Commenting on the prize, Stewart said, “I am truly honored to receive this award. I have long admired and been influenced by the work of Mark Twain, or, as he was known by his given name, Samuel Leibowitz.”
“For more than three decades, Jon Stewart has brightened our lives and challenged our minds as he delivers current events and social satire with his trademark wit and wisdom. For me, tuning into his television programs over the years has always been equal parts entertainment and truth”
- Deborah F. Rutter, Kennedy Center President
The Mark Twain Prize for American Humor recognizes individuals who have had an impact on American society in ways similar to the distinguished 19th-century novelist and essayist Samuel Clemens, best known as Mark Twain. As a social commentator, satirist, and creator of characters, Clemens was a fearless observer of society, who startled many while delighting and informing many more with his uncompromising perspective on social injustice and personal folly.
As a recipient of the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor, Stewart received a copy of an 1884 bronze portrait bust of Mark Twain sculpted by Karl Gerhardt (1853-1940). Previous recipients can be seen by scrolling down this page.
Capital One® is the Presenting Sponsor of this year’s Kennedy Center Mark Twain Prize for American Humor as part of the bank’s three-year, $3 million gift to fund Comedy at the Kennedy Center, a signature program at the Center focused on elevating comedy as an art form and uniting the community through laughter.
The 23rd Mark Twain Prize for American Humor is under the direction of the creative team from Done + Dusted, the Kennedy Center’s producing partner for the Mark Twain Prize since 2018. This year’s ceremony marks the 23rd year that the Kennedy Center’s marquee comedy award will be broadcast nationally.
The event was created by the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, Bob Kaminsky, Peter Kaminsky, Mark Krantz, and John Schreiber. The Kennedy Center is grateful to Cappy McGarr for his steadfast support of the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor since its inception in 1998.

"I didn't prepare a speech" drops one of the most heartfelt and beautifully constructed speeches I've ever heard.
Yup, he obviously lied.
By "prepare" I'm guessing he meant "write out".
@@PapagenoMF Idk about that. Dave does hour long comedy standup sets just freestyle on the regular. He's the best in the world at what he does and it isn't unbeleivable that he free styled this speech. I imagine he atleast had a few bullet points written down about subjects he wants to touch on. However, I do beleive the speech was improvised.
Dave can spout about anything for any length of time without writing it down. He's transcendent like that. Like jazz musicians who can improvise during a jam session. He's that good.
Well certainly he thought about the speech beforehand. Is that preparing? Maybe, maybe not.
“I’m sorry I got it before you, but I’m your lucky lead-in”. The way he brought that line back full circle, this man is a master story teller and comedian.
And without anything prepared! He really is something special
The coke joke too.
This was beautiful to watch
Hahahaha I was waiting for him to come back to that. True Dave. This was heavy!
Guy is a beauty for sure. One of the few remaining people who are honest and brave enough to speak up. Legendary status right there
“You are a cure to what ails our culture”. Could there be a bigger compliment to John Stewart?
Ikr!
The truth in that statement
*Jon
John respects first responders above all others, so Dave calling him one was a nice touch
Yesss!!!
Real talk ❤
it's Jon dude, it's in the title.
@@jeffreyumeh8580
Yeah, I knew that at one point
You're right. And that phrasing HAD to be intentional, don't you think?
I think Dave Chappelle has transcended comedy, and is one of the greatest communicators of this modern era…
💯
Uncancelable
No
Orator’s but yeah lol
This part.
Really listen to what Dave is saying. He was 17 years old and Jon was an adult and Jon and people like Jon made him feel safe. Now knowing all we know about this industry, this is huge 👑
Very true.
I didn’t even catch that true as hell
Jon & some of the other older NY comedians at that time actually used to look after Dave & make sure no one took advantage of him. They were pretty much like big brothers to him.
@@wolf7el356
It’s sad that I’m surprised a human looked out for another human with nothing to gain.
You don't get tall thick straight tree trunks without good soil and solid fencing.
I’ve never seen Chappelle play it that heartfelt and that straight. He’s astoundingly good at it.
Play?
Cuz he ain't playin. Dave is the realest mofo in any room. And the funniest. Dave is the 🐏
you must be the life of every dinner party
@@betternotbitter7just thought you should know that’s a ram emoji not a goat 😭
Yes dave has been speaking in front of people since he was basically a child, he’s quite good at it
I actually teared up at the end a bit... Didn't know they were such close friends and you can tell Chappelle means every single word.
If u watch Half Baked which is Dave's first movie written and directed u see Jon play a small part. They've been close for a long time.
@@Ekwenox "dude, imma check out the stars later. it's really trippy.... especially on weed"
Me too
Chappelle always means every word that comes out of his mouth, that is why he is a master at what he does and he is the goat
Amazing.
Man there's something about Chappelle's story telling. This is an artist's artist!
100% agree...one of the greatest story tellers of all time
Everyone's artist and the storyteller of our society for the past and future decades.
Reductive and ego filled
I agree! I saw him on Inside the Actor's Studio many years ago. I've seen a lot of great guests on that show, and I have to say that Dave Chappelle was by far, my favorite. It became clear that out of so many guests, he was the most brainy and intelligent, the most insightful, the most comfortable in his own skin, the most down to earth and human, the most entertaining and likable, the most enlightened, the most zen, the funniest, the deepest, skillfully improvisational yet clearly studied, the most dedicated and professional, the most humble, the most open-minded, tops in his field, AND an amazingly gifted and captivating story teller. 💫🧠🫀🦁🌀🏆♦🎭💎☯👏👏👏⚡🥇🪄👑
@@redlipstickmafia Yup
I'm not here because I love Jon, I'm here because he loves me. - Chapelle
I'm stealing that line. So beautiful.
