Neal Brennan: 3 Mics

Neal is a fantastic comedian artist who gives an auto-biography performance that is emotionally captivating, brilliantly delivered, and highly relatable to alot of peoples lives growing up with depression. The way he is able to share his child-adulthood journey and send the audience on this roller-coaster of tears and laughter. Brutally honest about himself in a way that most would never be able to do, expecially on the level of a netflix original. If your a fan of stand-up i highly recommend giving this a watch. Neal has been creating gold behind closed doors since the beginning of his comedy career and i hope this allows him to get the publicity and acknowledgment he deserves, one of the best stand-up specials i've seen and i've seen just about all of them. Treat yourself and give this a shot! congrats N.B. on a fantastic special!

Easiest way to say it. Neal is a damn genius. And if you don't get it you are the idiot his joke is about and the problem with society. I want to marry this man and I think marriage is a sham.

Neal Brennan has a rare talent to make a large room of people laugh when necessary... or sit in silence, not sure to weather to cry... or just empathize with him.

Most of us probably watched this in the comfort of our homes, but that didn't lessen the pure impact of his message, and the heart behind his humor. I did NOT expect to receive that from a comedian I've never heard of before today.

Within the last ten minutes of the show, I was in tears. The subject matter he covers in the last bit is so brutal, and hard to listen to, but I think the reward is to know that he is who he is today because of it.

I don't know what else to say without giving anything away except... go watch it! See for yourself. The very idea of 3 microphones was brilliant, and frankly kept me guessing a few times to see which mic he was going to go to next after the lights went out. It puts a nice twist on the "One Man Show" Concept.

I certainly hope this guy builds a larger following. The more people who watch this will understand where I'm coming from. I've been deeply impacted by this, and I hope I'm not alone on that.

The actual comedy in this show isn't always stellar. It's not incredibly unique. What makes this special worth watching is the 'real' parts of the show. Neal dives into some really deep subjects and it makes the viewer think. This special isn't just a comedy show, it's a real-life story with ups and downs and cuts and notes. If you're looking for traditional comedy, it might be best to avoid this, but if you liked Bo Burnham's Make Happy, you'll probably like this.

Part comedy part deep life reflection. Great comedy is about life, and with 3 mics you get both the good and the bad of it. You can be rolling back in your seat with laughter one minute, but on the edge of it the next. Amongst the waves of laughter, lay brutal life reflections, both funny and tragic. Definitely worth a watch.
