As a four wheeled human, I laughed my ass off
What i like about him is that he treats everybody equally He'll make fun of someone with a disability the same way as he would a normal person Because he VIEWS THEM as a normal, functioning HUMAN, and treats them as such. That's a better way to get respect than anything ive ever seen.
I watch this before and had to watch it again. But I watched a comedy show, a therapy session and a memorial all at once! I've never laughed and cried in such a short period of time!
God bless Steven Rife for such a funny grandson. Rest in peace and giant laughs from above. Matt your hilarious.
I wish my personality was 1/10 of what Matt’s is. This dude is so funny.
You can change it?
@@paulrivers7248 yeah, how? I’ve gone through so much turmoil in my life and been beaten by three Mexicans into 20 day coma, and I don’t feel I can learn anything new. I really can’t retain information anymore since I was 24 years old, before my brain was fully developed.
@@paulrivers7248 how??? no I can’t. You don’t know the tragedies I’ve been through in life. I was beaten down by three specs at the age of 24 before my brain is fully developed and now I can’t even obtain any new information. Yes, I remember what I already learned and I can still drive a Portrait Extremely well but to learn anything new is mind-boggling and that’s why I sued all these specs for $1.2 million and they will never be able to pay this and that’s fine but as long as I ask her them lives up for ever, because how dare them lay a hand on me when you didn’t even know anything about me. Fuck minorities. Papa, Papa.
@@J_Shawn_Paulbro try to better , good luck
Dude keep it up, everything happens for a reason.
Matt is the first MAN I have ever heard say the same thing I say about relationships and sex. Good to know there are people out there with the same morals.
I feel exactly like you! We do exist out there... But we aren't many... Unfortunately.
He already found her ❤
Not a doubt in my mind that he did.
Wit, Charisma, heartfelt, interactive; I'll keep my eye out for future specials from Matt. 💯
Trans portation Pure genius! .
Love you Matt! You're hilarious!
LMAO!!! I’m so glad I came across your video on KZhead you’re HILARIOUS!! ALSO I am living with Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis & every day I tell myself “things could always be worse” no matter how bad of a day I’m having as long as I’m still here having a day with my family & loved ones YES IT COULD ALWAYS BE WORSE!!! ❤
Sophia I know there’s nothing funny about your disease, but I’m glad you sound like you’re living your best life! Keep on laughing woman! ❤
I love your comedy because you are not really scared to see the things that matter you’re actually bringing people together and whoever hates you that’s their problem
I love Matt, amazing Special, can't wait for the next one!
Great set and, superb crowd work. Awesome special Matt!
Great show, Great ending. RIP Steve. xoxo
Masterpiece!
I love Matt Rife. He is such an hilarious and sweet guy
Such a Brilliant set for such a young man!
Looking forward to seeing more of this guy. Hilarious
My new favorite comic!! Will see you next time you are in southern Ohio brother.... What a great way to honor you grandpa!!
Crazy how the Matt Rife craze seems to have fizzled out. It’s surprising that this isn’t at 1 million views yet.
He released it a year ago on his own channel. It's not new, that's why low views.
@@er... ok, those numbers look way more accurate
@@tipofthefingercomedy5071 20 million vs 17 thousand, lol.
@@er... yeah 20 mil is what I would’ve expected to see, I wonder what the reason for re-releasing here was? I’m assuming it’s bc 800 pound gorilla filmed it, but I think usually when that’s the case, they release it on their platform.
@@tipofthefingercomedy5071 Wondering that myself, especially since most of these full specials are re-releases.
This guy has one hell of a future.
Had
@@josephlawson1382 What the fuck does that mean? Is he dead?
@@Al-rs2rrbro released a special a few months ago that had a lot of women super offended because of his jokes, and so I think his career took a bit of a dive afterwards
@@bryanelloco29 So his career tanked because he offended someone? I think that is horseshit. Comedians offend people all the time, especially successful ones.
well he still has a future because he's renewed his deal with Netflix so fuck cancel culture and their snowflake having asses
This special isn’t new , it’s re released
First 10 seconds he says "let's go" turned this crap off
Are you new? All the specials on this channel are re-releases.