I heard that line, and I'm glad I have a friend I can very honestly say that about.
... and I will be using it too.
Reminds me so much about a particular love line I heard my dad tell my late mum when I was growing up...'I don't love you because I need you, I need you because I love you.'
*Chappelle
And the dumb ass crowd laughs like it was a joke. Man i hate ppl
didnt work with my exwife
Dave Chappelle didn't just compliment his friend Jon Stewart, he complimented all of us by showing how to honour and compliment a friend.
Dave Chappelle is one of the most eloquent people to ever hold a mic. I can attest to Jon Stewart's kindness. I get a Wish from Make-A-Wish when I was 16. Jon's humor helped me get through chemo and radiation for two brain tumors. So, I wanted to see a taping of The Daily Show and thank him for making me laugh during the darkest time of my life. My whole family got to meet him in a green room after the show. It was surreal. My sister got a hug from him because she was the only person shorter then him in my family. My point is, I could feel the quality of Jon's character, which Chappelle so eloquently described. And, I have the utmost respect for both of those comedians.
This is such a lovely story. I’m so glad you’re here with us now and able to tell this. Stay awesome ❤
God bless you forever
The "I'm here because he loves me" line took me a second. Really shows how supportive Jon is of people
That was the one bit that went completely over the audience's head. They laughed when Dave said it but he was dead serious, no joke at all.
@@manfakir5640 yeah, he was truly honoring his friend but daves so damn funny some people dont notice when he's serious
Correct. You can tell people didn't interpret that correctly. But that was really solid.
@@manfakir5640 I don't think it went over their head. And they had every right to laugh because Chappelle is the kind of guy that knows how he can bring something serious. I think he did mean to keep it light.
I laughed and still got the message of it and i appreciated it.
This line choked me up.
Chapelle is literally one of the funniest people on earth, but when he goes for the heart... Jesus, he delivers.
TRUTH is always funny, although it hurts not to seldom. But TRUTH NEVER FAILS. It ALWAYS delivers, it has the longest memory, and forgives everything.
TRUTH COMES BEFORE EVERYTHING - EVERYTHING IS THE RESULT OF TRUTH, INCLUDING THE HUMAN (MIND).
Chapelle is such a good person, he can't help it.
He's muslim, respect others.
@@Xc662_ oh okay. Leaping Mohammed, he delivers!
Facts
“Whenever you call on me I will come” is probably one of the most powerful things i’ve heard said from one friend to another you are truly a beacon Mr. Chappelle
That line was simple YET VERT HARD one at the same time, especially the way he emotionally said it too and meant it. Imagine having someone that says means and actually does COME whenever you want be it in hell or heaven wherever they might be.
That friend going to vacation in Australia and you calling him as soon as he lands on the airport, instantly cancels everything, tells the airport stuff he needs another plane back ASAP, simple thing yet very powerful. I got goosebumps when he said that line with that serious face while directing looking John in the eye!
@@Hate---Love I've got a very good friend like that. He's just a straight up nice guy. He's more dependable than any of my relatives. He's picked me up from the hospital on a few occasions and set me straight. I went straight to his house after my brief stay at the police station. And he's the only guy I know who actually phones other people up _just_ to see how they are 🤔
He was really ill a couple of years back and spent a week in hospital so he needed a bit of help with his business and home life and a small army of volunteers assembled from across the country to try and repay some of his kindness.
Which really restores your faith in human nature 🤗❤
"I'm not here because I love Jon Stewart, I'm here because he loves me." It's weird to hear laughing in the background after he says this. That isn't a joke, that is one of the most sincere heartfelt things Dave could say. Dave isn't there because Jon is a great comedian, or even a great friend, he's there because Jon would be (And actually was) there for him.
I don't think people understood what he was saying. Which is silly because he spent the prior two minutes setting up the context, but I guess in the end it still flew over peoples heads. I agree though, it's a bummer the audience didn't grasp how heartfelt and meaningful that statement was.
That moment is a great example of the difference between hearing and listening. Also firmly supports what he said about him being nice and present. Violence begets violence but kindness multiplies kindness.
I thought the same thing. What a great turn of phrase.
People definitely understood what Chappelle was saying. Y'all would laugh at a setup of a Dave Chappelle joke, let alone a punchline, so it's no surprise a crowd would laugh at such a heartfelt statement.
Chappelle is more than just a comedian. He's a master orator that makes you think and feel.
There are some other comedians who are also I think in his league, but in my humble opinion Chapelle is the best to ever do it.
@@SirMo which ones? honest question, am interested. cos this guy is just, you wish you were able to talk like him.
@@LacklusterOfficial In my opinion Chapelle's contemporaries worth also checking out are: Bill Burr, Louis CK as well as late Norm Macdonald and Patriece O'Neil. They each have their own unique brand of humor but they are all masters of comedy. Alongside Chapelle they belong to the top shelf.
@@SirMo Thanks! I'm already following Burr and Louis CK and Norm (altho should dig in deeper with that guy, RIP)- i think i've seen a standup or two of Patriece O'Neil - will just check. Glad to see there was a connection, at least in your mind, and that there weren't that many (or any) new names.
