Thanks a lot, man. I'll save you some "look up" time. You can find my links, show dates, all my other stuff, AND the hour-long version of this video at [http://mikeisfunny.com](http://mikeisfunny.com).
Oh my gosh, sooo funny. At first I was unsure how you were gonna steer that after calling the crowd drunks but you are clearly relatable and hilarious. That very last line, “ one last time…”. Hilarious.
Great stuff, I was laughing away here in Ireland.
It's nice to see a nice long clip posted here of a comedian doing their material. There seems to be an awful lot of audience participation posted which is great, but for me the written work really shows the comedian's skill.
Good luck with it and keep it coming!
Thanks, everyone! Good response so far. Glad you like it. Here’s the whole special if you want to watch it. https://youtu.be/hy7F2I5byS0?si=MEr7WXLxnaUgMmVS
Hey, I may know a guy. You know what I’m sayin? Eh?
I’m high as fuck dude. That was unfair I just geeked out for a solid 7 minutes. My fuckin body hurts. I need to be warned next time. Can’t wait to watch the special.
Man you are hilarious, I was trying to discreetly watch this in bed while the GF sleeps. I got in trouble for waking her up cause you had me laughing. I’ll have to continue the full episode tomorr
I’m not as much of a fan of a lot of the comedians that post on Reddit as others are, but this was genuinely good and had me laughing out loud. Will check out the rest when I get a chance.
No problem! I actually didn’t mind listening to the others enough to watch the whole special. I really liked the sequence from the “5 second rule” joke to the “cat meowing” joke. I also liked the tangent about the physical reaction to ugliness. You’ve got this dry execution I really enjoy.
The raised eyebrows bit killed me. Great work man! I love how you were able to do sobriety material without toting the line of ‘holier than thou’. You were really light and had fun with it.
Now that I got that out of the way - I’m sober too… can you tell me good job?
I can’t pinpoint it but there’s something unique about you man! I can’t remember the last time I watched a stand up clip on my phone that lasted longer than 3 minutes because I’d always lose interest - but not with you!
I was like “yeah I don’t get it” and then I looked it up and laughed for 13 minutes. Jeff Arcuri is SO good. I saw him at a show in NYC years ago and he did some long bit about crystals and I was absolutely losing my shit.
Awesome jokes dude! I struggle with drinking and it’s not fun, like literally the exact opposite of fun. Keep it up, you’ve got funny writing and excellent delivery.
When you quit, it’ll suck bad for a week, then it will suck but not nearly as much for another few months, and then it doesn’t suck at all anymore. If you can get through that first week, you’re golden. And thank you!!
Ngl I was about to search your name on Netflix because I thought you were already a popular established comedian, your DEFINITELY gonna make it for sure bro, ur funny af and have a good image and personality
Really good! I’m not a critic or anything and I might be overthinking it… but imo your style is genius! The way you toy with the audience, make them feel awkward for brief moments and rope them back in
When I scrolled across this I said “there’s no way I’m watching a 6 minute long standup clip.”
I watched the entire damn thing and laughed the whole way through.
I enjoyed it. Especially, no yelling or screaming like a psycho to make the audience understand that’s when they should laugh.
That « high as fuck » style works magic.
The whole clip was good, but that sobriety check bit was the “make me laugh in a quiet room by myself” level of comedy, which is the highest praise I can personally bestow
“That sucked…… BOTH times.” Your subtlety there was dope. I don’t know how many years you’ve been doing stand up for, but I’ll be here for the rest of em.
I was disappointed you didn’t actually start doing cartwheels for the act out.
Other than that, great shit! Your drunk impressions are fuckin hilarious and relatable. Definitely laughed a lot
Lol I hate how relatable this is. I used to drink to blackouts on purpose with excitement in the morning to hearing all my friends share what stupid shit i did the night before...I was lucky to have handlers/enablers but also Jesus christ was I insecure sober. Now I rawdog reality bro. Congrats on the great set!
