OG of the Simpsons... a founding member and will always be associated with some of the best episodes they ever wrote.
I'm in an Indian, who grew up in India and watched Simpsons growing up.
I was very happy to be represented in such a large and popular TV show.
Just to give context- we never saw an Indian in an Hollywood movies and that I felt was like a start to something better.
It certainly caused people to take notice and discover our people for who they are
Didn't think you guys cared too much about representation in Hollywood when Indian cinema is so strong?
Good writing and art are not limited by the constraints of language and cultural context.
we have always had an appreciation for international cinema.
Let’s face it, Hollywood is, to a large extent, the majority of international cinema.
It was nice to see an entire industry become more aware of different diaspora.
That’s all
Huge difference between growing up in India and growing up in America. You wouldn't be able to relate.
@@mkhanman12345 aren’t you missing the point a little bit?
@@DidierPeroni I think you are. Not the sa,e growing up in India and America. And Apu did nothing for Indians and did nothing for Indians in Hollywood.
As a Scotsman I laugh everytime Willys on screen, it’s funny. It’s not offensive BECAUSE ITS A CARTOON
I thought you were going to say it's not offensive because it's true.
There's Willy
Fat Tony and Italian mobsters
Rainer Wolfcastle and Uter
Wiggum is an obese, incompetent cop...
Finklestien the super nerd...
Like everything was a joke on everything.
They even call Bart "yellow trash" at one point to crack the joke that they aren't actually "white"
Funny enough the "minority characters" were generally better people - Apu was an intelligent and compassionate business owner, Hibbert was the *good* doctor (Nick was the quack), Bleeding Gums Murphy was passionate and inspiring...
Its sad that some people can't see this.
Damn Scots! They ruined Scotland!!
You'll doo fookin nootin
scots are hardly offended and have the crudest humor anyway (if youre able to understand them that is)
As an Indian who lives in India... I can say that Apu was possibly one of the best characters on the Simpson.
Every character on the Simpsons is a stereotype : wiggum , Chalmers , flanders , homer , Marge , Marge etc... You don't see house wives going nuts about how Marge is portrayed.
How real humans treat each other does not depend on how a CARTOON depicted cultural stereotypes .. that depends on how a person is educated to respect one another in real life
Start a petition there then, it'd be impossible to ignore if its coming right from the heart of Indians
The thing is, housewives will go nuts very soon. Give them time.

My support to Joe Rogan.
Fuck Konabalu trying to gain mileage by criticizing something that was never really there. Very similar to what Dinklage did that resulted in all the Dwarf actors getting axed from the new Snow White movie.
"Apu represented the American Dream" is so goddamn right.
Apu was actually one of the most positively portrayed characters on the show. He was a hard working immigrant entrepreneur who took care of his family. Meanwhile, the people complaining about the "negative stereotype" of Apu, have no problem with Cletus the slack jawed yokel, who is still on the show. Let's be consistent folks.
Preach
Cletus was white. It's okay to make fun of white people. Not other races...
it's ironic as well that all the ethno-nationalist white supremacists out there will be cheering this cos they would do exactly the same thing if not for different reasons.
@@megaxenu753 Who are these super supremists? I'm a white guy and I've never met one. The few that ARE out there are probably so isolated from society, hence their views, that it doesn't matter what they believe they aren't hurting anyone. But more importantly, I doubt they'd care about a character on a TV show when there are a million indian dudes in shows. Even hypothetically if you were a super racist in the 90's, Apu was always an extreme version of a character, I doubt anyone was out there going, "Man they put a damn indian in my family sitcom".
@@JamesDeal1982 There are white supremacists out there, just as there black, jewish, arab supremacists. like you say not many but they are there. all i'm saying is that authoritarians always seem to have the same solutions to problems. the "far left" and the "far right", although those terms arent very good, always seem to have the same ideas. David Duke for example said he hoped Hilary Clinton would beat Donald Trump in the election.
In the classic Simpson's video game "Hit and Run", Apu was the only non family member to be a playable character and he had his own massive level. It really shows the love and respect the creators had for him in the Simpsonsverse.
God I loved that game. It was so fun
My dad slapped me one time when I was playing that game cos i was driving like a lunatic! 😂👍
Don't tell anyone you have that game the feds will come to your house and confiscate it
Recently watched online Playthrough of this game I was surprised how crazy and strange it was
And was still a voice of reason. Like when you ride with him in one of Lisa's missions, he can't offer a real answer so suggests Professor Frink. Who's able to explain every question except "Why I ever moved to this Jerk Water-berg."
No matter what skin colour you have, you shouldn't be limited in doing voices (if you performing respectfully). Especially if you are an actor and you spot-on nail it... You rock it, Hank! 🙂👍🏻
The last bit. Overcorrection. That’s going to stay with me.