He's a genius. He doesn't get enough credit for his immense intellect because he's so damned funny. But his extemporaneous diatribes are some of the most insightful and thought provoking I've heard. Love Chapelle.
We in Dayton, Ohio were at an all time low, after the mass shooting that occurred here, and Dave Chapelle, and Jon Stewart came in totally lifted our spirits. Two awesome men.
Agree and admire everything, EXCEPT comments on Donald Trump. Trump was (and will be) a great President. Maybe the jealousy about how funny Trump is😊☺️
@@nelsonlourenco3781 Best president of the 21st century this far.
Lol Trump was a disaster
@@nelsonlourenco3781 Just curious, why do you think Trump was a great president?
@@nelsonlourenco3781 Inciting an INSURRECTION….HILARIOUS 🤣🤡
This speech maybe one of the most incredible speeches ever delivered. The fact that he did it without a teleprompter and just came from the heart is unreal.
This should go down as one of the greatest speeches in history. Also as a shining example of how to give someone their flowers.
And now HE’S BACK!!!!!!!
This guy has truly become the master. I used to listen to him just to laugh at jokes, but now I love the serious knowledge that he speaks.
One of the wildest transformations in show business. Very father-figured, away from his Half Baked days.
Yes. I always feel George Carlin in these masters. They are the voice of reason. sadly not the politians but at least we have them.
Its weird how he never got cancelled for his comments on trans people and pronouns. Many people have been cancelled for saying much less. He must have some kind of privilege.
The part where he says a good comic takes a good point and makes a good joke about it is good hint as to how he plans out his comedy or speeches.
@@tubester4567 it's called not giving a fuck about the media or fame since day 1 and they know that so they can't make him apologize for shit
This was the most sincere, heartfelt tribute from one celebrity to another I have ever witnessed ..and I'm 63 years old.
Ditto. I’m 64. 😊
Create a life for yourself
Yes indeed
Try Louise C.K. his tribute on George Carlin his funeral.
brought a tear to my eye ...very well spoken
That’s one of the best speeches I’ve ever heard about anything. The level of genius it takes to make someone literally laugh and cry in the same speech is truly special.
I hardly ever comment on KRplus videos. But God dammit, I find Chapelle is truly something in his speech. The last few specials, Mark Twain Prize, the one where he got the centre named after him. He gives me chills man. Hats off to both these guys
*Chappelle
Or simply, human?
I also liked his speech at his school it wasn't a comedy special but it's the best speech and most interesting I have ever watched. I see why Netflix uploaded it and it got millions of views as per their website.
@@Tiger-Baby ?
@Matt beaton huh?
I'm teasing.
I remember a time, not so long ago, that the majority of humans had some sort of moral compass and a smidgen of common sense. How these people are DEMONISED for speaking truth, when we should all aim to be straight up.
It is a great thing when someone stands up not for themselves, but for others.
Jon and Dave, John Oliver, Colbert... it's how the ones losing their minds at the tate if the world, get their REAL news, and it's with a joke and a smile, so it doesn't hut so hard.
Satire is there to poke fun at people, but never maliciously, unless, they absolutely warrant it. And Jon's speech to Congress over the 911 funding not being extended at least, you're spot on. These people give you goosebumps. And I have started finding old school politicians, attractive, because of their POLICIES!!!!
My last relationship, in both senses of the word, I finished it because he was an absolute airhead!! Hahaha. Comments like yours, and many others here, give the rest of us hope, that sanity is still a thing.
What happened here, with the RNLI, a volunteer coast guard, rescuing refugees near drowning, and they got a torrent of abuse, from people telling them they shouldn't be wasting THEIR FREE TIME... to save refugees, first from war, and now, an earthquake.
These people are poor, because we stoke their resources and raped and pillaged.
We ALL need to step up, as one.
Hollywood is all BS
If they gave a shit they'd donate and not fund raise...
So. In summary, sorry , but Jon is a great guy. And the video is playing in the background...
More of this. In unison.
Because the world is in trouble.
And we need to start treating people as flesh and blood, not economically
Imagine being Jon Stewart and watching the greatest orator in the comedy world, as he give such a speech about how much he loves and respects you. Truly two legends right there...
@Ag21 can it
@@nunyabizwacks6711 seriously. We’re here alone. Let’s stop putting everything on some big guy in the sky and just BE GOOD HUMANS TO EACH OTHER!!!

LMAO!!!! Dig your sarcasm.
@@StrilanGaming you people get sidetracked so easily
Dave always brings heart and soul to his routine and when he truly cares about something, it comes through so beautifully. I thoroughly enjoyed watching this.
I know right. Wow to Dave.
Beautifully said
Yeah, he should be winning this award, not John Stewart.
Agreed 🤌
He cares about his investments.
That's it.
I would vote for John Stewart in a heartbeat. This was a fantastic speech.
I have tears in my eyes.
Love Jon Stewart.
The voice of reason in the USA
Did you see the sincerity in that mans eyes, and words? That was one of the greatest tributes I've EVER seen, and it came from one of the MOST sincere men on the planet. These are two people that America should be proud of. Protect these men from all foes. Thank you for that Dave, and thank you for EVERYTHING Jon. Much love from the little guy...
You said it
You found the right words....thank you!
Actually, fuck every single transphobe.
Well said.
