      I agree completely. So many comics rely way too much on profanities. I sometimes in the heat of the moment blurt out a profanity so I try not to, and I don’t mind really if a friend of mine does it occasionally. But it is definitely the case that most comedians who use profanities do so because many of their jokes aren’t good enough standing on their own. The reason I try to avoid most profanities is that I think it is the kind thing to do for other people… To not put images of excrement, sex acts and unsightly body parts into the minds of family, friends and strangers except when doing so is needed in order to properly explain something. I have also noticed that much of the time when I use profanities, it is my ego or pride at work… That part of me thinks that it’s cool or tough or something to swear. When I notice I am doing something out of ego or pride, I try to reduce or avoid doing it.

    I love his bit about how the airport announcements telling passengers that they will be boarding soon. Their calm announcement must come out sounding more like "everyone hurry, run!," and t kreps getting more frantic, " Push and shove," and culminates with a crazed, "THIS IS THE LAST HELICOPTER OUT OF VIETNAM!" Makes me laugh every time.

    I think clean comedian equals WAY more audience. Its not a deterrent for people to see comedy without swearing. There's a certain audience that wants to see a really vulgar conedian but I think that was more popular in 90's early 00's. Now so many try to out-vulgar each other that nobody cares.

He did eventually recover but he looked like a deer in the headlights when it happened. Always love this comedian he been a blessing to us all, and it keeps it clean.

    Love Rip Regan! I was thinking the same thing about having Fritzey slow down. Brian is so right about creating space for the audience to lean in. I don’t do comedy but am a public speaker and find that I need to build in space for the audience to keep up and have a brief emotional reaction - good, bad, funny, heartwarming, thought provoking, whatever the goal is. There are places where this can be predicted based on prior reactions -so mark those moments.

The majority of the best comedians are clean including Seinfeld, Brian Regan, Jim Gaffigan, Stephen Wright and Demetri Martin. Mixing swears in is definitely a crutch for most comedians who swear. Too many of their jokes don’t have enough on their own, so they have to throw in swears to try to amp them up.

    He’s a genius and hilarious and I love that he doesn’t have to cuss to be funny.

    When he asked Brian about getting heckled and how he handled it one night, with, “Stop it! You’re hurting my feelings!”, he seemed so embarrassed to share that story. I’ve never seen him blush before. 😢

    It's not that he's clean, it's that he's funny. I could stand in front of an audience for an hour and not cuss if that was the only criteria.

    Every now and then he has his brother Dennis’s inflections. Clean humor takes more wit and talent than crude blue. Shock is not humor.

    Probably the best stand up comedian ever.

    He used to do this bit many years ago about a farmer receiving crop subsidies to keep supply in check and prices up, and they would ask the farmer what he did for a living. With a smirk, the guy (Brian) would reply, “Well, I don’t grow corn.” But probably my favorite is his comedy on ‘Flying’. One of the greats!

    I have never seen a place so cluttered, except maybe the show about hoarders.
