Kyle Kinane is a wildman poet. He has been laughing at anti-vaxxers for some time… To their baseless claim that vaccines cause autism, he responds, “Fucking good… We probably need more autistic kids. They’re the ones that keep beating robots at chess.” It’s this type of serious thinking about our collective future that makes his new stand-up special Shocks & Struts perfect for our current moment.
To him, dinosaurs were “God’s little tricksters”; a laparoscopic appendectomy is a “lappy appy”; and a foreskin is “the devil’s calamari.” Using his unique parlance, the beloved comedian transforms our dull world into an emporium of the weird and wonderful.
Kyle recently bought a van - a car that fits his look of someone “who should be at home plotting to kidnap a Democratic governor” - and hit the road to “Jehovah’s Witness [his] bits around the country.” This special showcases another night of hilarity from his travels and a return to a live-action stand-up special, his first since 2018’s Netflix The Standups.
With `his gruff voice, gentle heart, and ill-fated confidence around hotel buffets, Kyle delivers an hour of keen commentary and messy adventure. He wonders at how his pillows turned that color (?!), he explains the way to make everyone in a cruise ship hot tub immediately uncomfortable, and he marvels at pilots who aren’t intimidated by the hundreds of buttons in airplane cockpits, all of which should simply be labeled “Don’t Die!” Kyle Kinane is himself a skilled pilot of comedy. In fact, he’s like a comedy blue angel: darting and diving, taking big risks and pulling off tricks, giving us something to watch that thrills us and moves us too.

pay this man his moneys
Same kyle needs a good bump. he's worth it. ❤❤❤
That's why I'm here too!!
Same
Don’t forget about Shane Torres
Kyle "criminally underrated" Kinane.
He is definitely underrated.
Kyle Kinane is easily one of the best out there doing it, and has been for years. I remember being blown away at Whiskey Icarus and he hasn't let up since.
Amazing comedian but he’s way off on the vaccines. History will not agree with this special
The sun burn joke... i thought he was going to make it about cancer. Like scientist were wrong i never got cancer....
@@tomjones4835 He literally said hes a comedian and he's sharing his experience? History will show your children love Polio.
Whiskey Icarus was fantastic, from the name through the whole special, *chef's kiss*.
I totally avoided this dudes comedy for years without ever having heard it. Gave it a shot a couple weeks back and feel dumb for not doing so sooner. He's smart and funny AF
Kyle's management failed this man. He is a comic genius and should be a household name in comedy. "Yeah that kid who is going to overdose at an EDM concert." Just solid, solid gold!
Did they or did he make want he needed
@@scottykonovalov4518 Try that again.
Kyle is just so f'ing incredible. Every time I've ever seen him live he absolutely MURDERS. Great special
Kyle, you have been my favorite stand up comedian for 20 years. I love your material!
Shocks & Struts and Trampoline In a Ditch are my 2 favorite specials to come out in a very long time. Glad you got them up on your own channel!
Agreed, they are both bangers. I especially like the uncut version of S&S. Has some different takes of some jokes which is fun.
The sun burn joke... i thought he was going to make it about cancer. Like scientist were wrong i never got cancer.... The sad part is about trusting the science is that science isnt extact, like how many times was the speaker of health changing. When ppl knew from the begining that non3 of the precqutions were needed... as they play around in labs with theories. The worst thing about trusting goverm3nt scientist is that the scientist arent independent. Freedom is freedom. Be at peace with dying.
Severely underrated comic . He has always had solid sets and specials over the years
I can't believe I've never heard of this man. His momentum is unbelievable. I was laughing the whole time!
He was the voice of comedy central forever
Dude, do I envy you! Every one of his specials are great! Getting to listen to them the first time. *chef's kiss
Same here.
Kyle, you're objectively a top tier, goat level comedian. Been watching for almost 20 years now and you still deliver the goods.
I’ve watched this at least 4 times ❤ edit: at least 5 times now
Hands down one of the best storytellers and master of random thoughts that still end in an epic call back.

Will be watching this for many nights. He was right I was confused. But laughed throughout. Thanks for posting to KZhead. Will be rewatched endlessly.
Ky Pillow: A sponge that collects the memories of your nightmares
Amazing line! I haven't laughed that hard in ages. I love his wordplay.
I put his last special on while I was busy, accidentally sat for the whole hour while I had stuff today… Fantastic!
Can't wait for another drunk comedy night to watch this

