Mark Dolan at Comedy Unleashed

[@Con213]

Wow! Who would have thought that the bloke who hosted Balls of Steel 20 years ago was just as hilarious as he wasn't back then?

[@samh-n2368]

Surely the better line is "Richard, always a dick"?

[@RicardoPetrazzi]

😆 too obvious (still funny though)

[@panderjitsinghvv8199]

Everything I know about dating agencies I learned from watching Hitchcock movies.

[@thejedsterYT]

Superb! An extra daft dose of Dolan. 👍

[@owensmith4651]

Stick to the news, Mark, in my humble opinion

[@andrewnorris2]

This guy is just so funny. I think I'll try to schedule my next trip to England to coincide with a performance of his!

[@DavidHeffron78]

You'll have a long wait. He only plays safe spaces.

[@andrewnorris2]

@@DavidHeffron78 I'm in no hurry! And what would be an unsafe space, as you seem such an authority?

[@FordPrefect-Earth]

What time does the comedy start?

[@stupidhandles]

About 16minutes after the start of this video

[@IIChristisKingII]

He is not for you and that is ok, you will be fine.

[@FordPrefect-Earth]

@@IIChristisKingII Thank you for the reassurance!

[@ND1966p]

Ahhh love him

[@ramalama9650]

Andy? Erm, Prince Andrew?

[@DD-th5tu]

Bet he never let anyone call him Andy though, he only answers to Andrew or Mr. Epstein's guest.

[@julesverne2509]

yes, he brought the drugs, just like he said.

[@onlychap]

Were you under the impression that all comedy has to be provable fact?

[@RegHoldsworth-ri7hh]

I will never get this time back.

[@DavidHeffron78]

You don't get any time back. That's the linear nature of existence.

[@IAMStormyNautilus]

I think that watching comedians online has kind of naturally filtered who we see and who we don't, so that only a select few are widely visible. So, it makes me a little sad to see comments about this guy being unfunny. Sure, some stuff didn't land and the improv was a bit rough at times. Overall though, I think he gave it a good effort and I was certainly smiling more than not. I'd give him another go, 100%. Fight on, Mark!

[@DavidHeffron78]

He's nothing special. He can't play normal comedy clubs.

[@aardvarkmindshank]

Well that was awkward.

[@julesverne2509]

So yall have that Richard problem in the U.K. too?

[@paulbradley9912]

I wan to say mercurial, but I never felt a single emotion.

[@FraserBailey-jm5yz]

He's pretty funny, for the most part. Am I to understand that Mark was originally a comedian? I didn't know that.

[@DavidHeffron78]

Nothing special.

[@eyeguy51]

The ultimate oxymoron: contemporary British comedy

[@skymanifest8339]

Yeah, we Brits should learn from great contemporary American comedians like Joe Rogan, Andrew Schulz, and Tony Hinchcliffe...

[@eyeguy51]

@@skymanifest8339 Great idea there! Dave Chappelle would be a good start as well. Actually, you do have one, Ricky Gervais!

[@MikeHetherington-g6e]

Somebody could find you funny if they tried hard enough 🫡 thank you for your service

[@eyeguy51]

@@skymanifest8339 I didn’t realize that Rogan was a comedian, but Dave Chappelle certainly is. Actually, you do have one good comedian, Ricky Gervais. All the rest that I’ve seen really suck.

@@eyeguy51 Maybe you don't realize you're supposed to laugh, because they don't have a laugh track?

No wine needed to have a good laugh... Thank goodness no crack either

He needs better material, I dont find him funny at all-infact hes borderline boring.

[@MikeHetherington-g6e]

It’s nearly 3am and this is helping with my insomnia, I might put it on loop! Less painful than the Jonathan Kogan act posted a few weeks ago, that was just confusing! But fair play to him for trying, only was to improve!

Oh dear. How embarrassing.

Mark Dolan at Comedy Unleashed. 1823pm. 1.8.24. as JCC iterated: I'd like u o be. funny all the time. I, on the other hand, have never been amusing. Ask anyone. Has MZF wandered down and done a stint, here?

[@DavidHeffron78]

Alright, I suppose. Nothing special.

[@muninraven3327]

A perfectly reasonable and astute response. Nothing more or less. Nice.

[@SMacCuUladh]

Not sh1te either though.

[@DavidHeffron78]

@@muninraven3327 well my real thought was "is it possible that, upon realising they are not brilliant at stand up, they've leant into the conservo-sphere because there are less comedians there, so they'll get more work"?

[@muninraven3327]

@@SMacCuUladh Already expressed in the initial comment.

[@muninraven3327]

@@DavidHeffron78 This guy is a run of the mill establishment "Conservative", as far as that word means these days. He's a part of GB News. The one plucky thing he did was once host the Balls of Steel TV series. He is almost the undiluted poster child of milk toast failing, when it comes to modern day conservatism verses much older traditional standards. A try hard at the weak (again, modern) notion of "edgy". It's all a little embarrassing to me, but I thought your comment was simply on point and true. Free from any outside clutter. A lovely and rare thing. Wished it stayed that way. I'm moving on, so cheers and respect. Hope you enjoy this fine Sunday evening.