As a Sikh-Canadian, I have no idea how "Apu" is offensive. If anything, I'm offended that others are offended. Cancelling Apu is offensive.
Just because a "white guy" did his voice, doesn't make Apu any more or less funny. Dude was on-mark!
Imagine asking an Indian person: "We'd like to hire you to do stereotypes of your native accent, culture and mannerisms... Yes, we don't care you speak fluently."

I only watched up to season 10, but Apu had the best speach on tolerance in the episode where Lisa goes vegetarian. I really didnt expect such a real, deep moment like that from a cartoon comedy.
This segment gave me an entirely new respect for Akash Singh. A substantial amount of insight into his character and personality.

Yeah Apu is one of Homer's closest friends, he's in his bowling team, was in the B-Sharps with him, the Simpson's fight to keep him in the country when there's legislation that threatens him, he's a franchise owner of a big store, gets married to a beautiful woman, has kids, struggles with being a parent, is a real key part of the show, not just a stereotype punchline

Unlike most "diverse" shows in American media today, Apu was an actually well written character with depth that wasn't added to the show for the sake of diversity.

I worked in a pizza place that shared a plaza with a 7-11. It was owned by an older Indian couple. Some of the nicest people I've known. To me, Apu was just a relatable character. I still maintain that the most offended people are often the most sheltered and the most secluded from the diversity that they demand.

I am Indian from the West Indies and this guy (Akash) is absolutely right with everything he said, especially with Apu!

I mean some South Asians probably were outraged. The problem is the media picks and chooses who they get to speak for
that word "community" is the problem. The Black 'community', the LGBTQ 'community', the South Asian 'community', etc.
WHAT F****N' COMMUNITY??!! There's just individuals. Some can handle jokes, some can't. Some don't mind voice actors voicing ethnicities other than their own. Some do. Welcome to tolerance.
As a wealthy caucasian dude myself i really feel that. It's tough. But I will prevail.
I couldnt agree more with this guest.
I grew up watching The Simpsons and I never found the character of Apuu or any character offensive. Its a cartoon show, of course we are gonna have over the top stereotypical portrayal of a group of individuals.
Its meant to be comedy, we have to stop cancelling people because some people are upset. This is not the way to move forward.
I agree with him except for at the end when he says "it sucks that a white guy does Apu's voice"
SCHOOL! The answer is I don't go! Why go? I am famous. I am famous. I have more fans than fingers multiplied with toes multiplied with teeth multiplied with ears. I am famous. I am famous. SCHOOL? No, thanks. CZcams FAME? Yes. Good day, dear mike
If whites were always aggrieved and looking for offense, 95% of the characters on that show could be considered offensive stereotypes. They could be but they aren't.
So Very True. If Ya Don't like it - Don't watch it. Also, if You Don't Like it - Don't watch it so You can have something to be upset about. I'd Rather be happy & watch what MAKES me happy. I Don't want to spend My life LOOKING for & FINDING things just to be upset about. That's insane!!
CnN amd MSNBC and 270 "doctors" and the "speaker of the house" will have something sifferent to say about that though, becuase crushing citizens under the weight of power is somehow more important. I think really we should cancel 90% percent of all white people in the USA especially every single household who even once was recorded by Alexa for using the N-word at home like Chris Rock said they did.
That was so well said
Hank Azaria in the Birdcage as Hagedor Spartacus was his best work.
Canceling and removing Apu was one of the worst things to happen in human history. He was an iconic character
i would say there are many more atrocious things to have happened in human history lmao. but still a disappointment.
I thought his marriage in the show made him way less funny.
I didn't even realize Apu was removed. That is a real shame. I liked that guy.
Was nothing wrong with Apu to begin with. Smh
Human history? Lmao nice joke, holocaust, black plague, spanish flu and you think removing apu is the one of the worst things in human history LMAO
Been saying that for the longest. Apu is one of the most positive characters on the Simpsons. And I believe that he has been treated better than most characters on the show as far as storylines. The Ep where he takes Homer to India is still one of the best shows in the entire run.
Is that a rock band pfp? Right on lol
Him getting his citizenship is fantastic too, and in general they don't write any brown character on the show sterotypically

