The Videogum "Louis C.K. Promise": Don't Play Games

thumbnail icon: The Videogum "Louis C.K. Promise": Don't Play Games

Promises are important, you guys. When you make a promise, you stick to it. Mostly that just means don't make stupid promises. We make very few promises at Videogum because we recognize that we spend most of our time disappointing people, why make it a contractual obligation to disappoint. But when we do make promises, as is the case with both the "Tracy Morgan Promise" and the "Louis C.K. Promise," promises to bring you the latest information and video footage of these two high caliber talents, those promises are set in stone. In blood. In stones covered in blood. The truest promise. And so it's always kind of a relief when we are able to simultaneously fulfill the promise and also bring you something that knocks it out of the park. The promise park. I need to shut up now.

Louis C.K. was on Conan last night and it is the eight funniest minutes of the day. Watch it. And then watch it some more. Watch this all day.

Louis C.K. for president of everything! Make sure to watch his acceptance speech (for president of everything), Chewed Up, on Showtime this Saturday, 11PM.

Is there a more consistently funny person anywhere on this green earth? I think not.

'Can you give it a minute to come back from space?'

Louis CK is clearly the..you know let's cut the crap and focus on the issue and how to solve it. This man made more funny in 5 minutes than Dane Cook has in his lifetime. This clip alone has made my week 10 times better. Louis CK should be an ambassador, be getting a permanent MacArthur genius grant instead of some experimental print artist, or at the very least this nation should cut him welfare/appreciation checks to be paid for by taxing the world's worst successful comedians. This country clearly can't be trusted and we need to bail out humor.

I love Louis' views on technology. Also, for those who don't know, The Sound of Young America has an awesome interview with Louis C.K. Check it at at maximumfun.org

LOL I way forwarded this vidlink...with advice to "scroll-down" to play a "conan YouTube clip", and thought foolishly that it was going to be the elustrious Governor-of-California as Conan the Barbarian in days-past ;) ...

I haven’t seen this comedian before but I will have to check out some of his shows, he is very funny. A lot of comedians use the same material and ideas but he was very original. Thanks for the clip.

I thought that was really good, though I doubt I can buy his stuff here in the UK.
Feel free to insult me for where I am from, as I think you deserve to considering the response you may often get from my fellow countrymen. All I can say is sorry, the net brings out the fascists. x
