This is the most they would let me donate. Gonna venmo you the rest of this rack! Congrats on making your own special. GANG.

Giving away his special for free, such a kind and generous thing. It's very Christian of Ari

Never forget the 6.5 million views.

A post card from your dad written in your mom’s handwriting is my favorite joke.

Congrats getting Kanye to help promote this!

Speaking for all the comedians. If you guys give some tips, we can keep doing these. Imagine a world with no more gatekeepers. Where the only things holding us back is the amount of money it takes to make these. I like the Edinburgh Free Fringe model of shows where we don't charge the audience for tickets. But then after the show, the comic stands outside with a bucket and people throw in their "thanks" as they file out. On great shows, I made more. On shows where I was off or tired, I made less. The adults put in more than the college kids. But even the college kids threw in a pound or two. And the people who owned houses kicked in 20s or 50s. Sometimes even 100! This model allowed everyone to take a chance on a show without financial risk, and then afterwards they gave what they woulda given had they known how good it was going to be. The amount of money I'd get in my bucket was always in direct correlation to how good a show I had put on. When I was on fire, the bucket would be overflowing with cash. When I was off the bucket would be lighter. It was fair. Well, same with these specials. If you see one you loved throw in a lot. If you see one that was so-so, throw in less. It was paid for by the guy on stage. And you're directly paying back the guy who brought you an hour (or in this case 90 minutes) of laughs. I think a fair price for an ok special is $3-7 dollars. That's a good price for something they worked on for 2 years (or in this case 5 years 6 months 11 days). And I think a fair price for something amazing is closer to $20. But obviously a lot of that comes down to your individual financial status. We're all somewhere in between those college kids and those adults who owned their own homes. And by the way, this isn't just for me. This is for all the comedians on UKposts. They all took a chance. And they're out there with their buckets. Some of them you already walked past. But they're still out there. Go back. Go back and tip out List, and Iapalucci, and Normand, and Morrill, and all the other ones. They gave you something you loved. Return the favor. If you got money, give them what they deserved. If you don't, I get it. I was poor for a long time. A very long time. But just because you're poor doesn't mean you can't put something in the bucket. In Edinburgh, my bucket would have plenty of bills. But it would also be littered with interesting coins from around the world. With Lucy, and Mandy. With ideas on cool restaurants and bars. The equivalent here is to tell people about what you saw. Post it in your stories with links. On your other pages with links. Post about it on your main pages and then again a week later. Spread the word. Leave comments. Tell the comedian how much you liked it. Tell them about a bit or two or some jokes that really stood out. All that stuff helps too. If we're going to free comedy from these gatekeepers, we can all play a role The only reason a comic would go to network is for the reach and the money. Well, UKposts has the most reach. And the least censorship. UKposts has no executives coming in with their ridiculous notes on what a professional comedian should or shouldn't put into their work. Honestly, how dare they? The gall to tell a professional and talented comic what they should do on their own special. It's so disrespectful. And UKposts has no gatekeepers. Gone are the days where a talented comedian gets told they're not famous enough, or they're too dirty, or too political, or wrongly political, or they're the wrong gender or race or age. That power is now in the hands of the comics. It's up to us to decide when we are ready to record something. That's our responsibility. And when that time comes, we gotta get a ton of money together and take a huge chance. And if you guys hold up your end of the deal, it can be at least a break even thing for us. We'll all do this if we can break even. We'll take years of work and give it away if we have a decent chance at simply breaking even. Those networks are irrelevant to good standup. That's a shame but it's true. We can change the game. We can free the art form from these dinosaur gatekeepers. Imagine no more censored comedy. Imagine every special being exactly how the comic wants it to be. Every deserving special getting made so you can watch it. We're in this together. It's a symbiotic relationship. Standup is the only art form on earth that requires an audience to exist. So let's put these out together. Crowdsourcing after the fact. Pay what you can and what you feel like you should. The way they do it in Edinburgh We. Are. In. This. Together. I'll be outside with a bucket after the show. Let's GOOOOOO!

