I enjoy it too but I prefer when it's a lot funnier than what Chappelle put out which is why I'm so hard on him. Nomsayin?

Louis pandered to the left a lot. I love Louis and I hope he resurrected but he knew how to set a tone liberal white people would be comfortable with.

Dave Chappelle is pandering to the anti-PC crowd (though I think he's laughing at their predictability just as much as he is at the PC crowd), does that invalidate his championship?

Jimmy Carr is the English dude I was thinking of.

Steve Hughes is pretty good too.

If you open up podcasting as a new brand of standup (which I think is valid), edgy comedy is abound. It's really not under threat.

Nah cause the anti pc crowd (comedy fans) don't get you canceled.

And the last point is semantics. I thought there were genuinely funny lines in his special.

Who got Carlin cancelled?

Gatekeeping comedy is a PC crowd move btw

There were some but I also thought that the majority of the special was pretty bland. Idk, I think I've been too desensitized by 14 year olds in YouTube comment sections to be able to appreciate offensiveness with little genuine joke structure supporting it.
