On this episode of GoodOnePodcast, RealGilbert discusses all things Aristocrats

Gilbert Gottfried Photo: Vulture and Comedy Central Whether he likes it or not, Gilbert Gottfried is one of the few performers who truly exemplifies the term “comic’s comic.” He has one special and is remembered primarily for voice-overs such as Iago in Aladdin, but in comedy circles, he’s a legend. He appears in documentaries and has documentaries made about him , but he’s never enjoyed the mainstream success found by some of his peers like Jerry Seinfeld and Larry David.

It makes sense, then, that the joke Gilbert is best known for isn’t one that he wrote — if you could say anyone “wrote” it in the first place — the Aristocrats. That’s because of both the way he tells it, which is grosser and more wide-reaching than other comics’ renditions, and when he told it — at the Hugh Hefner roast, after telling a 9/11 joke soon after the attacks and losing the audience “bigger than anybody has ever lost an audience.

The trick is not to repeat yourself too much. So if you say, “And then they bring out a monkey, and it fucks you in the ass.” You got to at least change it to a kangaroo. Or a robot. Doesn’t have to be living.I don’t think so. I wasn’t planning on telling it that night. Famously, the Hugh Hefner roast took place a few days after September 11th. You were the closer and the first comic to address the attacks. Why did you?

I don’t know. Maybe I’m self-destructive, maybe I’m just plain stupid. But if someone tells me don’t do something, then I want to do it. I’ve always said tragedy and comedy are roommates. Wherever tragedy’s around, comedy’s a few feet behind them sticking his tongue out and making obscene gestures. When you go to a funeral, the guy at the podium will say embarrassing stories about the guy in the box, and people will laugh.
