  1. He is funny!!

  2. Great clean video, charming doctor to boot!

  3. So proud of you!!!

  4. Where in Florida? I need a new primary care doctor. – Bob

  5. "Why are the waiters arguing?" rofl!!

  6. What an enjoyable set!! Was feeling down but this made me feel better 🙂

  7. Vien is a great comedian. He's so right about Florida too.

  8. why does he has an accent?

  9. I once asked a therapist why he switched to that from general practice medicine and he said he liked the idea of a career where no one expected concrete results. I was his patient when he told me this and it made me trust him more because I knew he was comfortable being totally honest with me

  10. Funny examples, but so true in real life.

  11. funnie I like him …and changing my pass word

  12. Once I was invited to international event in Vientiane (capital of Laos) and German guy asked a Lao lady near me to bring something, I looked at him, she is my wife.

  13. To be fair, your name is legitimately exotic in America, and Bob means Robert (but more friendly). You may still need an English class, Doc.

  14. @DarknoorX says:

    He's good.

  15. Dear sir. Oh my You are hysterical. Luv u. Keep on going!! Spaghetti model!!!!! More of that!!

  16. @nemo227 says:

    This dude is funny. Good stuff.

  17. What a talented guy

  18. Really funny stuff. Thank you

  19. the schools keep kids with foreign parents in ESL/bilingual classes because they get federal funding that they then use to cover other budget gaps.

  20. @Emigol973 says:

    LOL. My spaghetti model says he should pursue this full time

  21. Thompson Timothy Miller Jennifer Perez Daniel

    Asian parents (most of them) told their kids that you HAVE to be a doctor, an engineer, a lawyer….first then you can do whatever you want. Education is very important in the Asian families.

  23. His last joke was the best!

  24. GOOD STUFF !!!

  25. Sout yord…. I love your comedy….

  26. Second cousin to this: As an employee of a large state school, I used to take various foreign language classes in their Evening College. In every single one, the majority of the students were people who already spoke that language at home. They were taking the class for the easiest possible credit. Given that these were always immersion classes, all they had to do was go to class and speak the language they would have been speaking at home anyway. The German class was full of German speakers. The Spanish class was full of Spanish speakers. The Japanese class was full of Japanese speakers. And on and on and on.

  27. Taylor Patricia Brown Helen Hall Paul

  28. Thompson Ruth Garcia William Lewis Edward

  29. Harris Jason Anderson Patricia Miller Mark

  30. My name is Frances Denise. I have always gone by Denise, and have no idea who Frances is. While staying with a family in Japan, I was called Frances because it is the first name on my passport. No amount of explaining that I did not go by that name made a bit of difference; so I am Frances in Japan. Then I spent a month in Taiwan. I tried once again to be Denise, but I once again failed. I am Dennis is Taiwan.

  31. As a Floridian, always trust the European spaghetti model over the American….

  32. It’s a meh for me. I understand the effort. Typical Asian don’t have have a funny bone. This is like 3rd or 4th ASIAN doctor/comedian combo i come across now.

  33. Lee Laura Moore David Allen Jason

  34. He kinda looks like Hirohito!

  35. Martin Kimberly Davis Shirley Martinez Kenneth

  36. I consider myself lucky that my mom drilled Japanese into me, can’t read it though.

  37. Im Laotian n English was my only language growing up. In my mid 30's i married my 2nd x-wife who is lao so i learned to speak laos. Im often asked from other Laotians if im Thai-dia? guess i speak with an accent, the 1st time someone asked me this question i answered proudly n confidently… im not Thai im laos lol. I smile inside every time this question comes up.

  38. He nailed all the r///acist and stereotypical Asian beliefs.

  39. I feel like more people are more racist in 2024 than they were in 1978. If you know, you know.

  40. Vien is very funny. Instead of the spaghetti model, maybe he could describe surgery using a Vien diagram.

    A DOCTOR DOES STANDUP COMEDY……….. I have seen everything

  42. @blogusvox says:

    When you're a doctor and moonlights as a stand up comic; you got a profession and a vocation.

  43. … I wish that "WEREN'T" true …
    … You need English as 3rd class …

  44. @FactStorm says:

    Vien is awesome! Straightforward, lucid, funny, and pragmatic. You can tell he's highly intelligent!

  45. Too funny. Love him.

  46. How do you confuse a Lationan doctor. Tell him you want a spagetti modell of your operation

  47. Phommachanh Surname Meaning – Laotian: Ornamental name composed of the Lao elements phom ma "the absolute deity" and chanh "moon" …

  48. Ah what a great set!! His patients are so lucky to have a doctor with such a great personality 😀

  49. Great set – both the material and the delivery. I could easily listen to a set like this for multiple hours.

  50. Isnt Lao Ocean next to the Indians Ocean?

  51. Reminds me of Junior High where I purposefully fucked up my English exam to be put in the beginner's class instead of the advanced one. Good times lol

  52. @kce023 says:

    Your last name actually means virgin lol

  53. is he a doctor ?

  54. Almost all of (Filippino/Vietnamese/SKorean)Americans are more American than European Americans themselves. Meaning, they are ultra Zio***s c***s

  55. Lol, I never heard of the way the US pronounce Laotian. Lay – ocean. Hilarious!

  56. @vuho2075 says:

    When I go to an Asian restaurant and people ask me to bring them food, I would say "Yes sir," and bring them food

  57. I had a best friend who was Laotian, to this day I can’t spell her name. One of Funniest people I know.

  58. @newgabe09 says:

    that was great. actually laughed.

  59. Great set of joke.

  60. He is good, maybe part time doctor inspiring comedian and you might get your parents to laugh.

  61. Hai I would like to find some good genuine helping mentality friends to improve my english communication and confidence level. Would there be anyone here to help me out. I need an english speaking partner…

  62. @vuho2075 says:

    I would just help the people out and get them a Coke. Don't argue

  63. @kiras3180 says:

    "Very strong"

  64. My immigrant wife speaks better English than I do. She constantly (and lovingly) corrects my grammar.

  65. @Dah42 says:

    Wow, what a talented comedian! I had never heard of a man who was both- a doctor and a comedian.

  66. Thai fan is here. Thai and Loa names are similar. You are funny!

  67. This happened to a buddy of mine in high school. He had a Vietnamese name and they put him in an ESL class. He only cared about cars, like all of us, so he played along because the class was so easy and he hated studying and reading literature books in the normal English class. We were all jealous!

  68. this guy is not funny
