I absolutely love that you don't feel you have to look at, or even face, the audience.

My favourite Autism euphemism is "person living with Asperger." It gives me the chance to ask whether they are roommates or "roommates", who pays the rent, whether they share chores, and so on.

Thank you so much for making this show. I am an autistic girl who has recently been discovering that I should, in fact, be myself everywhere-and not just the masked “self” the adults in my life told me to be. You exactly voice all the truths I have been realizing about being autistic that I just want others to know and believe. I am so glad to know that there is someone else who feels the same way about being yourself as an autistic person. Once again, thank you so much for making and recording this show, Joe. You have inspired me, and thanks to you, I feel more strongly than ever about two things. Firstly, that cross-country skiing is ridiculous, and, second and more importantly, that autistic people like me should genuinely be themselves. Thank you.

51:00 got to me, out of nowhere. I started tearing up because I don't think I've ever heard that perspective explained, and I wasn't ready for how much it would make a lot of things in my childhood make sense. Thanks for that, genuinely. It was also a very funny comedy show, I'm subscribing

Me: *finishes watching this video* Me: Hey dear? You wanna watch some stand up with me? *Immediately restarts this video on a shared household device so my partner can watch too* 0_0 I think I might be one of the four.

Nice one Joe! We Autistics are the funniest!

Found this very funny, thanks. The audience seemed rather cold, but perhaps they were being quiet because they were listening intently.

Fantastic set, thank you. You spoke directly to some of us and I for one got to watch it on KZfaq without buying a ticket so as a poor autistic person I feel especially seen.

Wow! This made me laugh so much. I want to talk about this but don't want to give away spoilers. The song is stuck in my head. I relate to this. I wish I could tell stories this well. This is a rollercoaster barrage of witticism. I needed this. I want more. Thank you. This made my day.

Yay, finally a whole show! Thank you!

So happy to see a full show!

Absolutely awesome, thank you so much 😀

Oh, I LOVE this!! Thank you for existing

Oh how cool, the whole show! 😍 Thank you so much!!

Love this! Have sent it to my neurodiverse friends. I loved the wit but also the gentleness in the way you share it. Look forward to watching more of your stuff and going down a Robert White rabbit hole, fab song! Thank you :D

absolute legend, thank you for making this available here :-)

I was so excited to see that the full show was available! Such a funny guy.

Absolutely brilliant 👏

This is great, man! Such a good show!

Fabulous set Joe ❤

I listen to stand up comedy all the time and you are an amazing find for me! Clever, deep, a bit different so as any good stand up comedian. I want to hear more from you! Thank you!

I think the Autistic internal monologue has a large amount of "what the fuck are you talking about?!?!?!" in it lol.

Brilliant! Made my day. Thank you.

This was hilarious, I haven't laughed this hard in a long time. I relate so much to this. Thank you!

Brilliant!

I'm the 3rd one of the 4 of our lot, stimmimg the loop button 😂Great show mate.

Thank you so much for this.

This was incredibly good.

bloody brilliant, obvs

Top notch

Joe what a fab show 🙂 a marvellous joy to behold.

Good set, my friend!

Wonderful ❤

Loved the "severely" list on NTs!

You deserved more laughs this was gold 😂

Yay!!!!! Can’t wait to watch this right now. I am making taquitos. Autism swag

You should be a spokesperson for autistic people, feels like you are speaking from my brain.

Love this. Love the representation. Hilarious and relatable.

Super, well done Joe!

wow i love this. i got to see you once at a multiple-comedian show, and this is the first time im seeing a full show of yours. i absolutely loved it, thank you for this. im also autistic and i like comedy to sort of relate to the world. your comments about how people think autistic people dont understand humour were great (and funny!)

Omg your comedy is SO BRILLIANT 🤣😂🤣😂

This has made me laugh and it helped me understand myself better. ❤

Absolutely hilarious! 😂 xx

went to see you back in december 2021 with my also autistic best friend (in a hugely overstimulating comedy club). I know allistics watch your shows but they feel like they were written 'for' us autistics. nice to have something specifically for us.

The nosebleed section loved your eye contact

So funny!

fire show thank you supreme leader joe

Clever, funny, brilliant

Think differently! 👍

Throughly enjoyed his style😂

Great show, thanks for sharing, I just followed you on the socials. Quick question: Did go faster stripe get you to do the sound of a cow that turns into a dog at the beginning or did they record that?

