[@Hollowsmith]

Norm told comedy like a jazz musician. The difference between jazz and many other forms of music is that what comes out is spontaneity on top of a plan, rather than just a plan. Jazz musicians know the melody, but play with it in real time to make it feel loose. Norm knew the key concepts of a story he has to narrate leading up to a punchline or joke, but he plays with the journey there, each time in a slightly different way. Then the third element was he was authentically edgy in real life. Before he "got cancelled" for ridiculous reasons, he willfully lost his podcast's sponsors for the sake of comedy. Before that he willfully got himself fired at SNL for the sake of comedy. Then he returned to the show and sabotaged the show in his monologue as his revenge lol! Before all that back in the 80's he toured America with Sam Kinison at the height of Sam's insanity. Before that he was a highschool dropout that spent nearly a decade doing a mix of blue collar work like logging, and even straight up street crime with jail stints! He gambled away his life savings 3 separate times! The man was good friends with a legit country outlaw like Billie Joe Shaver and was raised on a rural Ontario farm by a very old dad and his World War 2 buddies around. The man even faced a decade of cancer and his own death without ever bringing it up or seeking sympathy. His life could and probably should be a movie. A genius, a clown, and a wildman, all competing inside the same head. Will never be another like him.
