I thought it would be great if I could tell an old story

that was from years ago that never made it to a one -hour special.

And the cool part about this story is that it now has a different ending.

The story is called The Gift Basket.

Yeah!

Some of you know it, some of you don't know it, but after this, you're never gonna forget it.

All you have to know about this story is

that all the people involved have always been and will continue to be friends.

That being said, Martin and I...

All the good ones start like that.

Martin and I, are scheduled to perform in Northern California.

Usually we fly, but this particular day, I was having a problem with Southwest Airlines.

They wanted me to pay for an extra seat for someone who wasn't traveling with me.

Take your time, you'll figure it out.

Anyway, I tell Martina, I'm not paying for an extra seat.

Let's just drive.

It's six hours. So we headed north.

Three hours into the drive, we're passing through a city called fresno and as we're passing hey fresno 559 anyway

as we're passing through fresno we start seeing billboards off the side of the freeway that said

performing this weekend at the radisson hotel directly from bet's comic view

and showtime at the apollo comedian g riley

and i look at martin i go oh shoot g's in town

and martin goes yeah i haven't seen g in years

so we're like let's stop by the hotel and say hi

so we pull into the parking lot we walk in i tell martin

he doesn't know we're here i'm gonna crank call his room

because what are you gonna say i said i'm gonna tell him

that i'm the front desk and that he just received a gift basket what's

so funny about a gift basket i said i'm gonna describe it over the phone

and i'm gonna make all the items

that are in this imaginary basket become items

that stereotypically a black person might like

but you're crazy i said i'll tell you what we got two hours to kill how

How about this?

How about we go to the supermarket

and we make an actual racist gift basket and we'll have it delivered and we'll wait outside to see what happens.

I said, are you down?

We go to a store and we start to design the sickest practical joke ever.

I get a shopping cart and I'm like, all right, we need a basket.

So I find one, I take out the grass, the plastic eggs and the chocolate rabbits and we start hitting the aisles.

First item I grab is a fried chicken about that big.

See how quick that laugh was?

There's a few black people in here like, mother f*er, this better be funny.

It's hysterical.

Let me just finish the story and then you can judge me in the parking lot.

So anyway, then

Martin hands me a miniature watermelon and I put it next to the fried chicken.

Here's where it gets interesting.

Employees of the store find out what we're doing and they start volunteering to help us finish the basket.

Half of the employees were black, which made it so much more accurate.

Aisle after aisle, aisle.

One guy was stocking a shelf.

He was an older white guy.

And we're like, sir, can you help us?

What do you need?

My buddy Martin

and I are trying to make this messed up racist gift basket for our black friend as a practical joke.

Can you think of something we can put in there?

Without even blinking an eye, the guy was like, You gotta have Kool -Aid.

It's at the end of the aisle on the right, malt, liquors, and XL over in the back of the store in the freezer section.

It's on sale two for one.

By the time we get to the register, all these different employees plus us came up with the basket that had fried chicken,

watermelon, Kool -Aid, grape soda, barbecue potato chips, sunflower seeds, an ebony magazine, a Chris Rock DVD called Bigger and Blacker,

Magnum condoms, Newport cigarettes, A rack of ribs, the recipe for cornbread.

It was getting bigger and bigger and bigger and bigger.

Icing on the cake, we find a greeting card that's on clearance from Halloween,

and it has a picture of three ghosts on the cover wearing sheets.

I tear off the half that says, Happy Halloween, and on the back of the card, I write, Welcome to Fresno.

Love the Chamber of Commerce.

And we stick it to the basket.

We made it all nice and pretty and we haul ass to the hotel

We pull up

We walk in the basket is hot as hell

so I'm racing in I get inside and I put it on the counter as fast as I can bro.

It's too perfect

There's a black girl behind the front desk

As soon as I put the basket down I hear Is that chicken?

Ooh, let me see.

Hold on.

What is it?

Let me explain.

My name is Gabriel.

This is Martin.

We're a couple of comedians, and we're about to play a really crazy practical joke on

a friend of ours who's staying here tonight by the name of G.

Riley, who's also a comedian.

Oh, the one that's on the signs on the freeway.

Yeah, the one that's on the signs on the freeway.

So as a practical joke, we went to the store and we made this messed up racist gift basket.

That's why you can smell fried chicken.

And she was like, what?

You need Jesus, that's what you'll name.

Kiki, girl, you better hang up that phone.

You ain't gonna believe what I'm looking at over here, girl.

Listen, we think it would be hysterical if we could have you deliver the basket for us.

She lost it.

Oh, the hell you didn't.

I know you didn't just ask me to take that to a black man.

You are out your damn mind.

100

Oh, Lord!

101

Lord!

102

Give me the strength to not kill this big -ass Mexican over here, Lord.

103

Mm -mm.

104

Uh -uh.

105

Okay, look here, Nacho Libre.

106

I don't care who you are.

107

I am not doing it.

108

Hell, no. I'll give you 50 bucks.

109

Where that mother at?

110

We follow her to the hotel room.

111

She knocks on the door.

112

Martin and I hide by the elevator on the floor.

113

She knocks.

114

She opens the door, sees a beautiful black woman standing there with a gift basket.

