I’m Jewish. I wanted the punchline had an exorcism but I couldn’t get it to work. And then I didn’t want “…not a psychiatrist”. The idea is that the doctor doesn’t believe at all that it’s an actual medical problem.
Somehow a 1950s Catskills comedian does some topical 2024 standup.
“So a man goes to the doctor with a problem.”
“Man says 'Ya gotta help me, doc. My head hurts. I’m very frustrated that the CIA isn’t blaming Russia for my symptoms.”
"Doctor says ‘I’m very familar with that. I’ve got something I can recommend.’ "
"Man says ‘Thank you so much.’ And the doctor gives him a business card for the Interfaith Help Center.
“Man says ‘What the heck is this?’ rudely.”
"Doctor says ‘I’m a doctor. Not a rabbi.’ "
I’m gonna have to ask you to explain the joke to me, because it sounds sketchy as shit
