all the health risk all the dangers out to the american public those are stories that we tell every week and you know what they're working. folks next up on dennis miller plus one comedian russell peters ellis when i 1st started doing stand up you were doing local clubs and skies now performed over $300.00 shows in 30 countries around this planet he's the 1st one to do a netflix special when i go back and they start analyzing this period of american comedic history this guy's going to have a couple big signposts the 1st guy to do netflix the 1st guy to take it global russell peters right after that son dennis miller plus one. they folks welcome to dennis miller plus one and we're joined by comedian russell peters to the show today he's

a canadian commute in got his start at the comedy clubs in toronto and in 2013 he became the 1st the maiden voyage that's quite a thing to talk about since netflix is now the loadstone of stand up comedy like h.b.o. used to be he was there 1st with his notorious special and russell currently has a podcast called culturally cancelled although he's anything but anybody who can do 30 countries across this world doing stand up but anyway you can look for culturally cancelled where you get your pod cast russell peter sorry micra who are you dennis it's good to see you nice to see you you know i'm a member of the fact that stand up has turned into a. if boggles my mind we used to do it in a little clubs in our city and then it would branch out to the city then the northeast corridor of our. country i'd better able to defer to countries brussels

mind that day i mean the great thing for guys like well for me i'm especially you before you were you did s. and i was sure you started in pittsburgh and then were here way out of pittsburgh a night same thing for me and i started in toronto and then you started doing surrounding cities you know if you just keep expanding well listen tronto feels like the un compared pittsburgh i love my hometown but that was like the tiny bottle city of kandahar at super met we never thought we were going to get it the arts but you're onto at least as a bit of a collective meeting place for the world so you had a little more savoir faire about it but when you go to these other countries russell. explain the process to me i remember billy did one in moscow years ago and they just invited american speaking people who comes not people who watch on the internet i write yeah it's little when i go to other countries because i have comics come up to me like i'm the guy did saudi arabia meets you waited the base which one did you do i go no i did saudi arabia i didn't do the base i did the with

arab people i did the saudis i was in the middle of the desert because they didn't they didn't want the religious police to show up at the show so they how that literally in the middle of the desert it built the whole tent and then the men were on this side and women on this i was a big guy with the middle so it was interesting you know so when i go to other countries people like us those who are like no no actually you are it's real real people doing. yeah that's what i what somebody say i was that did the burj khalifa lounge and stuff like that you think i did zain essentia kaga what the hell were hell's all this coming from now when you go there you must be they take their taboos seriously even in a secular muslim country where there are things clearly delineated before you go on stage about what you should the 3rd rails that you should avoid i mean you know when you're in any kind of kingdom you don't mention the royal family at all. not even in a complimentary manner don't mention them you just don't because because somebody

will misconstrue the tone or the look or whatever so you don't even bring it up so that number one is that and in a muslim country don't mention islam that's it. it's basically it will yeah and this sometimes when i was in saudi to go when i was in saudi arabia they were just like the one of the princes brought me down and he was like hey can you not do too much sex. i'm not telling you not to do any but please and i'm like i got it don't worry. because you know nobody nobody really expects the world that's why we're. there is sex in the visible world over there then you get on the other side of the free door. their own you know he's a terrorist it's like everybody. behind the green door it's the real deal. but tell me about you being this is and just break down 3 of the ones that i'd find

interesting or 2 whatever you want to i'm just intrigued to talk about saudi arabia it's obvious some of these other places you have on your had comedically what's fascinating but i love this is a. well so lebanon was really cool beirut so the interesting thing about beirut and lebanon is that. so when you go to places like dubai the u.a.e. or saudi arabia or. or kuwait or oman those countries are arab countries but they have a mix of people because they have a lot of workers going in from the philippines or dandiya and negate people from around the world come in and work but lebannon is just lebanese people but they somehow loves me because i did jokes about arabs or whatever and so i still have this bitter 5000 seats and i'm trying to talk about you know i talk about everybody so the peanut was waxed why this bad the other they didn't get it because they briley they're so homogenized that they're like what are you talking there and who

are these other people just talk about us we just want to hear about us we don't hear about the other and so i do an hour and a bit. parable i walked offstage to go and they all clapped and when i get on stage like it was a look was good we loved it so much and i go why didn't you tell yourself that like i mean it was so funny when you did the indian people it was good and i'm like you don't react to it. but it's kind of. this is nothing in sound we need to go to it. you know danny thomas never performed and fuck that from the lebanese people that at one point in his life that's that's a rare glimpse what about anything over on the european garden or scandinavia what are there either candidate and a do or type of people who are they like a lot yes. i did croatia i did croatia lithuania and. there was another one that you made me go wow that's so i think my start with

