It was hilarious. His new material is great. I have been watching him for a long time, and he keeps getting better at performance. He is using video and music really creatively.  He also looks very healthy since he quit drinking, which he covered in his material - relatable for me. (He did a great joke that one of the up sides of quitting drinking is that now he can really feel his cocaine)

He also made some very funny Fresno jokes, which was cool to give us a little material that others would not here. He noted that he came here because it is halfway between LA and Sacramento. He can’t handle a 6 hour drive, but 3 is cool. He got everyone laughing when he described Fresno as “a place I made fun of for no reason” and he observed that when he announced he was coming here, people from here started asking him why and telling him it was terrible. These are all accurate observations - civic pride isn’t exactly a thing here.

All in all it was a wonderful show - one of the opening comedians had me rolling with one of the most politically incorrect bits I have ever heard.

Hannibal also said that he is getting ready to tape a special with this material. It will be worth your time.

Good stuff.  I’m going to a play about a gay bed and breakfast next week.  I don’t know if the B&B is gay or the owners.  But I can gaurantee that it has a dust ruffle and 17 pillows.  (this has been my attempt at a non-offensive gay joke,  I have no problem with dust ruffles, my bed has one, and 17 pillows.  I have many friends who are dust ruffles and pillows)

The comments about civic pride, and lack thereof, are quite familiar to me. When people find out that I moved from Los Angeles / Laguna to St Louis, the most common question, even of lifelong residents of this burg , is “W hy ?”

This checks out. To be honest though, there are much worse places than St. Louis. I like many areas better, but they have been steadily improving the livability of the city. Plus there are several direct flights out of Lambert (On SW, I’m not sure about the others). My brother chooses to stay for a variety of reasons and he seems to be happy. Even through the polar vortex haha
