“makin’ copies” SNL sketch aired in 1991
In 2023, Rob Schneider produced an “antiwoke” stand up special for Fox News called “Woke Up in America”. I watched it because it seemed very silly that a standup comedy special was made for Fox News. It was the worst standup comedy show that I’ve ever seen.
Rob Schneider has been right wing for a while. I remember seeing a clip of him making fun of homeless people on Fox News as a commentator for Fox news.
Someone start a countdown timer: Rob Schneider is going to be on an “I’ve been cancelled” arc any minute now, I guarantee it.
This has already happened I believe
yeah he’s really reactionary now isnt he?
Half of his routine wasn’t even jokes. Just complaining about kids these days like an old man.
However, the Hospitals of Regina Foundation issued a statement on Wednesday that reiterated an “unconditional apology” given to guests at the event, saying Rob Schneider’s jokes at a fundraiser do “not align” with the foundation’s values.
“We do not condone, accept, endorse or share Mr. Schneider’s positions, as expressed during his comedy set,” the foundation wrote in an unsigned statement.
Yeeeeah… I totally believe this
CW: What he said - transphobia
The top reply
A little late to the post but I was in attendance. He opened up with some pretty funny jokes about how Trump is a convicted felon and so America is a shit show compared to us. Those got laughs, obviously.
But then he jumped into how Trudeau made everyone get numerous vaccines and called it a “scam-demic” with no real punchline, which was enough for the crowd (including me) to start realizing that this guy was a moron and his set would be a trainwreck. He then moved to transphobia saying that “back in my day we liked our women without penises” and told an anecdote about how he told his son, who is “bad at sports” to say he is a girl to get a better chance.
Then said that biology says otherwise and that there is no proper word for people with vaginas anymore. Then he discussed how the New York Times is nuts for using the term “menstruating people.” Typical transphobic dumbassery and most of it was an attempt at indoctrination rather than comedy. He also endorsed Robert Kennedy Jr. to a crowd of Canadians, lol.
The rest was kind of tame but the crowd wasn’t laughing. He harped on how “wives/women” do XYZ and Men have to put up with it. Typical old school and overdone “being married sucks” schtick and obviously offensive but still kind of tame compared to the other stuff. Then he told a story about his vasectomy which would have been kind of funny if not prefaced with all of the other shit.
They cut him off early after that, but it was after the vasectomy story. He was floundering bad and kept looking at his notes to try to figure out what to talk about. I think he was realizing he had burned through stories and ran out of jokes. He said he had one more story, and that’s when the host told him that they had run out of time and had to get to the after party. One person did film his set too, and he told them (IMO in a serious way) to stop doing that and that he would put it on YouTube himself.
The organizer of the event came up afterwards and said that no organizer of the event agrees with his views and apologized. Said they might do a musical act next year.

All the way from Detroit, it’s Kid Rock!
"I got a new song I want to try out with y’all. It’s called Kill Cancer." He opens the secret box on his mic stand and takes out a LIMITED EDITION 24K GOD EMPEROR TRUMPGOLD AR-15. He holds it like a Marine ready to fire. The audience is panicked. “Don’t worry. It ain’t loaded. See?..” He points it at the spotlights and he pulls the trigger: bullets fly, lights explode, and electronics pop. The audience is screaming. “Oops,” he says.
You’re telling me that the guy who played Duce Bigelow: Male Gigolo wasn’t a good idea for doing a gig at a hospital?
Lmao now I want to know what he said
The only garbage opinion slurry the brain worms allow him to projectile vomit at listeners
No brain worms would be caught dead in Rob Schneider. That’s the road to starvation.
Woof. How embarrassing.
Is it me of have a lot of gen X comedians become like “wife bad” boomers?
Gen X internalized boomer culture. They may hate that they did, but they did, and they know it.
We love our gen X and Boomer comrades though. It must have been hell growing up through that and somehow staying left
Absolutely. Leftists over 40-ish are true survivors. I don’t buy into generational war crap. That’s distraction from the real war, the class war.
I’m old and I think “wife bad” comedians have always existed. I suspect that if looked at the 1970s comedy I grew up with - I’d be surprised (if not shocked) how much casual misogyny there was. I assume this sort of stuff - “What’s wrong with women/girls? Why are they so stupid? The other day…” - was considered normal in stand-up, in tv series, etc. Long after things have changed - it can be surprisingly hard to remember the details of what used to be mainstream.
The difference today is it’s unacceptable for stand-ups to hate on women to a normie audience. Turds like Schneider can’t help themselves. They have to attack… erm - I mean “make jokes about” somebody so they moved on to small minority groups like trans people.
I think Schneider is playing with fire. One day he could realize he became too problematic and he lost the support of his all-important patrón Adam Sandler. I’ve always wondered if Sandler’s a sort of a shitty person in private and in reality.
I like to believe Sandler’s politics are those of You Don’t Mess With The Zohan, which features an Israeli supersoldier quitting the army for love and teaming up with a Palestinian supersoldier to beat up white supremacists funded by a capitalist
Foundation’s Four Seasons Ball fundraiser
If this wasn’t a fundraiser for testicular cancer somebody fucked up.