Always love seeing Akash go in 😤❤️
This guy is so proud of his parents they should be proud of him.
Apu if I recall correctly actually looked down on Homer and others in the series. He'd scold Homer for stealing and being a bum in the store. He's actually very well portrayed as a guy with values
Pretty much what he said
While I agree with your comment, I don't think Abu looked down on Homer, he treated him as a friend for the most part
That's why they got rid of him, values are unacceptable.
There you go, now you understand why they got rid of him.
His take on Apu is spot on. He's a dude that wants to make it, and doesn't care about the odds that face him. A real American. 💯
Reminds me of everyone trying to come into this country as an immigrant from all over.
I would agree with the last part that apu should be voiced by someone who's the same race
The “system” is in lockstep on creating social and cultural turmoil and collapse. They are erasing core American & human values before our eyes. When your govt & corporate entities are in collusion with the same agenda, things like telling you genders don’t exist, and attempting to bring back division, race issues and increased criminal activity in major blue cities… Then something is very wrong.. Thankfully, most ppl have woken up to our current climate
To be honest Apu is an accurate character. So glad Matt Groening created this near perfect character for your amusement. I love Americans especially the white Americans.
They talk about stereotypes, but homer is a drunken slob,most adult cartoon characters are stereotypes really.
Great discussion.