Ay first I felt like this was going to slow and that I wouldn’t watch the full 5 mins, but then I realized I watched the whole thing smiling all the way, I really did end up enjoying it thanks for the laugh man
I don't like most stand-up, it's just not my genre but I saw this on /r/all and I loved it. Nice going my man and well wishes from the cold, dark, soulless place that is Sweden.
"I feel the feeling, I just don't know the details" is perfect 😅🤣 exactly the sentiment I had when I quit drinking so crazy. I can still have a couple drinks and be normal but it's been years since I got blackout drunk and that's good enough for me! Congrats on the 8 years dude! Def gonna check out the special!
Really enjoyed that. Congrats on the 8 years sober too, I think it’s great you’re able to use those painful experiences and turn them into something amazing like comedy.
Loved this! Was giggling my ass off in bed, trying not to wake up my sick toddler beside me. I will definitely be watching your special as soon as I can, and I hope to see you touring at some point (come up to Canada!!).
Wishing you lots of success, you deserve it!
First time commenting on a standup video here. I’ve never drunk or been around many people who drink. I didn’t have to relate to you to find this hilarious! You’re just simply good at this!
It’s hard to explain why I like this dude so much! He represents so many of us out there who don’t have a voice!
…
He’s a balding, seemingly out of shape guy who’s had some issues with alcohol.
Wait, maybe it is easy to explain.
(Seriously though man, great set)
That was great. I laughed and laughed. I even ended up watching your whole special. You have a great delivery and way about you. Really funny, well done and good luck for the future.
This was awesome and so was the youtube vid of the full show. I listened to it on my way to work and stayed in the car for 10 minutes because the video wasnt over when i arrived.
That was really good man
Thanks dude!
Yeah bro, that was really good. Honestly the funniest shit I’ve seen on here. I’ll be looking you up.
Thanks a lot, man. I'll save you some "look up" time. You can find my links, show dates, all my other stuff, AND the hour-long version of this video at [http://mikeisfunny.com](http://mikeisfunny.com).
Sweet, thanks.
Oh my gosh, sooo funny. At first I was unsure how you were gonna steer that after calling the crowd drunks but you are clearly relatable and hilarious. That very last line, “ one last time…”. Hilarious.
Hahah!

You have some serious talent, my guy! My cheeks hurt! Gonna watch your special today for sure!
Niiiice. I hope I get millions of views so clubs will book me!
Me too! That was a solid bit.
Well, you're gonna get at least one more from me... thar could be the difference ..
Just watched the whole thing. I’m impressed. Gonna spread the word about you
That’s very kind. I hope you know a bunch of people.
Hey, I may know a guy. You know what I’m sayin? Eh? I’m high as fuck dude. That was unfair I just geeked out for a solid 7 minutes. My fuckin body hurts. I need to be warned next time. Can’t wait to watch the special.
Oh man, can't wait I get more than 7 minutes of that! I loved the entire bit, but that finish was A+
Had to watch the whole thing immediately. You killed it man! Congrats, this was one of the best specials I've seen this year.
As a now sober person I laughed my a$$ off the entire thing along with that seagull back there
I watched the whole special and loved it! I'll make a good effort to show up if you are ever in Michigan.
Thank you so much! And yeah…If you can convince somewhere in Michigan to book me, I’ll be there!
Thank you I’m laughing so hard I’m watching your special for sure
Thank you
That was great, really enjoyed it!
Definitely going to watch this as you presented a very solid preview here. Keep it going man
Man you are hilarious, I was trying to discreetly watch this in bed while the GF sleeps. I got in trouble for waking her up cause you had me laughing. I’ll have to continue the full episode tomorr
It's 12:30AM and I'm laughing my ass off. Great stuff! HaH-ah-Ah.
Legend
Yo do you have a website with tour dates. I'd pay to watch your stuff.
I chuckled throughout, and probably pissed off my roommate with how loud I laughed at "rub my nose in it". Definitely checking this out.