a now is when you look at my phone they'll tell you what it was like this man i have a couple here right we are. latvia was latvia it was libya so i did with him when he latvia and croatia now these places are full of lithuanians latvians and prohibitions and i'm like how do you know about me and it's like you know for 5000 people in these venue and they're and they're into it and what do you know about me you know by the internet and i'm like how do you know the latest you know it like it was already so that one time i opened the letter of the reason i did latvia because i was doing an interview much like this and then somebody goes is there is there anything like. people get mad at you about after you shows and i'm like well yes some people get mad that i didn't talk about them and i very flippantly said that some guy gives a recipe to do any latvian jokes and i don't like oh yeah i did know you were here i would have 20 minutes on when i said that surpass the cleats and they were like

yes 20 minutes on a regular day i mean all of this meant. i had nothing but nothing. you know their minds me of the great old lenny bruce story russell where he said let it got to the point where it is you know sometimes when somebody's so successful they begin to find their audience precious and they begin to take them when he swore such dubbo taze that it came out of the village gate one night and they were so forbidding that he said you know i could come out here at this point and just pull it out and he said in the front row i could do that for 2 weeks and there'd be a line around the block then and the beginning of the 3rd week i'd come out and i wouldn't do it and everybody would complain that lenny i want to see lenny last night he didn't. but it's. getting. now listen i got to tell you that's a seminal moment in the 1st netflix not sure you must be proud of that green house

like crash davis and gold or i'm worried doesn't talk about the homerun record at that much but to be the 1st one that's very cool isn't it yeah but at the time you didn't know like you did you listen when they approached me in 2012 about it i was like yeah i'd love to work with you guys because they'd already bought my older specials i'm wearing the we're getting great numbers on these you want to want to do a special with you and i was sure and i'd be great if you want me to sell it so you know what no no we're going to do it and we're going to give you this much and we're going to do like a documentary thing back following you and this and this and that is like ok great and then i go through and and then what do i can i sell the d.v.d.'s that like what no you can't so that you can ease and i go what i mean i mean you're going to hear it i go can i at least just the d.v.d. that my show and i was really fixated on d.v.d.'s at a time in 2012 when now nobody even knows where he is anymore but at the time of them you know what about we're going to miss out on these d v d's. because at the time netflix was in the us canada and norway and they

were about to expand to us truly. now they've obviously dominated the world but at the time they were just in these very random countries and so i couldn't comprehend i was like well that's going to be nobody's going to see the special no no he's going to know about net but. it was iran in there. you know what you were good the trustor bunyan on those d.v.d.'s of that because you memorized me at cosco you'd hear that backups beep beep beep they come out with a forklift loaded with 3 pallets of tom hanks is cast away i said at the time i said brother they're selling these things like beyond a lot cakes idea of a piece of this is that they don't open the d.v.d. books up to anybody mad so that was a good good instinct the urge to want to get a taste of that because they printed money you know him mad man now now because i couldn't do it is what you give somebody david you know we're going to do this so we give you my take on michael i'm going to do with it i'm going to be like. you've

got to. it's like asking your kid if you can borrow pen my kid to look at me like. what what what am i doing doing sanskriti here with the stylus no i don't have a head put it on your phone for god's sakes we're talking to russell peters like i said he's one of he has a. crossed this planet's 300 shows him 30 different countries that absolutely boggles my mind when we come back on the other side we're going to talk to him about culturally cancel just podcast so what that's about i also want to pick his brain about russell peters christmas where i i see john love but in the know any time i see love it's a hot lead i have to pull on that thread will clark russell right after this also growing up in indian lad in toronto is there such a thing as a killer curry cuttin well ask russell peters right up to the sun dennis miller

plus one. you guys i made a professional is power point show you how artsy america it's good for the greater media landscape our tears and laughter all right we are a solid alternative to the we don't see you liberal or conservative and as you can see that is margret we don't skew the facts either talking at length these talking at righties oh there you go above it is a look at world r.t. america is in the spotlight now frankly i have no idea how to classify it as what actually took me way more time and i cared women. are so much going on in the don't you think the last time you had a real currency you. should be more than just. give me 30 minutes i'll take you off the lower leg.

how to read out read i turn on the t.v. on the back the world of what's happened in the around me i see shows on the screens in last every day because the big news near it sits at a state things seem to maybe cooling it's just really good enough business with mom after blog brick by brick school is the make you smile how flip me off thing in the store but i found it networked an open question sorry he's great was that space civil strife climate change sample was cool simply lists all the mainstream wants to do was keep was like you watch the right you can't keep a silenced critical point see this whole perspective question it's sad to read we don't take sides we walk the walk artsy america means real talk.