As a Mexican myself, I always cracked up and LOVED the Mexican bumblebee character on The Simpsons. Never found it offensive at all.
Woke turns everything to shit. Yeah, it was just funny. No offensive at all.
@@danortiz It really does turn everything to shit. It's like a form of cultural Marxism that breads extreme conformity and cultural stagnation.
I think they got that from an actual dude from a Telemundo show a long time ago. Like the 80s..
@@scratchpenny no. It's not. We are proud of our ancestry and culture. Who cares if it is weird. We don't. Woke people tried to cancel speedy and slowpoke Rodriguez, we didn't let them.
Well duh! Of course you wouldn't find him offensive cause Bumblebee Man isn't a stereotype of Mexicans. He's a parody of a specific Mexican fictional character. That's different from the Apu character.
Around 5 years ago, I took my first trip to India as part of a university-led cultural exchange. I made friends with several of my Indian peers whilst there and revisited the country several times. Of the friends that I made there, they would themselves do impressions of Apu and laugh about it. My Indian friend would repeat "Thank you, come again!" and then everyone would burst out laughing. Safe to say that they all found it absolutely hilarious. Being from the north, they told me that this was how southern Indians sounded when they talked and hence they used their impressions of Apu as a way to make fun of other Indians for the way that they spoke. My point is that Indians themselves do not take offense to such things and that in my experience, they are not the type of people who ever would.
Also, Apu was always a very dignified character and definitely the embodiment of the American dream. I do believe this was deliberate on the part of the writers, as you can tell from certain episodes - perhaps most notably the one where Apu has to apply for citizenship and he delivers an emotional monologue to Homer. His character will forever be loved the world over.
Of course they don’t take offense to it, only white liberals do. They’re always the ones canceling “offensive” characters, mascots, etc. They get offended on behalf of other people.
Bro it's just white people and mixed rich liberal indians get offended by this shit lol
Yep. Guess what? We do accents too. I'm Indian and let me tell you, no one of the young generation talks like that. But I had school teachers and parents of friends who talked like that. And it is endearing.
As for the whole "stereotypes are offensive", Indian people have an inferiority complex when it comes to skin colour, but they also mock westerners for some of the etiquette and culture. And it is not malicious.
I'm tired of this "lets assume the worst of everyone and never given anyone the benefit of the doubt ever."
Grown ass adults gotta do better.
What great comment!
@@Chaelsonen No no, read again. My Indian friend would say that, in India. Honestly dude, you've really not read what I wrote properly at all.
The sitcom that Hank Azaria is in that Joe might be thinking of is "Mad About You". Azaria played the recurring guest role of the dog walker i think.
Listening to this comic speak, I'm struck by how rare it is to hear reasonable people nowadays.
the fact is majority are reasonable, but the vocal minority controls the eco system
You hear reasonable people all the time. Usually they're saying stuff like "ooo yeah they'll kill you if you go there or defend that." He's being reasonable and principled, which is a nice change.
It's often that these unreasonable are loudest or label others, who may be trying to communicate in good faith, damning things to take them out of the conversation early, in my experience. I like to think of myself as a reasonable person but I admit I lack the spine to speak up a lot of the time. I am always worried about the fallout and losing what little I have.
@@venjek1990 Spot on! You don't hear those micro-minority (the cancel culture) sitting at the table next to you, or for that matter across from you, at a restaurant. Most people would look at them and tell them to shutup if not outright throw a drink in their face. You only see/hear them on twatter (look at a heat map of those users in the USA ...not surprising) when they're anonymous except for their closed circle of group-think friends.
It means that you listen to insane people. There are reasonable people all around you.
As an Indian born in NZ, Akaash's reclaiming of the Indian identity & being so comfortable with himself (Victor mindest vs victim) is refreshing for us. The dotbusters were actually a racist anti Indian group but aren't discussed, priorities
The fact that he didn’t anglicize his name and is in an arranged marriage makes me respect him so so much more. Indians have needed a loud and proud Indian for a while. Akash is my guy. Love how he takes pride in his culture.

Well, he is an immigrant. He does not have a lineage from those who has been brutalized in the US.
Hank Azarias best performance was as Agador Spartacus in The Birdcage.
Love that point of view and I totally agree
As an India-dwelling Indian, I can GUARANTEE that everyone I know around me who watched Simpsons loved Appu. That Hari Kondabolu guy was just a nobody hack that needed to ride the coattails of a popular character to kickstart his then failing comedy career.
We’ll he got the whole 15 minutes of fame he wanted nothing more after that .
@Shae the funny who’re he didnt say that at all.
@Shae the funny who’re yea so do you Shae talk for all of us?. Apu had a heavy Indian accent, which was to be expected from an Indian who recently migrated to the US. That was Apu's story. Many of my friends who migrated from India have the heavy accent. As an Indian this is not offensive. This is the truth. Stop fishing us for racial issues. Our problems are with the Colonial British powers. That is our story of racism.
Edit: our
@Shae the funny who’re I don't know how you have come to the conclusion that it is exaggerated. Apu's accent is vaguely similar to the Indian accent. Moreover the character was introduced in the 90s where a lot of Indians did not have westernised pronounciation of words so Apu would have been a likely represention of what Indians sounded like at that time. I don't know how black face has anything to do with Apu. Black face is a clearly racial act meant to demean African Americans. Black face and its history in minstrel shows is what makes it racist. Apu and the Indian accent do not have any such background. Comparing a succesful Indian character with an exaggerated Indian accent to a dark symbol of racism doesn't do justice to black face and its history. I repeat again calling us snake charmers and street shitters is the racist thing. The accent isn't racist. I would compare the stereotype to a drink Scotsman or an exaggerated English upper class man more than black face. I hope this clears the difference.
@Shae the funny who’re just wow
"We want all races to be represented in media."
"Cancel Apu!"
And uncle Ben!
proper representation would be to have him voiced by someone Indian.
@@navjeetsingh66 if you never knew would it matter
@@navjeetsingh66 That would still be incredible racist hahah
You are saying only a White human being can voice a white character black brown and so on?
Dont you see how racist that is?
And thats coming from a German
@@monkeyddizze Making a movie with Hitler in it, and since you're German, we think you'd be perfect to play him.
That was sarcasm to play on the racial typecasting incase anyone didn't pickup on it.
My favorite Hank Azaria role is in The Birdcage as Agador Spartacus. His accent was so close to Apu that my mind switches them. Apu in a purple thong cleaning the pool while singing Lady Marmalade.
When it comes to voice acting it doesn’t matter what color the actor’s skin is as long as they do a good job voicing the character.
AKAASH ON JRE!!! love seeing this man’s come up. Stand up dude happy to see him grow
I'm from Italy, and the mob problem is diffused and rooted deeply in our society, but Fat Tony has always managed to make me laugh.