After watching this special (twice), I burnt my mattress, bed laundry, and all the pillows I could find. That was a week ago, and the pillows are still burning.
my favorite comedian, the reason I'm a comedy fan. I am SO happy to see this.
So many times I have found myself in stiches, officially one of my favourite comedians of all time
A SOURDOUGH STARTER!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
Kyle I have been listening to you for years. Thank you
Thank you very much. ❤ 3rd time watching and still enjoying...
Kyle! Please come to Australia dude. You will find a demographic that will relate to your take on life. And we have affordable healthcare. 😂 love your shit man!
Saw him at Melbourne Comedy Festival last year. Hopefully he's back again in 2025
There aren't many constant stuff in this world, but there is always Kyle putting out great hours of stand up
the pilot gets paid very well, he doesn't need a pat on the back from me.
Always happy to see uncle BBQ in my recommended
i first watched this special after having surgery last year while i was still in the hospital. your "Lappy Appy" bit nearly popped a stitch! i had a laparoscopic cholecystectomy
You have to be careful watching comedy in a hospital. I saw Brian Regan live after surgery and he was literally ripping my stitches open
Kyle you rule. You and Standhope are the only guys I just leave on repeat in the background. I hope you're doing good and thanks a whole lot.
Was listening to this with earbuds on an early morning bus, proud to say I made the entire bus wake up & turn to look at me garving with laughter when the 'catch of the day' joke came along 😂
First time hearing Kyle Kinane. New fan here.
Love his bit on trucks trucks TRUCKS!! 😂😂
The most successful use of a creative writing degree ever lol🏆✨
Natural! Timing, humor, improvisation, this dude had it all!❤
Oregon’s most important export ❤❤❤❤
This man deserves all the likes
Big fan!
One of my all-time favorites to play over and over again.
When my plantar fasciitis makes me tip over while pissing in the morning, I think of Kyle Kinane.
4th time listening to the whole thing , still laughed the entire time. Thanks Kyle ✌️🤟🤘🖖
Thank you, Kyle! You are one of a handful of people that make me laugh, but truly belly laugh so hard it hurts!
You’re the best,Kyle! ❤
Realised I saw this recently, rewatched it anyway because it's so damn good!!!
One of the best around.
When a grizzled viking is cool as hell an angel gets its wings.
I love your craft brother. Always been one of my favorites, long live the kid!
Hilarious...top tier comedian, ❤❤❤❤❤
First off absolutely love his stand up, to the point I've watch this and his others multiple times. And this version is missing little parts.. sentences here and there. I understand why, but I like the full unedited Kyle. Going to watch fully and leave a like out of respect but I'll have to rewatch other versions later on.
"How can you not understand pronouns while driving a truck like that?!" Haha! So delicious.
You have to be one of the most prolific comics on the road right now. So much new material every release you do. Keep doing your thing. It's all super original and hilarious!
Love this guy. I need to see him live!!
Saw Kyle open for Patton Oswalt at the Tempe Improv. Fucking killed. I have been a big fan ever since and really enjoy his character from the One-Eyed Snakes biker gang on Bob's Burgers.
Always a pleasure.. 👏 👏
That was great! Thanks, Kyle!
Fuck yeah kyle back with another great standup special🤘🤘 hilarious as always dude
Outstanding performance. Bravo!
Kyle Kinane, the Pride of DuPage County, killing it again.
This special is top tier. I'll be sure to catch you next time you do a show in North Texas!
Found this this morning. Am now a mega fan.
been waiting for this one! one of the best comedians out there
Glad to watch again.
Dude, you're excellent.
I was able to see Kinane November 2019, my first comedy show! Been a fan of his for years!! The "dont look at your pillows" bit is so very, very true
Kyle Kinane is in NY top 3 of living comedians, up there with Patton Oswalt and David Cross. Last time I saw him live I hurt from laughing too hard nonstop
I’ve watched this a couple times already but it’s so damn good, know what? It’s going on again!! And good to see it on his channel.
One of the best to ever do it
One of the rare specials that’s even funnier the second time. ❤M
Kinane, thank goodness! I'm purposely watching this through utubé, on my Biig Screen. I learned I could all cos you!!
Oh my queef. Kyle you are so fucking hilarious. I used to love tom Segura, I saw him live on my anniversary, but you are so metal , so irreverent, so funny I literally laugh out loud at work . I love you to the bottom of my heart . You are now my favorite comedian ever. So thank you with ally heart
This special is comedy gold!! I've watched it atleast 10x and even though I know all the bits and setups it gets me differently everytime...especially about the pillow haha
Thank you so much for all the laughs, and for posting your specials for me to watch again and again! And also for being very cool to my son when he met you in OR. Made me like you even more.
Coming just to hit Like and comment for the algo. Love you KK; you’ve been an awesome comic for a helluva long time and you deserve your roses
Kyle, you're my favorite. You're the greatest. I want to be a stand up myself, and I love your comedy. I hope I can be half as good as you.
Awesome!! Thank you, sir. Very good stand-up. Thanks, Kyle, you made me laugh.
Always great, saw you years ago in Bellingham and you still kill it 🤘
Kyle's comedy gives lots to think about and, whoops, there he goes again... no time to think. Fuuuuny 😮😅😊
this one is exactly one second shorter than the youtube version. I demand to know what we are being denied, WHY THE CENSORSHIP HUH KYLE
Great stuff man funny as hell. Keep it up!
great set man, had me howling! glad my cousins introduced me to you, trying to spread the word!!
hell yes bro!!! so glad youre uploading your own material now!
Kinnane is Gold!
Killer special dude!
Flurry of chrome! Love ya Kyle and I can't wait for Dirt Nap
Regards from Poland Kyle. Im a fan. You should get more recognition.
Kyle 👑
Brilliant!
Kyle Kinane is always so funny!
Hallelujah!
Kyle really just has an appeal like nobody else. Can't think of a stand up I'd rather actually hang out with. Also, huge endorsement from this autistic dude for his joke about us. I've kinda said similar shit, he's not wrong.
I’ve tried to spread your “I’m as tired as a big dick bat” further into the lexicon as you hope. That is indeed a great contribution to modern society. Thankyou Kyle.
Saw you live in brick town OK, had to rewatch. you're a master of your craft sir. One of the Best out there!!
That was a blazing set, my god.
Love you kyle thanks for the laughs :)
This guy is fucking awesome! Best comic I've seen in a long while.
Damn I feel like Kyle is putting out a lot of stuff lately. That’s great
One of the funniest guys out there doing it.
Pure Gold
Best comedian in the game!
Pancakes on the plane is in the top 5 funniest bits of all time. Kyle is sooo hilarious.
I like this version. And also, all of them. It's nice to share a mental heart hug when you're laughing at laughing too hard enough to hear someone mention a little bit of pee pants and I suddenly love being alone with someone else but from a distance. Or some shit. Makes me think of the Good Saint Billy Madison.
