Automatic transcript. May contain errors.0:00Chronic migraine is 15 or more headache days a month, each lasting four hours or more. Botox on a botulinum toxin A prevents headaches in adults with chronic migraine before they start. It's not for those with 14 or fewer headache days a month. It prevents on average 8 to 9 headache days a month versus 6 to 7 for placebo. Prescription Botox is injected by your doctor. Effects of Botox may spread hours to weeks after injection causing serious symptoms. Alert your doctor right away as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems or muscle weakness can be signs of a life-threatening condition.
0:30Patients with these conditions before injection are at highest risk. Side effects may include allergic reactions, neck and injection site pain, fatigue, and headache. Allergic reactions can include rash, welts, asthma symptoms, and dizziness. Don't receive Botox if there's a skin infection. Tell your doctor your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions, including ALS Lou Gehrig's disease, myasthenia gravis or Lambert-Eaton syndrome, and medications, including botulinum toxins, as these may increase the risk of serious side effects. Why wait? Ask your doctor, visit BotoxChronicMigraine.com, or call 1-800-44-BOTOX to learn more.
1:00Hello, I'm Jimmy Carr. This is Crowdwork. This is me in Denver. Slightly baffled by the reasons to visit Denver. We have great homeless people. Enjoy. What a fucking beautiful theatre this is. Jesus. Well done, Denver. Who fucking reasons to visit Denver? One.
1:26We found it. This fucking place. Any... what's wrong? We have great homeless people. What's wrong? We have great homeless people. You have great homeless people. Okay.
1:42Do you want to play a quick game of spot the guy who's definitely fucked a homeless woman? Oh, I won. Oh, I win.
1:53I don't know if you're the mayor of Denver, sir, but that doesn't feel like a flex to me. We've got great homeless people. Some of the best in the area. Oh, yeah, the ones that don't freeze to death. Whoa. I've been here in winter. How the fuck do you get... There must be a new batch every year.
2:19That's why you've got good homeless people, they're fresh.
2:27What's wrong? How are the hookers? Here in Denver? Is your mom not talking to you? She's fine. She's fine.
2:44She says hello. She actually said, tell him I said hello.
2:55I'm sure your dad would have said hi if only we knew who it was. What's the what? What's the drunkest you've ever been? What's the drunkest I've ever... That's a great fucking question. I've been pretty fucking drunk in my time, my friend. I've been in, I mean I'm fully fucking Irish, carrying Irish passport, I've been in Las Vegas on St. Patrick's Day, I think.
3:28Like this is in the days before AI could do images, so I'm pretty sure my phone's telling me, yeah, no, I don't know, I don't know who that is. Christ. Wow. Any other? What's this? First failure? The first time you failed? The first time I failed? What? What? The fuck are we to - what? You're a failure, you're like, the first time you were just running in, you didn't feel like it was gonna work out. Oh, okay. What a magnificent question that is. That was a fucking investigative reporter. Yeah, yeah, I got a couple of questions for you. Yeah, this all seems to be going well, but when did you fuck things up?
4:19I think, I would say like mid-twenties. I'd say like mid-twenties, I was working for a large oil corporation, and I suddenly kind of, I think it happens to a lot of men. About mid-twenties is when our frontal lobe sort of completes. And about mid-twenties, we sort of wake up. And it's a sensation of kind of waking up looking around and going, the fuck am I doing? And then I thought, yo-ho-ho, a pirate's life for me, and fucked up and wrote some jokes.
4:48Been fine ever since.
4:54But I miss raping the planet. Until the planet says the safe word, we can keep doing it. The dumbest celebrity you've ever met. The dumbest celebrity I've ever met? Well, I don't think Diddy should have filmed things.
5:17I note with interest, they lost the Epstein tapes, didn't they? Diddy, not so much. What, have you got some sort of rosette on? What's going on there? Is that just your shirt? What? Your shirt. 18, you say? What do you do? Nothing. Tremendous. You'd only fuck it up, wouldn't you? Who are you here with? My dad. Your dad. You alright? You've got quite a ruddy complexion there, sir. I'm not a doctor, but whatever you're eating, stop.
5:58Fuck's sake. What's your name, mate? What's the dad's name? George. George. George. You all right, George? What do you do, George? I own a restaurant. You own a restaurant? Looks good.
