Shane Gillis: Live in Austin

I heard all about Shane Gillis before watching this and he certainly was held in the highest of regard by his fellow comedians - but he absolutely killed it with this. He has talent of CK and Carlin while being likeable and relatable. What a special and what a comedian.

This is what stand up comedy looks like. Unbelievable special. I'm a huge fan of stand up and have been for years. Can honestly say I've never laughed harder at any other special than this. The fact that he doubts himself is insane. I will definitely pay to see him when his is in my area next. Great work Shane.

He's really funny, charming and has a lighthearted demeanor, so even when he says things that I'm sure the american left would consider "offensive", it's hard not to smile.

His stories are pretty unique too, aside from a tired tangent on american politics, of course, but he had a unique twist on that too, so it wasn't quite the eye-rolling material you'd expect. But it was the weakest part of an otherwise killer special.

But yeah, top tier comedian right there, and this special is one of the best of 2021 for sure.

Best of all, you don't need to subscribe to cancer like Netflix to watch this special, it's free on youtube, and it's better than all of SNL and most of Netflix's frontpage comedians combined, so be sure to watch it and show some love to this dude.

It's rare for a stand up to have me constantly laughing. But this guy is just my exact sense of humour. Seen him randomly on youtube shorts then because I liked his humour so much I searched for him on YouTube and found this stand up set. Even when I was poorly lying in bed in the dark this guy had me laughing so much I had to pause it to cough. I've got the flu. Haven't laughed in ages. This is so so so funny. Honestly.. Wish I could see him live. I hope he comes to the UK one day. Please do a UK tour. I'd love to see you live Shane. Watched Ricky Gervais's latest stand up on Netflix two days ago and thought it was absolutely horrendous, it was so bad.... After watching this gem, I'm reminded what an actually funny comedian is. Thank you. Thoroughly recommend. Very good. Great work. Bravo. Going to watch your other one on Netflix tonight. Excited.

I very rarely write reviews but I've watched this 5 times or more now. Such a great watch and most importantly it is funny, very funny. It is insightful but not pretentious and he has a great delivery but it is not overly polished. I love how raw it was, like actually being in a comedy club. Great length for a special too. Best special I've watched in the last 5 years. Perfect with its imperfections.