and folks welcome back to dennis miller plus one more joined by comedian extraordinary russell peters russell canadian comedian who got his start at the comedy clubs in toronto as brad stop the world is his oyster he became the 1st comedian to do a netflix special and they currently has a podcast called culturally cancel a vailable where you get your podcast break the pod down from 8 our pate. well. you know we're living in a time where but he stared what they're saying out in public and as i'm sure you in

private with your friends and much like myself when i'm with my friends i always say to them i go could you imagine if somebody could hear a conversation right now we would be canceled so i basically have those same types of conversations in my backyard with my friends we smoke a cigar we have some drinks and we just talk it's free talk and there's no amounts involved and we're talking about anybody so i mean if you want to cancel us for being real people and talking about real things and that's on you that's not on us and the people who want to cancel you are never your fans they're never people that were in your corner to begin with so what is your sudden beef with us on this and so i want to get back to the times when freedom of speech was free but you know russell it's odd because it's counterintuitive but one has to go back and. think george orwell was no strict dahmus he always thought it would be the global left to some degree and indeed 30 years ago aren't with f.

open mind of this which is always preached over there and now comes with a very close minded kept me out. of it is it's very confusing but i don't think they see it or if they do see it that's even more frightening to me because they see it and choose not to do anything about it which seems malevolent as a part of i suppose the misguided why is this whole notion that. you know we need to be more tolerant upon being more tolerant well if i'm telling you to be taller than i have to be tolerant of your installer it's just that's the way that works. you can't preach tolerance and not be tolerance. listen we've got mission creep over there and when it reaches the host of the bachelorette i would say we're somewhere near the pillars of hercules a spark distract the wretched down any active discussion it's a it's

a very odd time and i've never actually physically met a cancel person i don't know if you have but never met them i think you see them online but you don't actually see a face and i think they're bots i think the russians do it. but i do feel their plight sometimes people say things that if you're going to be in the public eye i get it there's you owe it to yourself to be smart enough to not compromise your rice ball with somebody sick i see other people who have just done what anybody else does on any given day in many aspects of their life which is a little more rough and tumble than shot through the p.c. prison and they're over as far as a wager that that is a frightening promise to make it's a very weird and you know i'm starting to realize that this all is a p.c. culture isn't coming from the out it's come from the inside because when i'm on the phone with networks or agencies or whatever they're the ones telling you what you

can and cannot say it's not outside so the fact that the industry is actually doing this to us is scary because that's our industry and they're the ones the whole game . well listen here obi wan kenobi was a great georgian of carlon you go back and look at is stuff it reads like an a.p. story for god's sake see a stranglehold on this 25 years ago you know he was he was also enough to damas is what. he should or could you pass out merge with. the jakarta spat russell i did i got lucky enough to was the 1st time i met him was in toronto in 92 when the blue jays had won the world series. one throw that at you and like and that heavy i heard everybody rapping. tell that till joe carter billy masse and then they all walk off homer to win game 7 i think carter was game sticks

but it rankled me a little but i'm happy for it so i was 22 years old that was walking up and down young street everybody was partying and i was a smart kid i'd only been doing stand up for 3 years at that time and this old white guy with a beard was walking towards me on the street and to be a smile on my front of his coat would suggest carlin i just thought it was some homeless guy and he walked past me go hey to george's and then and i'm and i ran after him and i walked him back to his hotel and dust the whole way and completely fanboy it out and i said he maybe one day we'll work together because you never know kid crazy but one day might we might work on them. and then in 2007 the dozen or 2008 he passed in 2008 right so 10 months before he passed he had just had a quadruple bypass and he was he was getting ready to get back up on stage and

start working on his new set for his new special and he was going to go to the comedy magic level or most of beats and richard called me and asked me because he knew i was a huge current guy as you want to be on the shows and i said yeah but i want to host a mini so where he got it was like oh can you move that host make of features on because i want to be the guy to introduce them so he let me do that night i got emotional when i introduced my chin started quivering and i was cried. i do something to correct that room than that when he like you when he 1st knew me i saw him in an aspen at that festival you look across your own life and it is like as i go we want canobie us to withstand on a cross for me and he was just cool that's the thing about georgie was cool before cool well right after miles davis george was next in the door to be cool i think you know you go to the stance of for guys like me even talking to you right now is kind of the trip because i watched you i rented your v.h.s.

