I'm not really a stand up fan, but I decided to listen to a bunch of stand up specials for awhile while driving/etc just to mix it up. My selection of specials has been pretty arbitrary, just stuff that came up in youtube searches and such. Thoughts so far: Mark Normand - Don't Be Yourself (2017) Not bad. Decent writing, delivery a bit stiff. My Rating: B- Big Jay Oakerson - Dog Belly (2023) Very slow paced, weirdly non-chalant energy. Didn't make me groan or cringe or find anything to actively hate, just boring. My Rating: D+ Ari Shaffir - JEW (2022) I don't like Ari Shaffir, but this was pretty good. I liked the religion material a lot, and while some bits were on the cringe side, it was enjoyable overall My Rating: B+ Bryan Callen - Man Tears (2023) I don't like Bryan Callen and this was very bad. One good joke, but mostly unfunny and stupid. My Rating: D Kyle Kinase - Shocks & Struts (2022) Nothing to actively hate, but I couldn't connect with this or find it engaging at all. My Rating: C- Shane Gillis - Live in Austin (2022) I enjoyed the family stories. The Trump stuff is played out, but some of it was still funny. Some bits were annoying. My Rating: B- Hannibal Burris - Animal Furnace (2012) Very charismatic. Pretty good material. I enjoyed it. My Rating: B+ Tom Papa - What a Day! (2022) It had a couple funny stories, but most of it was very bland and didn't do much for me. My Rating: C+ Andrew Shultz - Infamous (2022) Terrible. So stupid. My Rating: F Matt Rife - Only Fans (2021) The highs were high (I enjoyed the oujia boad story), but much of it was annoying. My Rating: C+ I'm open to suggestions on what to listen to next.

The new Joe Pera special is great. I suspect pretty much anyone who liked his show will enjoy it.
