Arj Barker was performing in Adelaide, Australia - and I got to talking to him outside after the gig for a while, before him and his PA alerted me that they walking back to their hotel.. I declined and drove them to their accommodation - and I can confirm that Arj is exceptionally funny, witty and charming even off stage.. He's a terrifically sweet gentleman.
What the fuck does he mean by pretty much every gym around the world has balloons attatched to em...? I've never seen that before in my life. What kinda fuckin gym does he go to?
Arj is more a comedian that relies upon material then crowd interaction. Some one like Jimmy Carr loves talking to hecklers, it all depens on the type of comedian.
Jimmy Carr literally ASKS people to heckle during his show as part of his bit. I find it kinda lame and not really a "heckle", but it is funny most of the time. It just doesn't belong in "Comedians vs Hecklers" type of videos I watch.
Yeah I'm Australian and I can say he his very popular here.. He was on our TV quite a bit a few years back. His comedy seems to appeal to Aussies the most I guess.
butterflycaught900 No he didn't. He said she kept interrupting, she said things like "don't hold your breath" snarky shit. He wasn't even mean with the gym comment, and that segment lasted like 10 seconds....
first off, ill start by saying that I respect your respect for Jimmy Carr. Jimmy is excellent at his craft. I agree with that. Second of all. Dude, not everyone has the same taste. Some people may really like this guy and thats cool. There is nothing that makes you look cool for interrupting and harassing a comedian who is trying to entertain you. If you don't like him, don't show up. Thats all you have to do, dude. Have a good one. =)
Just tell you now everyone, he is awesome bloke behind scene. Was doing security at the forum and he chilled out back with us guys after. Great comedian!
Arj Barker sucks? Are you fucking insane? He has a HUGE fan base and not to mention that he has a WHOLE continent behind his back(Aussies where you at?)
I just saw him this past weekend at one of the best and smallest venues in the bay area! Rooster T Feathers in Sunnyvale, Ca... He was balls against the wall friggen hysterical! He had my laughing to hard I was crying! Always a great time when this happens!
Man, that discover channel bit was quality.
Arj is awesome, I went to watch him in Melbourne, Australia
highihigh I have not seen him live ever...but I have do have a cat named Moses and probably smoke too much.
Stuart King Hahaha Classic!!!
"finish that joke bro" ANY comedian should be proud of a moment like that lol

I always loved this guy growing up :)
Arj is always so smoooooooooooooooooooth. Amazing composure and confidence.
"Finish the joke, Arj!" gotta love that guy.
i love how he answered her immediately like they were talking
This is the best response and a very honest one at it... Thank you for taking the time to tell it how it is...
"finish your joke arj!" omg that was the cutest thing ever
Finish that joke bro
If I didn't have the moral support of that guy.

He is a huge success in Australia. He lives there now.
damn this guy is a good comedian. I watched like 10 random clips on youtube and he's the best yet.
this is part of being a comedian, you've got to be confident.

PS: Yes, I am replying to your 9 -year old post. I am still watching Arj Barker videos...and still having a blast.
Best handling of a heckler I've seen. It's funnier than most other comedian's A material.
he is the chillest person i've ever seen
Yeah I'm Australian and I can say he his very popular here.. He was on our TV quite a bit a few years back. His comedy seems to appeal to Aussies the most I guess.

Wait... Isn't this guy on the Flight of the Concords.
"at first I was the only one that hated you" HA, best line ever

Damn l think he made the icecream joke in his latest show....2016.
This is the best 'heckler" vid i've seen so far.. "finish your joke arj" lol
he's really funny in Flight of the Conchords
He reminds me of Andy Samberg.
no no no uv got it mixed up. Andy Samburg reminds u of Arj Barker
He reminds me of a funny Dane Cook. Good to know it's not just being funny looking that makes people funny.
dude this guy is amazing on anyshow
lmao that was real comedy right there... on the spot and hilariously spontaneous
butterflycaught900 No he didn't. He said she kept interrupting, she said things like "don't hold your breath" snarky shit. He wasn't even mean with the gym comment, and that segment lasted like 10 seconds....

Love Arj on Flight of the Conchord's
"Dave's double down deal" was brilliant
Never seen him on stage, and thought this bit was tremendously hilarious
Just tell you now everyone, he is awesome bloke behind scene. Was doing security at the forum and he chilled out back with us guys after. Great comedian!

He was in FOTC, yes. Can't remember if his character was named Dave, though.

hecklers are brilliant lol, they make the show funnier !!!!
he is soo so so quick :)
the date this as uploaded was before the day the description says
He has such a soft spoken voice, I can't imagine him angry.
Yes the quiet calls the hecklers out. Excellent.
Hahahaha! Man, a comedian who is able to think on their feet and still be funny is a good comedian :D
arj is awesome he gave me his autograph after the conchords concert i went to that he opened for it was awesome
'Finish your joke Arj!'. WHAT A LEGEND.
Wow that must be so annoying. He handles it really well, he can think really quickly on his feet. Kudos.
You handled that admirably well Arj!
Shred away my man....love hecklers...its always nice to have a sitting blinking target....
this guy's subtlety is awesome lmao!
i love when they handle hecklers
that was the best bit
Indeed he is. He also sometimes headlines the live performances of FOTC.
the outro music is the same music used in South Park Tween Wave episode.. XD
Lol, same here man. Probably the funniest comedian I've seen
The icecream headache joke was the funniest :P
I love the line about moral support from 'that guy', so quick.
This comedian did pretty well in countering the heckles
High Treason Week on the Discovery Channel! LMAO!! So true!!
That just made my life worth living! lol
the "at first i was the only one that hated you" bit was great. well handled.
It was a five minute cartoon we used to have on foxtel between shows
Hecklers make the show, I mean its soo cool to see how the comedian will deal with em.
he totally kept his cool.. I guess that's why he owned the hecklers. and he did it in such an elegant way too. Very Impressive!
he's so blazed
he is so quick
Thanks.
brilliant
That shit about the Discovery channel was fuckin' funny man.
hahaha YES!! The Barnacle!! nice one, hombre.
Man that first joke had me rolling.
Padrebill you're freakin awesome :D

"First I was the only one that hated you. Now... everyone hates you. But I still hate you the most."
Brillant.
Well that escalated quickly.
Lol, I love Arj Barker. He kicks ass.

i love the gibbon bit he does, where the gibbon is watching his home be destroyed...so funny!
the moral support comment was perfect! haha...
just imagine if all of the hecklers got together in one room. how tough would that be for a comedian.
He'll be one of the guest stars in the upcoming Flight of the Conchords concert in Utah.
I think its funny that this video was uploaded on 7/26/07 yet in the description it says it took place on 8/27/07
I love how he whispers "... everyone hates you..." XD