115

This is for you, baby.

116

He says, thank you, closes the door.

117

She walks away and she sees us on the ground hiding, right?

118

And she's like, y 'all still going to hell.

119

We get up and we walk over to the door and we put our ear, listen, listen.

120

This is what we hear inside.

121

Woo!

122

Chicken!

123

Oh, Kool -Aid!

124

He's getting excited over every single item he's pulling out of the basket.

125

He gets to the greeting card.

126

What can the friends know?

127

Love the chamber of commas.

128

Hell yeah.

129

Then we feel him flipping the card over because his voice changed.

130

He's like, oh yeah, man, this is...

131

What the ?

132

Outside the door, we heard racist bastards.

133

When we heard racist bastards, we lost it.

134

Housekeeping is freaking out.

135

We're laughing, we're crying, we got boogers coming out.

136

We can't take it anymore.

137

We knock on the door.

138

He yells, who is it?

139

Too easy, chamber of commerce.

140

He rushes the door.

141

I put my finger on the people so we can't see who it is, right?

142

The knob starts to jiggle, then the door explodes open and he's like, what?

143

And he sees us and he's like, ah!

144

Ah!

145

What's up, G?

146

Man, y 'all give a brother heart attack.

147

Did you like your basket?

148

Man, that was messed up.

149

Did you like it?

150

Man, I love all that shit.

151

And now, ladies and gentlemen, a story that has been seven years in the making.

152

I would like for you to now hear, for the first time ever, the other side of that story.

153

Ladies and gentlemen, I flew him here to Hawaii so that he can share this with you.

154

Give it up for my friend, Mr. G.

155

Rylou!

156

I gotta be honest, I didn't know it was racist.

157

I thought it was lunch.

158

I thought it was lunch.

159

I didn't know it was racist until I got back to my neighborhood and the brothers in my neighborhood looked at me,

160

They say, man, I don't believe you let that Mexican guy do that to you, man.

161

That was messed up.

162

I know you got him back.

163

I said, what, buy him lunch?

164

I can't afford to buy that man lunch.

165

If I buy him lunch, he'll be getting me again.

166

But you gotta understand, it was a perfect set of circumstances when it happened.

167

Because I'm laying across the bed in the hotel.

168

I had never been to Fresno before.

169

And I wanted something to eat, and I didn't know where to go eat.

170

So I'm laying across the bed, and I'm saying to myself, where could I go eat?

171

I wish I had some food.

172

And all of a sudden, magically, there's a knock on the door

173

and a black girl shows up with a gift basket

174

and I took the gift basket

175

and I said they know how to treat their comedians up here in Fresno

176

and I'm walking to the bed and I can feel the heat

177

and I can smell the chicken from the gift basket

178

and I'm like oh this is cool because nobody smells chicken and thinks of racism right

179

I see the watermelon.

180

I'm like, oh, this is cool.

181

They know how to treat a comedian up in here.

182

I get to the card, and I look at the card, and I go, what the is going on?

183

I said, oh, my God, I'm working for the Ku Klux Klan.

184

And I really started to panic, because in my head, I'm saying to myself, is this for real?

185

Because there were billboards all over the city with my picture.

186

And I started thinking they were trying to scare me out of town.

187

So now I don't know what to do, right?

188

And I start trying to call a promoter, and the promoter's not answering the phone, and it's festering in my head,

189

and I'm nervous, and I'm pacing the room, and all of a sudden there's a knock on the door, right?

190

And I go, oh my God, they come to get me.

191

so i so i ease over to the door right

192

and i look through the people right

193

and all i see is a brown dot right

194

and i go i hear somebody out there because i hear the breathing right i hear

195

so this was about 60 pounds ago right

196

so i gotta look down up under the door right

197

but i said oh my god it gotta be about five or six of them out there

198

Oh my God.

199

So I figure like this.

200

I figure, okay, you know what?

201

If it's gonna happen, it's gonna happen.

202

You know, if it's gonna happen, I'm gonna go down swinging, right?

203

So I put my best black face on.

204

You know, I tried to look mean.

205

You know, I look like this guy right here.

206

I look like that guy right there, right?

207

And I go, who is it?

208

And they go, Chamber of Commerce.

209

And I go, oh my God, the Chamber of Commerce is the Klu Klux Klan.

210

And I'm panicking, so I get to the door, right?

211

And I pull the door open, and when the door opens up, these guys are falling all over the hall laughing at me.

212

They're rolling all into the cleaning lady's car.

213

The cleaning lady didn't know what was going on, right?

214

She's scared to dust because she sees a black dude with no shirt like this, so she grabs the lemon pledge like it's pepper spray, right?

215

She's ready to get...

216

So everything, now that I realize it's a practical joke, everything calms down, because I remember how hungry I was.

217

I'm like, okay, cool.

218

Practical joke, right?

219

So I go in the bathroom to wash my hands.

220

While I'm in the bathroom washing my hands, I hear a commotion in the other room, right?

221

I go back in the other room.

222

They're going through the gift basket.

223

The maid is leaving with the watermelon.

224

Martina's drinking my 40 and this bastard is eating my chicken!

225

I'm outta here!

226

Thank you.

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