6:16You notice that the profits have gone down on the days you're there?
6:25What kind of a restaurant is it, George? Italian. Italian. And whereabouts are you from? Greece. Grease? Yeah, fine.
6:35No further questions. Authentic Italian food from this greasy motherfucker.
6:48What is your next major accomplishment in life? In life? I don't know. I mean, it's all good, isn't it? Will this not do? I was on, I don't know, I'm having a good week, I would say.
7:12I have had a good week. I did the number two podcast in the world on Monday, which is Kill Tony. Great fun.
7:21And then I did the number one podcast in the world yesterday. It's good. It's fun. Does anyone work in the air as a first responder? Does anyone? You do here. Okay, look, and you do sir? What do you do? You're a nutrition assistant
7:45Wait, wait, wait, wait, I know I know a lot of you are thinking that is not a first responder I know a lot of you are thinking a nutrition assistant. That is some Mickey Mouse fucking bullshit No, no Denver.
8:54Why wait? Ask your doctor, visit BotoxChronicMigraine.com or call 1-800-44-BOTOX to learn more. Because you haven't seen that fat cunt.
9:09Run! Get over there before he eats more fucking cheese.
9:21Nutrition assistant? The fuck are you talking about?
9:29First responder. Also, you can't judge a book by its cover, but you can tell the fucking price. By nutrition assistant, you mean you deliver pizza?
9:45Well, fucking stop, he's had enough.
9:56Your what, sorry? Your girlfriend calls you a pussy, is that true? Your girlfriend calls you a pussy, and you think that might qualify you with a lesbian?
10:10Is this said girl? Well, you are. I mean, I'm not saying you're punching, sir. I mean, you're like a different fucking species. Hello, hello, madam, what's your name? Hi, Heather. You didn't know your dad, did you?
10:34Well, give me a second.
10:39Yeah, nailed it.
10:51I give more laughs for my cancer. Okay. It's quite a good heckle, I think. What kind of cancer do you have, sir? Stage four melanoma. Stage four melanoma? Well, keep fighting the good fight, sir. I'm gonna tell some fucking excellent cancer jokes in a bit. I hope you make it.
11:21Jimmy, my girlfriend has been in the hospital for three months and this is our first comedy show since she's been out. Can you wish her a better rest of the year? Who's, where's the girlfriend that's been in hospital for three months? Where are you? Hi. What was the matter?
11:42Lupus. Lupus. Are you going out with a Mexican man called Lupus to beat you up?
11:53Autoimmune, yes. I've got you. Thank you very much. Sometimes she doesn't understand jokes, but she can chip in on medical advice.
12:05Get lupus and you're in hospital for three months, you poor thing.
12:11Although... There's stage four cancer in the balcony. So fucking chair, I can't.
12:18It's like, it's very... Is that like the one that's incredibly tiring? Like you're just exhausted the whole time? Oh, I'll tell you what. Have you tried, and I'm not a doctor, have you tried cocaine?
12:34It's... no, it's ever so peppy.

12:40And you won't forget to take it, it's very Moorish.
12:51Very much of luck, get well soon. We wish you well.
12:59I really appreciate you coming out and making the effort. I know it's fucking exhausted when you've got things like that, but hopefully there's brighter days ahead. Good luck. All right, what else is it? I should be studying for my chemistry final for tomorrow, but I'm here instead. Any pointers? Who's got their chemistry final tomorrow? You'll be all right. If you don't know it now, you never will. It's very good to come out and have a laugh, I think, to relax before doing something like that. You do everything in life better, relax, get a good night's sleep. That's what I would imagine would be best.
13:29Thank you. Good breakfast. Yeah? Eat something proper and fucking rehydrate. Does special K with red berries count? Does special K with red berries count? Yeah. Yes. Yes, I think that does count. What's your name? Luke. What's your name? Luke. Hi, Luke. Sorry about all the jokes about autism earlier. Uh... LAUGHTER

14:15This chemistry exam... It's not like a practical thing where you're... It's a written exam, you're not messing around with chemicals. Exactly.
14:29Just checking. I don't want fucking Chernobyl 2.
14:36The best day of my life was the birth of my first child. And that's because that was the day someone told me you don't pay capital gains tax on selling gold coins.
