Achmed: greetings, infidels.
Please welcome jeff dunham!
Thank you so much, thank you very much.
Yes, thank you very much.
And unless i'm hallucinating, welcome to the jeff dunham show.
Now, a lot of folks have been wondering
What this show's going to be.
Well, for those of you who know what i do for a living,
You've seen me and the guys on tv,
You've seen us on the comedy central specials,
Maybe on the dvds,
But you've, you've only heard us talk
About what we do off the stage.
You've never really seen it,
So what we decided to do for our tv show is
We took the little guys out in the real world,
Real life, real situations with real people,
And we saw what would happen
And that's what you're going to watch tonight.
So the first guy that's going to help me this evening has been
A friend for many, many years.
Let's hope he's in a good mood tonight.
Please help me welcome my old friend walter.
(Cheering and applause)
Oh, my lord.
Will you please shut the hell up?
What's wrong with you? Nothing.
Are you serious?
Well, you have your own television show?
Yeah, you know why?
Yeah. Youtube couldn't take it anymore?
(Laughter)
That wasn't very nice.
Seriously, they'll give anyone a show nowadays.
What makes you say that?
Read my lips.
The jeff dunham show.
(Laughter)
Holy crap, what has happened to this world?
You're on tv, there's a black guy in the white house.
(Laughter)
I quit.
Come on, walter...
I have lived too frickin' long now.
Do you always have to be so negative?
Yeah.
You know, you realize we're doing it again.
What? We're arguing.
No, we're not. Yeah...
No. Yeah...
No. Yes, we are.
Whatever. And remember where we learned not to do that?
(Sighs)
At the therapist.
So what brings you here today?
I'm here
'Cause grandpa touched my hoo-Hoo-Dilly.
Can we go now?
Walter and i
Never agree on anything,
And comedy central is afraid that it's affecting the show,
So they asked us to come see... Specifically... You.
Walter, i'm gonna start with you, since you seem
To be having a little more difficulty here.
Well, thank you.
What are two things you like about jeff?
I got nothing.
Okay.
What are two things you dislike about jeff?
Oh, that he's a (bleep).
Okay.
He's a (bleep), and what else?
You said... I can't believe
The therapist actually said (bleep).
That's interesting because
If it sounded really awful when i said it,
I'm wondering if you're aware
Of how kind of disruptive and disrespectful it sounded
When you said it.
Nope.
Walter, do you and your wife talk a lot?
I never talk to my wife like this.
What, are you nuts?
Hmm, maybe she doesn't share with you
For the same reason jeff... what about your wife?
You talk to her like that?
I share very personal things with my partner, yes.
Oh.
You mean wife.
Are you trying to ask me if i'm married?
Well, yeah, i assumed you're married.
You're married, right?
I am married. Oh, good.
I'm married to a man.
What?
I'm married to a man.
You're... married, uh, to a man?
Man. Man?
Man. Man.
Did you know? No.
No, we didn't know.
Are you a counselor to, to gay couples?
I do counsel gay couples.
Do y-You think that...
We're gay?
Well, walter, if you were, i think you should be very proud
That you were able to get yourself
A younger, handsome man.
Holy crap.
Dunham: walter, why did you just get up
And leave?
I told you we shouldn't have come to hollywood.
This is what they do here.
Everyone thinks we're gay.
No one thinks we're gay.
Then why did they send us to a gay therapist?
It was just a coincidence.
Besides, i would never want to be gay with you.
Yeah, you got that right.
I never want to read the kama sutra while sitting on your lap.
Right. -I never want
To slow-Dance with you to lionel richie's "hello."
And i would never want to go
To a place called the manhole with you.
I never want to taste you in the morning.
Walter, do you see what we're doing here?
What?
We're agreeing.
We are? Well, yeah.
We're agreeing that we'd never want to be gay with each other.
Oh, my god, you're right.