COULDN’T AGREE MORE WITH THAT STATEMENT
When you love and admire someone it just pours out of you so effortlessly, and Dave showed that with such incredible passion it made me choke up. What an incredible tribute.
Hey! Did you know God is three in one!? The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit! Bless him!
Jesus died for our sins, rose from the dead, and gives salvation to everyone who has faith in him! True faith in Jesus will have you bear good fruit and *drastically* change for the better!
Have a blessed day, everyone!! ❤
Your worries (yes, anxiety), depression, suicidal thoughts, EVERYTHING will melt away and be NO MORE when you lean on God and put your trust in him! When I have physical pain, I literally pray and the Lord quells it, that I am healed!!
Know that there is power in the name Jesus Christ! His name casts out demons and heals! People are bothered by his name. The world hates the truth and wants to continue living sinfully! God's children are set apart (holy) and righteous.
"When you... you so effortlessly," That's how I am with God! ☺️
Two beautiful human beings.
Dave Chappelle is absolutely just amazing and the fact that he came to support his friend and colleague Jon Stewart with such beautiful story and message is AMAZING!
David Chapelle’s evolution is something out of this world! Makes your heart warm
Respect has a new meaning
My goodness. “The lucky lead-in” line.
Dave Chappelle is an alchemist - he turns mere words into gold.
that comment is pretty fab - itself.
Unexpected call backs to jokes or lines from earlier in the set like this is one of my favorite tools in comedy, and it's particularly amazing how well he managed to do it with that line on the fly like that.
Chappelle is the only comedian I've ever known to be able to tell a story with only a few jokes sprinkled in, and it still is fascinating to watch. It's almost like an art performance.
Jon Stewart is another one... so was Robin Williams. Perhaps you're too young to remember 8 yrs ago? ...And nothing "almost" about it. :)
@@MsLizziebeth1 Stewart and Williams were/are gifted no doubt, but I don't see them as storytellers the way Chappelle was. Stewart somewhat, but Williams was a nonstop jokester.
It's like he is a funny griot more than a comedian
There’s so many comedians like that though, really most people that leave stand up for something else and then come back to stand up. They don’t have anything left to prove and take more risk since they’re comfortable with themselves
Well said.
brought tears to my eyes how much love these two have for each other and how good chapelle is articulating it with heart and sincerity. very touching.
Every once in a while I like to come back and listen to this speech, it’s amazing.
This has to be the most honest tribute speech I’ve ever heard. Chappelle manages to say stuff and not make it sound creepy, all the tributes come across sincere and from the heart. At no point does it sound as if he’s just on stage to say something funny. “Bravo”.
Hello my dear 😍
@@keanureeves7028 CREEP. Lol.
@@mr.mr.4772 Creep ? More like an unoriginal wanker posing as a celebrity with a 5 day old novelty account.
The guy on the couch hits the nail on the head
It's a rollercoaster
Dave has matured to be the most _masterful_ comedian of our time. I see his name and I immediately click, not just because I know it will be funny. I click because I know whatever he has to say will be said in the most engaging, the most passionate, and at the same time the most humorous way imaginable. As a public speaker myself I will tell you it's no small feat to pull off all three simultaneously. Facts tell, but stories sell. If you're ever going to give a tribute to someone who means a lot to you, this is how you do it - engagingly, humorously, and authentically.
Hats off to you Dave. Always a pleasure to see you speak.
Spot on comment sir
I love Dave, luckily as a 17 year old male he felt safe around Jon in a disturbing industry and world where 17 year olds are always in an extremely vulnerable position. Too bad Alicia Silverstone can't share that same experience with Jon....Makes you see him totally different. Go check out that interview to see the real Jon, absolutely sick.
Not inky funny this man is incredibly smart and he’s a mastermind behind his points
Agreed. Dave has almost evolved from just a comedian to an extremely talented, hilarious, motivational/public speaker
I absolutely agree with everything you said.
He didn't write a speech.
Also, he didn't have a teleprompter like everyone else did. And that speech was 100% authentic, genuine, and from the heart. Holy hell Chappelle is brilliant.
God damn. This makes me cry every time I watch it. There’s just so, so much sincerity. We need more of this. Whatever it is.
This gentleman is the epitome of intelligence, sophistication, class, and integrity. Mr Chapelle thank you for being the voice of inspiration and integrity. ONWARD.
He accepted Islam too 😁💚
Dave Chapelle has really become a mature and nuanced comedian. He is an accomplished storyteller, definitely.
It's a little weird seeing who he's become since the first sets I saw on Just For Laughs. 20+ years later, Stewart and Chapelle are still the voices we need the most, and that's a hell of a legacy.
No he hasn't. He's become a tedious contrarian.
Why you mad
@@13strong Your mother is a tedious contrarian.
He has become a story teller who is logical, and disarms his critics right before he smiles them down with a line that cuts to the bone.
A Muslim and a Jew sharing such a lovely and beautiful friendship. This is what the world should be like.
Dave Chappelle and Jon Stewart are definitely two of my role models. Both leaders that push us to expand our minds.
Dave’s presence on the stage is frighteningly good. His timing, his choice of words, with a few (or a lot of) moments of comedy… it’s truly something special.
10 thousand hours
A massive gift
@@DaPhreshestKidd Most people won't get this reference but he is even further removed..
Indeed!
He has a good point about Good Points and Good Jokes.
Weak, flaccid, Jokes with no point is garbage.
But if you have a good point and are funny in delivery, it's both strong and funny.
