Went to High School with that guy; he was a sick and funny bastard back then.

I started examining stand up comics during the pandemic and quickly realized the best were Brits. Jeselnik was my favorite American. A good Indian guy was Russell Peters but he laughs after his own jokes. Never do that.

Jimmy Carr has a great laugh and can get away with it. I did pick up that the Brits have come a long way with their stand up crop since the 1970s.

I like Brits Michael McIntyre, Al Murray and Jimmy Carr, particularly. Obviously Gervais, but he's practically one of us and I've always liked Russell Brand, but don't know where to put him. These others I've only recently warmed up.

Holy shite, that was hilarious. I haven't seen that special but I've liked him for years. Love the dark humor.

Yes, Jimmy Carr's laugh is unique. That's why it works. Al Murray is amazing. I don't like Michael McIntyre. I also like Simon Evans and Milton Jones. Jones has a very unique style.

Mitch Hedburg did sometimes as well. And Mitch was great.

That's true. But he also had that unique perspective that you weren't sure if he was lucid.

I get that he might be off-putting, especially a full hour or so. I must ask, though, have you watched his Ackle Akinkacker bit?
