yeah I'll put Carlin at 5. Segura and Burr are good, but not quite top tier.

Loved his show, but Chappelle's stand-up does nothing for me.
He has great delivery and style, but isn't actually all that funny.

I think his stand-up is much better than the show.

He needs Neal Brennan just like Seinfeld needs Larry David.

Just watched Chappelle’s stand up. Thought it was pretty funny. We’ll see on Burr’s special next week. I love his podcast but didn’t find his last special to be great.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I won’t argue with any of the comments about Chappelle on this page. To each your own.
Norm MacDonald is way up there when ranking comedians.

most people probably would, but I think he's an absolute natural at stand up.

Burr's new special is about 100 times better than Chappelle's new one.

Saw Bob Marley in Worcester, tonight. Never really heard of him, but he had people crying. Physicality was 7/10 and he left very little breathing room. Always amazes me how these people can take over a room. Go see live comedy.
