    Being disabled and almost bedbound. Approximately 95% of the time, due to an extreme lack of energy (because of excruciating pain and unfortunately many heavy meds), I loved the handicapped joke of Chapelle! I love jokes on my own expense 😂

      When I was a child I was afraid I'd get in an accident and end up disabled. Not anymore. Now I'm afraid if I'm disabled in any physical way, I'll be abused by the grossest people and might not be able to do or say anything about it. If I'm gonna be in an accident, I better die. Dead serious.

    What he was doing with the handicapped joke is what many people failed to realize he was *trying* to do with the trans jokes in the first place: He's taking a group and inviting them to the cool kids table where we all understand we make fun of eachother here, because that actually makes us equals.

    I don't think this was Dave's funniest special, just because there were a lot of parts where he was serious, but in my opinion it's one of his best from a substantive point of view, it's really sincere and you get the feeling he's just talking to the audience like it's a big group of friends. He's really tied his craft all together, it's pretty amazing to watch.

    Old school here, ……..The comedian to listen to in the day was Sinbad, he left me rolling on the floor and was clean and family friendly.

      Agree that Sinbad was outstanding. Knew how to work an audience. Endless charisma and originality. The "are you OFFENDED?!?!" comics today simply can't compete.

    Sticks & Stones, The Bird Revelation, and Equanimity... were STRAIT FIRE back to back imo... Then you have "Age of Spin" "Deep in the Heart of Texas" w/ absolute gems...
    I agree, he *Mostly went a little more "Standard" here i.e. jokes that don't have to be set up too deep, but this dude just literally put out multiple *new hours since 2017...
    He's most likely trying material, most other people, would not do that *For a special.... but it's Chapelle. He's so good, his 10 to 20 minutes shorts of him labbing in some 200 seated bar, were released on video...'8:46' 'Unforgiven' & 'Redemption Song' great examples since his comeback... Keep Going Dave... He's the top 5-8 that I can say literally give me no choice but to laugh the the shit hits correct.

    I think the reason why he specifically mentioned fruit cocktail, is a throwback to Half Baked.

    Love me some Dave Chappelle comedy. But I agree with Michael Knowles on at least this point, I love all Norm MacDonald comedy. Favorite comedian ever. I even loved him before I knew he was sick!

    I'm so glad Michael decided to explain these jokes, I didn't understand the punchlines until he broke them down for me. It was only after his comments that I was able to laugh. I hope he makes a video doing commentary on the whole show! 😂

    There’s a magnificent freedom comedians have in being “cancelled”. There’s a “No F%^#’s given” that you release in them, that allows them to Super Mario-style level up.

    The submersible joke was a setup for the wife joke, wasn't that funny till he gets to when he left his joke book for his wife and told her she had to tell the jokes exactly as he wrote them.

    @MichaelKnowles It's a PROFOUND bit... because outside of "Identity defining your being"... Chappell is throwing in a backhanded *Compliment in there. This is why he's the GOAT of Comedy imo, especially story telling... HIS PUNCH, is basically (addressed to the public) "All I wanted to do, was appreciate you! The real you, that I love, and I got a million pronouns thrown in my face..." Lifting the Self, above the "Identity" politics... further stating, "it's frustrating, to want to experience people for who they are w/o the over declaration of how they identify taking paramount..." I love that set up, execution, and especially Punch... He kept saying "I didn't know this" to disallow the audience to think he's going w/ a metaphor to identity politics... which was written in... Not his best joke, but definitely more than what people think he's saying... I study this man... I've yet to see the whole special, maybe today...
    It's not beyond Chapelle to construct a joke that can be reversed engineered, It's not a tool he lacks... I like it... 4 out of his 5 were 10/10 imo and the Closer was good, but meant to be a message, so he took a little heat off the jokes I feel...