@@er... I’m being serious rn when I say this is the first re release I’ve ever seen on this channel. Everything I’ve seen here has been new to me and I’ve not found anywhere else on KZhead…
@@TraceyIsNotMaryGrace Then you're not searching very hard.
@@TraceyIsNotMaryGrace Never wondered why some jokes are dated? Some of these are even from 2022. They're just difficult to find cuz they are little known comedians or they are posted elsewhere. This one is from last April, I think. Very few are exclusives.
Brilliant light to shine congratulations on family traditions to celebrate your grandfather ❤😅🎉
I liked him as the scarecrow. Very versatile.
Hehe
I thought scarecrow was Thomas shelby😅
I can’t wait to see him in August!!
Wow I went back to watch the last part…. I love this Kid
I'm not crying.. you're crying..
This dude is a genius ! ❤✌
Matt, you are brilliant!
😂😂😂😂 this guy here😂😂😂😂
Some higher up needs to see him. He’s as funny as any of the top comedians.
He don't need help. I just read he has a net worth of 35 million dollars and he's not even 30 years old.
Matt is amazing and awesome.. much love ❤️ 😍 💖
As being the resident cripple, I can attest, wheelchair jokes ARE funny 😂
Love him. I loved my grandma. I get the connection.
Good to see you out there with a new special man :)
This is from April 2023, not new.
Fun set man, had a week of loss and this was a laugh.
Hope you're doing better!
Hope you're doing better!
What kinda loss brother, I'm sorry.
That ending wow 😂
Friends of mine recently saw you in NY state, they loved the show! Glad to see comedy coming back for a good laugh about everything and anything! We need more people with courage, like you. Keep on Rocking!
Great material, great motivation. Thank you!!!
The friend zone 😂😂
Why everyone dissing him? Hes still funny as ever
Now I am ugly lol 😂❤
Shoulda said thats a transformer!😂
You should have thrown in more ads, I don't think that was enough
❤❤❤❤❤ much love
This is what his Netflix special should’ve been
Hilarious 🤣👍💜
This video made me 😭 so bad. It made me miss my dad so much.
1:05:25 my heart hurt for him listening to him talk about his grandfather ❤❤❤😢😢😢😢😢
Ojajebie. Nice one. 🤣😁
A true master goddamn son!
I grew up in southern Ohio. Couldn't wait to get out. Rarely ever go back This guy is hilarious 😂
I have to ask.... how's ASHley? R.I.P Matt's Grandpa Steven ❤
Matt and Ren should do a show together
Oh now I am ugly lol funny does everyone think that lol you crack me up I swear if you don’t knock it off lol❤
How did he not slam it on the wall at the end????????????
1:03:20 - although i don't like you sometimes, that sucks man. i know the feeling... i was also named after him, so was my dad. so i'm the third.... idk what to do in life, but you do, and you're succeeding so... be happy you got a chance to find something you like doing and he got to see you be successful at it cuz my papa never got to and it kills me every day...
