    I listened to Louis CK (because you posted about him before). I LIKED it. Made me laugh. He better watch out 'cause Dr. Ronald Mallett is messin' around with a time machine! :p

    I never paid much attention to Louis CK, but I have to jump on the bandwagon, that sh*t was hilarious. He is real with his, lol

    Yeah, Louis CK is the best but Bill Burr has done some other stuff that's better than this sample. He does a bit about being a lone White guy traveling on the subway up to Harlem very late at night for a booty call with his Black girlfriend which is hilarious. Seemed that the girlfriend knew it could be dangerous for him used this as a test of his sincerity.

    Don't sleep on this Bill Burr clip, y'all. It's bold, sharp and deep.

    I love when white comics make fun of what they know (themselves), not so much when they start making fun of what they don't know (others).
