I wish they had the same technology we have now. That they would have to have a lot more material in a routine. Cause I’m telling you I love this man so much I know all the jokes and punch lines. It would be amazing to see what he could done now knowing he’d be pressed to do more material. ❤
If anyone’s got a link to the rare show with the bit about going on holiday as a kid and his old man offering him a plum, also getting his head shaved, legendary set n I can’t find it anymore
Joke about taking the guy to chemo in his place at the beginning, wonder if that was if he knew his illness and his own way of saying something without saying anything. Wish we still you Bill. You were so one the money with so much well before the time.
he could play the crowd and improv in between his bits which shows a lot of talent, i agree he did use the same material over and over , but he was trying to build a brand. another thing he's unique for is completely imploding and exploding on the crowd from dealing with hecklers which is regrettably a guilty pleasure of mine to see lmao!
you're probably not old enough to understand the weight of what he was saying WHEN he was saying it. this was a massively christian nation at the time, and he was doing this in the south. you have no idea.
