This is the most serious I’ve ever heard Theo speak. As wild as his content is he handled this w class.

"I don't know him, but I know I don't borrow his shit." Probably the most gentlemanly "fuck you" I've ever heard. Amazing. Theo is a legend.

"So you hate him?"....TF kind of lame question is that?!

David Portnoy trying to force disproportionate drama over stolen content with the "so you hate him?" is very ironic, since serial content stealing is a big part of Barstool as a business.

Not at all a fan of Lil dicky or the show Dave, but I'd need a compilation of proof because a wooden shirt anecdote doesn't cut it lol.

Crazy they stole the least funny joke Theo ever told

Theo been taking the gloves off lately and I'm here for it

I love Theo, and I would have his back 100%, but I'm gonna need a little more evidence than this that Lil Dicky stole his jokes.

“lil dicky steals your shit?” In unison. Lol. That had me laughing my ass off

IDK man... kind of a stretch to call it "borrowed content" or joke theft. It wasn't so much a joke as it was a weird, random story. And on top of that, it was an entirely different story than the one in the show. The only shared thing between the two is the idea of a "wood shirt" which you can clearly see from the google image search is not an idea completely unique to Theo.

Thats clearly just one example, theo is not the type of guy that gets pissed off about someone or something very often, especially publicly. So to see him like this, he definitely feels that one of the writers of that show is stealing material, it might not be exactly the same, like theres people that know theo really well from that show and they just so happen to both come up with the wooden shirt bit? Thats suss af! Ive only watched a tiny bit of that show and it wouldnt surprise me if someone has said were going to make dicky character simular to how theo sees the world. Ut it this way, if theo thinks this, i believe him and they probably are indirectly using some of theos work.

If I was going to steal jokes I’d steal them from someone else.

Theo looks genuinely pissed about it too.

I mean, Jamie pulling up hundreds of images of wooden shirts tells me that the idea of a wooden shirt isn't unheard of. If he directly stole the story of himself as a kid buying a wooden shirt to wear as body armor because he was getting beat up on the bus, then he'd have a case. No hate to either comedian either, both are hilarious.

I like them both, but I think Theo needs to cite specific jokes if he’s going to throw that accusation around. The wooden shirt thing is pretty flimsy evidence to me

Thank you for this video!!! Because its something I've been wondering about since I seen that BFFs clip. I'm definitely subscribing, can't wait to see future stuff you show.

The issue with shows of this nature lies in their extensive team of writers. Individuals like Dave may not even be aware of the original source of the ideas, simply selecting amusing elements from the pool of writers' contributions. While it is true that he should exercise more caution in filtering out content and identifying potential plagiarism, realistically speaking, it is highly unlikely that he has the time to meticulously examine each and every joke that comes his way

How is nobody mentioning the Ludwig AI voice lmao

And these writers have the balls to go on strike after joke stealing😂

Rogan takes everything so seriously. “Was it solid or weaved?” Lol wtf

“wooden shirt” isnt a joke. its an idea of a joke

There needs to be more given examples and they have to be closely related. Even then, in my opinion isn't stealing. They heard a man tell a funny story so they brought the concept to life but created a different version. It may have been influenced by Theo but not a reason to see Lil dicky as a competitor. I'm about to start a dark humor based cartoon series about a talking tree family that wear wooden shirts. In one scene the tree boy gets beat up on the bus. Not after he gets on wearing the skin of another tree.. Sawdust flakes falling from his little branch head.. I just did the same thing Dicky's writers did in this example that I just made up. And honestly it sounds like it has potential if it were real. That's how everything is made.

"I just reentered society" I felt that.

*"The Reason Theo Von Accused Lil Dicky Of Stealing His Jokes"* The reason: because he does.

If this is the only thing then Theo is trippin

I remember Theo before he even blew up. So proud of him

Thank you for making this video - this nees to be known and dealt with asap - gang gang

Was waiting for this, need more than one example though

If the wooden shirt is all you got... no jokes were stolen. Making a joke about the same subject matter as someone else isn't the same as stealing their joke.

It's a hard argument to make when you only have one instance.I remember when i'm remember when people were pointing out amy schumer for being a joke thief and her jokes were literally word for word, or completely the same scenario, there we're like I don't know maybe Between seven and nine.

So he makes a serious accusation and then throws his hands up and provides no further context?

