[@DUANEYAISER]

She’s brilliant. As a fellow introvert, she’s my new best friend I’ll never talk to.

[@jonvonneumann8310]

Your mediocrity is apparent is your taste for comedy.

[@MaxOakland]

Jon Von Neumann Your is your is your is your is

[@royalalchemist6939]

Yeah, she's my girlfriend now. She'll never know.

[@Kinsey6King]

I cannot wait to not talk to her too. She is awesome.

[@hughzev2336]

Sorry to be offtopic but does anybody know of a method to log back into an Instagram account..? I was stupid lost my login password. I love any help you can give me!

[@msabolijoshi]

Her delivery is so good, so deadpan. Perfect timing

[@sugarplum5074]

She's such an impressive artist. Just discovered her tonight, currently binge watching all available content, all aces, nothing disappoints. I hope she and I never die so I can listen to her forever.

[@westsideweirdo3908]

Everything she says is spot on. So glad i found her. Now my favorite comedian

[@sparksoffyou]

A poet of census information.

[@cerebusareba2896]

That was one of the best lines. This was a great set.

[@abysswitheyes]

Omg the New York bit😂 so good. Crowd was weak...

[@RebornLegacy]

I feel like Aparna would be the COOLEST aunt ever.

[@jackiemartin7276]

What a treasure to find some of her older material! Love love love Aparna!

[@JolineAspire]

She's on a new Netflix series of stand-ups. I highly recommend.

[@joshuakamal9509]

which one please?

[@xoxolatl]

That's where I discovered her.

[@truueindeedi]

Also curious about which one. Saw a joke on Netflix's (KZbin), but couldn't find her on Netflix

[@jc45459]

She is brilliant in so many ways.

[@AmbroseReed]

the muffin kicker part really got me for some reason, hahaha

[@JolineAspire]

"Children look away!" that was funny AF

[@FanofDawn]

Right? Why is that so funny?!

[@stevenunyabidness]

“I didn’t know that about myself!”

[@shivaninaidoo2483]

The crowd is so dry. I don't think they get her deadpan tone.

[@amitalati5741]

Shivani Naidoo agree Shivani

[@betternow6755]

I thought the same, but when the camera points to the crowd, you can see there's not a lot of people, so maybe that's why

[@gisellemaillard9460]

I love her !!!!!

[@monti5483]

im laughing from behind my laptop.

[@zzzcocopepe]

Omg. That batshit-crazy insult, it hurt my stomach from making me laugh so hard

[@yoshuareece8785]

One of my favorite comedians

[@darkshadowlord2]

She's awesome and speaks the truth! Dark at times, but always funny... Makes you wonder about life with a smile on your face :)

[@SonnyDano]

the smiley face/frowny face bit is great.

[@vq2vx]

"Pigeon with a lazy eye.." 🤣

[@oy59]

great stuff! this crowd is weak

[@leetee3207]

At 14:45 you can see that there are like 10 people in the audience...

[@mbuch6873]

Holy shit. The lazy-eyed pigeon and the closer killed me! Love it!

[@erikbudrow1255]

I can definitely relate to the reality show bit and the New York breaking points bit... and I don't even live in NYC.

[@eccentriclullaby1357]

Brilliant stuff! I thought she was so funny, and insightful. She deserved more laughs from the crowd.

[@Kat_Rat1998]

That was really great!

[@celestekwasman5649]

She is insanely funny.

[@BRICTV]

Strong agree!

[@awesumpowerz6805]

She's good ... Clever ... Great stuff!

[@gogogogogirl]

Good heavens, she's genius.

[@db11697]

Poet of census information. Hysterical.

[@anothermike4825]

Keep napping girl! Love your standup.

[@AustinPSmith96]

The way I was basically screaming at her punchlines while the irl audience couldn't be bothered to wake up...

[@Senator107]

Totally brilliant.

[@sarahhambleton5146]

EXCELLENT!!!!!

[@aidendouglass]

Omgosh- she is so funny, unique and a genius.

[@joepeeer4830]

amazing

[@BethCloverfield]

Can’t tell if it’s the crowd or the layout of the venue but this comic deserves better

[@buffymuffintopz8994]

This woman is hilarious!!!

[@ryanmagiera4402]

audience not that appreciative of the good stuff

[@LittleDinkens]

seems like shes comfortable kind of upsetting the audience a tad... shes getting laughs throughout, its just a small(ish) show.. listen to the audio its recorded on like a Dell computer... she good tho

[@leetee3207]

At 14:45 you can see that there are like 10 people in the audience...

