The Comedy Special Scam Nobody’s Talking About

In 2022 Andrew Schulz released his comedy special "Infamous" directly to his fans through his website. However, he soon released it free on YouTube after his fans had paid to watch it through his website.

This video explores how comedians are racing to offend people for free publicity and the fake cancellation narratives they try to push.

The pandemic created so many mid comics and podcasts to be very successful - correction pending

Akaash is the most unbearable person to listen to. He’s like that kid in school that kept poking you and laughing and thought it was hilarious

Andrew is someone who thinks he is wayyyy smarter than he actually is. That where he compared Netflix to YouTube is so bizzarely stupid that you really have to sit in awe of it. And he plays it completely straight and with confidence.

Also important to note, that Louis wasn't "cancelled" for anything he said in a comedy special.

I prefer watching videos pointing out and making fun of these dudes than watching any of their podcasts or specials

This comedy bubble can't pop fast enough.

Using FOMO to sell a comedy special and then burning your own audience by releasing it for free a month later is funnier than any joke Schulz has ever made.

"Punching down" isnt a term created by suits and producers. its literally from a George Carlin quote about why he didnt like Andrew Dice Clay. Carlin said Clay was a coward because if youre doing social commentary comedy, its easy to punch down at people with less agency in society and that a good comedian punches up at the systems. the whole thing is short hand for "Dont go after people, go after ideas and systems" how does Schulz not know this. its like the 4th most memorable thing Carlin ever said.

Ricky Gervais is worth hundreds of millions, has multiple mainstream shows, hosted the golden globes 5 times and won multiple awards. And people still think he’s some sort of maverick who operates outside the mainstream

[TalkingThrones]

Andrew is so brave... for a small fee...

[solomonrivers]

The pay-per-view experience he wants to create already exists…. it’s called a live show.

Ever notice how guys who smoke cigars are exactly the kind of people you avoid?

Jon Stewart said, "For a bunch of guys who keep saying that they're not allowed to say anything, they can't seem to be able to shut the F up about it".

The problem Shulz has is louie actually knew how to do a lot of the production himself from years of learning and shooting small films. Louie has the key ingredient, talent.

[acidqueen]

Im always at a loss at how Andrew Schulz fancies himself as such a edgy and innovative comedian when he's such a run of the mill, mainstream comedian

[drewmino]

I 100% believe Andrew lied about being forced to go “independent”….
His comments in the past about “all that matters is getting that bag” prove it.

[EMackills]

today i learned that andrew shulz is not brendan shaub. didnt know they were two "different" people

This channel is dope. I got really into the comedy industry during the pandemic and I’ve been wondering why these comedians I used to rock with have gotten more and more insufferable lately. Love this analysis