Normally a huge Theo Von fan, but imo you shouldn't bring something like this up without going into details. Joke stealing ruins comedians' careers and to get people to have this impression of Lil Dicky without backing it up is kind of messed up. There are definitely people who consider Lil Dicky a joke stealer now without even being able to name what was stolen. The wooden shirt thing is a stretch imo, and if that is literally the only thing the internet can find, and the internet is pretty good at this type of stuff, seems like a claim that needs justification.

Yeah I’m rolling with Theo 🤣🤣 His story telling of his childhood is hilarious 🤣🤣

How is it not a theory that Bobby is the one doing it lol.

"Do YoU HaTe HiM" lmao dave still in kindergarten with questions

Its not unheard of. Im 36, when I was in junior high we joked about wooden clothes (pants AND shirts) because of the wooden dutch shoes or whatever. Neither Theo Von nor Lil Dicky were even a thing back in the late 90's early 2000's when my friends & i joked about that very thing. Many people have the same thoughts just a different creative angle. Its far from uncommon. You ever hear someone you've never seen use a word your group of friends uses that you dont hear anyone else use really? Or phrase...or hear a song lyric and make up your own funny version, just to hear someone else on youtube made a video about it? Also, hearing Theo tell a story about it and using that isnt stealing jokes...especially if its a true story. That's just using that story as inspiration. Stealing his joke wouldve been if he made up that story for a bit. Am I wrong? Not taking either side, but i feel people put too much attachment to "their jokes" some times.

Its sort of like the typewriter monkey paradox with this one. Like Theo Von comes up with the most crazyest shit its almost impossible someone would come up with such shit coincidentelly, Yet Theo has talked SO much crazy shit that its nearly impossible to pull the wildest most outlandish shit out of your ass and it not having being said casually as a side note in one of Theo´s stories already.

Usually Theo is chill and doesn’t talk shit about people.

There are only so many takes on each topic but damn.. that is a specific reference..

If this is the only example, it’s easily explainable as coincidence. Also, they didn’t steal the joke unless we’re saying Theo invented the possibility of a wood shirt and nobody can say anything about wood shirts ever. It’s unlikely Theo was the first person to speak the idea of a wood shirt into existence.

Is it just me, or do you have the same tone in your voice as Ludwig? I can’t be the only one hearing it. I legit thought it was Lud for the first half of this video. Hahaha

I can’t believe they recorded that scene, watched it and let it go through lol

Some dude from my town who dressed like Elvis also played Santa made a wooden shot for his son. -Theo Von

Joe Rogan is the worst person to try jokes out with.

The fact that theo explaining it is funny than the actual scene tells me enough

Nobody said where we can get the wooden shirts ?

So he talked about it on Rogan. And they pulled up several websites showing wooden shirts. Meaning, they’ve been there for a while already. Also, the way he told it was a “story” about a kid who had a wooden shirt made for him. Absolutely nothing like the way it was used on the show. Not stolen. Just a similar concept.

To me Theo implied that it was multiple jokes were stolen for the show but that one joke is not necessarily the same. It doesn’t mean he’s a joke stealer in my eyes til I see more proof. I love them both as comedians btw!

Dave's show is good but the writers def steal material.

The only travesty here is Joe Rogan talking about wooden shirts like Theo wasn't telling a joke

Looks like he was making fun of Theo over stealing his jokes . Not cool either way. Theo has always been a bit silly. I remember seeing him on the real world for the first time and have loved him ever since!

Theo could've been messing around as well.

These just hurt that his original material wasn't as original as he thought. Not even the same joke verbatim

When people answer „too many“ after being asked to give examples… they do be lying.

I don’t know. I mean they were looking up wooden shirts and they already existed. The Dave skit just had a wooden shirt. If it was a guy making one for a kid that gets beat up I’d say that was stolen but just because there was a wooden shirt. That’s reaching IMO. I also hear Theo has a pretty big temper and dislikes a lot of people.

this is BARELY joke stealing. its at best parallel thinking

The Ludwig ai voice is unsettling

Is that a Ludwig AI voice? Lmao

I remember a kid I grew up with had this very idiosyncratic joke about his friends abusive alcoholic dad would get drunk on wine coolers and beat him. Super funny but it was never taped or anything. Recently Stavros Halkias had a joke that was almost verbatim the joke but obviously there’s no way he stole it. Not saying Dicky didn’t steal but there is chances of jokes being replicated unintentionally.