@@suzygirl1843 you'd prefer them to be purple or what?
@@suzygirl1843 what problem does that solve?
@@suzygirl1843 I think originally it was, so People would notice it more while zapping through the Programs on TV, so it doens't really have anything to do with race
@@suzygirl1843 Are you assuming that caucasians are paper white?
I have a couple of things to point out:
1) most italians are not caucasian, we are latin and mediterranean complexion so most of us falls in "olive skin" pigmentation
2) even with this specification yellow is still the most accurate color for the depiction of "white" skin.
take for example the ed sheeran video you have on your channel. that is not white, or pink, if you saturate the image you will se that even is it's unsaturated his base pigment is still yellow.
@@nomad3976 You're making things up. Italians are definitely caucasians wtf. Italics' closest related group are the Celtics. Mediterranean complexion doesn't refer to olive skin color, but bigger eyes, generally darker hair complexion, thicker facial and body hair, higher cheekbones etc... I've seen some of the palest guys ever here in Italy. It's true that some people may have olive skin (myself included) probably due to Berber/Greek/Lebanese ancestry, but that's some just individuals. And btw, both my (biological) brothers are blonde, but they present a mediterranean complexion. Why are you so obsessed with skin color?
Kaboom!! That commentary was spot on.
uh, this changed my presperctive
We stand with you Joe. The thought police won’t win.

@@michaeltrevino201 Congratulations, this is the dumbest comment I’ve read in a long fucking time.
Rogan was helping out Ek who asked him to help deflect some of the perceived heat. If only we'd all re-learn the best response to all that shit: ignore them. I think the only ones still talking about it is his fans. I'm bummed he apologized, but, we can't unring the bell. I bet the offer from Rumble scared more than a few of his attackers. lol
@@ThrasherGnar well…I will say that Joe leans left and is more on the compassionate, agreeable side in terms of personality. So he tends to feel bad a lot easier than at least I originally thought. He apologizes because when you are attacked so publicly as he is, the response is normally to apologize. He definitely didn’t do anything wrong here but he is on the liberal side of things in the traditional sense, but not with the woke, no. Still it was a really poor move to help them as he did by apologizing.
Apu was many people's favourite character and the coolest guy on Simpsons. Everybody look forward to seeing him in an episode!
As an Indian I thank you for appreciating the character. Always a pleasure when we Indians (even if it's a cartoon character) can entertain westerners. We look up to you. Thanks.
@@s.chaubey8098 all the Indian people I have met were really nice, and your food is the best.
@@s.chaubey8098 The character was spot on, growing up most of the corner shops which are the equivalent of his little supermarket were run by Indians. And the way his character was portrayed as hardworking and polite was accurate as hell. Go in another shop in the uk and the person behind the counter barely makes eye contact and the most you hear them say is something along the lines of cash or card or do you want a clubcard lol. Whereas those little corner shops which are mostly gone now you got to know the person that worked there, they knew what your usually after and super helpful. At no point watching the simpsons did it appear they were being racist.
@Amber Fleet agreed
I like this guy, his crowd work is on point.
Joes face everytime Jamie talks is hilarious
I think The Simpsons handled the whole “Apu thing” really badly. As a “white dude”, I completely agree with Akaash. Apu was actually one of the richest characters who developed and gave a different perspective and it’s a shame the (somewhat justified) criticism was so narrow only looking at the “glass half empty”. For example, it was Apu that introduced Lisa to vegetarianism and the different views of Hindu culture. So now we don’t have that anymore, because his accent is “offensive” (and there are tons of bad accents on the Simpsons!)
Yes, his character was a lazy stereotype in the early days in particular, but ALL the characters in The Simpsons are stereotypes - it’s kinda the whole thing about the show. It’s a parody of America at large.
Just like almost everything in life there is a relevant Simpsons reference for this. Remember when Marge went on an anti cartoon violence crusade which ended up with the “Itchy and Scratchy Show” getting literally canceled. The lesson from that episode was “one person can make a difference, but they probably shouldn’t”.
Cartoons aren’t meant to be taken seriously anyway. We watch them because it’s an escape from the real world. Also love King of the Hill and the stereotypes. 😆
apu started out horribly stereotypical.
first couple years apu deserved to be banished.
ppl mighta been having problems moving past that.
but then yes, he grew pretty well.
Stopped reading after "somewhat justified" lol - it wasn't justified at all
You're talking about character development and complicated stuff like that. Have you seen the way the left make movies? They know nothing of that shit. They suck, their movies suck, their books suck and most of all, their opinions and feelings suck.
@@BirrDetonator1989 you sound like you need a hug.