As always, Dave set up the "Coke joke" perfectly, best timing I ever saw.
absofuckinglutely !!-
like Derren Brown, he completes a circle everytime he speaks!-
-what an incredible artistic genius!-
- DC is the 👌
What is the coke joke about?
@@rkh7360 Dave said Jon was first to be there when he needed a celebrity for his movie about weed Half Baked. Dave said he appreciated it because he thought he was a coke guy. It's a really clever home and it setup the second come joke.
It's beautiful because it's unscripted and was just natural
@@DerrickBest Dont trust Dave when he says he didnt prepare anything. xD
@@clintfischer1057 Like you know...come on, sad.
I can’t with the “you know what I mean? Yuck” gets me every time 😂😂😂
That truly was the most articulate, heartfelt tribute I've ever heard a celebrity speak towards another... Gratitude, true friendship and loyalty are virtues which are priceless
This guy’s clarity of mind is incredible. I feel like people get lost in their thoughts when they have something to say about a person or a topic but Dave can always speak straight through and touch as many points as possible along the way.
And he uses that clarity to be transphobic.
Dave Chapelle is such an accurate social commentator-and Jon Stewart is truly a legend-begging some VERY necessary questions in our society! Bless You and Dave Chappelle!
@@MarkoArillius his special the closer was literally dedicated to his trans friend lol
That's the power of a prepared speech. Its why we expect those in charge to sound competent

Ive watched it 3x in a row rn lol i love it. It makes me so happy. Ty for ur comment and have a great day
Ssme!
He tied in all of the speeches of all other comedians that night, put them into context so people would get it, and he did it so beautifully well. I thank God that I've seen some amazing people in my lifetime, Dave Chapelle being one of the greatest of them all.
He said, “ I cannot put into words how much I love and respect you.” Yes sir, Mr Chappelle, you just did! Great speech 🎤
Yes that was awesome.
Dave Chappelle's intellect shines through in this tribute. Like him or not, he is incredibly intelligent and has nurtured that intelligence.
AGREE!!!
yea but he lied about not having prepared a speech though 🤥🤡
@@yitto4965 a comic lied??? NOOOOO!!!!
Yeahhhhhes super smart
I think wise is more apt. An incredibly comforting soul, Was so happy to get to see him in CO a couple months back.
Couldn't love this any more. Two absolute legends deserving of their status. Heroes in the entertainment industry.
What an unbelievable story teller and public speaker. GOAT.
“You are a cure to what ails our culture”…….a priceless statement to an indispensable man...
A cure? Jon Steward is one of those "all white people are racist" that sold his soul to a company to remain relevant and ultra rich. He's everything wrong with out corrupt culture, where money/fame > everything else.
And sadly he did a shite Apple woke shiteshow
@@businesswalks8301 In the context of comedy or being a comedian, the "culture" is how this artform is being performed and consumed. It's ailing because the artists are conforming to wokeness and Noam Chomsky's depiction of manufactured consent, to mention just a couple.
@@businesswalks8301 No one is handing out permissions for Chappelle to do whatever, I think you got that way wrong. And here I was thinking you didn't understand what he was referring to...
@@businesswalks8301 and ain't that what his Fanbase loves about him? The fact that he talks a lot about contemporary issues? The funny part opinion you can keep it to yourself. That nigga is certified hilarious!
Dave...how can one man be so hilariously funny yet soberingly eloquent. He makes it look effortless. Had me tearing up
The honest answer is that Chapelle is incredibly smart. He doesn't have a bunch of fancy degrees, but his emotional intelligence is off the chain. His mother was a teacher, and clearly taught him a lot about life.
He can also excel in dramatic work also.
@@KS-xk2so correct!
The more I hear Mr. Chappelle speak, the more I become convinced that he is an absolute genius, and will go down as one of the greatest comedians *and* greatest thinkers of our time.
👊🏾 my thoughts exactly!
This will be a history made Mark Twain tribute speech, Dave's delivery and timing is priceless congratulations John Stewart u are one of the greatest 👍
Not for nothing do many call Dave the GOAT! The timing, the oratory, the language, the humor, the philosophy, and most of all the genuineness of how Dave came across - PERFECT!
@@businesswalks8301 To one with passable knowledge of the English language, there is absolutely no confusion, that oratory & philosophy, by definition, are are two completely different things, and can be effectively used in a single sentence. However, to quell your confusion,
Oratory, Is the art or skill of powerful and effective public speaking.
Philosophy, on the other hand, is the study of ideas and beliefs about the meaning of life.
Both of which Dave chappelle demonstrated with finesse.
@@businesswalks8301 man I bet you”re fun at parties? Get some friends kid

@@businesswalks8301 ohhhh, the ownership you were just subjected to!
@@businesswalks8301 your confused guy, you need to stop while you been just taught because you were not persuaded by his factual definitions.

Respect is the first step in betterment for yourself. Live & learn till you die...if you want to fully appreciate life or stay in your hole..having fun with yourself...that's cool too..to each his own.
Dave is like the best story teller ever... the growth of this man from his early days as a comedian really needs to be studied.

Reminds me of Carlin's growth as a comedian.
Just when I think Dave Chappelle might say something cringy he surprises me again with his genuine love and kindness towards people. I’m becoming more and more of a fan of his
I don't think I have ever sat at home by myself and clapped my hands along with the audience before. -- And I didn't feel silly ... I can't stress enough how Jon Stewart is an American treasure.