Dickys writers got some explaining to do 🤷🏽‍♂️

Anyone have any examples other than the wooden shirt?

Theo is in a wired balance of smart Af and oblivious at the same time 😂 imo he’s the best comedian and human being I’ve ever seen

Dude this was the longest 5 min video I ever seen holy shit

if this is the only example then theo is 100% just being sensitive. theo didn't invent the concept of a wooden shirt. the punchlines and situation in the show aren't remotely similar to theo's story.

Idk the wooden shirt thing is kind of a reach so many people could think of that

“This kid needed it too…people used to beat him up. Is that salmon?!”

Dude if you tell 20,000 jokes, and one seems similar it’s going to happen

Theo stole it from a cartoon lol.

How is this stealing a joke when it's not a joke

Today i learnt that little dicky and harry mack are 2 different ppl. Every day is a school day.😂😂

The fact that you can google and see examples of wooden shirts means a lot.

what is theo on about, to get that upset over a similar concept is crazy. Also, if you're going to accuse someone and then not provide examples you might as well just not say anything

It def feels like Theo Von believes this to be true. But besides the wooden shirt bit, has anyone seen any other jokes ripped from Theo show up on Dave?

He didn’t even steal a full joke. He “stole” a premise of a fucking goofy subject and made it even funnier if anything.

Theo might be a little out of pocket here. That's quite an accusation with not much meat to it.

Theo is a sensitive person. He has so much love but is not above mood swings, resentment, and self pity. He is a vulnerable human being. Imagine catalogued volumes of your words, emotion and personality for the world to watch, chop up and make videos of. Best moods, worst moods, ect. Actually joke stealing or not I have tremendous love and support for Theo.

I’ve watched so many comedy specials where I’ve heard similar jokes. It’s part of the game and the delivery

Cmon. Where did you get that wooden shirt bit from 😮😮😮😮😮

Not saying he didn’t steal it but that episode came out way before he was on joe Rogans podcast. Is there any clips of him saying it earlier?

Love Theo but this isn't something to be salty about, this was a premise not a joke

One joke could be a coincidence, but sounds like multiple jokes have been lifted or "borrowed" from Theo. No surprise though, TV writers have been stealing jokes forever

lil dicky is the Dane Cook of rap

DB: I’m trying to remember the origin. Oh! We were talking about doing something with the kid, and talking about the kid and Elz bringing the kid to a Gucci store. Somehow someone said something about, “A little Swedish boy with a wooden shirt,” and we all laughed at that. And then when we were talking about the Gucci store, and someone said, “They should sell a wooden shirt.’” And then we didn’t hear back from Gucci Legal in time to do this Gucci store that would sell a wooden shirt.

It's not like theo was the only person to ever think of a wooden shirt

"aint nobody wearing a wooden shirt. You better shut the fuck up Theo Von.." -Joe Rogan 😂😂😂

Ever southern town had their own elvis impersonator

He could of at least gave Theo some credit or cast him as the guy selling the Wooden shirts, that would’ve been hilarious.

I didnt even know dicky had a show 😂 i thought he fizzled out like 5 years ago. Who tf still cares about dicky?

this AI Ludwig voice over is funny

People ideas usually come from somewhere, It’s not impossible for people to think up the same jokes.

Theo seems so angry nowadays man. Just straight up resentful, I feel like he’s ready to go at anybody at this point. He’s been the nice guy and especially perceived as one for too long especially for a loner who can take care of themselves as long as he has. Emancipated at 16 if I remember right.

So Theo the only person that knows about wooden shirts???

if i lived in america id steal every joke i can

Crazy to see Raising Canes as a sponsor for a podcast like this. I used to travel around the country opening raising canes and they would have never had a podcast with barstool sports. It used to be a VERY family oriented place.

Theo isnt that dude to make such a claim. Hes pissed i dont remember seeing him like this. And Theo is a 1 of 1. The way theos $#it hits you can tell if it came from his head. The dude taps into the warp bro. Normlike gift.

I definitely believe Theo.

They all started foaming from the mouth

I have "THOUGHTS ON THIS SITUATION!"

Cmon bro. Go the extra mile and compile all the clips or jokes that are observed to be “stolen”. You’re the show to do it. It’ll be epic and all other comfy channels will reference to it.

Was it a joke though? It was a story about a guy that gave his son a wooden shirt. Theo borrowed from a real-life scenario and then Dave borrowed the concept and wrote it into his show.