I've never been a fan of Ari shaffir, but this special was one of the best specials I've ever seen!! I mean it was so cleverly written and every joke was really thought out. Wow. I'm actually really impressed and I am now a fan of Ari shaffir!

A great example of how important every aspect of stand up is. From concept to performance, writing and working out material. This is so extremely tight, well written, and brilliantly performed. Thank you Ari

Releasing his new special for free on UKposts is a ballsy move by Shaffir, and I respect it. Well done, Ari.

My Dad (who also left Judaism) watched this in his final months of life and really enjoyed it. I like to rewatch this and picture him laughing. Thanks, Ari! PS - love the new travel pod.

Please share this on stories with a link to the special! And share on regular posts! I want everyone to see it!!!!! And donate a few shekels!

At 5.9 million views I just have to keep watching on repeat till we get ALL 6 MILLION VIEWS!!!!

Been watching your stuff for like 15 years, this special is awesome - congrats mate

I Been in a mood for a long time now and it felt good to laugh like that. Thanks Ari!

Damn Ari, for an 85 year old dude you are still out there crushing it.

I think this is the start of a new era of Ari’s comedy. He’s finally starting to allow himself to be a bit more vulnerable, which makes him so much more relatable. Religion aside, he’s sharing more personal stories, and I think that’s always a solid move in comedy.

This is still one of the best specials ive seen in a long time. I cant stop watching and sharing with friends. 🤘🤘🤘

I hear Ari on lots of podcasts and generally think he’s a very funny dude. But this special is DIFFERENT. Talk about a special that is so much different than everything else that has come out in recent memory. Part storytelling, part education, all completely funny, every joke hits. Well done sir, definitely passing this along to the homies 👏🏼

I have been waiting literally years to hear this special, don't think I've ever been so hyped for a comedy special!

Watched it twice and im back again for a 3rd, this special is gold.

Ari is the best..hard work pays off..this special is a master class in stand up

This was hands down the best way to learn about Judaism. Thanks Ari

Ari has been holding out for years with this release, waiting on Ye bring the subject matter into the public square first :D brilliant

Paused the Glassman podcast to come and watch the whole thing. Loved it.

The circumcision act out always gets me. I've seen this special like 5 times now - such a good, tight set. This one goes right up there with the classics.

Every artist says "this is my best work" and I take it with a grain of salt, but hands down this ONE MAN SHOW is one of the best comedy specials Ive seen in years

Thanks Ari! For making this special affordable with my $0 comedy budget

absolutely fantastic work Ari. I hope to see you live someday.

Congratulations on the Grammy nomination Ari! This special is definitely worthy of the award! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

As someone who grew up in a very religious environment and can relate to a lot of this material from a different cultural perspective and as someone who appreciates comedy in a city that largely doesn't get it, thank you from the bottom of my heart. This material will always hold a special place to me, because of the look I got when you performed the Berlin bit in NOLA and I laughed hysterically and looked to my right to see the 50-ish year old woke couple looking at me in disgust before abruptly leaving. Getting a picture with you at the end made my night. Thanks for all your work. Until next skankfest

Putting a free comedy special where we can comment is so brave! Give this man a medal

Can't believe I'm just seeing this now. Amazing special, Ari. Deepest laughs I've had in a long time. Haven't listened to the Skeptic Tank for awhile due to work constraints, but I've loved your work for ages. Hope you're getting all you want and deserve.

This is a damn masterpiece. Passive Aggressive was fantastic. Been waiting along time for this, and worth every minute of the wait.

At only 5 mins in I was giggling me t*ts off, and now at the end I can say this has to go down as one of the greatest specials in standup history.

