re: Funny Money: The Dane Cook Story (Netflix)

I know he gets a lot of hate but you have to hand it to him going out on the road and grinding to get out of the massive financial hole his POS brother left him in. Such a fricked up story.

I didn't like his stand-up but he did a solid job in his film career.

Saw a clip of Dane being interviewed yesterday. Apparently his brother had agreed to sit down with Dane for the documentary. They agreed to all the terms and then a week later, Daryl backed out.

At the height of Cooks's popularity, I tried to watch/listen to his material, but I didn't find it funny, so I quickly gave up.
I feel like if you listened to him when you were 16-22 then he was fine but his comedy never really grew up from that age range.

Matt Rife
His stuff can get pretty repetitive since it is mostly crowd interaction things
Probably because all we see is him doing the crowd work and he basically hits on similar jokes for each of the groups. The biggest thing that sets him apart is he will touch on subjects/people (handicapped, gay, trans, minorities...) that most comedians are afraid to go after because they don't want to be cancelled.
Regarding Dane, I would enjoy his stand up, but it was never memorable. Run across it on TV, watch for a bit, eventually change the channels and nothing really stuck out.

I can't believe his brother literally tried to take everything. That's the craziest part to me. He didn't stop nickle and diming until nothing was left.

The brother probably still has a lot of money hidden somewhere.

I love comedian podcasts and Ive always heard them say Dane was one of the OGs and a great guy.
Wasnt my style but dude was a hustler

Dane Cook! Pay per View! 20 minutes! Let’s Go!

Wife had this on last night and I caught the last few minutes of it getting ready for bed. I saw his brother stole/owed him like over $12 million, but only had to pay $50 a month? And to date he's only paid him like $3,900 or some ridiculous number like that. How the frick is that possible?
Also, I saw some woman who was clearly completely full of shite. Not sure who she is, but my guess is the brother's wife? But even only seeing maybe less than ten minutes of this doc, I could tell she was lying her arse off.

That was the wife of the brother that stole from him. She was full of shite. She knew and helped. She must have also used some of that money for weight loss surgery cuz she was FAT before and looks almost sickly in the face. She is also a witch, maybe she put a voodoo spell on Darryl to get him to steal the money.

I feel the same about Matt Rife now. Like he's supposed to be huge but I don't really think he's funny.
i find them both peas of a pod in that they do raunch pretty frat boy humor. I can laugh at both of them for some different bits, but never got into either for much beyond a special or two.

used to work for a small software company - i was doing the bookkeeping and noticed that we received a $50 check from some random woman every month
i asked one of the owners what it was about, and he explained that the woman was the former office manager, who had embezzled $45k from the business, and the $50 monthly was her restitution payment
i said hell, whats the point, she’ll never come close to paying it off
he smiled and said “i know that, but its my fondest dream that on her deathbed, just as she’s taking her final breath, her last act on earth is to sign her goddam name on that monthly $50 check”

Dane is the Nickelback of comedy. Pretty good, hugely successful, but hated by Karens who think it's trendy.
In no world is Nickelback a good band
You don't have to be a Karen to know what shitty lyrics and a bad voice is. My friend even dragged me to a Nickelback concert at the height of their popularity, to this day the worst concert I've ever been to and I've easily been to 100+. But this is coming from the person who thinks The Black Keys suck so it checks out.

I see you're still butthurt that The Black Keys suck balls, much like you. Hipster bitches doing a bad blues rip off. The worst kind of posers in rock. Meanwhile, Nickelback is literally the last rock band to have a number one hit on Billboard. Your friend tried to introduce you to a good rock band but you rejected it like a vegan at a barbecue. Shut up, Karen.

WHOA!!! That changes everything. Somehow now their lyrics are good, the guitar solos aren't awful and intermefdiate and his voice doesn't sound like arse.

You think at the height of their popularity I was being introduced to some unknown band? I already knew they sucked, that just confirmed it even more.
How did our eyes get so red? AND WHAT THE HELL IS ON JOEYS HEAD???
Brilliant stuff. That's what gets you to the top of the charts.

I don't know why Nickelback bothers you so much.
Drink your IPA, loser, the Black Keys are gay. Posted on 11/10/26 at 3:53 pm to tigerpimpbot
I watched it this morning and I feel like a lot of it is his own fault. Like he’s not making Tim Cook/Elon Musk/Jeff Bezos money where he was waking up and he picked up another $30 billion to his net worth overnight. He’s a poor kid from Boston who at his height of popularity was probably worth like $8 milllion at most. Like you should be aware that somebody is skimming $50,000 and $100,000 from you swoops at a time
