"Thanks For Risking Your Life"
Lewis Black, heir to the George Carlin throne of the comedy rant, and practitioner of his signature blend of frustrated optimism, lets loose again on his familiar punching bags of hypocrites, corporate swindlers, and governmental incompetents. Black doesn’t have set-ups to jokes so much as he has volcanic build-ups, twitchily rumbling up to eruptive punch lines. Black performed this set just days after the rest of the country shut down (the show was allowed to go on because it was in a sovereign Native American venue), so his commentary covers our current Corona-induced anxiety and his own hilarious frustration over The-Orange-One-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named. Lewis Black doesn’t take political sides; whether he’s exposing the wide-spread systemic failures of both parties, or pin-pointing the micro-stupidities within pop culture, commensurate rage is jettisoned in favor of deploying an overwhelming force of comic condemnation, punctuated by his ever-present arsenal of F-Bombs.

Lewis always knows what we need! The same political reruns we get every four years and he gives us a rerun that makes us laugh and think! Thx!❤
I'm old school and like how my grandmother lived with us, even after she got Alzheimer's and stayed with us for 2 years until it wasn't feasible for her own safety. (She was the kindest, sweetest and unbelievably respectful, polite woman ever. Until she got Alzheimer's and then she started to curse and make fun of people which at first was shocking to say the least. But super hilarious because her mind wasn't gone until the end. She just lost the function to edit herself which was more than fine by me as I was 14 years old and it was actually one of the most special times of my life in terms of how I look back now and miss her very, very much) So I'll be living with my mother and Trust me when I say personality wise she is not my grandmother, in fact the exact opposite. Still, doesn't matter as I'll always take care of her until I can't. However, the fact that I can't afford to lock her up somewhere, super doesn't play a factor in that decision I swear to God!! I don't have children but my sister does, things are going to be super hard for them in the future, so I couldn't imagine taking what left of the family nut in terms of personal care & I couldn't imagine them taking care of me so I figure it's probably going to be a chain and an anchor with a short boat ride when I figure it's no longer an option to take care of myself......... With any luck, the War on drugs will be over and I can at least enjoy my last few months surfing on heroin cause Morphine's a Drag!!!!
May the higher power love you 😂😂❤❤❤
Here here bro.
“Can you get me a flight to North Korea..?” 😂😂😝😝
Love you Lewis. 😂 💜
Great content…😂
You Absolute LEGEND 💯 ❤❤❤
"Be prepared" ! 🎱
You are wonderful. Thank you for sharing your talent.
It's wild how the simple 'reality' you shared was so funny 🥰 (kinda scary though, aye Lewis?)
I hope they can laugh at themselves, in the way that we got a laugh from your 'blunt honesty'
We love you, Lewis ❤

Man. Lewis is looking slim these days! 👍
Ain't it the truth 😂😂😂😂
Lmao!! Yes!
You're the best!❤
The only people who talk about the "good economy" are stock brokers who make their money on trades.
And real estate agents -- have you ever heard a Realtor say it's a "bad time" to buy a house? Nope -- it's always a great time.
Sago Lewis 😂
Too funny, I just turned 65!
😂😂😂😂
Well, you know what needs to be done. We appreciate your sacrifice. 🙃
@@daggaz🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I remember you from the Westbank Cafe midnight show days when smoking was part of your act, as part of mine. Ah, gone are the snows of yesteryear. Still funny sir. Good on you.
The best 🎉❤
Unless you are the cat lady like me! WTF?
I was surprised to hit 40. And weirdly it goes on.
Mitch the Turtle!!! I love it!! hahahaha
Incredibly funny!
Funny, funny shit.
Mother🌹
Lewis is the greatest!
Man, you're a f'n legend.
Luv's ya dude - live for ever!
🤣🤣🤣 ~ 🙏🙏🙏 ~ 💥💯💥
i love Lewis, I really do, one of the greats, but the standup itself, IMHO, just isn't that great and hasn't been for a while.
Of course, could be a personal taste thing, a change of style or a change of what I like without my knowing it, but I do think there's something slightly missing, or there's not quite the pazazz there used to be.
Could be age of course, but I don't know, maybe a change of format or media could be in order? Maybe tiktok rants? xD