[@gogogogogirl]

TRUTH. Especially during bit about the plane ride to Australia.

[@clumsiii]

nah -- audience was fine -- small club..looked like a weeknight.. only about 20 or so in the crowd. If you went to small comedy events you'd know what to expect. just a bar. some pals. good times. i love it

[@sawdustanddiamonds99]

I think the majority of the time ppl call a crowd weak its really just that the crowd isn't as well mic'd as ppl are used to

[@stevehoge]

Can't exactly say she "killed" but there's something super-funny about her sensibility...

[@BioDeus]

Who is someone you think "killed"?

[@claudiamurray3390]

Our building is poop free 😂

[@erolsabadosh]

LOVE!!!

[@MitchKarlo]

she is awesome

[@jeric_synergy8581]

She's so sly. My current fav.

[@sandeshdias3337]

oh shes great!

[@ryanbrenner5923]

"weird bangs" bahahaha

[@friendofbeaver6636]

Nice pace. I can see myself kicking that muffin.

[@gogogogogirl]

I LOVE HER! She's my (lack of) spirit animal.

[@andrewroberts8139]

Seems like a tough place to do comedy.

[@neomayer]

yeah, my instinct was to blame to audience but it's just a really small, weird space... she killed it I thought

[@marioncondeza3173]

hi there :(

[@TheAsyouwysh]

Marion Condeza i mean :)

[@claudiamurray3390]

So you think you can exist??!! 😂 That’s not just NY, that’s our world.

[@shannonwhalen4821]

Special thanks to the videographer for throwing in all those shots of the hot girls at the bar.

[@solarprogeny6736]

Charles Puckett That is somehow extremely wholesome

[@VacantCityDrifters]

She's pretty funny now, but wow was this a rough set ... cool to see how she developed - good for her!

[@AlejandraTadeo26]

wow!😂

[@DearBusinessCoachPodcast]

❤ 😂

[@drakequill733]

Centi... I mean nephrite!!!!

[@mrozzy8582]

She's very funny.

[@cragjones1799]

shes hilarious..

[@bleedingbatho]

Is this the night her album was recorded? Sounds almost the same.

[@jazechun7184]

Is this some sort of vague ambiguous diss?

[@franco1460]

Nephrite

[@bethstar4180]

Franco woah I didn’t know that. Woah.

[@mothiestman4995]

Holy shit I KNEW I knew her from somewhere!

[@belovedconsole]

This was the best thing ever to watch on National Women's Day or whatever it's called. NWD. Not-white-dominated, lol. Anyways, this was great for this special day, thanks!

[@andym8557]

Do we have to make everything political? Ugh

[@Koda881]

I don't understand why like half these videos the audience is just quiet. Shit, I'm always I tears by the end, what's wrong with that audience???

[@kingstonmartinez5493]

JAAAAAAAAAADE

[@dianebryan6675]

Is that Jesse Thorn I hear laughing in the audience?

[@asantitracey6612]

She sounds like the cat on bojack

[@arman0612]

She's amazing but she deserves a video with better audio.

[@kinsmed]

Tiny place. A hundred cameras. ?

[@face4radio]

When I get a real crush on someone I will like slap my hand up to my mouth while I'm watching their videos Just something I'm finding out

[@aidaformulaforseduction7526]

10:00 This girl is crazy... for sure.

[@fernandohdzmatus]

Love Aparna, hate this crowd.

[@vegandolls]

this crowd SUCKS, come to Boulder and they'll be roarin!

[@heartriah]

NEPHRITE!!!!

[@michaelfromaustin]

her timing is off compared to her album. that being said, crowd sucks.

[@Loiichi]

She’s so funny!! What a lame introduction & crowd.

[@WHBJr]

Existential much!?

[@WHBJr]

Not sure if Im intelligent enough to get her!

[@LoveMeBack]

She drunk?

[@BRICTV]

Are you?!

[@alissaasmr5646]

Such a lame crowd

[@minkey2007]

If I got a dime for every female comedian that read OKCupid messages as if they were a joke she wrote, I'd be a billionaire. HACK

[@stevehoge]

Yeah but how many pronounce it "cuppid"?

[@andyblue415]

Aparna is an absolute genius. Take your ignorant nonsense and your misplaced anger elsewhere. The rest of us are laughing our asses off thanks to one of the unquestionably best comic minds in the game today.

[@wojiaobill]

yawwwwn

[@jonvonneumann8310]

Don't quit your day job.

[@pts5217]

Hipster comedy. Yuck.

[@andym8557]

Yeah, but she's still fun

[@galkanftw]

Her voice gives me a headache,,i's kind of whiny.
