Norm rides the fence of absurdism where he comes off sounding like either 1. mocking what a lying man sounds like or 2. just an innocent fool's random story. You never quite know which.

It was in the rehab that Norm realized he was a deeply closeted gay man 🤣🤣

lol, "This guy was a decent guy."

So great, unreal.

It was excellent! Wort every penny of the relatively expensive tickets. (I'm used to punk rock shows that cost $10 so a $50 comedy show felt like quite a splurge, but it was a lot of fun so no regrets there!)

Everyone loves a good drinking story and everyone loves Norm.

If anyone has seen his show you know he used this as part of an episode

Norm is playing a bit of a "Norm character" on talk shows because they're like 10 minute segments and he's promoting something, usually his stand up routine, so he tells jokes from his stand-up. But on Howard Stern he's a little more casual because it's just shooting the breeze for about an hour.

he never played a character or had a persona, per se. or if he did he had it all the time, in real life and in his professional life. this was the guy. how he is here is how he was socially out w his buddies, according to everything anyone's ever said. either the act never stopped or it was no act.
