In short
Jimmy Carr’s “Crowdwork” set in Philadelphia, mixing jokes about accents, sports, disability, midgets, aging, and international politics (Trump/Iran), plus a gold ad and ticket/ChatGPT promos.
Guest backgrounds
Ron, a software engineer; Jonah, a disabled man who says he can’t drink regular water because it “fucks up” his back and locks up; an older man (92) and his family/partner are also heckled.
Key claims
Jonah’s disability is compared to an 80s movie/camel; Jimmy jokes about disabled parking and “life hacks”; Jimmy claims he previously faced backlash/death threats over midget jokes; he riffs that Iran’s military “blew up a mountain” but “missed.”
Notable examples
“No birds/snowbirds” accent bit; disabled parking “made someone disabled” line; “park in the disabled space” workaround; “Iran! Iran?” and “four-dimensional chess” Trump speculation; gold facts (capital gains, value retention, “stuck in your arse”).
