Nikki Glaser: Bangin'

I think this was very good, you get it from a womans perspective, sure its gross but so is really the subject and she makes the gross funny from a personal view. She talks a lot of sex but I didnt found it vulgar as another comedienne might. Her timing is excellent and to me she is full of irony and satire and self depreciating in a fun way. To like it you need to like dark humour, to me the absolute best female american comic.

It's not great, but not terrible either. She's recently been on a few podcasts I listen to: JRE, Bert, YMH, etc. and I found her to be extremely funny and captivating to listen to. It's not just the sex stuff, it's the flow of the conversations and the way she tells a story that got me hooked. I wish this special was more of what I heard on podcasts. She did say she has no rhythm and you can 100% feel that. Maybe that's why people are turned off by it. The laughs from the audience seemed lower volume too. Idk if the was done in post production or they never mic'd the room or she just didn't get big laughs from people? The stage and lighting was excellent and she looked banging af up there. The content was good too. It wasn't bad comedy either. As a straight male, most of it grossed me out, but that's what I loved about it.

I'm not a critic or some comedy genius. I'm some dude on the internet and Nikki is way more successful than me. She knows what she's doing and is funny. She wouldn't be where she is today if she wasn't funny. Sometimes things just don't hit that level you're excepting and this special is what that is. I give a 5/10.

Comedy is very subjective, so I totally see why some would not enjoy a comedy special focussed exclusively on the topic of sex. I didn't enjoy any of Kevin Hart's standup. Literally did not laugh once through 20 minutes of each of them - which is why I stopped watching after 20 minutes. But many people really enjoyed it, so who am I to discredit their tastes? If sex makes you uncomfortable or you have experienced sexual trauma in your life, be warned that Bangin' will offend you at some point. If that happens early on, it will set the tone for the rest of the show, so I would suggest you cut your losses. As a 40 year old married man, this was one of my favorite stand-ups on Netflix. Just when you think it can't get any raunchier, Nikki finds another notch on the dial. Yes, some of the humour is not new, but her delivery, sincerity and personalization of it is genius. I will always be a fan of Nikki after this.

Yes its crude and yes its specific, so I guess it all depends on who's watching. Both my husband and I thought it was funny. It was a little slow for me at first, and honestly, I think her audience sucked (do people even know the comedians they're going to see?), but by the end I was cackling. She's a little like Amy Schumer in that her content is raunchy and explicit, but Nikki's actually funny and it doesn't seem forced.

It's just sheltered life sex shaming. It's not clever or witty, it's more like listening in on a spoiled rich teenager talk about how she's way too important to do stuff like that.
