This is a bad start if that's what style his comedy is. Nevermind the offensive part, it just shows someone who uses shock value as their entire bit. That's what people who don't actually have any comedic skill do. He pretty much walked the line in his comment to admitting he's not that good. SNL needs to step their casting process up.

Given SNLs history with Asian-Americans, Gillis is a perfect fit for the show and probably a candidate to replace Lorne Michaels some day.

Is TC one of them? Whats the point of deflecting away from this? This guy was outright using racial slurs. And this is the first time Ive seen this brought up while Dave has had numerous topics over him yet this is the one that stands out to you? Not a good look for you.

Lol okay dude. I have no problem calling this dude out for being a racist hack. Just think it's funny that there's such an overlap between people who said dumb shit when it came to even the mildest critique of Daves special and people who seem to be revelling in this to 'own the libs'.

Idk if this is supposed to be comedy. His delivery just makes it sound like a dry rant. Theres no setup, no twists, nothing. Just a series of complaints about Chinese people. <_<

That college girl who got in trouble for bitching about Chinese people in the cafeteria or laundromat or whatever was funnier. At least there her air-headed blonde accent made the racism unintentionally hilarious because of how dumb she was acting. This just sounds like that one low-key racist coworker who airs all his racist grievances to you when the minority coworker goes to the bathroom >_>

"Group of people really fucking suck" is a joke for people who laugh at fat people falling over, but want something more vulgar.

Even if you don't find it racist, good jokes have some kind of setup and punchline.

I thought we hated when liberals pass off angrily ranting about politics as comedy. Now angry rants are comedy?

Its literally just him ranting about Asians while using racial slurs. You think someone who uses negative black stereotypes and spouting N bombs would just be a joke? Pretty sure you dont.


Now you're beginning to see how this works.

When I first heard of all this, I thought "I'm sure it's completely overblown and it was all in good fun, just a stupid joke that wasn't meant to be taken seriously".

After actually watching the podcast in question, I now know he's a racist fuckhead.

Here's an example of a funny joke, not meant to be taken seriously and for some light comedy on a family TV show:

Saying racist, disgusting shit about Asian people with no punchline and using racial slurs casually on a podcast isn't comedy, it just shows how awful you are as a human being.

This story is amazing because it's the first time I've been a fan of someone before they got to SNL. The second I saw the headline that he would be going to SNL, I just knew it was a matter of time before some loser blogger combed through his past. The only thing Shane is guilty of is that he does comedy like it's pre-2010. The moment the "gay cartel" finds his old (and hilarious) podcasts, I knew it would be problematic.

I've known about Shane Gillis for over a year now and he's a very funny podcaster and comedian. He's not racist. He just says prevocative s*** for the laugh. He's a frequent guest on the Legion of Skanks podcast and they bill themselves "the most offensive podcast on Earth". He had his own podcasts (Matt & Shane) and appeared elsewhere too. He's always funny as ****.

I doubt you'll hear a headline that says that Michael Che is also in that same circle and is also a sometime guest of that show.

Also here's something to ponder:

Eddie Murphy is supposed to host SNL this season. What will people do when they find out he had comedy bits on his old specials called "F*ggots" and "F*ggots Revisited"?