Dave has incredible timing. A great quality about that guy is he isn't afraid to show his human side when the camera is on. He's not the 100mph comedian cracking a joke every 2 seconds because he feels he needs to. He is rock solid.
He will randomly show up to standup clubs and do hours with no material. He is a master.
Amen to that!
timing.... it's the one thing you can't teach.
Hey! Did you know God is three in one!? The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit! Bless him!
Jesus died for our sins, rose from the dead, and gives salvation to everyone who has faith in him! True faith in Jesus will have you bear good fruit and *drastically* change for the better!
Have a blessed day, everyone!! ❤
Your worries (yes, anxiety), depression, suicidal thoughts, EVERYTHING will melt away and be NO MORE when you lean on God and put your trust in him! When I have physical pain, I literally pray and the Lord quells it, that I am healed!!
Know that there is power in the name Jesus Christ! His name casts out demons and heals! People are bothered by his name. The world hates the truth and wants to continue living sinfully! God's children are set apart (holy) and righteous.
Dave's story telling + stage presence is really topnotch. He can give a heartfelt speech to a dear friend but still keeps reminding everyone what's he really good at.
Dave is a master of keeping an audience hanging on his every word.
This young woman got prégnant twice in one week krplus.net/bidio/eqykoJp-inq-iZQ
That was an appreciate speech with some stand up 🤣
He's the goat

That was beautiful. Very heart felt. I'm glad Jon is being recognized for his excellentness..
My goodness... dave's public speaking skills are way off the charts
Jon and Dave. Two masters of their crafts who are brutally honest right when the world needs them to be. This is awesome to see.
Jon had me right up until the woke shit
These comedians don't speak for pos people like you two. I promise you they would both despise you
@@polish2x91 What does woke mean?
@@ChiChi-jg1ch a type of liberal politics that prioritizes representation over policy
@@polish2x91 so he had you till like 25 years ago?
12 minutes ago I had never even heard of this award. That being said, this has to be one of the most genuine congratulatory speeches I have ever heard. DC is just so raw, and it’s always great
Same here! The beautiful relationship he has with Jon Stewart should be what America looks like.
The video is only 8 and half min long.
Man you have to watch dave accepting speech for the same award. have to.
I only knew it existed when Eddie Murphy won lol
If that's the case, you should search and watch Dave's acceptance speech from when he won it.
Hearing Jons laugh over everyone is wholesome as hell
I knew Dave and Jon were friendly but I didn't know they were actually friends. This is awesome.
Dave Chappelle is one of the greatest orators of our generation. Beautiful articulate language just effortlessly pours out of this man.
Holy shit I just said the same thing above before seeing your post. 100% agree, Cuz!
Dave’s mom was a teacher, and I see that in him. The scary thing is I think he’s still ascending. He keeps getting better.
What makes Dave such a great comedian isn't simply that he's funny. It's that he's smart as a whip, and has a knack for eloquently relaying his sophisticated worldview in a simple and relatable manner. It's incredible to watch.
he loves the money
@@gregbester3855 not a Christian huh, just a human parrot on repeat...or monkey see monkey do..those teo words are polar opposites in meaning, your showing a high level of childhood ignorance & disrespect..to yourself & others.
“Younger comics do what I call, ‘wokes,’ they’re not jokes. They don’t know the difference between a good point and a good joke.” I don’t think I’ve heard a better description of the problems of contemporary comedy than this. Damn. Thank you, Mr. Chappelle.
I think the problem with woke, is that it's the same with incredibly conservative comedy, and it lacks any sort of self awareness. Dave Chappelle can put a lens on his life and just earnestly make fun of himself. Something the woke and conservative crowd can't do
@@chrism8860 Yeah, I agree. I don’t consider just making “good points” funny, unless they’re…uh…funny. Then it’s great. All good. I see “funny” too often replaced by “good opinions” these days. Too often, a comedian is lauded for opinions even if they’re not funny. Not comedy to me. Funny is funny. I also hate the hypocrisy of laughing at stuff that you agree with but then calling for the cancellation of someone you don’t agree with, even if they’re really funny.
Self derision is always the safest form of comedy. Its what made Louis CK famous, and if you watch Ricky Gervais' FIRST Golden Globes then they were mostly self derision. You can't go wrong with that because if you make fun of yourself, you can't get offended.
The reality is that what is 'off limits' right now is essentially what you'd call 'vindictive comedy', which is stuff that should have been off limits ages ago. Actually, it usually was. You can actually still do 'generality' jokes, virtually nobody complains if you make jokes at the expense of politicians. Go watch a Bill Hicks or George Carlin act and it still holds up just fine. You can still do silly british style humour so basically what is out of line are the low hanging fruit that has always made for pretty bad comedy. Its the people who are infatuated with identity politics and want to make jokes about it that suffer, and frankly they weren't funny anyway. Its not like there is any lack of subject to base humour on. When comedians do that, they are essentially going for the easy crowd appeal, like when they walk into Denver and say its the greatest city in the world or that Boulder sucks. There has ALWAYS been stuff off limits, hell, go ask Leenny Bruce.
@@mikearchibald744Literally every single joke ever made is at someone else’s expense, even if that someone is the joke-teller themselves. Unless one has never laughed at a joke in their life, they have no leg to stand on when they criticize others for “laughing at someone else’s expense.” One should never be able to get away with that hypocrisy. No person is more special than the other in comedy, and I find it condescending and patronizing that liberal whites think that certain kinds of people are too fragile and weak to be made fun of. Bullshit.