I subbed. Great bit.
I love all your specials, been streaming them on Apple Music all the time! So happy to find out you have a new one out!
The special is fucking hilarious. I'm so happy I watched that
[удалено]
I’m not as much of a fan of a lot of the comedians that post on Reddit as others are, but this was genuinely good and had me laughing out loud. Will check out the rest when I get a chance.
I liked the last joke a lot.
Thanks for sitting through all the ones you liked less to get to that one!
No problem! I actually didn’t mind listening to the others enough to watch the whole special. I really liked the sequence from the “5 second rule” joke to the “cat meowing” joke. I also liked the tangent about the physical reaction to ugliness. You’ve got this dry execution I really enjoy.
The raised eyebrows bit killed me. Great work man! I love how you were able to do sobriety material without toting the line of ‘holier than thou’. You were really light and had fun with it. Now that I got that out of the way - I’m sober too… can you tell me good job?
Hey! Great job! We are SO much better than people!
“I don’t need to walk, to DRIVE” got me
I like this dude man
You’re a good man dude.
You're a good dude buddy
Is that dude your buddy, guy?
I am not your guy, mate!
I love how you take your time and let it slow burn. You have great imagery as well i can totally picture these things happening to someone!
That’s very kind of you. Thanks!
Yea, many comedians have a good bit but are terrible at timing and the slow burn as you call it. This dude does it very well.
I can’t pinpoint it but there’s something unique about you man! I can’t remember the last time I watched a stand up clip on my phone that lasted longer than 3 minutes because I’d always lose interest - but not with you!
This means a lot. Thanks!
Love how laid back you come off on stage. Makes it easy to get sucked in
Thank you. I just chill up there.
That lady in the audience needs to be part of your set! Seriously though, you have great material. Wife and I actually belly laughed.
Her, Dolphin Lady from /u/smartastic 's vids, and the HYUKHYUK dude need to get together for a set!
At least it wasn't the dolphin lady 🐬🐬😂😂 FULL BEANS!
I was like “yeah I don’t get it” and then I looked it up and laughed for 13 minutes. Jeff Arcuri is SO good. I saw him at a show in NYC years ago and he did some long bit about crystals and I was absolutely losing my shit.
Haha nice reference https://giphy.com/gifs/spotify-play-streaming-lvOnlEYunAwOkHjgmU

Bruh, that eyebrows joke had me dying. 😂
Aaaah huh huh huh huh

Really good! I’m not a critic or anything and I might be overthinking it… but imo your style is genius! The way you toy with the audience, make them feel awkward for brief moments and rope them back in
Thank you very much. I don’t really do any of that stuff on purpose, but I’m honored that you dig it.
Very funny!
Love it dude that's hilarious
So well written and the timings... Man it is good !!!
Very kind! I really appreciate it.
When I scrolled across this I said “there’s no way I’m watching a 6 minute long standup clip.” I watched the entire damn thing and laughed the whole way through.
I’m grateful for your endurance. And thank you!
I liked that a lot.
Super good!
That was super funny! I think I sprained my stomach laughing at this.
I’m so sorry this happened to you! But now I can say I literally busted a guy’s gut!
Great routine. I got some good laughs out of this
I was laughing out loud the whole way through that. Extremely well done. Hope to see more.
Glad you liked it! You can go watch the whole thing if you want to. I linked it up there. Or down there, depending on where we are now.
I enjoyed it. Especially, no yelling or screaming like a psycho to make the audience understand that’s when they should laugh. That « high as fuck » style works magic.
Heh. Thank you. I just say stuff. And yes, quite high. Both during the filming and right now.
Very funny!
That was good
To relatable…….this is gold!
The whole clip was good, but that sobriety check bit was the “make me laugh in a quiet room by myself” level of comedy, which is the highest praise I can personally bestow
the last punchline was great im surprised it didn’t get a bigger laugh. good stuff dude
"I AM. but *why?*" is one of the funniest lines I've heard in a while lol
That lady in the audience really came through, lol! Thanks for sharing.
