      @@hamhead2765 ​​⁠His refusal to use crude language or subject matter is an obvious sign of his comedic brilliance. Other comedians remark about it all the time. Crudeness is a hallmark of comedians because it’s the easiest laugh; just as it is among teenagers and drunk adults.

      So Carlin, Pryor, Bruce, Hicks, etc were bad comics?

    Some years ago, a girl I started dating and I planned on seeing Brian Regan but then a few hours before we were going to leave for the show, she called and told me she couldn't make it due to a family emergency. She then asked if I was still going or instead hang out in the area with her, my reply was, "Yes...absolutely I am going to see Brian Regan...!" She wasn't too happy about my over-exuberant reply to go without her especially since she was a big Brian Regan fan like me. I then rode my motorcycle alone (as my car was in the shop) two hours each way in winter weather and practically froze each way there and back but Brian Regan was so funny it was all worth it. The first and last time I saw him live, and I can't wait to see him again.

    I was once one of the toddlers involved. Well, I was 4. At my grandmothers apartment I decided to slide on the wooden floor with socks and slid onto my grandmother and the ironing board that proceeded to topple over on me. The iron landed not too close but got whooped by the board. My grandmother yelled and cried. I cried. It was a scene. When my parents showed up they yelled some more. I have no recollection of it but my grandmother loved telling the story of when I “nearly died” on her care.

    Do yourselves a favor and watch "There's Something Wrong with the Regan Boy" if you like this clip. His bits on baseball and spelling bees and science fairs are some of his best bits. Plus, he was a lot younger, so he's got this weird physical delivery where he's all hunched over and prowling around the stage -- it's just bizarre and funny and adds to his vocal delivery.