beautiful analysis
reasonable argument. The "over correction" is an insightful observation, perhaps an alternative option could have been done rather than getting rid of only Indian character
Apu is missed. One of the best characters on the show. Akash put it perfectly, I never thought of Apu in a negative light. Hank Azaria is one talented actor/voice actor
I'm mostly sad that I had to scroll this far down to see hanks name. It's not apu its hank azaria, and he has had way too much hatred pushed towards him, one of the best voice actors we have had in over 2 decades

Late to the Party but What a Brilliant Take on Apu! As a brown person myself, I was always on the fence when it came to Apu and did feel kinda misrepresented but this really changes perspective!! Damn it Akaash!!! 😂
My favorite line from Apu is when Ned says the line "you only live once" around him and he responds "Hey! Speak for yourself!"

@@anniew4105 LOL true
In Asian countries, parents stay with their kids,for all the life.The children grow up and later takes care of the parents.
Time to stop treating their kids like shit then, respect is earned, pushing out an infant or jizzing in a woman does not make someone a hero, I disowned my "family", my aunt stole from me, my old man repeatedly attacked me, my "mother" refused to feed me from the time I was an infant until I was 10, in stead using my empty plate as an ash tray as a way to insult me, which I didnt even understand at the time. If people hate the ones who (are supposed to) raise them, there is probably a good reason, Ive seen worse.
Yeah respect for elders is a thing of the past. Not saying that all parents deserve respect from their kids, but I’d rather not have to see old guys doing the dougie or lip syncing the newest pop song on TikTok to show the young kids how “down with them” they are.
Never thought I'd say this, but so thankful for the existence of this podcast. I don't know how I'd keep my sanity if people like Joe got completely silenced by the angry left mob. What crazy times we live in. Keep up the good work my man!
It's small group of angry left. It's getting a ton of coverage because a ton of groups don't like the influence the show has. (that is why it gets the media attention......that and each skewed media has issues with stuff that has been said on the show) Fox gets just as annoyed with JRE as CNN does. Cancel culture is both sides too. The entire political view of the US would be hilarious if it weren't actually happening. I have a sister who wants to get everything for free and I have another sister that would blow Trump and her husband would give her pointers.
Humanity (Edit: US humanity......I have no rite to speak on other countries, I have never experienced them) has become a cesspool of extremes. (this is a blatant generalization)
Edit again: It always bugs me that most people seem to think youtube comments are understood to be US-centric.
