How Gary Gulman is Changing Stand-Up
Vložit
- čas přidán 15. 08. 2024
- Gary Gulman! One of the best. A look into the work behind his material and the incredible, risky way he hacked (usually banal) stand-up comedy on late shows. Fun stuff.
Think of this as the other side of the spectrum from the Rory Scovel video. Two of my all-time favorite comedians with completely different stylings -- opposites but both doing exactly what works for them :)

This is so impressive Katie! Thank you for putting a spotlight on one of the kindest, most beautiful guys I've known. Gary is a brilliant comedian. He's the writer I wish I was. George Carlin and Gary on same video is sublime. I've subscribed. Look forward to more content. Great job. JJ
Gary Gulman is one of the best articulators I've ever heard. In This Economy is one of the best stand ups I've ever seen. He's amazing. And this is a great video. Excellent job. I say that as a Gary Gulman fan. This is a really great video.
I truly thank you for giving credit to Gary Gulman, my favorite comedian, with this video. I, unfortunately, found Gary's sets a lot later than I would've wanted to. I watched and listened to comedians since the age of 4 and always love understanding their personal process of the writing and executing. When I found Gary's material I was overwhelmingly shocked at how amazing he was. Story telling jokes are my favorite because it's all on the performance/execution. He's so talented at making every sentence of the story very laughable.
Gary Gulman, even in a pure fantasy bit, is completely immersed and delivers relatable authenticity.
I love it when I can watch a comedian and feel smarter. I love it!
Thanks so much for this vid. Gary has become my favorite comedian recently and after retracing my steps I realized this was my introduction to him! Great content keep it up
I just discovered him. What I like most about him is how erudite he is. There are not a lot of comics who are so nakedly highbrow.
I'm from Boston suburbs and Gary is hilarious. First saw him on his Netflix special I think with the Karate Kid bit but he's low key a total riot
Gary Gulman is brilliant and yet down to earth and totally relatable. I love his genius writing in combination with his friendly execution style. So likable and utterly hilarious!
Great reflections on a great comedian. Have always appreciated his sincerity and transparency. Glad he's finally getting the recognition he deserves.
It's funny, I like a wide range of comedians..and delivery styles. I just love Zach's sarcastic stuff, Steven Wrights deadpan one liners, and recently discovered Gary Gulman.
I can listen to him all day.
I'll leave with this...
Imagine if Jeff Goldblum and Christopher Walken we're stand up comedians?! They way they speak makes you smile before you laugh if you get what I mean.
They are already half-way there...just need a nice written set and they would kill it on stage.
My first question is, who the f is katie mears??? My second question, what performance enhancing drugs is she on? because she's on point and nailing it with every video. I'm very excited to watch the rest of these!
I think your observations about this solid comedian are pretty spot on Katie. I listen to No Can Defend, In this Economy, and Convos w/Inanimate Objects EVERY NIGHT (they're my white nose to fall asleep to 😂). I was pretty reserved about the basis of your opinions, but I long ago recognised the genius of his writing, and when I started to watch, saw that you recognised it too! Then you named the late, and very great, Mitch, and all doubt l had disintegrated. Well put!
i also listen to them every night. really inspires me. favorite bit ?
@@MitsuoRLCoach I like all of them, but off hand, I think I would say the Trump v Bill Gates bit is pretty funny(& relevant), as well as the bit where he talks about how old his dad is.
@@jailaverty80 mine has to be role play or the part where he says there will never be a Jewish president
I love Norm Macdonald’s word choices, his use of an arcane or archaic word at just the right moment, or appeal to common experience of terms or phrases that aren’t ...oh, and names...
“You never heard tell of a boot?” Norm’s brilliant Scrabble story.
Great video! Gary definitely deserves this coverage
"This is so Dottie, How Dottie is this? She goes, you mean the minute"
Hi Katie, your channel is freaking awesome. rarely is there a channel where every single video has this much information and thought put into my favorite form of entertainment (tied with music). Thank you for you so much for your dedication to comedy. Keep up the fantastic content!
Most of us regular folk out here watch comedians and hope to laugh. You brilliantly educate us in the craft/art that comedy is. Thank you.
p.s. love the white background.
I would like to know your thoughts on Norm MacDonald. I find him to have an odd style of comedy he never tells story's about himself or people. He talks more for the joke. Just to have a joke and nothing more.
Yes! Norm is an interesting cat. And from what I've seen, Katie has interesting analytical perspectives. perfect combo
me too
I'll never forget seeing Gary Gulman doing a whole set on one story - how trader joe's is better than whole foods. He tells a story that happens to have funny tangents and anecdotes, whereas the other comedians told jokes and waited for laughs. Night and day.
100 calorie Oreos....if the soup of the day is marshmallow bisque....I died!!!
Stand up comedy is THE art form. Every viewing the art changes shape, color, size, depth, modality and length.
I have only ever shared one single standup act on my 11 years of Facebook, and it was his State Abbreviation video.
I wouldn’t say Gary Gulman *thinks* he’s a writer. The guy truly *is a brilliant writer*
Sad to say I've only just discovered Gary. What a great comedian!
