I'll stay here in Ecuador where women are kind, feminine, and don't show their ass whenever they have a thought. But you do you, Jezebel. At Zanies Comedy club in Nashville, Tennessee in or around 2005, Mr Black was not this crude and lewd; personally he was a pleasure to talk to and be around. In this video, he was crass and lewd. It's filled with gratititous vulgarity, as I imagine you are too. Vete a el Diablo, maldita sea. O quizás eres de el Diablo??? Yo no importo.

I finally gave myself permission to sell the house where I grew up in order to open the shop of my dreams that'd I'd been envisioning for 20 years. The space was renovated, the materials and machines were being set up, the necessary 'props' were in place and the OPEN sign went up January 13, 2020, and we got the shut down notice March 15th! I was able to struggle thru a year and the greedy landlord - the building had been vacant for three years before I spent over $20,000 renovating it and moved in - wouldn't say one word to me, other than to notify me I had 36 hours notice before he intended to take possession of the building and my merchandise, machinery and stock. Fortunately my contractor and his nephew showed up the Sunday before the landlord was to take possession with a trailer and we got the vast majority moved out and into my garage. Ultimately I was forced into bankruptcy and am still dealing with the loss of a life's dream, the financial losses and the related mental anguish. I'll close proudly stating that I was among the initial 500 children to be given Dr. Salk's vaccine thru the Navy's dispensary system.

Same here. Grew up in Kemp Mill. I didn't go to Springbrook HS like he did, though. His old neighborhood, Burnt Mills, is separated from mine by Northwest Branch and a few hundred yards of forest. Rachel Carson lived just to the north of his neighborhood for much of her life. I'm 9 years younger than Black, but I knew people like him growing up in MontCo. Not sure why, but there are a ton of smart, sardonic humans in suburban MD. David Silverman, who helped create the Simpsons and directed numerous episodes, lived nearby and was a classmate for years. I especially love Black's sense of outrage at the stupidity of the country, which really comes through here in the piece on vaccines. Like George Carlin he had that sense of righteous indignation that burns brightly. Unlike Carlin in his last couple of misanthropic decades, he actually wants us to do better, not crash and burn. He's like Carlin without the wordplay and with more hope mixed in.

I'll never forget watching the reflection of his watch from the spotlight , back and forth. on the ceiling. Thank you Lewis, for making a Vietnam vet w/ Parkinson's disease, laugh and I mean forgetting about his troubles laugh, in ways i was never able to create. Thank you sir.

Love Lewis. He does a lot of excellent work too. He often does events where proceeds go to charity. And he doesn’t just phone it in because he’s not making anything at those events. I went to one such event. Just so happened to be across the street from my home, which was phenomenally convenient. He was out there on stage working it for 2+ hours. Great performance. Gave 110% for a charity performance for the homeless. Excellent human being.

Thank you Mr. Black. For all the comedy you've provided through the years and all the truth that you've told. hat's off to you And wish you the best

Lewis.... I ADORE you!! This was the belly laugh I needed today. You are fabulously talented and a favorite of mine for certain.

Seriously, Lewis is the best. Been watching him for years.

" If it weren't for my horse..". TY.

Lewis, such a legend. Was lucky enough to see him live in Fort Worth at Bass Hall many years ago, and still talk about that show. Such a great comedian who I’ve been a fan of since I first got into comedy. Each special is better than the next, and absolutely loved this. Lewis, stay awesome man. We all love you too 🙏🏼

Lewis Black understands the world and explains it better than anyone else. He is amazingly transcendant; people I know who are 180 degrees out from me on almost every issue imaginable love him every bit as much as I do!

Carlin is better at that

Thank you for this new comedy stand up special Lewis! God bless you and your mom who lived to 103 years young! Love the paintings in the background. You are forever one of the true kings, storytellers and masters of comedy. Forever a icon and legend, right up in the same league as George Carlin, Richard Pryor etc. 👑💎🏆⚜️🎥🎬😆😂😂 🎙️ ❤ ♥️ 🖼️

Wait for the end of the credits. The photo of his parents is beautiful ✨ Long live Jeanette!

Definitely! My husband and I saw him tonight in Reading, PA. The audience were laughing hard, we all were. He was just brilliantly funny. And the time flew by so fast and before we know it he was done. I could have had listened to him for a whole lot longer that's for sure. This was the second time us seeing him live and we were not disappointed.

You know what Lewis... That fact that you have material in 2020.... FORTUNATELY I need you!!!

I saw Lew in Richmond last May and have never laughed so hard. My first outing into a crowd, since the pandemic started. I also work in healthcare and it had been a long 2+ years. Thank you Lew!

As always, an epic show and performance by @Lewis Black, and I sincerely appreciate you making this available for those of us who could not be in attendance when it was performed live. We all have a little rage monkey inside of us, climbing the bars of our mental cage at times, and occasionally you just have to let that crazy little flucker OUT just to see what sort of chaos ensues!

We had scene you on March 12th at Elgin Community College, the day before New Buffalo. We were lucky we got to see you. Jump to May 20th, 2023, College of Du Page, our 5th time seeing you. Thanks for coming back. Thanks for the entertainment!