They’re re releasing special like Sam Morril’s because my disorder is being triggered again and everyone is laughing at it again only conclusion I could come to
also around the 14:00 - 15:00 joke part of the story about the girl who has THAT "guy friend" - there is NO SUCH THING as a GUY BEST FRIEND once you're in a relationship. cuz as Matt's talking about the girlfriend going to "best friend male" complaining about the relationship - i know this for a fact due to an experiment i did after i got cheated on earlier in my life, that the pain drove me to want to KNOW what it was like to "be the guy that the girl cheats on with" as in "what's it like to BE the OTHER GUY." and its 10000000% easier to be the guy friend cuz as he states, yes, the girlfriend will quite literally tell you EVERYTHING he needs to "play the part" - even if its just as simple as "not being the boyfriend" as well as the arguing, now you know what NOT to fight about or topics to NOT bring up. and yes, unironically, guys CAN have a female friend even while he's in a relationship. now he CLAIMS its cuz she's "ugly" but that's not true. perhaps it woulda been better worded as "she's my best friend but i honestly don't find her attractive" internally. that's just me. a female now has to be just as beautiful inside as she is outside. see, my best friend in life, he's basically family, and his girlfriend is essentially my best female friend and she's NOT "ugly" by traditional standards, but to ME, she's legit just a bro to me, an extension of HIM and HIS friendship; i will NEVER view her as a female, beyond the fact she's the MOTHER of his son, HIS woman, HIS love, etc so on and so forth; but to me she's just the "female" broski in my life. we get along talking bout coding/computer stuff and he trusts me to come over to their house while she's there cuz he KNOWS that i would NEVER EVER IN A MILLION YEARS EVEN THINK OF HERTHAT WAY OR EVEN TRY - EVEN IF SHE tried to put the moves on ME, i'd instantly shut it down no matter the situation. for one, i prefer his friendship/being my one and only brother than getting a hook up with a woman who is the mother of my godchildren, woman of my brother from another mother. idk how else to explain it, besides there's NO sexual attraction, NO physical attraction, just brother-sister, since she's a female dating my best friend who in my eyes and my parents' eyes is a brother/family, by extension she's also family, as well as his two lil boys. and they know that. my gf knows it and she's fine and understands cuz shes a traditional old school woman from the Philippines and knows I would NEVER do that to her, much less with that female... honestly, it would feel like being with a dude... cuz thats how my mind feels bout her, she's a female dude if that makes sense, she's "one of the bros" in my heart. cuz i do got "love" for her only for the simple fact that he loves her truly and has a family with her; i have NOT seen him this happy since i've met him decades ago. i'm so happy for him cuz he truly deserves it... he's had such a hard life and if she makes it easier and makes him happier then i'll do anything/everything to help keep them together and work out anything. just like whenever they'd argue and he'd run off into the night saying he "might not come back" aka self-delete, she'd call ME in the middle of the night , balling her eyes out saying PLS CALL HIM / PLS GO FIND HIM, and i wouldn't hesitate; that's my brother... lastly, when it comes to female friends, IF she EVER oversteps the boundaries and disrespects my woman and what me and and my woman have together then i'm going to be obligated to say something harsh enough to get her to properly fk off and NEVER talk to me that way again and if she survives that and stays in her lane, then she MIGHT be able to continue being my friend IF my woman decides it. depending on how far it goes will depend on the severity. other times it might simply just be a block and done. going back to women though, that guy trying to be your "best friend" or "like a brother" - nah, he's trying EVERYTHING IN THE BOOK to try to get in your pants. period. full stop. end of. cuz what i learned from my 3 year "experiment" - it's infinitely more easy to get laid by a taken girl than having a 1 night stand with a single girl. i could NOT tell you the science/math behind it... but major part of it has to be simply because i'm not her bf, and she's bored with it, along with the fact im doing all the things he's NOT doing that she's whined bout him NOT doing on top of DOING the things she WANTS from him but he's NOT DOING, so i'd do that; it would literally be "do what she's crying he doesn't do, and don't do the thing she's crying bout him not doing" and obviously bring the heat. so yeah... it's EXTREMELY different between men n women
Do not defeat the porpoise
I like him. And I like that he rizzes all the ladies and doesn’t make people feel bad
lmao sounds like someone hasn't heard his views on women.