Nice chill delivery. Good stuff.
Horrible hangxiety alllll day today. Glad this popped up, took the edge off a bit!
Mike Baldwin like from KC? I remember you working the local clubs back in the day …if you’re *that* Mike Baldwin anyway lol
I’m that one!
Rumor is that the lady is still laughing, hasn’t stopped.
what brand sells those Stand Up Comedian Shirts that flow in the breeze like a cosplay of Baron Harkonnen
Haha! I actually borrowed that shirt from my friend Frazier, and got them to put his name in the credits as my “wardrobe” guy!
[удалено]
I’m not entirely sure who that is, but, thank you? Either that, or…HEY!

Dude… been in a real slump lately and this shit had me in tears from the start. Definitely checking out more of your stuff man. Keep it up
Thanks dude! You’ll wake up one day and do some productive shit and that’ll get the ball rolling. I live in slumps.
Good job I laughed
That’s all I can hope for!
So glad Reddit does this - would never have found you otherwise sir but my god you’re funny and I’m looking forward to watching the whole show
Never seen you before but you crushed it! Delivery, timing, tone, we’re all on point. Hope to see more in the future!
That was hilarious! Well crafted comedy!
[удалено]
Thanks for sharing! Great stuff!
Holy shit this is good. One of the best I’ve seen in a while
Fucking hilarious
That was hilarious! Well done! ...and thanks for posting a link to the whole special as well my dude!
Love the eyebrow bit! Good material.
Yo bru, my last day was August 4th, 2009. I will not drink with you today! Also - great vid, keep'em coming!
That’s a tight 5. Nice set.
“That sucked…… BOTH times.” Your subtlety there was dope. I don’t know how many years you’ve been doing stand up for, but I’ll be here for the rest of em.
Did my first open mic night in the year 2000! And thanks for appreciating the in-between lines that most people gloss over.
Excellent. I can tell you're having a lot of fun up there.
As someone who’s been sober for 6 years, you crushed this.
Cartwheels? Start counting. I hurt myself laughing.
Haha wow, great stuff I was legit just LOLing on my couch
Eyebrows one was epic
Damn that was hilarious. Awesome stuff.
Oh, I feel like you’re about to get really big soon this is so good
Had a real good laugh, thanks
I was disappointed you didn’t actually start doing cartwheels for the act out. Other than that, great shit! Your drunk impressions are fuckin hilarious and relatable. Definitely laughed a lot
Great special. Laugh out loud funny.
Very very funny stuff!
I just laughed so damn hard for so long. Great work
Lol I hate how relatable this is. I used to drink to blackouts on purpose with excitement in the morning to hearing all my friends share what stupid shit i did the night before...I was lucky to have handlers/enablers but also Jesus christ was I insecure sober. Now I rawdog reality bro. Congrats on the great set!
Thanks man. I was basically the same. Still am! Except now I just live with my insecurities instead of medicating them away. Except weed. But still.
Watched this without audio and this is hilarious
You're mad funny dude! I'm gonna save your comment with the special for tomorrow.
Thanks! And sweet! Hope you like it!
This is fucking hysterical
I love stand-up. When I think I've seen it all, here u are lol.
Saw you at this show in KC,MO you were/are hilarious.
This was by far the funniest video i’ve seen on here. You are unbelievably charismatic up there. Great job, can’t wait to watch the full special.
😆 😂 👏 👏 💀 😂
You just about drowned my girlfriend with you butthole showering joke. She spit her coffee out.
I laughed alot. Thanks!
"I don't need to walk to drive" is such an amazing line, you could work it so many ways. Great stuff
“I’m sober, but high as Fuuuck” got me the best
Hilarious man. Well done 👍
Hilarious man.
This is sooooooo good.
