A lecture and stand-up show combined! 😍😂😂😂😂
A Jewish mother and her adult son go to the beach, the son, a poor swimmer goes out too far and gets in trouble. His mother sees him flailing and splashing but she can't swim "Help Help" she shouts to the lifeguard "my son, the doctor, is drownng"
Hahaha 🤪 that was one of those jokes man, the part that I found most hilarious is her son her boy her little Bubala is drowning but she still has to mention “my son, the doctor” as in I raised him he’s my accomplishment there for his successes and accomplishments are also my accomplishments my successes. I know how a Jewish mother is I was hit by a car she was hit by a car (for sympathy reasons) I won the lawsuit with my attorneys she’s the one who actually won the lawsuit hell she was the flipping lawyer. Every day of my formative years she reminded me “I could have been a lawyer if it wasn’t for having to raise you and your siblings” ma you didn’t go to college “I could have gone to college but you kids” there’s no winning with a Jewish mother.
Aa
Think that would be old history. Now that son would have to learn to swim to graduate from any college.
@@adammiller8096indeed! Lol
Don’t forget Totie Fields. Great Jewish female comic and groundbreaker. Died in 1978.
Let's not forget the funniestJEWISH EULEGY on ALL IN THE FAMILY WHEN ARCHIE BUNKER REMEMBERS STRETCH CUNNINGHAM.HILARIOUS😃😃😃😃😃
And let's not forget those who aren't happy unless they're offended by something, which, in itself, makes something even MORE funnier.
Kvetch, kvetch, kvetch...
I heard that Bar-Mizwah joke in a german church at the celebration of confirmation.
This man seems really nice. He must be reformed. He’s not wearing a yarmulke. But he can still be Jewish. And really creative. My Literature of Holocaust professor told us not to tell anymore Jewish jokes. One of the first questions we had to answer in the literature class is what does a Jewish person look like? My Jewish friend told me bright. I can’t remember. Caring, generous, friendly and healthy. Yes and fun. Religious. Since people kept on telling me for most of my life that I don’t look Jewish, I decided that they had to look like my Dad’s side of the family. I had light hair. I wrote that a Jewish person has dark hair and eyes. Now I know how ignorant that answer is. I fell for the stereotype. I felt stupid. I learned a lot in the class about the European holocaust that I did not know before even though I was middle aged. You may say that I sound conceited, but now I know way more about Judaism. It is more than the holocaust, but traditions. My grandparents did not live in Europe during the twelve years of the Holocaust. We are Americans. So is Adam Sandler, Harrison Ford, Goldie Hahn and Lauren Bacall. You can learn more with Chaim Potok books. I think he went to Yeshiva school.
Wait....Harrison Ford is Jewish?
You're a Jew who lives in America one could also argue.
Jewish Dad Jokes are awesome.
The lifesaving joke is told over and over and over........
And in different ways. I first heard it with "he had a cat".
Thanks for Uploading.
The law behind ultra orthodox Jews not wanting to push an elevator button is because in the scripture is prohibits "making a circuit" on the Sabbath.
Can someone explain the 'Dallas downtown' joke?
300 acres of downtown Dallas would be worth far more than the big ranches with their many many cattle, @Salman Mazumder.
The other two look down on him, but it turns out that he's much richer than them.
VERY INTRESTING AND EDUCATIONAL ON JEWISH COMEDY.LETS NOT FORGET BILLY CRYSTAL AND DICK SHAWN.
GREATEST MOVIE ON JEWISH COMEDY
THE SUNSHINE BOYS WITH GEORGE BURNS AND WALTER MATHAU.
.. and let's not forget to switch off the caps lock.
Most jokes can be traced back to the original more sophisticated jewish version of the joke.
Came here after watching his interview with Elizabeth Holmes.
Uuï GOP
Link to the interview?
Totally unorginal, I know. I must reiterate this! "Compared to his brother he was a Mensch!" This joke just broke my balls!
Now here’s one. There was debate about who was the better preacher , the Pope of Rome, or Billy Graham. So , they rented Madison Square Gardens and both of them preached a sermon. After the Pope finished his sermon, 500 people came forward to receive Christ. After Billy Graham preached, 500 people came forward to receive Christ. Then Pat Boone stood up and sang that old classic gospel song “The Streets of Heaven are Paved with Gold” and 10,000 JEWS immediately joined the U.S. Airforce! LOL….
Just claim to be what your country is and forget religion.
Some of the slang words that he uses are not defined and he mumbles them.
He’s terrible at telling jokes.
I missed some of those, but I did catch the word El Al in the airline joke that closed captioning missed.
By slang do you mean Yiddish? Lol
The Marx Brothers were the best and it was all down hill from there as it just be came about smut which started with Woody Allen.
You missed Jackie Mason. Funny, no smut. Ditto Don Rickles and Jonathan Winters, Johnny Carson, Jackie Leonard, etc.
Henny Youngman, Milton Berle. Shecky Greene,Jack Carter, jack Benny
Rodney Dangerfield. Probably the best rapid fire stand-up comedian ever.
I think, Larry David deserves to be in the mt. rushmore too.
Woody Allen pretty much worked clean.
The speaker references that we all needed something to laugh about because we just elected Trump. Here is a point worth noting. The difference between Trump and the other presidents is Trump doesn't do it behind your back. Jews should read more Malcolm X start with Ballots or bullets. It's appropriate.
Donald Trump...the worst president in American humor?
I’ll .z really smell me
The jokes made me smile but lots of attempts at being "PC" Exhausting. Also a "mensch" by it's literal definition can only be a man. I guess with todays limited linguistic array the short and simple way you can get the definition across is "a stand up guy". An honorable,honest,strong,responsible man etc... you get the idea.
Before you wokers start kvetching regarding my definition,Im defining the word "mensch" which is a word that dates back hundreds maybe even a thousand or more years (not sure how long our ancestors have been speaking Yiddish and I dont believe it is a German word).
SOMEONE SAID JEWISH COMEDY IS SUFFERING IN TIME
ROGER MANSOUR
MESSIANIC JEW
Where are the hitler memes?????/
Zzzzzzzzzz.
This is racist. Its like saying Chinese humor ..
Humans are funny. Not races.
there is jewish culture, and cultures have distinct approach to humour
Is Chinese takeaway racist?
@@yggdrasil9039 if you bring cash. The drive through is like a pit stop.
I think its okay to say jewish humor cause they are funny. Its okay to identify unique aspects of people grouos
You're obviously not Jewish, so you can't understand...it has nothing to do with racism...it's having the ability to laugh at one's self at one's own expense.
