I used to like Mitch Hedberg. I still do, but I used to too.
saw somethin like this the other day lol
👏🏼
Get some new material.
Literally every mitch hedberg video has this comment
@@alanincentraljersey its a Hedberg joke. Its not possible to get new material.
Mitch was an absolute genius at one liners. Most comedians work through telling stories or building off topics. This dude just straight up told JOKES.
He was like the opposite of Norm McDonald who would stretch out a joke forever. Both super funny guys though.
He had all the skills any comic needs; timing, identity, strong sets. What sets him apart is how he links the set up and punch line in the jokes. There’s no word play; it’s all semantic links built on objects or processes. The map joke at 00:30 is a good example; he’s judged how well the audience can differentiate between pins that record journeys and the ones that hold up the map. The audience probably needs a split second to process it but when they make the connection, they payoff is worth it. It’s much harder to write image-based one-liners than word play one liners.
@@alukuhito They both have voices that make me smile in anticipation of the punch line
@@billmcginley Yes!
@@alukuhito Norm would tell bad jokes on purpose or just make people think he was stupid while he was sitting there enjoying the fact he was making everyone uncomfortable - total genius
"You can't please all the people all the time, and last night all those people were at my show." ~ Mitch
My favorite Mitch one liner: "A severed foot is the ultimate stocking stuffer"
Isn’t that Norm’s joke?
@@trevorjogrady nope. Definitely Mitch.
Lmao!
that's the one! that one destroyed me.
"I haven't slept for 10 days . . . because that would be way too long."
"I hate arrows man, don't you?" I love the one guy clapping very loudly at the setup, presumably having finally found validation for his lifelong hatred of all things pointy and directional.
probably that guy from Skyrim
I assumed Mitch was going to follow that one up with "always telling you where to go, what if you didnt wanna go that way?"
@@charlesnelthorpe9252 Poor dude used to be an adventurer like the rest of us...but then...
Likely a physicist tormented by vectors.
“I haven’t slept for 10 days, because that would be too long.”
Rest of the golf joke:
"I hit a guy once. I didn't yell, 'fore', cuz I was too busy mumbling, 'there ain't no way it's gonna hit him'".
Pure. Gold! Thanks for sharing that. Mitch was one of the greatest.
Maybe they'll bring him back
@@joshwright86 lmao. Maybe
That is my favorite next to the escalator one!
@@joshwright86 nah dude it's impossible to bring Mitch back...
Because Conan isn't on the air anymore.
“Wearing a turtleneck is like being strangled by a really weak guy... all day. “ - Thank you Mitch for all the laughs!!! 💛🙏🏼💛 For ever a legend!!
This one always makes me laugh. :D
“Dogs are forever in the push-up position”
@@RFXLR I had forgotten about this one! It made me laugh.😆🙏🏼
Wearing a turtleneck and a backpack right?
“I love animal crackers, but have just one question?? Are they made from real animals?” Hedberg was the best one liner comedian. If my version differed from the original, many apologies. A recovered Heroin addict that almost got grounded in his own fashion, meaning I was on the way to a rehab and my ID was missing numbers from all the “smashing” that takes place in an addictive lifestyle. Then searching me, smelled an embarrassing odor..... that was Necrosis from an IV site that I guess I negated for a month or three. Long, short. I almost lost my leg, let alone the finite opportunity to save my life. Decades in Hell. 7 months out. It’s very sad to see that talented people have to die for a schmuck to get a chance.
"I give you the money, you give me the doughnut. We don't have to bring paper and ink into this."
one of my favorite of his.
I read about a guy who worked at a Winchells. He printed that joke on the receipts, and got in trouble.
I will file this receipt under D for donut.
Don’t even think I didn’t buy that donut. I have the documentation right here.
One of my favorite jokes he did was in That 70’s show when he says to Kelso
“I did not lose my leg in Vietnam to serve kids French fries”
Kelso “ But you have both legs?”
Mitch “Like I said I did not lose my leg in Vietnam!”
They used a similar one with Leo.
Leo: You're like the son I never had.
Hyde: But you have kids.
Leo: That's why you're like the son I _never_ had!
@@wvu05 ya. But Mitch made it his own joke. Leo’s the man because he’s Tommy Chong. You know why Leo left the show suddenly?
@@minenotyours212 I honestly don't. I have to admit that I lost track of the show around the fourth or fifth season.
@@wvu05 Tommy was busted by the Feds for selling drug paraphernalia over state boarders when he was selling Chong Bongs. Wish I had one
@@minenotyours212 It's probably a real collector's item these days!