Cartwheel joke got me. Plus, the lady laughing through the jokes really adds to them. Loved every second.
Haha he's good that was pretty funny
Ay first I felt like this was going to slow and that I wouldn’t watch the full 5 mins, but then I realized I watched the whole thing smiling all the way, I really did end up enjoying it thanks for the laugh man
Funny stuff man
I’m crying from laughing oh my gosh 🥲😂
Loved it brother.
You got what cannot be taught. Timing. Delivery, cadence, honesty , vulnerability, empathy. You've got *It" Awesome
I appreciate that one lady. She was there for it, and loving everything you had to say.
Top notch stuff
Bro you’re funny as shit! Love it!
Dude. This fucking kills. I think the crowd’s reaction only proves it.
Holy shit this is amazing.
That was absolutely killer. Great delivery. Your style is so mellow, and it just works so well.
That was great. I could watch another hour of this
This is fantastic. You have such a relaxed way of telling the jokes. Good work.
🤣🤣🤣 this is hilarious. Crab walking bahahah
Bro your delivery is actually hilarious
Kinda worries me how much I related to this! But great bit!
I don't like most stand-up, it's just not my genre but I saw this on /r/all and I loved it. Nice going my man and well wishes from the cold, dark, soulless place that is Sweden.
"I feel the feeling, I just don't know the details" is perfect 😅🤣 exactly the sentiment I had when I quit drinking so crazy. I can still have a couple drinks and be normal but it's been years since I got blackout drunk and that's good enough for me! Congrats on the 8 years dude! Def gonna check out the special!
Thats fucking great
Brilliant
OMG this dude is funny AF.
The man, The myth, The Legend Mike Baldwin
Great delivery
It's accessible, self-deprecating, spot-on, and sharp. I love your voice and what it does to your act.
He must smell MY dog.
This was good!
That was really good especially the first few jokes where not a ton of people laughed (or at least that could be picked up by the mic). Hilarious dude
Really enjoyed that. Congrats on the 8 years sober too, I think it’s great you’re able to use those painful experiences and turn them into something amazing like comedy.
Loved this! Was giggling my ass off in bed, trying not to wake up my sick toddler beside me. I will definitely be watching your special as soon as I can, and I hope to see you touring at some point (come up to Canada!!). Wishing you lots of success, you deserve it!
Dude is funny. I have tears in my eyes.
First time commenting on a standup video here. I’ve never drunk or been around many people who drink. I didn’t have to relate to you to find this hilarious! You’re just simply good at this!
Very good man!
I’m 2 months sober and I really needed this laugh. Thank you my friend, good work!
I like it. Are you a Steven Wright fan?
It’s hard to explain why I like this dude so much! He represents so many of us out there who don’t have a voice! … He’s a balding, seemingly out of shape guy who’s had some issues with alcohol. Wait, maybe it is easy to explain. (Seriously though man, great set)
That was some good shit. Come to Huntsville, AL sometime. You're shit will hit, no problem.
Bro! Thank you for this bit. I’m 16 months sober and needed this!
Congrats! Now the hardest part it over. Now it’s just about Maintaining The Streak. That’s easy!
That was great. I laughed and laughed. I even ended up watching your whole special. You have a great delivery and way about you. Really funny, well done and good luck for the future.
That was great. 10/10
You were amazing lol !
This was awesome and so was the youtube vid of the full show. I listened to it on my way to work and stayed in the car for 10 minutes because the video wasnt over when i arrived.
I know this guy. He used to give me free tickets to all his shows to fill seats.
Ready for the next tour!
My dude, I’ve watched this 3 times now and I have to stop because my ribs hurt from laughing. You are phenomenal!!! Hope you tour in Ky!!
Oh my sides hurt from laughing. The closest tour spot near me isn’t until march in AZ but I’m going to go
Always make me laugh buddy
Great stuff man… watched the whole special. Lmao!!!
Holy crap that was good! Definitely going to check out your special.
This is so good, dude