Hilarious. I love your jokes

I was several decades out of high school until I leaned to ask back, "I'm good, how are you?"... Used to just say "good" then ignore them. I might be on the spectrum...

What's wrong with "Goodbye kids and grownups!"? What was he supposed to say?

100% be yourself 😊

As a drummer that has taught an autistic student Cannibal Corpse blast beats, I highly approve.

Apropos the Gatwick Hotel bit. Currently, there is a trial in Norway on a huge drug smuggling operation. Some of the involved claimed they are just here on vacation. As evidence that they are not in any way here to enjoy themselves and are in fact EXTREMELY SUSPECT, the prosecution point out that they voluntarily stayed in the airport hotel.

I'm not autistic but still enjoyed it.

If I had a dollar for every time I was told (sometimes by complete strangers) "Instead of saying x, you should say blah, blah, blah..."... And I live in a country where Freedom of Speech is black letter law in the Constitution. People want you to make THEM comfortable, never the reverse.

Wondering if this was recommended to me because I’m actually undiagnosed. Also does autistic boil down to watched a lot of tv s as a child and is currently not a dick?

Funny shit

OMG I'm 51, and I think I'm autistic LMAO.... I never knew, just thought it was OCD and ADHD LMFAO Ps, effin hilarious!!😂😂😂🎉🎉

this might be the first comedy show that legitimately made me cry. it made me laugh too, but every comedy show does that, that's nothing special :P :D

"Loosen up" is the worst. Luckily, I live in northern Europe, where shyness and introvert behavior is sort of ok (although not always understood) most of the time. Having a an inspired person violently and self-righteously pulling you onto a dance floor and, with threat of public ridicule, forcing you to dance in the name of self-expression, love, spiritual freedom and all things extrovert is my idea of hell. More hips, mf, more hips or you suck!

😂😯😢🤯🤣🥳🙏🏼

Chris rock has nonverbal learning disorder which is on the spectrum, that’s what I have too

I love Cannibal Corpse! 😀

ha

The finacial arguement for neuro-diversity. Money is just an idea, real wealth comes from people. I remember seeing a conspiracy video about "viral warfare" around the time of covid and it said something along the lines of "a virus kills the people but leaves the wealth intact". If you actually think about that all you would have is a load of empty buildings and resources decaying. If you take their money it would have the same effect as printing more money, it would devalue your currency. I'd love to know if our species will ever loose its obsession with money, at the end of the day its a man made idea and puts up barriers to actually helping people. We have been enslaved by our obsession to safeguard the economy which we worship as if it was a god. For me this is what the Infinity ♾️ stands for, theres a limited number of one and an infinity of the other 🍁

You went to padnell? I feel sorry for you

Can someone explain the joke please😭

Seems I'm one of the 40% who can't see where that joke is going. Can anyone explain it to me please?

High heels hurt and autism can make you clumsy. Nail polish and all the stuff in beauty salons smells too strong. Tight clothes...well you see why an autistic girl wouldn't fit the Barbie doll gender markers, but I have never been anything but what I am--female. Just not "female impersonator".

why is this guy wearing a cup

Well we're all people with brains, so calling autistic people 'people with autism' isn't that far off = D

You're funny and I like some of your observations. When you spoke about how autism is like being an airport hotel, I thought you were going to say people only stick around for very short periods. I do just find your show annoying politically. You may be genuinely liberal but it surely also helps that this society won't tolerate anything else. These days it's hard to distinguish genuine liberals/leftists from the average person who just espouses such views because they don't want to get cancelled. This is why American comedy is generally better because they have genuine political discourse where both liberal and conservative views can be expressed and there is a tension there which means comedy can be risky. In 21st century UK comedy there's nothing but soul-crushing conformity to liberal views, and silly hyperbole about the Daily Mail being literally Hitler. By the way if you do find yourself speaking for autistic people please don't say "we don't believe in gender". You definitely don't speak for me. Or if that is true it's that I don't believe in gender but in biological sex. I'm also not looking for "allies" ugh.

Don’t like jokes of spouses. I have ASD and do NOT find that funny at all.:(🤷🏻‍♀️

Watched this with my hubby tonight. Laughed harder than I expected and it gave me practice with accents and repeating certain words you said.