Mitch's humor is very similar to Steven Wright's, but the delivery is what sets him apart. Wright is like listening to a crazy guy in an asylum who's had all day every day to just think about stuff, while Mitch is like an innocent little kid with ADD just delivering observations as fast as he makes them.
Hahah, great comparison!
That’s an accurate breakdown.
He's actually a balanced value like many of us use to be try to still be...but Webster ruined it
@@Dian-kb2hg Don't blame the dictionary. What did it ever do to you?
Oh, it insulted you? Damn you, Webster. Idiot does not have anyone's picture under it.
@@fartkerson guess your point is made...thank you for the input on it.... 🕸️ Ster....by picture goes like this 🌪️🤯💩🪠 especially when books literature 🎶 cartoons are all contributed to it...and somehow someone is always being a salesman to it's LITITURE...using this dictionary so luck you you allegedly weren't thrown into it's "box" for someone's new money making CAREERS
The soup of the day joke is so abrupt that people aren't ready for it. Too good.
Seriously. Soup should be reliable.
Rice is great for when you're hungry and you want two thousand of something.
Hi Nomi
I had a crippling addiction to opiates and benzos for about 15 years of my life. I lived in deep regret for about the first 4 years of my recovery, but I’ve turned my regret into empathy for those who are suffering and those who paid the ultimate price as the result of addiction. Mitch Hedburg, Layne Staley, Kurt Cobain, Chris Farley, and many other endlessly talented people brought us immeasurable joy through one of the hardest tribulations a person can endure, and I’ll always remember them for it.
Jesus fuck. I am a recovering addict, been clean since 5th February 2016. What astounded me was all the names you mentioned - every one of them I have watched/listened to in the last couple of days.
You named some of my very favorite people. In addition to those you mentioned, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix and Billie Holliday come to mind as artists I love who overdosed on heroin. I’ve never tried heroin, or any opiates actually, but have always had a gut feeling I would be addicted if I did bc so many artists I admire were heroin addicts and maybe we have that in common. Weird theory maybe, I dunno.
Never went through anything like that but always thought if there is hard in life, addiction is it. Glad you made it. God bless.
Thank you for this very since your post. I wish you the best.
Have a ice cold Gatorade and enjoy yourself
Mitch lives on through his art. His comedy is some of the most repeated stuff on the internet. Gone but not forgotten
I miss ALL of us like him.
"I wanna hang a map of the world in my house, and then im gonna put pins in all the places i have traveled to. but first ima have to travel to the top two corners of the map...so it wont fall down." Shit like this is fucking genius. RIP Mitch!
I love how innocent and happy he looks, just reeling off the jokes so easily.
I think that, along with the funny, were his most endearing qualities. I always enjoyed his chuckling along with the audience. Very little ego there. Truly a like-able entertainer.
@yourfeelings648 it’s so obvious too haha
I was lucky enough to see him live. I couldn't breathe he was so funny. It was fall/early winter 2003 so right around this time. He opened for Dave Atell and Lewis Black.
He's the only comic I made sure to see live, it was about the same time. I was so in awe of him I don't remember much of the night but he was hilarious.
Was this in Santa Barbara? I was at that tour
You’re all so lucky. I found out on April fools day 2005 that he passed. Just days before I was supposed to see him live. I thought it was a joke.
I saw him solo at the Punchline in S.F. and had the same reaction - couldn’t breathe, crying from laughing. What was cool is that Janeane Garofalo and Zach Galifianakis were there watching. They didn’t have a set, they just came to see him. I saw him once more at a bigger venue in San Jose, the audience ate it up.
That’s quite a lineup
No matter how great you are at tennis, you'd never beat a wall.
Get it right if you're going to quote him. "The depressing thing about tennis is that no matter how good I get, I'll never be as good as a wall."
@@strats991 tool.
@@strats991 Notice how he didn't use quotation marks? He was paraphrasing the joke. Get it right before you try and smack him with your keyboard strokes
@@curthenley455 I didn't like the condescending tone, but appreciated the thoroughness
I think Mitch was the last of the *truly original* stand-up comics. His nervous appearance, observational style and halting delivery are a perfect match and that makes his material all the more hilarious.
Comedy clubs across America are full of original stand up comedians. Social media gatekeepers are hiding the next generation because their jokes are "problematic".
Norm Macdonald as well. R.I.P.
Emo Philips is still going strong!
Gone too soon. He would have killed it on Twitter.
I must have been under a rock all these years, because I just discovered this guy by listening to the Sirius XM comedy stations. I started doing a deep dive into his work and he's fantastic. I was shocked to find out he passed away years ago. He has great delivery and well thought out takes on ordinary things.His one-liners make me think and laugh. I'm sorry we lost this talent too soon.