I love Pete Holmes' use of language and Mike Birbiglia's storytelling and narrative structure. Gary does both and he has a sweet sort of anxious disposition that I find endearing and real and more relatable than some comedians who'll put up a front.
Great video!! I love your channel. It's a great place for fans of comedy on CZcams. I really appreciate the work you put in. Please keep making videos.
Could you please do Mitch Hedberg next?
I’m loving this video ... you are speaking my mind about the *holding mics comment*
Really glad I found this channel. Looking forward to more content in the future!
excellent observations. thanks.
Gary Gulman is greatness!
Brave and smart and so sincere, well done!
If you, or someone you know suffers from depression or anxiety, I implore you to see The Great Depresh. I was watching it for the third time this month, awash in emotion for this brave, vulnerable, honest and incredibly funny man. I turned to my wife to say, I don't know what it is about this guy, but-"He's you, Spanky. He is you.", interrupted my ocassionally casually dismissive, but very astute, and loving wife of fifteen years. Even in her exaggerated way, my wife was not wrong, but you don't have to be a big sensitive guy of a certain age with an expansive lexicon to take something away from this stand up special. I think Gary Gulman could actually be saving lives with The Great Depresh, while still keeping it funny AF
I don't know if he's innovative enough for a spotlight, but Mark Normand is a young comic who has some pretty solid material.
how do you mean "innovative" ?
I hate to be the one to kill the 420 likes count, but awesome video, had to be the 421st one to like
Bill Hicks would be an interesting choice if you ever get around to it, but rest assured should you choose Carlin or Martin I will be watching. All of your videos analyzing different comedians signatures of comedy are insightful; you, Katie Mears, are my new woman crush of CZcams. Keep them coming!
Love this channel.
Gary was on "This American Life" on NPR today, June 1st, and told a great story about his football playing experience. BUT, there is a surprise at the end of his story. The episode is available online starting at 7PM Central time on June 2nd. Check it out.
This style of comedy is what I love about Mike Birbiglia.
Steve Martin!! A wild and crazy guy.
Mike is also someone who shows you that he writes very diligently
Great review of GG!
If you aren't a fan of Norm MacDonald I highly encourage you to watch his Conan guest appearances (the moth joke will slay you). Some people can't stand Norm but for my money he is the greatest comedian alive currently.
2:25 These comedians that feel like writers who have directed speech that has precision and accuracy. Of course the giant in this field has to be. Before she uttered another word I shouted out George Carlin.
Yo, Katie. When you return to YT, we all look forward to hearing your thoughts on Matt Rife
Nice video as always Katie! Cant wait to see your thoughts on Carlin.
There's an intellect behind being silly, charming and clownish too. He's done jokes like that as well like the hierarchy of cookies and No Can Defend. Showing us his intellect is not what makes him a great comedian, it's his gift for knowing what makes people laugh. It's his ability to observe absurdity in everyday things.
This is lovely
I like your analysis of Gary Gulman's comedy, and I am a huge fan of him. However, I feel you should come up with a more specific work for "gross" because I'm not entirely sure what you mean by that. The word seems to be very general and I'm not sure it really applies to comedy (unless the comedy is specifically meant to be gross).
Great video! I Instantly subscribed. Would love to see you talk about Stewart Lee!
Yeah the lack of mentioning norm in this just is very strange. And who doesn’t know Patton Oswald?!
And always clean humour.
I have such a crush on him
The "schlimazels" of Los Angeles wonder why Gary left them out of the losers list. They're most comfortable appearing right after the schlemiel. You know, like, "the schlemiel spills the soup on the schlimazel", right?
Pretty cool video thanks
I’d love to hear your take on Dylan Moran and Stewart Lee.
This is also a large part of what is called "anti-comedy". A style in which the established tropes and structures of comedy are willfully violated, crowd work and "hiding the seams" being among the most integral parts of traditional comedy structure. One of the first in the modern era is the British Alternative comedian Stewart Lee.
I discovered him from his stand up at Joker the movie. Who else?
He’s been around for years.
If you like "literary" comedians, also check out Stewart Lee from the UK
Nice love letter.
How dare you compare a hack like Dane Cook to Gary Gulman.
Good commentary overall, but your position on stand-ups holding a mic is silly.
It's her personal preference. It's not silly.
Ali wong definetly
Soooooo, you don’t watch African American comedians? U missing out if you have never chocked laughing from watching Dave Chappelle.
Just copied Sebastian maniscalco on late night with Seth Meyers .. chipotle. Corn ? Corn ? Copy much ??
She gets a lot oif words wrong
Can’t
CZcamsrs are not real comedians.
I wish you were my girlfriend. You understand me so much.
You are attaching WAY too much depth to this guy. He's funny, but if you think he's really that special and unique, i would say you're pretty sheltered
Really? I am 63 years old, and I have been watching standup since I was 9. This guy is one of the best.
I think he is "really that special and unique" and think he really connects w his audience.
Lol stop being such a hater u have jealousy and ignorance written all over your shitty and wrong opinion. He is that special and unique you're just too stupid and simple minded to comprehend and appreciate his talent. Dont shit on her for expressing her opinion about her favorite comedian just because ur miserable and useless and have no talent of ur own. Gary gulman is a wordsmith and one of the best and your opinion of him is meaningless
