I just realized that this stand-up is 20 years old 😮

i saw Russel in person one day i was working at an eyeglasses store in west palm beach florida and he said he needed new ones and then was performing that night at the improv. it was my coworkers birthday and he invited both of us to his show and took care of the seats. he was such an incredible and funny dude! can’t wait till i can see him again!

Unfortunately, I think his dad passed away not too long ago, (like less than a decade or so, if I'm not mistaken), but I do remember hearing something about that. There might actually be a Russell Peters biography where he either talks more about his dad, or has a conversation with him. That certainly would be amusing to see the 2 of them interacting together. I get the feeling his dad played a big part in how and why he became so funny. Their exchanges throughout his entire life would have given him more than enough material to create a hilarious comedy routine, which evidently he did, and it's definitely solid gold funny!
