His comedy feels like those late night summer where you’re sitting on those old white chair listening to your uncles telling their crazy childhood stories ☺️☺️
What a gifted storyteller. Many comedians use absurdity or outrageous exaggeration to be funny, but this man is a master at telling a story and painting a picture and walking you through a believable situation where the characters or situation is a continual punch line. BRILLIANT! Flat out Brilliant!

One of the most underrated comedic storytellers to ever grace a stage. Salute to you A.S.