Mitch was one of the first comedians that made me love stand-up comedy. Besides true crime, I usually listen to stand-ups or a podcast daily. Which is why I'm a #Murderino. Two of my favorite things combined make me less depressed than usual. In case you're a curious cat like me, you should listen to #MyFavoriteMurder #ThatsMessedUpAnSVUPodcast #LastPodcastOnTheLeft
The joke about just simply being thirsty to enjoy drinking Gatorade is so enjoyable.
A-GREED!!! The relatableness of just needing some extra electrolytes before work or after a night of drinking (& sometimes both) is so good to my soul. xD
& the lightning bolt! Haha!
I heard he had terrible stage fright, that's why the dark glasses. I just now noticed how nervous he was. Still, hilarious as always! Rip.
If Mitch was born in 2000s, he would probably be a streamer because he wouldnt need to see people’s faces
Also realizes millions are watching on TV
@@bigsquez That's a good point! I think his act would translate really well to a streaming format.
His anxiety is part of his charm
@Alexis Sweet the glasses were so he could close his eyes to the crowd
His punchlines are so subtle but land so hard! He was genius RIP
I feel like in every one of Mitch's performances, there's a point where the last few members of the audience finally catch on. He always asked you to think from a different angle, rapid-fire, and that takes a minute for a lot of folks. Always worth it.
“I’m sick of soup of the day man, it’s time we make a decision.”
One of a kind Mitch was. One of the most brilliant smartest comedians ever. RIP
I love how happy he looks when the audience gets it.
I bet he's got some great jokes you won't get till tomorrow, he bomb that night but they'd invite him back.
Always here for a Mitch Hedberg upload!
Know what I'm talking about? -Mitch
Yeaaah - audience
I don't - Mitch
Cracking up
So classic. RIP Mitch Hedberg. He'll always be one of my favorite comedians. 🙌🏼
Love how all his jokes are clean but incredibly hilarious! I miss Mitch so much!
How much?
@@onlinebills9169so much.
"Once I went to the store to buy a candle holder but they were out, So I Bought A Cake"...
You are missed Mitch..
I can understand why this isn't everyone's type of humor, but I swear I laugh at almost literally everything he says. Such a brilliant mind.
Honestly I think it's more his delivery that does it, anyone else and it wouldn't be as funny.
'almost literally everything'?, I don't think literally belongs in that sentence.
@@DoubleMonoLR That's why I said "almost." I used it intentionally. In the context of his jokes, yes, literally almost every joke he tells I laugh.
@@Tigerbrown44 Except that I LITERALLY meant "almost literally." How is that hard to understand?
@@Tigerbrown44 Then go use it where it's actually relevant instead of criticizing or making fun of me for something I didn't do.
Mitch Hedburg is my favourite comedian by far. No one seems to look at the world like he does. If there was comic that I would call an artist, it'd be Mitch.
I love how humble and down to earth he was on stage. You really found yourself rooting for him. Loved his mobile home repo man joke- one of my very favorites of his. Thanks for the laughs, Mitch.
Mitch is one of the All time stand up greats--even more so because you know that he would do the same stuff at a party and you would be on the floor holding your stomach. He didn't need to "be on" to be funny. He was funny.
There are many things I like about Mitch, but perhaps what I like most is how he always seemed pleasantly surprised by laughter. (e.g.: 0:32)
He banged out some of the most original, relatable, and simplest jokes ever written, and yet he washes over with humble joy when anyone digs his jokes. We realllllllllllly got robbed by his death...as did he.
R.I.P. Legend!!! He was and will always be one of the most underrated comedians of all time!!
Oh my God, I can't believe I've never heard of him.... I feel ashamed, that map joke was GOD TIER
while you are at it, check out steven wright as well if you don't know. When i first found out about these a couple years ago, i was watchin em and rewatchin em for weeks.!
Would probably like Demetri Martin, as well
Mitch was in a class all of his own. Check out his first 2 albums. Historic.
@@srikaneator Steven Wright can't hold a candle to Hedberg. he's trash.
@@pdkeast I can see why u would call him inferior but... he's trash.? really wtf
Mitch was the best. As a kid I loved his comedy. Just him, a mic, his sunglasses an his halirious observations.
his demons took him away from us, but thankfully he came along at a time when his works could be saved for generations of comics to learn from and the rest of us to turn to when we need to smile.
thank you Mitch. Rest in peace my brother l
I love the rapid fire delivery. This man was taken way too soon...Rest easy Mitch!!!
This is a great set. I cant believe I havent seen this until now.
Same
Same here 2
If I ever open a restaurant and I serve soup then it will be labeled on the menu: Soup From Now On.
I used to watch Mitch Hedberg, I still do but I used to too… RIP my man. Death sucks. Thanks for this Team Coco.
