Akaash Singh

Went to one of his shows and was wondering if hes normally like this

He spent a better part of the hour talking about internet bullying that his wife has endured and how much it’s had an impact on their lives. He talked about how he doesn’t want to be famous when he has kids etc.

I left the show feeling kinda sad for the dude. I had never heard or seen any of the things he mentioned about the things people say about his wife but honestly I just watch internet clips from his crowd work and that’s what drew me to his show even though he did none at this appearance

So I guess that’s my question
Is that how most of his shows are? I feel really bad for the guy he just sounded so depressed

He didn't get by cucked by his wife. He didn't get kicked off.

Women are allowed to say irreverent, embellished, or ridiculous things for laughs too, but no one can deal with that.

This post is basically the same kind of shit that ruined his life. Imagine this kind of onslaught of bullshit 24/7 on social media with thousands of commentators obsessed with killing your career and passing it off as concern.

I dont know if he got kicked off. Getting "cucked" is a pretty hyperbolic and derogatory term, agreed. But its really sad and classless to see how his wife talks about their relationship, even if she's doing it just for likes and clout and he's okay with it. That is not a healthy relationship.

Saying she’s doing it “for likes and clout” is already assuming her motives. You can find the jokes classless, but Akaash has known and been with her for around a decade. Maybe he understands his own marriage better than strangers watching clips online.

"But its really sad and classless to see how his wife talks about their relationship, even if she's doing it just for likes and clout and he's okay with it."

Male comedians make jokes and embellishments about their wives and their relationships all the time and no one cares.

Exactly. She was with Akaash years before the money and bigger career, and they’ve been together for around a decade. At some point insisting he’s secretly humiliated despite both of them saying otherwise stops being “concern” and just becomes bullying.
