    my notes

    Not nearly as funny as equanimity but i like a lot of what he said and his views on things (1 viewing)
    9jellopuke

    Like being in a small club

    Intimate setting and a more down to earth conversation about difficult topics. Worth checking out!

    2018 essential

    This is deep, maybe it's too dark and people are not ready to hear about these subjects in a humorous way, but like he says in it it's important that humorists can talk about controversial subjects. It's important that people can find humour even in the darkest things. I've never seen Dave as open as he is here, he takes risks and it might not talk to your preconceived ideas on sexual equality, racial equality or whatever else you don't agree with him, maybe you'll think he's crude, but it's just an access to the mind of a comedic genius who tries to make sense of the world he lives in with all it's absurdities.

    The small intimate setup is perfect for this type of monologue, the proximity with the public procure the intimacy needed to talk of those subject without making it feel disrespectful.

    One of the most intelligent show I've seen.

    When we look back at 2017-2018 in 20 years, this might be a good insightful moment to look back on in all the craziness.

    Should provide excellent re-watch value

    What I like about this one - its small club setting making things low key and like he's there just having a conversation with us - is also what keeps it somewhat minor compared to the first New Year's special.

    This could change on a second viewing though; highlights include Louis CKs "freckled p***is"; the most compelling argument (maybe once and for all) about why Michael Jackson's allegations were unfounded due to how he showed off his place to the kids; and a complex story about a cold pimp in France in the 40s who he connects in a long and winding way as to why he quit the Chappelle Show and kept a lower profile (that second one is partially why I need to watch it again to let that story sink in more).

    Chappelle is still a master here, just more about a lower energy for the most part than usual. It's real and introspective too; if you are expecting the typical stand up you may either get disappointed or thrown off. if you've ever been to an intimate space for comedy, Chappell delivers that. It's like you're there.

    Very Engaging.

    Not every comedian would be able to pull off being this low-key. I guess that's Chappelle for you.

    Unlike any other comedian.
