New Jeselnik special on Netflix.

Not as good as Thoughts and Prayers, but still pretty great.

I had never watched thoughts and prayers, but did thanks to the posts on this page. “Who was it that said the first million was the hardest? Was it Hitler?” :lol:

Thanks, guys.

I can't believe you never saw that. Its so brilliant.

I have yet to watch his new one but I did see him on that tour in denver last year. It was good. Not mind blowing by any means....Will be interesting to see the standup and see how it may have evolved.

And i've never actually seen a comedian on tour while he was preparing for some sort of video release....

I was at Gervais’ Out Of England 2 taping at Chicago Theater. Saw Louis CK there the next night.

We saw Bobby Lee last month and he was so fucking great.

I don't understand why he refuses to do specials.

I saw him at the Comedy Store last year, he was pretty good. I thought his stage presence was some of the best of the night (including Patton Oswalt, Neal Brennan, and more A-listers), but didn't necessarily love his material.

If you're not talking about Jake Flores, the cumtown boys, and the red scare ladies arguing about whether Louis CK is a worker you're really not on the cutting edge of comedy.

The cutting edge of comedy sucks ass and I hate it btw

I thought the new Jeselnik on Netflix was horrible. After about 5 jokes, I was predicting every "twist" in his joke before he made it

Wholly agree. He’s just Dane Cook now.

Got tix for the Comedy Cellar this weekend. Michael Che and Greer Barnes are on the bill so far.

tragabigzanda · **Posted:** Mon July 01, 2019 3:53 pm

Went to the Cellar last night. Michael Che was the headliner, he was pretty good but also fairly drunk. Greer Barnes was my favorite; he did a lot of voice work, and a few minutes on gay horses that cracked me up. Also some short Norwegian guy who spoke with a really heavy accent was pretty good.

Rumors that Louis CK was gonna drop in (they took everyone’s phones), but it didn’t happen. Apparently Judd Apatow dropped in later that night, but I don’t find him funny so no big loss.

We had to fight our way through the Pride madness just to get there. Lots of freaks, lots of T&A. Fun journey in itself.

This is a ridiculous comparison.

Cook and Jeselnik have completely different deliveries, timing and personalities.

i think he means his relevance, popularity, and overall broski persona
