Theo Von Podcasts - smarter than expected

The episode with Rick Flair was great.

Love both of his specials on Netflix and the podcast clips I'd see on TikTok. The wife too. So we were pumped he came to Shreveport on his standup tour.

Worst standup I've ever been to. He was funny, even though it was almost all old jokes from his previous standup and podcast, but it had the oddest/most awkward moment ever.

Before he came out they said no yelling during his set. Well he had people cracking up and one time when the claps/laughter were dying down after a joke someone let out a "woo!" He kind of stops and says come one no yelling. A little later a similar situation happens and someone hollers "love you!". He stops and basically tells them/the audience that he will leave if it happens again and how pissed he was. A few people clap while he's doing this and he just sits there with his hands on his hips in silence. The whole theatre is silent. He starts pacing saying "come on man damn, come on." It felt like forever before he started his set back up. So freaking awkward.

He got back on track and at the end apologized for doing that. But the laughs had died down significantly after that. We were like yea those few people shouldn't have hollered out but it was an extreme overreaction that every comedian we've ever been to would not have blinked twice at, because they weren't that bad. Instead he scolded the audience like a parent to a little child. Not sure how a standup comedian could not expect something like that or worse to happen at every single show.
