Normally, when I create a blog post I’ll submit a video of the performer’s 20+ minute stand-up performance, but this particular post is about an on-stage feud between Carlos Mencia and Joe Rogan. What’s most surprising to me is how the crowd seems to side with Rogan even though they’re at a Carlos Mencia performance. The video provides numerous examples of jokes that Mencia has stolen from other comics throughout his comedic career (and I use that term loosely), that his real name is possibly Ned, that he may not even be Mexican, and several other comedians’ personal opinions on Mencia.

Another interesting point I found is that Mencia had the YouTube video of this removed from the website (here) for copyright infringement. So, instead you can watch the video on Break.com here. It’s kind of hard to understand what Joe Rogan is saying since he doesn’t have a microphone in the beginning but eventually he gets a really low-volume one.

You can also read more from Joe Rogan’s website and how he is now banned from the comedy club.

Pablo Francisco! Now this is someone who truly is a synthesizer walking among men. He has mastered every sound effect through his large vocal spectrum; although, some could say that he takes advantage of this skill too much. His technique of making his audience laugh is a little overdone because it’s all I’ve ever heard him do. I don’t want to make more blind accusations since this is the only stand-up I’ve seen of him, but Francisco seems to be quite the one-trick pony. His latina, surfer, and celebrity voices and sound effects are the essence of his entire act and I’m not entirely sure how much he could accomplish without this talent, but then again it’s his claim to fame and whatever he’s doing works and it works great.

But just because he has such a great amount of enthusiasts doesn’t necessarily mean he’s actually funny. It also doesn’t mean he’s popular amongst the comedian’s own “inner-circle.” He has been accused of stealing material on more than one occasion and is looked at by other comics as a pompous thief who lacks any actual material.

Dane Cook is nothing but eye candy. He pulls in his crowds with vivid actions, loud and obnoxious slapstick behavior, smooth talking, and good looks. I wouldn’t be surprised if 90% of his fans were unsavvy females. He is prone to consistently repeating himself and etching out into different directions with his erratic sense of comedy. Cook is nothing more than overrated and in his case he can walk the walk but he just simply can’t talk the talk.

Dane Cook doesn’t sell his jokes. Hell, he doesn’t even have jokes. He’s simply selling his edgy boy band-esque image.

Just like Gaffigan, Regan loves to talk a lot about food and overeating. He doesn’t need to rely on dropping F-bombs to get his crowd cheering and laughing. Instead, he counter-acts this crutch with an intelligent outlook on common daily tasks that all of us interact with constantly.

In Beyond the Pale, his frequent topic of discussion is common vices of everyday people, such as unhealthy overeating and alcohol. He’s renowned for his hit topic on Hot Pockets but he tries to refrain from it ever turning him into a single-slogan comedian like Larry the Cable Guy.

Martin’s method of unleashing massive amounts of short, offbeat jokes that consistently jump from one to another lacks flow and continuity, but he manages to balance it out by remaining unconventional and unexpected. Overall, his imaginative wit is what keeps his audience in tune.
