    The incredible story about the Coffin Club just broke me!
    1) No-one should not be able to afford a coffin
    2) Making coffins, particularly for infants, so other people don't have to think about it is incredibly humbling and should be treasured.
    3) We can all learn from their perspectives on speaking about death openly and honestly. Not as a great tragedy, but as a fact of life.
    Thanks for the excellent tour

    what a brilliant show! few comments:
    1) russell's hair during the stand-up looks like he has little hornes sticking out.
    2) bless those elderly people for making those coffins, especially the little ones. can't imagine how hard it is to take the emotional pressure of creating the resting place for a human who has barely been alive.
    3) that's the coolest karen i've ever seen.

    Never seen Russell's shows, only knew him from panels and Taskmaster. I am trully amazed at how important it is for him to find the good in people and show it to us. When the world around you is so depressing, when people do such incredible evil - this video is a breath of fresh air. Thank you for reminding us that the world is a good place.
    I didn't even realised how much I needed it.
    Thanks.

    It takes a lot to make me cry nowadays. Partly due to antidepressants and the rest because I’m old in my soul…and a little ‘world weary’ but the last 2 minutes of the show? It pierced my heart with its utter honesty, simplicity and the eternal beauty of its sentiment. Love.

For 45minutes I have been completely distracted from the pain 💖
    The way Russell focuses on the people is just so lovely and wholesome and just soooo funny! So no matter how long this stupid injury lasts...at least I'm not a woodpecker.