is from the video store you specials and the back of it there and i would watch you on weekend update and my 1st deal you may not know this is my very 1st deal in hollywood was with your brother. it was with warner well who are. now oh yeah the writer in them are you going to have similar rhythms that you know we do look different because my brother is lex luthor and i still got the you know what you patrick from the months are saying but by my brother i remember michael douglas called the ones from the venice film festival he said some walk around all day with this book. how are my shoulders is yappin a way of thinking how do i know that rhythm. that i say are you that it's not but it's brother he says yeah so i think whenever i talk to people about like brother they always say 2 things they say god you guys have similar rhythms and he has that no b.s. that from pittsburgh i always admired my brother on that that he's a no b.s.

guy yeah i am as well as well i appreciate what i appreciated about him he was actually going to put the whole thing together for me one of my dearest friends is love it's i see him trip i've never seen russell peters christmas and how does love it started out to that he's not the the it a shanty is he would tell me about love it's as a parents and that's when i called him and he said all right would you have to pay me a lot of money. when i call when we talk to each other i just talk like him the whole going to go hello john. that's perfect. where you've been i have a $1000000.00 a year. i had i had love it's time scott thompson in-phase unlovely the 3 wise men and i had pamela anderson play the virgin mary. thank you maybe is freedom.

but now this this i have to stream later tonight that's absolutely. cult john certainly one of the more idiosyncratic senses of yoga or encountered in my life i love get going it will. be so awesome. he's a guy that is i don't question the. you're kidding me i know you do a lot of dialects i didn't know what it dipped into impressions and stuff like that who else could you knock off with a degree of a plumber i mean i just family guy. and almost at the o'jays what was its weight good way to get. you know who was the chemist like. peter now he's just talking i want to. when you 1st find yet in iraq when you said you were young and flippant a bit of a smile was that your trick unschooled of the deuce in a different voice is it out yeah i used to i used to really use lebanese at clubs

to pick up chicks they were like so you want to go out with me. and they would think i was malaria sniggered i didn't want to say no. lovett's did not use love it's the clubs to pick up the chips. will love it's couldn't use one. here during the day that's dr money to give it. how i have to make sure it does not miss this episode we're talking to russell peters who does a killer robertson davies if you ever run into him at a cocktail party it up like that and he is a canadian comedian who now well he can perform anywhere in the world it would seem he has a podcast style called culturally cancelled and when he said he'd sit around with cronies in the backyard literally that's not a figurative way of speaking sat in the backyard right would you do it.

yeah they love to come on i just want to see dos we'd have to work out the logistics i mean come into town in a long time since the andromeda strain hit but i'll come down do it yeah sure you know it's not too bad and so you know from now see how beautiful it's a bedroom community of sherman oaks folks for those of the uninitiated i would work with human heart beat you kidding me you you're one of the guys that shaped me as well you made me realize that i couldn't do it when i would just say are you wearing that is i mean really that means listen to me because europe now and you were your command of english language and your broader knack you were always made to go well i'm never going to be able to do that so watch him and see what not to do because you're not going to be that guy you can i can i watch you you would always have your you or your point of view and it would always be well researched

and well and well back for town or for counterpunches and everything it was like watching a really good light or so because i used to box it was like watching a guy who was like study to you and when he was going to have an argument or debate with you he knew what you were going to come with and he had some of the board every time. well we can all do what we can do because i just played latvian brother and we had to go to group on we got 3 guys and not yucks showing up so everybody's got their strength by the way hardest punch ever is a boxer i got to go with bobby fluster cut my corrie that left still absolutely haunts me have you seen it lately bob foster the light heavyweight. that go back and watch bob foster here in the jerry corey jerry and mike correa fight bob foster and mohammed ali on a double cardon vibe world of sports the 1st fight is foster versus jerry's younger brother mike just watch the punch next time we talk you look at me that's the

hardest a human being can hit another yeoman. i was like jack johnson versus tommy burns when the earth was a middleweight who banged really hard and it was an exhibition about nehru michael raper just going to touch each other and and birdies on opening in him jack and knocked him down in jack and so mad and when jack got up he had tommy so hard that he knocked all of his teeth out of me were embedded in johnson's clothes so if you get a swift little it was you have you see him it's him so hard that tommy goes down he's out cold and i was d. the gone from the roof and when johnson hits was already falls down too but he gets up you see him look at his glow and dust off the teeth. i'm going on e bay and buy in that glove later after the show all right i pick that to talk to wrestle peter's next time we'll meet our friend tanya's place i'd love to break bread with a you're good cat has once again the pot let's go in there folks culturally cancel