That was really great, Lewis. Got choked up at the end. I've seen you live more than any other comedian and I hope to continue doing so. God bless you.

Lewis is a legend. Times change, and Lewis has been there through all of it to help us make sense of, and laugh at, all the madness.

I'm deeply grateful lewis black is with us saying what needs to be said

No Lewis, America needs you!! 😊 Thanks again for your candor and the frankness of your thoughts. You are a treasure!!!

Besides being one of the greatest ranters I've ever heard, Mr. Black is intelligent, articulate, and has an uncanny ability to cut straight to the heart of the matter - and then rip that heart to shreds! Truly one of the best standup comedians of all time.

I love Lewis' stream-of-consciousness delivery. It's what my internal monologue often sounds like.

No. We don't just hear the joke, Lewis. Your wit makes a difference to many of us. We need you to get through this. Hopefully, you change minds. Let's hope. We love you!!! ❤️

EVERY time...EVERY TIME I take the BULL by the Horns with Lewis Black...& TRULY listen to his his superb invective & WIT!! Jeez, a regular reminder that we are all SO the SAME!!! LOVE THE MAN!

I love you to pieces, Mr. Black! Thank you sooooo much for releasing this on KZread. I thoroughly enjoyed this hour and am sending it to all my friends!

You're a really special guy, Lewis. I'm glad we've been able to listen to you write on stage.

I love Lewis's raw honesty. I have seen him preform live 3 times and always go away with so much to talk about. He makes you think and I love it.

i havent seen him live yet but i would love to cuz he reminds me of myself w/his rants. Im gonna record my rants so i can laugh at myself before i let my posse hear it

No lie: at the exact moment he talked about cats sh**ting in a box, my cat was sh**ing in a box ... that's some next-level synchronicity, Mr. Black! One of my all-time faves - an American treasure!

Omg, Lewis has a very sweet side that he let out on this show. Love this man.

One of the first comedians to really get me into loving stand up comedy and so happy to see him still making specials. Can’t wait to see you live in 16 days!!

How I love this man- the joke about the cumin is literally the hardest I have ever laughed in my lifetime. So grateful for you and that you uploaded this to KZread.

Wow, this was fantastic. Possibly my third-favorite special he's ever done. What an incredible career he's had. Bravo, Mr. Black!

If no one has ever seen Lewis' early HBO specials, I cannot recommend those enough. He is my absolute favorite stand-up entertainer of all time, and I love that he has returned to do this. I wish that man would live forever, just to hold up a mirror to us all so we can laugh.

Yes! The Broadway special he did that was on HBO around 2003 was gold. It’s still my favorite of his to this day. It got me through a rough patch in my life. Laughter truly is the best medicine.

He has actively filled a void where Carlin and Izzard left. Humor created by intelligent and perceptive humorists. The deep dives on the intricacies of human existence while making many of us laugh out asses off is a true talent. I, for one, am greatly appreciative of being able to laugh and learn simultaneously.

Lewis Black is the greatest comedian we currently have. thanks to George Carlin endorsing him.

I’ve been a longtime fan of Lewis from his stand up, his rants on The Daily Show and anywhere else I find him but the closing here was the most heartfelt and vulnerable pieces I’ve heard from Lewis. Thank you for making us laugh and for representing common sense, Lewis!

Rochester, MN at Mayo Clinic. Right before flying to NY to be with my dying dad. Lewis has a special place in my life.

I love this man. I can watch his specials over and over and I laugh just as hard as the first time.

Perfect. Thanks, Lew! I’ll be able to listen on the way home from work tomorrow! Woohoo!! - Eric Markley

I absolutely love this man. I drove 4 hrs with a broken axel to see him perform at my alma mater and he did not disappoint. And to this day, everything is pertinent. His opener about his mother was especially deep as I navigate a similar situation with my gma.

Louis- I've been meditating for my entire life and I didn't suffer being alone. In fact, I got cancer in 2017 and had akready been alone in my apartment for 3 years before the pandemic hit. So I was kind of comforted that everyone else joined me at their home! But seriously. Meditation is a deep understanding about ourselves. It transcends "mental" or emotional problems, believe it or not. You become deeply acquainted with yourself simply by making the effort to be present and understanding that awareness is fundamental- not the mind and its thoughts! Mind is suffering. No- mind is health. Its as simple as that believe me.

A little schroom helped me understand you are what you think and this moment in silence is all you need . Oh, and how Love is the driving force in this universe.

This was so great! it was also a reminder of how fortunate my path through the pandemic was. Thanks Lewis!

This man is a genius!! If he did an hour a day I'd be all over it !

Lewis ive been a fan since i was in middle school listening to your sets about bush on my flip phone. This is one of your best, good job!

I love you Lewis, thank you for everything you have done. Your one of my greatest heroes, right there with George carlin and Bill hicks.

Man, I really forgot how much I missed Lewis. Havent checked him out in a few years, but he was on HEAVY repeat on my old mp3 player in the late 2000s early 2010s. Still top tier.
