I enjoyed his previous work - this material felt like he took notes from other comedians just talking on podcasts. Lacking innovation or creativity. Subjects like "internet trolls are worthless" and "anti-vaxers are uneducated" are part of our everyday conversations. I agree with both statements, but there should be more to such a "work of art" than just stating the obvious. It was so surprising to me, when he finished a thought and moved on to the next one, without having added anything new or original. Also it felt awkward when he said it's so easy to just criticize, compared to lift people up, when so much of this show is cheap shots. Looking forward to him stepping up his game in future. He's got the talent and the experience. I just see this one as a slip-up.

Disappointed - the bar is higher for such a comedy veteran.
