He's not for everyone. His brand of comedy is very abnormal. There are not any big setups or punchlines. He's more about vibes, saying weird and random shite, and physical comedy.

I think it was a very odd choice for Tony to put him in as a regular, given all of the above. But so far, it seems like things have gone well.

I think he gets better over time. The first time you watch him its like watching an ADHD Jackrabbit but after a few sets you realize that he is pretty intentional with his words and very clever. I like him in this role.

But I do agree that he isn't for everyone and I wonder how his brand of comedy would do over an extended period. For 1 minute he can crab walk and pull out a picture and say something witty and it works but can he keep the audiences attention over 20-30 minutes, let alone an hour? Seems like he would need a little more substance than he gives in these sets. Maybe he has that and just keeps it for his real sets and just goofs around on KT since he knows he needs a new minute every week.
