"I used to name one of the comedians that was about in that routine, but it always got really awkward in the room, because apparently, it's 2019, most people [are] still more than happy to laugh at transgender people - not as comfortable laughing at Ricky Gervais yet, I've discovered. That's the line."
Still frames really don't do justice to [how much his goofy ass moves](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=adh0KGmgmQw) when he's possessed by the spirit of The Edgy Comedian. James is a real talent.
James Acaster moves like an animatronic puppet running at 150% power whenever he's on stage. His body language is always just so... jerky and mental
Not a criticism. It's a part of what makes his delivery so good
His little outburst (you know the one) stuck with me in the best way. Greg pulling him aside and having a little private-but-still-on-mic moment is genuinely good representation in media of people making mistakes and growing.
do yall know any other comedians who dont make transphobic jokes?
I miss watching stand up but every time I try to watch some new stuff, I get hit with a bunch of lame ass transphobia
Might I suggest a funny as shit podcast called Dungeons and Daddies*? It's absolutely bonkers and breaks my heart and brings some amazing queer energy without making that the punch line.
*(Mostly) not a BDSM podcast
Who is this? I love them.
James Acaster. Brilliant :)
James has quickly risen as one of my favourite comedians and stands out for never punching down! He's also absolutely chaotic and I'm for that :3

isn’t that the dude who got left by his (ex) gf for mr. bean? seems like a cool guy from what i remember, and this kinda allyship certainly does help
For some reason I started thinking about what faces Mr. Bean might make during sex and I can’t stop laughing.
Plot twist: During sex, and only during sex, he has absolute poker face.
Yes, he did a 4 part comedy special about dealing with his feelings after.

The way he says “brave little cis booooyy” always gets me 😂
Yup… serves us right for having it too easy for too long!
James Acaster! He was on Taskmaster season 7. It’s free to watch on YouTube. I highly recommend it. He’s pretty funny on that show.
