What's even more impressive than his ability to write these jokes is his ability to tell them all for an hour without having to pause to recall any of them.

Yes CHIP it’s called being a “ stand- up comedian “. What you do is write jokes( hopefully) and stand -up, then repeat them out loud to an audience. Next we’ll have ice cream......... This guy is not even funny,not at all,that’s why he died the death.

"I once put instant coffee in the microwave and almost went back in time."

What a comic genius!

Steven is a comedian both my old mother and I could both laugh at till we had tears in our eyes. He’s the modern master of one-liners.

Max is right. The proximity of the two contradictory bath jokes was intentional. The juxtaposition of the jokes is meta (self referential) humor.

one of the best ever!

See this...this steers it 😂😂😂😂 what a smartass I love it.

1:16 is brilliantly funny.

Not who cares- healthhavencom's point is absolutely correct. It was an imperfect moment from a typically perfect comedian. No big deal, but HH, it was the first thing I thought when he said it- so much so, that I began reading the comments at that point just to see if someone else noticed... Great minds think alike!

His IQ must have been over 200

Oh, busted!
