Ronny Chieng: Asian Comedian Destroys America

In the world of Burr, Jim Jeffries, Chappelle, Gervais, and a few others... it seems difficult to standout in the comic world. I'll also admit that I haven't paid much attention to The Daily Show since Jon Stewart left. It just hasn't been as funny and the correspondents always seem like bottom of the barrel including the random segments I've seen with Ronny.

There was a clip of this special floating around online that delayed my viewing of this special. The clip taken out of context definitely made it seem not funny... terrible choice for the person that put that clip out. With that being said, going in to this special I completely expected to get bored and turn it off.

This set is hilarious. I found myself laughing at multiple parts throughout. Being a white guy, I didn't expect for any of the Asian perspective humor to land. Having an Asian fiance along with future in-laws... oh my gah, did some of those jokes land.

The jokes are good but it was clear that Ronny is an excellent storyteller too. For the most part, Ronny is being honest in this special. I think it helps that he has lived in a few different countries.

I'll be paying attention and I'll look forward to what this guy does in the future.

I am soooo ready for the Susans and other snowflakes when they decide to be offended 😅😅😅😅

Superb set. Fresh and good! Give me more

This was a good laugh! Definitely worth the watch, look forward to seeing more content from this comedian. Keep up with the good work. Cheers

The second of my double feature the other day was this new comedy special from Ronny Chieng, the Chinese-Malaysian stand-up comic. I had seen that it dropped, but it didn't really register since I didn't know much about him, other than he was in "Crazy Rich Asians" and played a supremely unlikeable character (my least favorite from the books). After watching "American Factory" and an investigation about what happens when Chinese and American cultures bump up against each other, this was a nice and light (and interesting) segue, with hilarious observations and jokes about his experience as an Asian comedian in America and how different it is over here than in the states. Worth your time to check out, and another in a fairly long line of really funny comedy specials on Netflix.

I was in tears laughing quite a few times. One of the funniest Netflix specials to come out in a while.
