Russell Howard: Lubricant

Nothing wrong will being political in your set, it becomes problematic when the truth your trying to convey behind your satire/joke isn't actually true.

This is virtually indistinguishable from the lame talking points you would hear on CNN, combined with the same inaccurate jokes of most of the major late night shows.

Leftists will love it, those who value truth and reason will find it lacking.

I have all his old DVDs and I like recalibrate as well, but I'll copy and paste a text I sent to my misses who is also a big fan.

"Yeah his last one was good he actually told stories, this one it was like he was just after applause, saying things everyone obviously agrees with and bringing his views into it and then being incredibly hypocritical. The first half was shocking and then he told 1 sort of decent story at the end. He's found what makes him money and it's sucking up to 20 year old brain washed students, so unfortunately he's not for me anymore." When he told stories it was actually good and the interaction with the crowd was good, but the preachy stuff was too much for me, not because I don't agree with it, It just doesn't make me laugh, save it for the correct setting where things can be done about it. No matter what you say he isn't the same comedian from years gone by, he was much better back then!

The only reason this hasn't scored lower is because of the documentary that is included. If it was based on that alone that would of got a 7/8 because I really enjoyed that. I still like him as a person I just don't find his TV show (which at one time was the best thing on BBC Three) or his stand up funny anymore.

I expect to get hate from those brain washed students, but just remember I was a fan and supporting the fella back when he was on mock the week, you're new to the party , you probably don't have a clue how good he used to be!

The guy beat a dead horse with 30 mins of talking about vac, BLM, Facebook. I couldn't think of more obvious low hanging fruit for a comedian. He said it was not British to be offended by a joke. They legally are not to have political satire on TV. It's super British to be offended at a joke. This guy just seems unwise and uneducated and he's spouting the first funny that comes to his head.

This was brilliant and hilarious. Nuff said. Ignore the bad reviews. Its just angry mentally unstable anti-vaccine ramblings. Conspiracy theorist be crazy as always.

I have been watching his political satire recently. I was surprised to find a British person doing the same thing Colbert, Seth Meyers, Trevor Noah do on a regular basis.

My Japanese partner thought this live was funny too. I could see her giggling via the subtitles.

Just look at the rating, 7.0 and thought it was low then saw all the anti-vaxxers and Yankee Republicans in the reviews going on about the lamestream media and propaganda. Basically Trump supporters that are all pissed off with someone who believes in science. I think he mentions vaccines for 2mins at most, then its onto what idiots we Brits can be, and how to laugh at yourself and laugh with your family.

From these reviews, people clearly didnt get it and cant laugh at themselves.
