Whenever I think back on the OJ trial, I always inevitably come back to this great set from Dana Carvey back in 1995. There are some moments in this 8 minute set that are positively belly busters... Sorry, I'm an idiot, and I can't imbed...

My brothers and I have been quoting that since it came out. One of my fave standups ever… barely ever run into anyone that knows of that one! |

Always loved that set. The Japanese guy immediately came to mind as soon as I saw "Dana Carvey" in your post. And the gravelly "What else did you ignoooore?" is still in the rotation of things I'll say to my idiot children and/or buddy from High School. |

Hahaha, there’s so much there…. His Johnnie Cochran impersonation…. “Why are we even having a trial? I’m gonna play a little jazz trumpet for y’all.” Ya honor’s a sexy man. If I was a gay man, I’d wanna have sex with ya honor…”

The main thing I remember from the trial besides Cochran's b******* is that judge Ito let all that s*** happen.

Well hope the Brown and Goldman families can finally have closure in their lives and move on. Sadly won't bring their loved ones back to them.

Man, I can’t quit watching every video possible on YouTube/netflix/etc. of OJ…. Man, he is such a complicated dude, IMO… And that case… crazy and we will never see anything like it again. It takes a special kind of ****ing crazy to kill someone… and this dude did it with a freaking knife. Two people with a freaking knife… gross. And this dude always held it together so well in interviews and publicized social situations as well as the football field and it’s wild that he was capable of that… considering he did it…
That whole racial divide thing they emphasize with this was something I didn’t even know was a thing when I was a kid and this was going on. I remember watching the verdict live as a 5th or 6th grader… I think the entire school checked in on it… I went to a tiny school in Smalltown-SE Iowa and I can only recall there being one black person at that school the entire 12 years I went there and that dude was 5 years younger than me…. And here’s what my experience was…. I was in a room for of white kids and white teachers and I can’t think of one person who wasn’t cheering the verdict because every kid including myself just didn’t think he was capable and didn’t believe he did it… Even the teachers were cheering… Not sure what their excuse was! And the last thing on my mind was that the nation would actually be divided over it in most places on the map because I just thought it was a murder case with OJ vs the bad guys like Marcia Clark who just were obvious sports-haters. Racism type stuff in general was something I really didn’t know anything about and never really thought about growing up because my dad was always against it and it was honestly pretty rare for us to ever see a black person in our region and circles we were part of (wrestling)….I kind of had to just learn via watching tv that there was a problem there…And then of course we learned about slavery in school and that obviously shed some light on why there are problems there. Haha, I dunno it’s just so interesting to watch now… my perspective was so different back then and it’s a different experience for me altogether watching all of these documentaries about it, now knowing there were some racial tensions with the case that my entire town seemed oblivious to when it was going on… |
