He was bombing and a few black dudes were heckling him pretty good. And then he lost all composure. A seasoned comic would have hammered them in a funny way. But he went Gibson 100%. Sucks to see.

Especially when you look at the old stuff from the 70s, 80s, 90s, it's amazing how much GOAT stuff isn't really that good when you watch it from today's perspective. Watching Burr or CK or dare I say Chappelle is a whole other level compared to 99.9% of old comedy. Andrew Dice Clay was an ARENA ACT just because he told naughty nursery rhymes on HBO. Ok, he was funny if you let your guard down and go with his schtick, but man oh man. This generation we're in now is a comedy boom. Club level guys are better than a lot of the big name guys from back then. Though you do need to give a lot of respect to the old timers who broke down the wall for these newer people.

Maybe I haven't heard the right material but what I've heard of Bill Hicks I didn't find that funny.
I liked his stuff when I watched a couple specials a few years ago on Netflix. But even comedy that's considered GOAT for its time has a risk of not being very good for today.

I've heard enough people say that Cosby is GOAT tier (or near it) enough to say *shrug*, I guess they're onto something. Especially before his allegations came out. Never seen any material of his. A lot of that list is correct enough I guess. Don't really have a solid grasp on most of it. But my rule of thumb is that it probably sucks if it plays for midwest TV audiences and moms.

Who the f*** LIKES James Corden?!

Tim Dillon is the man and he elevates any podcast that he's on. Not surprisingly, an east coaster. They're nearly always funnier than the LA guys. I happened to see him live in Montreal back in 2016 when he was featured on one of the comedy shows up there that I was at. Dude is sick.

He's sort of like if Rogan didn't have jokes fly over his head and also knew how to riff with funny people.

Bert Kreischer is one of those guys that I liked but over time grew tired of his schtick. His personality is revolting. Dude's like 50 and thinks his party antics are cool lmao. I liked his special before his last one but that's it for me.

Most of those LA people are douchey when they lean into their "gimmick". Bill Burr still comes off endearing with his schtick as a disgruntled old guy. But most of the LA podcast world is a clout-chasing circlejerk grift machine.

Isn't he the one who was fired from SNL for being racist?
He's the guy yes. His comments weren't very good, but he isn't a racist. The comments just look much worse than they are out of context, when in reality they were just stupid throwaway lines in passing. He's more than proved himself since then as a funny guy. I don't think it's right to end the guy over stuff he said while living in a Philly basement and making little money. His new special has 2 million views on Youtube. His sketch show Gilly and Keeves blows away most anything SNL is doing.

And for the record, he tells the story several times (on Rogan and elsewhere), but Lorne Michaels really tried to save his ass behind the scenes. It was the lawyers and corporations that really caused the firing.

This post right here is mostly a comment on the podcast scenes. I am always mildly annoyed at how much bigger the followings are for the LA-based stuff than for the NY comedy podcast scene. NY in general just goes plain HARDER in the comedy department. Some of it is over the top and cringe, but in general, they're a funnier crop of comics than LA. Bar none. LA has a few guys that are independently great like Bill Burr, but the 'Rogan bro clique' is baffling to me.

The west coast especially feels like a giant grift by fat guys in hoodies to sell hoodies and other merch to fools on the internet. I'm talking namely the Rogan spinoff guys like Brendan Schaub and Bobby Lee and Chris D'Elia and several others. These accounts on Youtube pull in 100s of thousands of subs and they are 10% as funny as any of the east coast NY / Boston / Philly guys.

Seriously though, comedy-wise, you're better off listening to club level comedy rather than ~99% of the big industry promoted stuff. I'm talking guys like Mark Normand, Joe List, Shane Gillis, Sam Morrill, Dan Soder, Big Jay Oakerson, Dave Attell. Several of these guys uploaded their specials onto Youtube for free.

I think even many of today's comics would still praise what he did back in the day with his 2 specials. But they didn't necessarily age the best. But fact is, to have 2 specials at his age and at that time and place is an amazing feat.

Also, Joe Rogan's standup is pretty mediocre compared to his stature in the comedy world. I didn't mind his last special but the ones before that were very meh. He's got guys in his circle (Tom Segura, Ari Shaffir) that blow him away. Not to mention adjacent east coast guys like Bill Burr who's just the GOAT of our time possibly.

Rogan's standup and sense of humour is very mechanical compared to a lot of comics out there. Those guys possess funny in them that Joe does not. It's all natural.

Boomer comedians like Jerry Seinfeld ain't really my thing. I acknowledge he's good at the craft, but I don't gravitate to it. Seinfeld is still a GOAT show.

For older comics, I usually say George Carlin is the best. Richard Pryor too. Otherwise, I'm gravitating towards cringy s*** like Andrew Dice Clay or Sam Kinison or Rodney Dangerfield. I also don't mind Bill Hicks. But I don't foresee myself going out of my way to look at the old clean material by Tim Allen or Jay Leno or Dave Letterman who were all supposedly very good in their day.

There are plenty of trendy comics from today that I just have no interest in seeing. I liked Amy Schumer for a second. I could care less now. Aziz Ansari doesn't really hold my interest. Hannah Gadsby is REDACTED. Kevin Hart is fine but I'm not wowed by him.

One industry darling I really like and stands up to the hype is Sebastian Maniscalco. That dude is a machine. Effing hilarious.

She's way too nice and dances too much and puts out too much good vibes to be really funny.
I've heard that her stuff from pre-fame and pre-TV is pretty good. But even for good comedy back then, not all of it ages well. I've never seen her stuff.
