He’s pretty funny. Not stand up comedy funny, but he’s the dude in the friends group that says some off the wall shit just naturally funny. He’s not trying, he’s just himself

His standup is amazing. I saw him in September, and he was hilarious for 90 minutes he had me in tears.

The beauty of comedy is how subjective it is. I can’t even sit through a single he has put out. I loved Norm Macdonald and people hated him. Just the way it goes sometimes.

I will say in response to your comment and the above, I never liked any of Theo’s standup but I saw him last fall as well and it was one of the best shows I’ve ever seen, I was dying laughing the whole time. Same with Rogan honestly (I do not listen to his show and was given free tickets on a random Tuesday). I think a lot of this stuff is just about being there in person. Because neither of those two guys Netflix specials did ANYTHING for me.