Andrew schultz I'd the first name that came to my head, when I read this
Absolutely touching speech. I can feel the love and respect they have for each other. True friendship.
I taught public speaking for 15 years. If that was, indeed, totally extemporaneous, it is one of the most remarkable speeches I have ever heard. Perfect timing, flawless transitions, nary a *like*, *uhm*, or *you know*. And the sentiments: so authentic, so poignant, so heartfelt. Truly remarkable.
Well shit he's been doing it for a good majority of his life. I imagine it comes as breathing does to a normal person.
That's why we call him the goat :)
He made it look effortless.
It WAS remarkable. But I don't see how it cold have been extemporaneous, what with all the built-in cutaways to film clips.
@@janblount exactly. Saying he didn't prepare a speech was his first joke. Haha.... I guess that fact went over some people's heads.
Dave was freestyling and still manage to have a tie-in punchline at the end. LEGEND.
He wasn't actually freestyling, but it was a great speech.
@@Blaisem ...as in he didn't read off a script.
@@plzzz He memorized a script. This is how comedians prepare their acts. It's not freestyling.
@@Blaisem Honestly I don't think he had a script. Not saying he didn't prepare his jokes beforehand but I think he had some points he wanted to talk about and filled in the blanks on the fly
He wasn't freestyling. They had pictures and clips ready to cut to during the speech. That was planned.
Jesus. That was the most amazing speech and tribute to friendship I've ever heard.
"You are a cure to what ails our culture"....very well said. The Daily Show truly weeded through the shit storm and gave us some of our sanity back
Woke up and saw Dave Chapelle and Jon Stewart, expecting a laugh. Instead, we have this truly emotional and honest tribute.
But still lots of laughs, Dave and Jon are masters of giving heartfelt speeches about serious topics and still manage to make them funny.
Still had a little bit of laughter tho, was perfect.
*Chappelle
Perhaps the only time you hear woke in a positive sense about Chapelle
Dave's mastery of the Art of Public Speaking has always left me in awe. His ability to capture the attention of millions of people is just amazing. This is the tenth time I am watching this plus his acceptance speech in 2019.
2024 and I am still picking alot of pointers from these two videos.
"People like Jon made me feel safer. He's a friendly guy." - this is the true hero fighting for our country. lol - he's a great hero too.
Two men who have transcended comedy to become a sort of lighthouse to rally around and to guide us to safety in our blackest nights. They have both given so much to our culture, beliefs, and reminded us what it means to be an American.
I would only change "blackest" to darkest. Exceptional comment otherwise, beautiful and succinct.
Man that’s a great post. Exceptionally well said Frederick.
@@pigslave3 I laughed, liked your comment & I agree.
Yes, his visible Anti-Semitism and Trans-phobia has united American Bigots everywhere.
Respect. Well articulated sir
Seeing two adult men, of different races and backgrounds, share such genuine affection for one another is beautiful. I hate that this is what I'm thinking about while watching this tribute - but I can't help wishing this for the world. Chapelle and Stewart were my twenties. I couldn't have asked for a better comedy duo.
WTF does race have to do with ANY of this. Yeah you definitely voted for Biden. Only morons still think people getting along is some new phenomenon.
Yeah, next time don't mention the races. Why would it even be worth mentioning? Because some people are fools? Nah man. It's not worth mentioning.
@@daveogfans413, I would rather acknowledge it, respect it, and love it than be someone who is too terrified to discuss it. Why is it worth mentioning? Gee, I don't know... Could be the centuries long wealth inequality perpetuated along racial lines that has largely kept the white and black communities from co-existing peacefully in America. Or the continued attempts by conservatives to overthrow our government and to rain down terror on minority communities. Yeah. That alone makes it worth mentioning because it is FAR outside the norm. And when it is a norm maybe I won't feel compelled to think about it or comment on it. FFS.
@@lllCTHULHUlll Just stop man. Morgan freeman said it best- (how do we stop racism) "stop talking about it" why is there a black history month but not white/jewish/mexican/asian/ etc. American history is every person in america from the begining of its inception and it is all of our history. Some are bad some are worse than others, but we are where we are at today and talking about who had it worse gets us nowhere. We are at the present and too many people get fed to hate eachother through media. Lets all vote for someone that isnt 100 years old and fix all of this bullshit.
@@Redeyez2424, yes, not talking about problems is a proven effective strategy. 🙄 We'll just pretend things don't happen. Because the popular adage is, "Those who ignore everything happening around them and don't have honest discussions about systemic issues are headed for success." I thought it was, "Those who do not learn history are doomed to repeat it." Brilliant advice. Thanks.
I've actually never thought I'd tear up from one of these, but it felt impossible not to towards the end. A truly heartfelt speech to a close friend
Nothing can be the sincerity of a real and present connection - knowing the person of whom you speak!
It's obvious how these two guys love and respect each other. Dave is such an amazing storyteller and orator. Another thing I noticed is how much John's wife laughed and enjoyed herself throughout. Having a partner in life who shares the same sense of humor and way of looking at life is invaluable, and I am sure has heavily contributed to how grounded, real, funny, intelligent, and genuine the guy is.
