Yeah he's nothing like his cash cab persona in real life, the first time I saw his standup, I was blown away. Same thing happened when I saw Bob sagets standup for the first time.
Is there a link to the original audio anywhere still? It's cool that "comedy anatomy" bought the rights to the footage and released it in full, but the audio quality was so much better in the original video!
Idk, this Dais was a true Murderer's Row... Barry, Giraldo, DiPaolo, Burr, Norton, Quinn. Each one, plus I'm sure a few I'm missing, put on their own MasterClass in roasting here... Most kept it kinda Mean/Loving. Patrice called em out if they were kissing too much ass.
Is there still a link anywhere to the original video of this with just the audio? The footage is great, but the audio balancing was so much better for this god-tier roast!
Roasts before social media and roasts today are so different; roasts in the age of Facebook and Twitter are on a higher tier of meanness. Pray you don't have a deceased relative who died by self-deleting themselves, or a mom who went to rehab, or some such; they're going to get mentioned for sure.
Came here because someone commented this exceeds Jeselnik's roast of Snoop. There's no accounting for taste. This reminds me of my traumatic brain injured janitor when he's drunk.
The little Kev reference is, Keith Robinson was kind of a mentor for the then up and coming young comedian Kevin Hart. Keith took him under his wings, but Kevin ripped the wing of flying away with it with his success, leaving Keith behind with one wing flying in circles between Philly and NY. Ben just took a shit down Keith's soul in the most poetic way possible, lol. He is just vicious in this set. "I've been drinking and I'm feeling violent!"
The reason Patrice O'Neal made fun of you was because you weren't funny that was the funniest thing about you is when Patrice pointed it out get over yourself
Bro are you kidding? Do you have any idea who is sitting in this room during the bit? You only just demonstrated that you don't follow these guys regularly.
Who is this comedian? How has his career blown up from doing this to him one of the greatest? I hope you read this and realize that you ruined your career
