What I really appreciate about his comedy is how he blends humor with serious political stuff, like raising awareness about the genocide in Palestine. He makes you laugh but also think about what’s really going on.
One of the funniest moments was when Bassem showed up on Al-Bernameg wearing a ridiculously oversized version of the hat worn by then-President Morsi. It was his way of poking fun at the cult-like glorification of leaders, and it had the audience crying with laughter. It was clever, bold, and perfectly captured his fearless approach to call out politics in a fun way.
One of Bassem’s most memorable moments was when he brilliantly called out Western media for its biased reporting on Palestine. He compared how similar events were framed differently depending on who was involved, using humor to expose the hypocrisy. It wasn’t just funny—it was sharp, eye-opening, and delivered the kind of truth that stays with you long after the laughter fades.
‘Satire is the weapon of the powerless. It’s how we survive in a world that’s too absurd to be taken seriously.’ This quote from one of my favorite show, El bernameg perfectly captures how humor can challenge authority and highlight injustice, proving that laughter is sometimes the strongest form of resistance.
I think the best thing about Bassem’s comedy is that it reasonates with current affairs / geo-politics. I think his exchange with Ben Shapiro really stands out and Piers Morgan who gives as good as he gets
When he showed up in the to show lionesses
His interview on Piers Morgan show and his joke about his wife using her kids as human shield 😂

Bassem vs Piers Morgan interview.
I love his sense of humour as you can sense he’s very intelligent. His lines are very funny yet make you think 🤔 Bassem’s charisma is unmatched and I’d love to see him perform live
Cute. Redefining the word to convey our sheer frustration and deep rage allowed millions some catharsis.