Hope it's better than Netflix one
This Really Is Fr 💯💯
It was! Pretty good throughout
👏👏👏👏👏👏
❤😊
When I was a kid I lived in a part of town known as dizzy block I noticed cars would blink there lights at you even as a kid 10 12 years old and that was asking you to come over ..I was followed a few blocks car kept going around till I hid beside a house then waited till I didn't see then ran to my uncles....the being aggressively asked to get in a van to show them how to get to the waterfront that you could literally see It .i pointed at it there he just wanted me in that vehicle...so I'm couscous around peaple
When did this come out? I swear I’ve seen this hour before
April 2023, I think. It's old.
yeh its over a year old
2:55 idk if this is just part of the joke or not, about your grandpa being alone for 15 yrs - living alone and what not.... lucky you, being able to go visit him and stay with him... my papa passed away over 2 yrs ago just 2 weeks before christmas. he was my hero and it has NOT been the same sense..... not at all. haven't even begun to accept that he's gone... its not fair. it feels like he's not gone but he is... i'd give anything to have him call me up and argue over something silly. that's how much i miss him being alive... it sucks to much. instead its my gma who is living semi-alone, she has a nurse that stays during the day for the most part, and she refuses to get hearing aids and all she's known is life with my papa. she did work at the old library once upon a time, before they built the knew one she had retired and just lived the stay-at-home-wife life. mother of 3 children, my dad's the first born/oldest, then my uncle, and then my aunt. i'll never forget the day i heard my oldman come home, i could just TELL by the way he entered the house, the way he opened and closed thee door and his walk was so different.... i could just tell. further more, i feel like my uncles ole lady might've intentionally poisoned him from his medicine (he was giving liquid morphine to have in his IV drip bag in his hospice bed at home) and she is a nurse so she would know how to make it look like it was just the cancer. i fully understand he's been fighting cancer for years upon years if not decades. i remember visiting him a few times during his home-made hospital bed that they put in the living room at his house since my gma stayed in the living room with him... and he was fine until one day, SOMETHING BIG had changed... he could NOT keep a train of thought, he looked genuinely "high" like if someone who has never done pain killer pills or went skiing on heroin hills... if you follow me. he couldn't recognize me, could barely speak, could barely move and ppl tried to tell me it just was the cancer spreading and to this day i refuse to believe it cuz one day he was 100% PEFECTLY "fine" in terms of having cancer/being in a hospice bed at home... he was at least capable of talking on the phone and carrying on a conversation in person. knew who i was and all. then the very next time i saw him (either the VERY NEXT DAY or DAY AFTER) he started to look like i described, someone OD'ing from too much morphine in his medicine drip... and uncle's ole lady was there during that time. usually it was my dad who stayed with my papa, even before it came time for hospice, he was expected to help papa and gma while my uncle and aunt didn't chip in anything at all and it caused a LOT of rift between my dad and uncle. but more so betweenmy dad and our family and my uncles ole lady. cuz i swear and i've even brought up my concerns that i think she intentionally OD'd im but even though my dad HATES her, he said 'no it was the cancer' - and i just... can't accept it.
You need Therapy....
@@m.l.5799 oooo lets play this game. list reasons why gogo go
Wonder if he will see these comments seeing as its not his channel im a big fan of his ghost hunting with overnight
Now that's how you do a stand-up comedy show who went deep with your stories and then moved on. Brought them back throughout other stories. Good stuff
54:02
weird, i've his his "work out ONLY with black dudes" joke before in another stand up that's been uploaded.... i guess he was using it again as filly here in this filmed set. even though he's used it before in that "special" where he used it instead of doing ANY crowd work, cuz everyone claimed he could ONLY do crowd work.
12:03
Any Desis catching "kya hua" at 16:51 ?! dangggg we indians know the game
Kicking off the special thirsting for gay dudes kinda explains why he was hating on all the Lady fans that brought him to stardom.
oh get over yourself. He's the best comedian to have come around in a long time. It's called comedy. Woke people don't get it
@@Jukka70 Bruh, understanding that there's injustice in the world and finding things funny are not mutually exclusive. I'm a huge fan of stand up and not All I follow are super woke. Honestly few of them are and they even make a few jokes about woke topics. The difference is that they actually make a funny observation to get a laugh instead of anti cancel culture statements to get applause. I earnestly watched this special but found myself laughing at only a couple jokes here and there. If you sincerely think he's the best comedian in a long time then you obviously don't watch much stand up besides the commercially successful ones which are by design the tamest and most palatable to be marketed to the masses.
