Isn't this guy one of RPB's favorite comedians?

I first heard about him on here. I think it was BigFan who mentioned him. I think he is one of the funniest guys I've listened to in quite some time. Another guy that has been around awhile but new to me,Todd Berry. A different kind of comic but he cracks me up.

Gonna say I turned off one of his standup bits 5 times while on a plane trying not to be the guy laughing outloud with my headphones on.

Been a long time fan of his.

Chicks do hate him though as a rule of thumb.

He has done a really good job of not losing his edge while kind of getting into the main stream.

I know people who love him. While I agree with most of his premises, I think he's a little too yelley and lacks comedic timing. Sometimes it is just him on stage screaming.

I guess that might be funny outside of Chicago, but that bit was largely "out of town stupid" and a handful of played-out stereotypes that were beaten into the ground 20+ years ago.

Yeah, he's great.

That bit was lame as fuck, but I like that he knows sports enough to do shit like that

Yeah, for those of us that cared before 2003, it rings a little untrue.

I understand why Sox fans like it though

The best part of it had nothing to do with the Cubs.

We had a classic car and traded it in for a ford taurus :lol:

I wouldn't say he knows sports. He sure knows Cub stereotypes, however.

After listening to this, I'm sure it's the first chubby many Sock fans here have had since "whistler" lost his login.

His screed against Philly earned my never ending respect.
