I’ve seen his stand up. It’s nothing special.

    So much of his standup depends on making initial observations of seemingly absurd things and then not putting a single ounce of thought or research into them to determine if they're actually absurd. It's low-hanging fruit for tipsy people at a comedy club.

    He was utterly, perfectly cast as a supposed straight-man who's just as callously thoughtless as his bizarre friends but with a veneer of "insight". It was brilliant. I wonder if he quite realized why.
