User Reviews

If you're looking for cheap laughs look elsewhere

This is a masterclass. Look, the jokes arent quick and quirky , but the stories that lead up to the hilarity takes time to build, to appreciate. I enjoyed the stories and I enjoyed the eventual funny twist. Dave's back and he's different, people change, he's not a cooked up pothead anymore, the man is a poet and he's brilliant.

If you want quick crappy jokes then listen to Katt Williams or Corey Holcomb, this is philosophy with a funny bone.

I did wish he didn't bash Trump but thats the season nowadays it seems.
