Wee Disclaimer: I don’t write jokes, being dyslexic I don’t write much of anything. Just a key word, memory or idea and what comes out subsequently is a collection of analogies, trivia, history, stories, and facts that takes form through time spent speaking with people. For me this can be comedy. For you it might not, and that’s ok. Everyone finds comedy and truth in different things so if you don’t like it, like the last episodes of Game of Thrones let’s pretend it never happened. If you do please comment, like and share! If you make it to the end you’ll get a few surprises.
I made and funded this myself so I most definitely need your help and support if you think it might bring a few smiles and a wee bit of happiness please do share with a friend in need and I can keep it available for free. If you want to contribute you certainly can:

  • Thanks for watching! Wee Disclaimer: I don’t write jokes, being dyslexic I don’t write much of anything. Just a key word, memory or idea and what comes out subsequently is a collection of analogies, trivia, history, stories, and facts that takes form through time spent speaking with people. For me this can be comedy. For you it might not, and that’s fine. Everyone finds comedy and truth in different things so if you don’t like it, like the last episodes of Game of Thrones let’s pretend it never happened. If you do please comment, like and share! If you make it to the end you’ll get a few surprises. I made and funded this myself so I most definitely need your help and support if you think it might bring a few smiles and a wee bit of happiness to a friend in need. If I got lucky and managed to get this on Netflix the reality is it has less potential to reach a wider audience so if it’s worthy of doing so, I put it in you the viewers hands to make it so. Thanks a million for your support. It’s hugely appreciated 🙌. I'm on tour in the next few months so please come see a live show with all new thoughts and stories.

  • Saw David last night at the Vermont Comedy Club. Now I understand what it means when the Irish have a “Gift of the Gab”. He went on non-stop for over an hour then took questions afterwards. His stories were hilarious and almost unbelievable. But at the end of his skit he brought pictures as proof. My wife and I had ringside seats and neither of us remember ever laughing so hard. I believe he sells himself short. Ticket prices were cheap!

On several different occasions I've met Irish immigrants like, green card status and TWO of them said something to the effect of "You know how Ireland is beautiful because it's so green?....well thats because it never stops fucking raining!" and I died laughing.

  • My great grandfather was orphaned in Ireland when his parents died in a factory fire. He stowed away on a boat and became the cabin boy, sailed around the world several times, ended up in San Francisco. We would hear stories of him and his adventures growing up. I still have his sitting chair. We're very proud of our Irish ancestry and David here shows why; humor, wit, thoughtfulness, a bit of self depreciation and a lot of love. Thanks man, I found you on TikTok first, glad to see you hear, haven't laughed this long in forever. I'll be checking to see when you come to Seattle again.

That said, racism is an historical global phenomenon from which no country is exempt. That includes Ireland and my home nation of the United States. Let me clarify, in the two weeks during my visit to Ireland I was welcomed and treated well. I know people (live near them, have worked with them, been taught by them) who have treated me with respect but who I know embrace racist ideology and uphold racialized institutional structures. These dynamics are not mutually exclusive and coexist in human beings.

    • True & kinda true. He's in Utah, one of the most, if not thee most, Conservative state/s. LDS are very Conservative. Utahns are 1/2 devout LDS, 1/2 live by that LDS subculture. I'm from NY & moved to Utah abt 10 yrs ago. I went from hardcore Leftie to hardcore Right, brainwashed nutty kookoo ppl to factual, logical, common sense, informed ppl. If a Right-wing comedian is going anywhere, it's Utah, Wyoming, Montana or Idaho. All US cities are Leftie, but there's degrees of it. The South is considered very Republican/Conservative, not so much the cities. They're extremely Leftie. I've been down South many times. Salt Lake City is considered very Leftie to Utahns. To me, it's barely Leftie. Same with Billings, Boise & Cheyenne. In NY, I'm from Buffalo/Niagara Falls & Staten Island. I've been to Toronto many times & used to watch CBC living in WNY. You probably know abt my burb town in WNY. 💕

  • By far one of the best stand up shows I’ve seen in the last decade, at least. Such great comedy was only topped off by your great humanity. I am not religious, but God bless the Irish especially you and your wonderful family. You did not only make me laugh out loud, but you touched my heart. Thank you David, I wish you nothing less than utmost success.

  • David's storytelling reminds me a bit of Garrison Keillor's News From Lake Wobegon monologues (this is intended as a high compliment; YMMV). Dry, funny, woven together with sly cross references...truly artful while seeming artless, in the best tradition of storytelling. Well done, sir, well done.

  • 1970s Worked on construction ground work pick and shovel graft for Wimpey in UK , but it was a pleasure because of all the Irish guys, we never stopped laughing ,most of them were naturally funny not always consciously , the few pints we had on the way home led to more laughter .Hard work ,hard men good work mates . David's humour reminded me of them ,thanks.
