It was an amazing honor to perform on the Tonight Show! Thanks for watching, everyone!

[@benramon]

D.J. Demers bravo! super funny set!

[@Hasani751]

Dude you were hilarious!🤣👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Fantastic!

[@Sebasr151]

That was hilarious!! Congrats! What happened at the end?

[@mitcharett2586]

You rock, man! Funny set! Good luck and GOD bless.🙋🏽‍♂️

[@lnanji]

You’re a fucking gem. Incredible set.

[@jjwalker8682]

He killed it

[@mitcharett2586]

First time that I ever saw a deaf comedian on the Tonight Show or anywhere. A good first for them and the country. Dude's funny. Good set. Loved the material. Wish someone would have done this years ago. But I guess this guy was too young for "Def"Comedy Jam. Good night and God bless, ☺️

[@mah1na]

i was laughing so hard and the interpreter did such a good job!

[@scottieapplseed]

So hilarious and amazing, and showing that including people to be in on the joke not them being the joke is how accessibility really matters.

[@loveforeignaccents]

How cool and actually thoughtful for him to bring an interpreter, honestly.

[@muhammadwahyuhidayat21498]

Lmao!!!🤣😂🤣😂 #HajiBolot: Loe Ngomong apa? Gue Tuli,ya? Everyone: Iya,Kamu Jadi tuli bahasa Betawi isyarat.

[@caffeinatednation8885]

Oh, man. I can't even with your comment. 🤦🏽‍♀️

[@manilkasheran2934]

Yep...that was definitely the only reason I was staring at the bottom left corner the whole time.

[@user-qv2qf1jk5o]

Or just the bare minimum which is unfortunately rare

[@jaredknapp8886]

I frequented concerts, wore high powered head phones and shot artillery in the Army, so my hearing is shot. Now I work in manufacturing and it's always loud. We wear ear protection but it's the soft spongy type that pushes ear wax and detritus back into the ear. Long story short I constantly remind people to speak up, or enunciate, or at least use lots of lip movement. Sending love your way from mine.

[@ryannickens7848]

I know how you feel, I put some of those foam earplugs in my ears on Monday, and I haven't been able to hear out of my left ear since.

[@Hasani751]

This had me dying 🤣🤣🤣 He was fantastic!

[@ldm1947]

I LOVE this guy! He could teach a master class in non-raunchy humor.

[@ComedyFan]

Just bought tickets to see this guy live in Toronto in August. Can't wait!

[@dar_jada]

He's soooo funny! I love him.

[@mrphd2be]

🤣😱😂

[@Mr.IndianHackerFan-yu5ri]

Why do you do the analysis if there are reliable Cross Staking platforms such as oreol staking?

[@himalgaming2768]

Why trade or hold if you can start using oreol staking?

[@ltrtr17g3]

Enchiladas

[@chocolate9747]

Is the audience told to clap after every joke?? You don’t have to give him a standing ovation after each joke to keep him going lol

[@ganeshplayz9867]

Guys, why trade if you can keep reliable coins in Cross Staking?!

[@criiss._29]

please invite stray kids!

[@premiermilieudernier5960]

If you were playing hockey before your hearing loss & if you broke your nose then you might have a deviated septum which is effecting your breathing or if your jaw line is to big for your mouth your not getting enough room for sound to pass.

[@manguy2000]

The interpreter is hot...she should have done the hip walking

[@sunny5ma]

no.

[@YeeSoest]

Oh no, the deaf guy is awesome at Comedy... Now if I make him a compliment, people will just consider it pandering to people with disabilities, what do I do?

[@lb456]

Stop worrying what other people think. Or stop being a douche who says shit like this you fucking edgelord wannabe.