I saw Ari in Kansas City back in May, while he worked out his special Jew. I watch a LOT of live comedy, and when big comedians come through for their special it's always at a theatre. Instead Ari went to a comedy club near me for a quarter of what you'd normally pay to see a Comedian of his class. For an hour and a half, and 25 feet apart I got to see the best comedy show I've ever been to, and at a club no less. Thank you for coming to KC Ari.

this special is definitely goes into my top 10 of all times. it was hilarious and INTERESTING, and this is what many comedians lack of, interesting material and stuff u didnt know before. thats why this special doesnt make u bored and its long. bravo Ari! also its free on youtube, what a gift

This special is so good this is the only one that I come back to and watch all the time

A friend recommended this to me and I was not disappointed! I grew up Catholic and did a few years of Religious Studies at university and this was right up my alley. Hilarious!.

I've never sent anybody money besides family but this was one of the most classic specials I've ever seen and I know how much went into it. This was so original that I SHOULD have to pay to see it.

I keep coming back to watch this. So well done

-- watched it again and read the notes part. This is definitely not a so-so special. I learned a lot, had a lot of laughs. I hope you make your money back and then some.

My brain is so confused. I’ve never liked your standup, but this may be one of the best specials I’ve ever seen. Killed it man.

Been waiting a long time for this, worth every penny.

I’m late to watching this but DAMN Ari you did the damn thing. Congratulations on the success of this special, well deserved.

Thank you for providing entertainment while I escape from my responsibilities. God bless you!

6 million! 🥳It sounded ambitious, but when you put your heart into something I guess…CONGRATULATIONS, ARI!!! Making specials “special” again!

No one has ever understood how I have always felt about religion until now. You nailed this so perfectly!!

Genuinely Amazing Special. Congratulations on 6 million!

That was amazing!! You made my day at work fly by ❤

First special I’ve ever seen of Ari’s. Absolutely amazing. An hour and a half about one single subject and it’s amazing

Second time watching and it is as good as the first. You are good!

This has got to go down as one of the all time best sets from start to finish.

As a Jewish person, this is one of the funniest dialogues on our people & culture I’ve heard! Love it!

Thanks Ari -- I watched this when it came out and couldn't believe people didn't even pay you... then I realized I was one of them! You deserve all the good stuff that comes from putting this special out for free.

Always talked shit about Ari until I heard him interview a little more. Been disappointed with standup lately and this was a breath of fresh air. Awesome set. Respect to you Ari. New fan

Come back to this and listen to it all the time.

This is already better than 99% of the specials I've seen Edit was the number, seemed really appropriate

This special is pure brilliance

This is an amazing performance… Thank you!

Best Ari special ever. The acting out, the punch lines perfectly timed. Ari can go out with this one. He can chill for 4 years without another special. This one is dam near perfect.

I was at the taping of this special and this show before the pandemic, some of his best material.

Man this is a great special! One of the best I’ve ever watched

One and a half hours of really great, enjoyable, and funny stuff! The amount of effort and care that went into making this YT special is evident. Ari's appearance on 2B1C from July 2023 brought me here BTW.

This is the best special of the year. Never would have thought someone could top Gringo Papi. Seriously, home sick and really needed a laugh. Sent this to all two of my Jewish friends

This was the most flawless stand up set I've seen in a while

Damn! This was legit the funniest comedy special I've seen in a loooooong time. Nice one, Ari! 👍

This was great! I found this late, but excited for more.

The stage set is gorgeous, Ari. God bless you for making this free

This is an epic special. Congrats on setting a new standard of comedy. That stage design was absolutely brilliant, beautiful, and tied the whole thing together. Ladies and gentleman Ari dropped his masterclass, I don’t know how you top that.

I've watched this multiple times and it still kills me. I recommend this to anyone who will listen to me as one of "the best stand up specials ever".

Such a great special. I keep coming back to watch it every month.

Watched this on a whim and was blown away by the performance. Thanks for making it available for free, never would have come across it otherwise.

Ari as another Jew I'm saying we need more people like you. I had to share this with my brother. I could not stop laughing the whole time. I am a believer in God. But I do not believe in the religion. Or I believe most of it is skewed. Very similar upbringing to you so it was so relatable. You are a comic genius, and just earned your way to my top 5. Loved the other work that you do. I've been listening to you since the Amazing Racist. and it's great that we can laugh at each other and others and not get offended. The world would be a better place like this. Nothing but the best. The best stand-up I've seen in a very long time. Legendary. You are a lion 😉 the goys won't get that. Leaving you some love in the form of our favorite thing. You inspired me to write my own comedy. Shekels well earned

I got to see Ari live in Boston a few years ago when I lived there and thought he was fantastic so love to see this great special.

