My favorite is the good old Ron Swanson joke, “The government in this town is excellent, and uses your tax dollars efficiently.”

[torchiest]

This is a channel that knows its target audience.

"Knock knock"
"Get a warrant"
--- I totally lost it there lol. The secret to humor is surprise, guys, and that right there got me.
:D

"How can you disappoint a Libertarian with only one Llepo?" That was brilliant!

[bspeers]

"well, neither does nation-building, but people keep trying it." lmao

[craftiebrown]

Are there any "conservative" or "liberal" YouTube channels or media outlets otherwise that will willingly poke fun at their target audience like this? I love Reason.

“I’m not sure that joke works”
“Neither does nation building, but people keep trying it”
I’m dead

The Gary Johnson joke at the end though xD

I love how Andrew Heaton starts out enthusiastic, and then you can see the realization on his face during the FIAT joke that this isn't going anywhere good...

[MRSketch]

"Police, we shot your dog, oops, wrong house"... oh man. That was funny.. but in a messed up way.
If I hadn't read so many stories over the years where police officers show up at the wrong property..
probably wouldn't have gotten that one.

[AusFirewing]

"Neither does nationbuilding but people keep trying it"

Okay, I got a laugh out of that.

[medarby]

"What is a lepo?"

"God Damnit!" *walks off set*

That was funny.

The police violence jokes in this have really stood the test of time.

[TheDoplarEffect]

I swear, Andrew Heaton is the best thing!!

[nicholasgergetz]

I'm glad Libertarians (including Gary Johnson himself) are able to maintain good humor when the media disparages them. It's necessary to be able to laugh some things off. So grateful for the dose of light-heartedness that we get from comedian types on Reason. It's healthy for you.

[arrowmandelta]

Wow. Face palmed so hard, not even universal care could cover the damages.

[CrimzinEclipse]

I love how Heston is really trying to be goofy and clever, while Bragg is just so brutal and dark.

[russellt.shackelford]

"Well there's lots of differences..." XD

1:10 "The Police!!! We shot your dog! SORRY WRONG HOUSE!!!"
