1
I gotta say, I'm so excited to be here, although unfortunately, Just so you guys know,
2
in light of a recent trend of comedians being attacked on stage, I don't feel safe.
3
doing comedy in front of actual people, unless I can have my own personal security team with me.
4
So if you don't mind, before I start the show, I just want to introduce the team that will be protecting me to allow me to entertain you guys.
5
Okay?
6
So when they come out, I want you guys to give them a big round of applause.
7
First, We
8
have a black dragon trained in the Wudang style of sword fighting.
9
It's Fred!
10
Next up...
11
We found this guy in the Shaolin Temple.
12
He's a master of unarmed combat.
13
Please welcome Jason!
14
And last but certainly not least, all the way from the mean streets of Laval.
15
She just came out of prison.
16
We're very lucky to have you here tonight.
17
It's Mary!
18
Okay.
19
Feel safe already.
20
Looks like I'm ready to tell my first joke.
21
So the best thing about being in the movie Shang -Chi is I'm not.
22
I feel like Shang -Chi taught white and black people how to say another Chinese word other than Wu -Tang.
23
And they try too, you can see them trying, like they like the movie.
24
They're like, "Oh man, were you in that movie?
25
"Xuang Chi, Xuang Kai, Xuang...
26
"Xuang...
27
How do you say it?
28
"Xuang Kai." I'm like, "Don't worry about it.
29
Just say Wu -Tang.
30
It's fine." It's fine.
31
'Cause I get it, 'cause the intent is there, right?
32
They're trying to say, the word out of respect, but it's like Shang -Chi that's already the the wrong version of the word.
33
The actual word in Chinese is sang -chi.
34
That's too nuanced a Chinese word for non -native speakers, so I don't expect you to, you know.
35
It also doesn't help that like Chinese is one of the only languages where it sounds racist even when you're trying.
36
All right, no attack so far. So far, so good.
37
Now for my second joke.
38
Part of my job on The Daily Show is to go out into the world and fuck with people.
39
And, uh, all right.
40
And, uh, before the pandemic...
41
Yeah, I just want to tell you that joke premise have been done before.
42
What?
43
What do you...
44
What?
45
The premise has been done before?
46
It's been done.
47
What do you mean?
48
I don't know, I've heard the premise before.
49
Okay, yeah, but you haven't heard the joke yet, so...
50
So what do you mean?
51
I'm just calling it as I see it.
52
I'm just...
53
You know what?
54
Can you guys beat the fuck out of this guy?
55
Okay, anyone else?
56
Have anything to say?
57
Any comments? or suggestions?
58
No?
59
I thought so.
60
So anyway, part of my job on The Daily Show is to go out into the world,
61
and before the pandemic, they sent me to this white supremacist Richard Spencer.
62
And if you don't know Richard Spencer, Richard Spencer, he's...
63
He's kind of like the Martin Luther King of white supremacy.
64
All right, he's like He's like this charismatic figure he wears suits people like gravitate towards him, right?
65
And And they sent me to this guy and the problem with white supremacists in America in the 2020s besides the obvious.
66
is that they're not dumbasses wearing hoods anymore.
67
They're college educated.
68
They wear Taylor suits now.
69
And I realized watching Richard Spencer talk, he had this tendency, anytime anyone confronted him with being racist,
70
his go -to move would always be like, people will be like, "Oh, Richard, why are you racist, man?
71
You're just being racist." And Richard Spencer will be like, "No, no, it's not me.
72
It's not me.
73
I'm not racist.
74
I'm not racist, look.
75
Look at the average IQ.
76
of all the races.
77
He always had that in his pocket, ready to go.
78
A laminated, just like, look, look at the average IQ. of all the races.
79
Okay, it's not me.
80
It's science.
81
And so when he brought out the average IQ of races, I just said, Well, you know,
82
Mr. Supremus, according to your own data, in your own pocket.
83
Asian people have the highest average IQ of all the races.
84
Okay, so I'm not trying to tell you what to think. but it's science.
85
And white supremacist Richard Spencer said, "Yeah." I know.
86
That's why Asian people are the best.
87
So it turns out White supremacists in America think Asian people are the best.
88
And I'm not trying to defend white supremacy here.
89
But it's nice to be wanted, all right?
90
Finally.
91
someone is appreciating or bringing to the table in that country And if we're going to elect our first Asian president, I think we find our target demographic.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