I agree 💯
I love Dave, luckily as a 17 year old male he felt safe around Jon in a disturbing industry and world where 17 year olds are always in an extremely vulnerable position. Too bad Alicia Silverstone can't share that same experience with Jon....Makes you see him totally different. Go check out that interview to see the real Jon, absolutely sick.
My imagination, at its best, is being his wife for a day. Opened her dream rescue with his full support. Love it!
@@youtubepremiumaccount4063 I saw that Interview that You suggested that We check out, and Jon Stewart was on the borderline of being, as You have called it 'Pervy'. Jon did not make advances toward Alicia at all when I saw that clip, and If He really wanted to, He could have gone truly 'Pervy' and behaved like that Serious XM* 'Shock Jock' Howard Stern and then You would see what being 'Pervy' really looks like! I have even read Comments on KRplus* that have accused Jon and MTV* for sexualizing that moment in the clip where Alicia held up Her Leg to make a Cracking Sound under the Boom Mike that was lowered for Her (Her 'Leg Crack' was barely noticable), and Jon followed Her lead and held up His Leg and Cracked it also (You can unmistakengly hear the Loud Cracking Sound His Leg gave off!). I must also remind You that Alicia rose to Fame using Her Good Looks, so She was definitely well aware of how Hyper-Sexualized Hollywood was, and still is Today. Who knows, with better representation, Alicia's Career would most likely be in a better place right now. It's good to know that over time, and with more Women in charge becoming Producers, Writers and Directors, that Shift in Power for Women in Hollywood is changing in Their favor so now They can decide how They want to be seen in the Media, instead of going by the Old-School Mindsets from Ever-Horny Males of how They think Women should be seen only as Sex Objects. (P.S.: Just so You know, this is written by a Male!)
@@bakersupreme2010I appreciate the attentiveness and attention span you have clearly stretching quite a bit beyond what most people(specifically Americans) can claim. To your points though, it wasn't as much about what he said, as it was the way he said it. She said "I'm 17" and he very awkwardly responded with "coool"...With a strange awkward pause and smile after clearly making her immediately uncomfortable. I mean everyone in the room knew why he said that. Whether it was more about the silence after or the comment itself is irrelevant to me, as I PERSONALLY see that as creep 101. What's so "cooool" about her being 17 and glaring at her akwardly after that for a good 5 seconds? Why was that a moment worth making? Let her answer that she's a minor, maybe show that you're impressed in what she's achieved so young, then move on. But no he proceeded to do that, and then show her in the Aerosmith video where she was inherently sexualized by the group(would hope you wouldn't disagree with that as they actually got in trouble for that, I belive by either hers or the other teenage girl who appeared in the videos parents). Do you have the answers my good sir?
In an age of cynicism, old trusted friends are still one of the best ways to defy the darkness. Beautiful.
likewise - your words here.
That’s beautiful
Was a beautiful speech. Ive listened to this three times so far. Growing up with dave and jon; i never knew they were such great friends.
A cure to what ails our culture. Beautiful tribute from Chappelle.
That was truly beautiful. And John Stewart deserves it.
Dave can carry an audience in the palm of his hand. His speaking ability is better than anyone I’ve seen in a long time. Those were some of the kindest things to say about a friend and of course the recipe wouldn’t have been complete without a little comedy mixed in for flavor.
We love you Dave (GOAT)
"I am not here because I love Jon, I am here because he loves me". Some thought that was a joke but it wasn't, it was a nice complement to Jom
Miss both these talented people. Beautiful speech. ❤
I don’t think a lot of people caught that last line “I’m your lucky lead in” referring to when the Chapelle show was the lead in for Jon’s show back then. Absolutely beautiful.
Seeing Jon and Dave get emotional talking about each other...pure gold
Dave is one of the greatest storytellers of this generation. Great tribute.
WOW...I'm all teary eyed
Wow…Dave Chappelle. That was one of the greatest unprepared speeches I’ve ever heard. Brought a tear to my eye.
Chapelle is probably one of the most genuine and gifted orators of the day...can connect with a gangster, a priest, a stripper, and a coke dealer in one swoop... This is such a well-deserved reward for Jon Stewart. I remember getting the most impactful news of the day feeling like there was hope through the chaos. Even when it was so dark, there was a reason to smile and laugh at the absolute absurdity of the human race MEANING that there was hope if even briefly. Thank you Jon!
Chapelle was the goat back in the day, but now I don't find him funny anymore. I used to have so much respect for him but after I found out he was a terf and a nimby idk
I agree with you…
I’d prolly throw Jamie Foxx in there as well.
I didn't vote for Obama the first time (was 18... voted 3rd party)... BUT I DID the second time. Obama is still one of the most amazing orators alive. He's gifted at it, even when I didn't like him (or 'trust' him, from limited experience)-- I always saw and said he was a GIFTED orator.
@@a.s.h.5774 he was and still is an incredible orator. I think it was interesting though towards the end of his term he use "Ah" a lot as a filler word though.
All the skits and people who also were on the daily show too, it was kind of an institution for new comics to try things out and all of them landed many gigs after the Daily Show. I really miss that time when John was the only one doing political humor. Now it's just so cringe.
This video has been viewed more times than Jon's own acceptance speech. Tells you something about DC's incredible story telling ability
Stewart is just ok. Any decent entertainer could've done his job with great writers. Seeing him without them and he's just a regular, kinda funny dude.
Wow!! Dave is the greatest for sure!!
Cannot compare the greatest comedian ever to No One Alive at the moment maybe in the future.