MITCH, BECAUSE OF YOU I DEMAND A RECIEPT AFTER EVERY DONUT TRANSACTION, HAHA! YOUR FANS WILL ALWAYS BRING INK AND PAPER INTO THIS. WE LOVE YOU!

Man I wish he was still around.
The soup of the day joke fucking kills. So clever.
I miss him so much.
Miss Mitch so much, saw him perform a few weeks before his death the show was amazing alot of new material
@@bighatloganband better now than never! Plenty of his stuff is floating around - seek it out
I found him after his death too from routines on Sirius XM. Brilliant and original.
He was a brilliant comic. I really enjoyed his delivery and his absurdist humor. Gone too soon.
Miss Mitch Hedberg so much. He was an absolute genius taking "normal" thing's we already know and turning them into comedy gold.
RIP To one the best. 🙏💯💯💯💯
the map joke with the pins got me
Wish Mitch was still around. No one like him ❤️
"Dr. Scholl makes foot products. He went to school for a really long time to tell me that walking on a cushion would be more comfortable. I'd have taken that advice from a Mr. Scholl, or a Señor Scholl."
The best ever in my opinion. He gives me pure joy. The type of humour that is so pure, yet so clever. Genius ♥️
Mitch does have the 70's drug dealer look in full effect! 👍
I love Mitch!
Love it,,he proves humor can be simple and great 👍
Mitch. ❤ always makes my day better miss him.
U corny
This was new stuff for me, I always smile as soon as he starts talking because I have never not laughed listening to him.
Wow I keep seeing old Mitch I’ve never seen ,tonight . Awesome
Some forget Mitch was the hamburger joint owner in that 70’s Show!
Omg what
I remember that..I don't think a lot of people knew who he was at that time, but I had been listening to his stuff for awhile before he was on the show so I noticed it right away.. He was so damn funny and taken from us way too young but he will never be forgotten..
He was 100% golden in it, too. He stole every scene he was in...
"I did not lose a leg in Vietnam so that I could serve hotdogs to teenagers."
"...you have both your legs."
"Like I said, I did NOT lose a leg in Vietnam."
Gone to soon.
“Sometimes it’s better to burnout than fade away”

Thx for this brilliant upload team Coco
When I was a boy, I'd lie in my twin size bed and wonder where my brother was. 🤣
He was so funny and endearing. His unique observations and delivery made the jokes more funny and sometimes surprising. He was one of a kind.
the cold sore bit killed me
Still of my favorite comics! Bless him
The camera showing his shoes was my favorite part, he wasn't ready for that
Best part of this set and it was on the fly. Miss Mitch..
"Soup from now on" agreed
Merry go round and burrito bwahahahaha
He is just 1 good stand-up comedian. Funny as hell.
Dude was on another level.

How have I missed this guy?? What a wonderful comedian and a lovely guy by all accounts.
Love how Mitch always wins over a crowd. They start off kinda awkward and wondering what hes doing, by the end they are laughing their heads off.
A brilliant, enhanced mind.
The map joke was great.
Mitch is definitely my all time favorite comedian! I wish he was still around
He will always be my favorite comedian
Can we all give Mitch his due credit for inventing the McGriddle?
And now they have zero calorie Gatorade for us thirsty regular folks!
A Truly Tragic & Sad Loss..Thanks For All You Gave Us..Gone But Definitely Not Forgotten..R.I.P. Mitch 🙏 ❤
Wow...never saw this performance before...thanks!
Definition of "a comedian's comedian"
One of the greatest to ever do it 🙌 👏
Mitch was unique dude, I liked his character voicing on Dr. Katz, great show.
Its called 2nd unit, shooting seconds, longshots, it is photorealistic camera obscura...truly.
RIP Mitch. You’re definitely missed.
He absolutely slays. Needed this today.
Thanks for posting this. I had heard many of these jokes but not others like the Gatorade and fish stick ones. I love Mitch Hedberg so I appreciate this clip!
I wouldn't want to know someone who doesn't laugh at Mitch Hedberg's comedy. Miss ya big man! Gone but not forgotten.
This was a lovely surprise. Thks.
Ohmygod I never knew he did a spot on Conan. Their comedy styles are so similar: finding the absurd and distilling it into a skit for Conan, and a one-line joke for Mitch. I miss him so much! Wonder what he could have been today if he hadn't passed away so young.
He made another appearance on the show later! Here it is: czcams.com/video/Z_XbtYfrNYI/video.html
He was on there more than once.
He was so funny. I wish he was still here with us to keep us laughing.
In the words of Mitch… “alright”
When someone hands you a flyer, it's like they're saying here, you throw this away lol
