Comedian Rob Schneider's new Fox Nation special, "Woke Up in America," delivers a laugh-out-loud perspective on contemporary American life. The special, which premiered earlier this week, showcases Schneider's comedic talent as he tackles hot-button issues ranging from cultural clashes and COVID-19 regulations to personal anecdotes like his vasectomy and an encounter with Donald Trump.
Schneider emphasizes the importance of comedians who challenge censorship and "go against the grain" in today's comedic landscape. He shares his experience voting for Trump in California, joking about the abundance of mail-in ballots. He also recounts stories about working with Trump on the film "Home Alone 2," judging the 2008 Miss USA pageant, and a memorable appearance on "The Tonight Show" with Jay Leno, where a joke about Trump led to a humorous back-and-forth.
Schneider humorously addresses the influx of Californians to Florida, suggesting that Floridians can "mess with them" by offering them cheese, playing on the stereotype of Californians' vegan tendencies. He offers his own take on the definition of a woman, framing it within the context of relationship dynamics. He also satirizes the seemingly arbitrary COVID-19 protocols, highlighting the absurdity of restrictions on gyms and salons while allowing access to restaurants and stores.
Furthering the personal touch, Schneider shares an amusing anecdote about his wife's encounter with a scorpion in their Arizona desert home. He paints a vivid picture of desert life, complete with extreme heat and coyote encounters. "Woke Up in America" promises a night of laughter and thought-provoking commentary on modern American culture.
