Nick Mullen at Homers club in austin texas in february 2009
Комедия
early 2009 i was spending time with a group of comedians i met through a waiter at Opal Devine's restaurant and went to see several of their shows. After a few times they let me bring my camera along if i promised to not get in anyone's way, so i tucked myself off to the the side and just rolled chip. Nick's set was one of my favorites & i also liked the way he described his deconstruction approach to stage delivery.

I think Nick Mullen is one the best comedic minds of this generation. With that being said this is the funniest stand up he has ever done, and he will never be able to replicate it.

I love that this exists. Wish I could see other great comics early on having rough sets. It’s hilarious in its own way. He turns it around though.

This is exactly the type of guy that would move to new york and autistically imprint on a greek hamplanet and a failed lesbian jew and start a podcast where autism and honesty meets shitty "culture", envy, and equally strange characters who just so happen to be equally or more famous in spite of themselves.
The white-knuckle grip of a drowning man on that mic stand, the ponytail, the lithp, my god it's perfect
This is a great example of these jokes and writing are actually good but his delivery is killing them. Hes learned a ton.
