Drew Lynch - Speech Therapy vs Regular Therapy

[@disciple5150]

A big factor in comedy is timing. The fact that he stutters and still has great timing is a true testament to how talented he is!

[@ChefGoreb]

So true, came to say the same. I am also amazed in how I keep forgetting and stop noticing that he has a stutter, and suddenly when it is very obvious again I realize wow I completely blanked it out for a period because I focused so much on his jokes and perfect timing. Had a really bad stutter myself when I was young, a speech therapist fixed it though, using very similar lines, I always had a laugh and remember those sessions to be a lot of fun.

[@disciple5150]

@@ChefGoreb I’m glad you were able to overcome!

[@Eyrie007]

Even during his first live AGT show his timing was insane and his impediment was much more noticeable. It's pretty awesome to watch.

[@d0shie]

As usual, he never fails to utilize his stutter for his sets. However, I REALLY like that he gives equal attention to every member of the audience. You can see him turning to a different direction every now and then. He really knows how to work the crowd.

[@LO-dm6uf]

Watch his 5 minute videos of his live stand up shows on his KZbin channel, he's an AMAZING improviser and makes a whole show out of the audience on the spot

[@Eclipse-lw4vf]
