Dylan is awesome. A number of comedians like Dara O’Brien, Sean Lock, Bill Bailey etc etc have all rated him in their top three, and also as a Comedian they don’t want to follow on Stage. I’ve heard numerous Comedians say if they are doing a charity gig, they don’t want to follow Dylan or Lee Evans because “you have no chance of getting the room back” Ed Byrne said, quote, “You could go on stage after Dylan Moran or Lee Evans and do your but for ten minutes and they’re still laughing they don’t not notice you”

10:00 makes me think of serious existential crisis like when my own parents are telling me I need to go and have a life instead of 'wasting it on my phone'. Now both of them have ipads and use them while they sit in front of the TV. They don't even watch the TV, they just kind of put it on out of habit and then start reading social media or browse to their favourite websites. The funny thing is that now they are super connected to extended family who live in other states, countries, etc that they might normally only talk to once or twice a year. It's been way better for them to keep in contact with friends and family because now they can share pictures, video, and ask questions. Last year my dad was cutting stuff out of the newspaper and mailing it to me in the post in case I was interested.
