[@EtherealBlueRainbow]

The casual, not even smiling, tone & attitude highlight the absurdity of the situation & sells the joke. He makes it seem easy. & the jokes were genuinely funny.

[@savant_spoon_bender]

Sort of like an American leaning into a British mode of delivery.. much less animated

[@CJ-uo5cl]

It's called "deadpan"

[@EtherealBlueRainbow]

@@CJ-uo5cl LOL, that's a word I just don't think of using, because it sounds ridiculous to me, I can't help imagining a cartoon style pan going dramatic fake dead, lol.

[@conifergreen2]

Reminds me of Pat Paulsen.

[@strongholds12]

Robotic and weak

[@brandonwright1414]

That was very funny. Love the delivery. Well done

[@lajebu08]

Agreed

[@test123ok]

yes. this was brilliant. And the last joke was the most hilarious !!

[@SuperSojourn]

I hope to see more of this guy. He is understated without being absolutely deadpan. Definetly better than most of the comedians that have appeared on Stephen's show.

[@Musicluver742]

Definitely one of the better guest comedians

Stolen material though :\

I was short when I was younger, but I outgrew it.

Would you say Jason Bean... Sprouted? (I'll see myself to the door)

Jason Bean That surprise ending blew my mind.

Outgrowing your own shortness is certainly a tall order.

Very funny! Especially loved when he , with a straight face, suggests the crowd doesn't seem to follow the 1800 joke. 😂

the delivery was weirdly funny. i love weird deliveries! great jokes

The Sour Patch bit--killed. It's like watching those old Jerry Seinfeld bits on Carson, but with better video and 25 years early.

Damn he was the funniest stand-up they've had on this show, by far.

[@leeboriack8054]

This guy is the king of dead pan and sarcasm. Bravo!

[@Eliminator5555]

That last joke is a riot.

[@Jon_Dang]

They make it pretty awkward doing standup with no stage mic. What is he to do with his hands? Solid set though!

[@Craul08]

Was thinking the exact same thing. They need the mic to not make their hands look weird.

[@jachariah4694]

[@DanFrederiksen]

Comments seem positive but I didn't find it that funny. I might be jaded though.

[@NathanaelGreer]

Its even worse, this is fake.. colbert is not there its a fake setup and throw back

nathan greer true. some comedian was tearing colbert show up for that recently

Let's go Gary ...you rock

[@jaywright1368]

Love the deadpan humor. Reminds me of Steven Wright.

[@edwardallen1750]

I've been watching him on KZbin shorts for a long time it's about time he got the spotlight for himself.

[@nekkis8989]

This type of humor is just the stuff I love. Bravo and love The straight face!

[@kenb8891]

This guy is funny!

[@choforogabriel]

I hear that they 'block shoot' these, they have like 10 comedians come in at a time and they record Stephen introducing and pointing to them separately, that's why the two never showed up in the same frame. Even though people hate on Fallon the most it seems, at least he's watching the acts.

[@Lip22Gloss]

You're amazing!!!!!
