Since we didn’t have a thread for this yet, I figured this would be a fine way to start it. Chris D’elia is being outed on Twitter as a groomer, which as one poster on Reddit quite correctly said is funnier than any of his comedy.

This person has the receipts, so many screenshots of DMs and e-mails. Christ.

    Initially I was like most of those screenshots are whatever. Standard neckbeard nonsense. Not to excuse it, but the internet is a terrible place. Then that 14 year old clip…brutal. Only gets worse from there.

    I’m delighted for him, another twat from that Rogan circle of friends who think they’ve reinvented comedy.

    Lol, fucking hell, he’s getting ruined on the twitter page!

    Homegrove Schaub is a few rungs below on the ladder imo. Wouldnt call him a comedian at all. Only thing funny about him is that he’s called a comedian. Joey Diaz said it best, if Mitzy Shore was still alive Schaub would be nowhere near the comedy store.

    If asking for nude pics on the Internet is a crime, I can see why Snidey Paul may not be ‘available’ currently.

      Lol, give yourself another 10 points for that, mate!

      A comedy thread started by Hannu can only make for unspeakable sadness

        I wanted to downvote that, but couldn’t.

        Homegrove Haha. Schaub with the cringey final words of the outro too. Poetry.

        Homegrove Chris D’elia is being outed on Twitter as a groomer

        I mean, surely that’s a necessary skill for someone so hirsute? 🤷🏼‍♀️

        Homegrove that’s kind of funny. if you had to pick a creepy bastard out of a line up, it would probably be d’elia.

        Been watching a lot of Nimesh Patel on YouTube, used to write for SNL and Chris Rock.

        Didn’t think much of the Chappelle rant, though it was straight from the heart and relevant. He’s usually much tighter when he gets into that space at the end of his specials.

        i really like him and some of his earlier stuff was hilarious. his last netflix was probably the weaker out of them all but still a lot better than most other stand ups.

        just finished Jim Jefffries and thought it was pretty good. doesnt go into any political rants like previous episodes/tv show and was really funny in places

        Not his best. I felt like he was trying too hard to undo his new rep as a woke comedian. Which he kinda got from his Comedy Central show. Several laughs though.

        Rewatched a couple Tiffany Hadish standups last night. I lol’d a lot.

          Kells77 Loved the “They Ready” special where she gets all her up and coming comedian friends to do sets. “Theeyyyy readddddyyyy.”

          Hannibal Burress (the first comedian to out Bill Cosby as a sex pest) has his new special on YouTube. It’s good stuff.

          Big fan of James Acaster, saw him in a comedy club in London in 2016 before he was well-known

            bosstrabs me too, funny bugger. Saw him in the little room at the Glee in Birmingham doing one of his Edinburgh shows Recognise…probably around that time too. Me and my other half have somewhat differing comedy tastes and she was pretty stony faced throughout. Saw him in the pub beforehand but didn’t say hello.

            New Nate Bargatze is quite good on Netflix. As far as clean comics go he’s probably my favorite.

            Also on other stand up-news Jim Jefferies announced his retirement from stand up on his podcast. He’s going to do the tour he’s contracted to do, after you can do stand up in theatres again, so when he comes to London next time you’ll know it’s his last time.

            At first I was a bit sad, but his reasoning is actually solid. “I’ve done 8 specials, and I think I’m starting to repeat myself. And covid made me realize I like being at home and not touring.” His last special was shit anyway.

            Surprisingly, Jim Gaffigan’s 2021 special is spot on. The missus played it randomly and I found myself laughing quite a lot.

            Louis CK’s latest, Sorry, is standard Louis, in the sense he opens the thing dedicating the first 15 mins to pedophilia. It’s a bit meh, but I enjoyed the covid material. Found the previous come back one better. His website has a package for all his specials for about $25.

              rhouses loved Gaffigan’s special. Can’t watch Louis CK anymore. Separating his creep from his act is impossible for me.

                Homegrove tight set, and definitely relatable… something you usually don’t get from the big hitters.

                I’m alright with Louis, what he did was wrong, but I feel he got a bit of a raw deal.

                Brian Simpson on Netflix’s new season of Stand Ups is a very good half an hour.

                Homegrove he is playing in leeds next month and was considering going. not sure if the wife would enjoy it though

                  Me thinks not.

                  He hasn’t posted a single clip from Only Fools & Horses for starters.