(Grunting)
(Toilet flushes)
Walter: dr. Young, you're a genius.
You used the fact that we didn't want
To be gay with each other to bring us closer.
You're like a gay yoda. (Dr. Young chuckles)
I've never heard it put that way, walter, but thank you.
Thanks, dr. Young.
Do i look fat in this vest?
(Applause and cheering)
You know what the saddest part about that was? What?
We were trying to convince everyone we're not gay,
But we're hanging out in a bathroom
With a whole camera crew of men.
(Chuckles)
Well, wal... -Don't touch me.
Ah...
We'll be right back.
Achmed: coming up next... Me, achmed.
Holy crap, i look great in hd.
And peanut tries to do it with a celebrity.
Plus, bubba j gets surprised,
Which frankly is not very difficult.
Don't change the channel, or your remote will explode.
(Achmed cackles)
Well, we're back, and i think you all know
Achmed the dead terrorist.
(Crowd cheering)
So, achmed, is there anything you want to say to the crowd?
Silence!
Uh...
(Cheering and laughter)
Wait for it.
I keel you!
(Crowd cheering)
That is fantastic.
I feel like freaking rod stewart.
Let's do it all together.
One, two, three.
Achmed & crowd: i keel you!
(Chuckles)
(Singsongy): they're talking to you.
So, achmed, how are you liking los angeles?
Oh, i do not like living in this city.
Why? -There are no morals in this city.
Really? -The only virgins left here
Are the jonas brothers.
(Laughter)
So that makes los angeles the perfect place
For me to launch my latest project.
(Laughing maniacally)
Male announcer: he's one of the most feared people on the planet.
One of the fbi's most wanted terrorists.
And now he's coming to kill you.
Hi-Yo!
Announcer: with comedy!
(Muttering silly gibberish)
The economy is so bad, i had to sell my goat.
Now if i want sex, i have to do it with my wife.
(Laughter) announcer: that's right. Achmed,
The dead terrorist, is blowing up the comedy world
With his new standup dvd:
I kill you? I kill me!
72 virgins?
Frankly, i'd be happier with two vietnamese chicks
Who know their way around the (bleep).
Announcer: if you would like your jokes delivered by a dead guy
With a turban, this dvd's for you!
So, any jews here tonight?
(Achmed giggles, crowd cheering) oh, really?
Okay, skip that bit.
Announcer: he does relationship humor.
My wife complained i left the toilet seat up,
So i sold her.
Announcer: he does topical.
I mean, is it really an instant message?
Announcer: he does impressions.
I am not a muslim.
Dawg.
Announcer: he works the crowd.
Sir, what do you do?
I'm an accountant.
You know you've got a bad job
When the dead terrorist is, like,
"Thank god i'm not you!"
Announcer: and who can forget his famous routine:
"You might be a terrorist if."
If you like living in a cave,
You might be a terrorist.
If you sometimes go...
(Ululating)
Audience: you might be a terrorist.
(Laughs)
Announcer: act now and get tons
Of great bonus material,
Including achmed's infamous heckler incident.

Oh, pretty good.
I have been performing at the kabul chuckle dungeon.
(Laughter)
The kabul chuckle dungeon?
Yes. Every thursday is ladies night.
Really?
You got to trade in a lady for a drink.
Walter calls it "whores for heinekens."
(Laughter)
No?
Hooters for shooters?
(Laughter)
Virgins for vodka?
(Laughter)
Skanks for screwdrivers?
(Laughter) achmed!
(Laughs) thank you. I'll be here all week.
I wonder if dunham is gonna go nuts like chappelle.
I heard africa is nice this time of year.
Peanut: coming up next, me, peanut,
Surfing the skanky waters of the l.A. Dating scene.
Plus, the genius lures a guy into bed.
Well, a truck bed.
It's complicated.

How you doing, peanut?
I'm doing pretty good. How about you?
I'm fine. -That's good. That's good. That's gooood!