And yet he's highly successful, and does great crowdwork. I've seen plenty, and usually shut others off because they flop. And I love that he's unapologetic, basically telling the woke where they can go
there is always someone that has to voice their inner hate, for what ever reason.. regardless of what he says he fills seats and gets views and he is stacking money… his crowd is full of woman and they are lining up and the husbands are voicing the hall pass with this guy… amazing
Ahhh yes, full of _woman_
dawg ur mad incel
Man I was so excited thinking finally something new 😭
God he's so cool
I like him. He makes me laugh... This is a re run.
❤ Love me some Matt ❤
love the truth💗🙌🏽
I've been that friend...my ex had one of those friends too...guess what happened
Matt rife is really cute tho. He’s unstoppable. Yall can’t cancel him. The whole domestic violence joke wasn’t even serious during his Netflix show natural selection
It was the only good joke in the whole special
This should’ve been the Netflix special. The Netflix special was so ass
@@TraceyIsNotMaryGrace yer right, I was so excited, and then soooo disappointed. His strength is the instant hilariousness he delivers on the spot when he plays the crowd.
❤🎉😅
As much as I love his comedy and quick comebacks I really do wish the man was English v Because these jokes would have been a lot darker
That girls relationship is over after calling him out and showing his pic
they all laugh about the friend zone but when he starts on the real deal, they all started laughing side way's and quiet knowing he was telling the s*$^T's ! **How to you think I got you stupid** is the best line !!!! They have no idea... come on girls, wake up jajajajaja god bless your grand-pa, love ya
So many negative comments do you think he gives a shit he's a comedian of course some people will find his content negative look at Dave chapel they tried to cancel him to he's still going some people need to HTFU 😂
🙌🤍
😅😅😅😅
He is, in fact, not your friend
If she doesn’t like anime. 🚩
Does he also joke about beating women in this one too?
If we're lucky
That was the ONLY good joke in that whole special. It was soooo freaking bad.. He's like a horny teenager who's mom told him backstage he looks handsome
@@SetiSupreme I think he was just trying to prove to all the other male comedians that he didn’t just get big because girls like him and failed
@@SetiSupreme I’ll bet he didn’t even come up with that joke on his own
😮1
Information is key... TRT (testosterone replacement therapy) IS indeed steroids... BUT it's legal steroids. I know someone going through the same thing. Needed testosterone, because he had never finished puberty as a teen, and needed to. It's not a "bad thing" and shouldn't be looked down on, or taboo. Lots of us need depression meds to replace serotonin, or anxiety meds to take down the excess adrenaline if we're over stimulated... that doesn't mean that we're doing something "wrong". Hope the right person sees this, and needed that info. ❤❤
Also... if we get a rash, or have an allergic reaction, what do you think they use to treat it? Either a steroid cream, or shot. Testosterone is "the healing" hormone. Even females are given steroids to help with illness. Anyone ever see a chubby girl and someone says "she's on steroids"? That's because if you're given steroids long term and don't work out or do anything with it, it'll eventually turn to fat. Especially in women.
Matt looks like carrot top if he had that hair!
He def gives a little bit of gay/bi vibes, especially when talking about sex with his ex
Great comedian. Finally someone that takes it where it should be. Tired of sensitive and ppl who have to watch every little damn thing they say or do. I wish we could go back to last century when ppl had a backbone and could handle life. Oh and let’s get rid of the damn pronouns- literally WTF⁉️ MSR don’t worry about the nay sayers. Who gives a damn who gets hurt YOU are a great comedian. If ppl can’t laugh at themselves then they are at the wrong event 💯
He's not gonna date you ugmo
Fuck yeah. Why stop at last century. I want to take it back two centuries to when woman couldn't vote or three sentries to when black people weren't people. I'm tired of the fact my black mom has so many rights just because everyone had to get so woke