Glad to see the views are up to 6M that’s awesome!! Congratulations on your success!

Besides how abundantly clear it is that this has been incubated in time and passion to create something great, I'm getting some seriously warm, sitting-around-the-campfire story time type feels. And it's not just the candles. Great work Ari

This is easily one of the best specials of the year so far and certainly the funniest Ari has ever been on stage.

What a special!!!I was blown away!Thank you Ari!

This is top notch standup comedy. I can't believe he gave this away for free on youtube. Thank you Airi

That was such an amazing wrap-up. It was so fucking hysterically comprehensive, i feel like i just watched a masterclass on comedic storytelling ❤

Amazing Special! Ari was one of the first comedian's I saw live after I started doing stand up 8 years ago. I waited until everyone else had talked to him and bought merch. I introduced myself and said I had just started stand up. He was super nice, took the time to talk to me and asked me a few questions. Then he signed the shirt I bought from him and wrote on the shirt "Stick with it," ruining a perfectly good fucking shirt! When I started I fucking sucked but I took his advice, and obsessed over comedy and last month I got to perform a short opening set in a 450 person theatre and crushed it. Thanks Ari for caring about the up and comers and shitty open micers.

You have singlehandedly introduced me to so many great underrated comics, writers, musicians, podcasters, and travellers. I am so glad that you (a woefully underrated comic) can get that skeptic tank bump you deserve. Great job Ari.

Amazing set. The best I've seen in a while

8 minutes and in and Wow, this is gold, gold! No pun intended! I am pausing and saving it, to watch in increments... Dilute you with some middle level comics)) You Sir are amazing, after watching and re-watching Bill Burr, Jim J, and Louis CK was looking for another great, and here you are!!! Thank you Man!

Saw this in Philly a few years ago and was hoping the special would live up to my beer and pot infused memories of the set. You did not disappoint. Awesome stuff, easily one of the best in years.

Thank you for all the free content for all these years.

First time watcher, long time stayer I'd guess. Amazing set and a great performance, it's astounding I only found you now. Great work!

Such a great special but you HAVE to see him live. I’m fortunate to have seen him at the mothership for joe Rogan and friends and he killed it! BTW air only a true Jew would say the amount of life savings that went into it 😂You can tell when someone is born to do something and that’s how I feel watching Ari. Thank you!

As a 33 year old Jew this was great...Not only was this an amazing special, but I learned more about being a Jew during this 1.5hr special than I ever did in Sunday school, Torah Study, etc. Mazel tov, Ari! 🇮🇱🕍💎🕎

I'm Catholic and holy hell, this special is top notch comedy. Never seen any of Ari's comedy before. I now have a new favorite comedian.

One of the best specials over the last 5 years!

oh holy shit! I saw you in Berlin years ago and it was one of the best shows I've ever been to and I've been wondering when it was gonna come out on one of the streaming platforms and now I'm a year and half late to discovering it here. Amazing special!!

I’m so happy to see Ari succeed. My expectations were high, and he far exceeded them.

Hands down one of the most artful displays of stand up comedy that I've seen. He almost seemed like he was floating on stage, brimming with confidence, expert timing, quick wit with the crowd, and most of all, educational, actually.

I couldn’t stop crying whilst laughing. Incredible show! Subbed out of pure respect. 💪🏼😎

I can't get over how good this special looks visually. Such a cool idea.

Ari, dude this is your best set you have ever done. I've watched it 3 times now. I've been watching you for the last 20 years, and I will continue to do so. Thank you brother.

This is the best stand-up special I’ve seen in YEARS! Hits SO MUCH harder when you know religion😂 absolutely killed it Ari👌🏼
