His latest special ‘Jokes from the Underground’ was included in the New York Times ‘Best Comedy of 2022’ where critic Jason Zinoman called it the funniest YouTube Special of the year, and said “his punchy and deliriously funny club comedy made me laugh after second and third viewings.’” His first special ‘Downhill Ever Since’ is almost at 200K views on YouTube.
