[@markrandall7400]

I have been to the show and it was a small venue in San Diego. Some dude got up and busted ass. I mean it was fucking loud and then the whole place smelled like ass .He said things that I never heard before that same smile. He came unglued and let it fly for a few minutes.

[@privatename3621]

I wasn't sure I got this particular joke, even after playing it twice. I guess it means he must be "seeing" many different men and can't keep track of all their names? And while "blaming" some guy named Jeff, he's thereby implicating himself as gay? If so, its very subtle joke, but also not terribly funny. More of a weird head scratcher were everyone looks at each others and "thinks" they understand the joke, but isn't quite sure.

Never thought anybody could be funnier than Kinison but he's changing my mind. Maybe his "high points" aren't quite as high, but his sustained brilliance over an entire set (and at this point, many years) is remarkable. It's going to be interesting to see if he ever "pivots" away from this style, I don't know if it's sustainable "forever". Even Howard Stern did a complete 180 away from his mean-spirited insult comedy style, but his repertoire was quite a bit wider. This guy has mined material from areas that no comedian has dared to tread before.
