Love Dave's reaction when the late great host Ed McMahon mentioned Sinbad. The first time I saw Dave was on Def Comedy Jam back in '93. I laughed so hard yet still felt enlightened. Chappelle will always be a true comic icon who is unafraid to take risks. He has my respect. The brilliance of his sense of humor comes from him intertwining social commentary with it. It NEVER gets old. I still LOVE the show he left behind too. Hope to see Dave live!
