Probably one of the best stand up specials I have ever seen.


This guy is a genius, there is not much more to say that to watch it. It's on Netflix. go see it.

It's so great. Not only did he show a bit of his true self to us, he showed us a lot about the real world. He gives words to things in society you and I can't and that's what's truly amazing about his mind. What's absolutely genius is his ability communicate it so critically and creatively.

Seconded. I read on reddit it took him 3 years to come up with all the material. If that's the case, I hope he takes his time and keeps putting out stand-ups of this caliber, no matter how long it takes between them. He could die as one of the greatest of all time...

Right. I was waiting for another stand-up from him, thinking that he quit or something.

I was wrong. Very wrong. I loved this special, and I also love his cancelled TV show: Zach Stone is Gonna Be Famous.

I loved it, best standup i've seen in quite some time. It was great that it was multimedia style with comedy, music, audience interaction, self aware irony (the recurring segue one for example), etc. Just an all around hilarious show - but to be fair i've loved just about everything he's done...
