shootingstar Posted December 9, 2018 Share #1 Posted December 9, 2018 https://www.thecomedynetwork.ca/Shows/TheDailyShow/episodes?vid=1482619 His autobiography is an incredible read. (I asked for it and got it as a birthday gift.) He talks about growing up as a half-black during and just after apartheid in South Africa. As a comedian to North American audience, with this type of personal background, to me, it gives an edge to his jokes. He also was raised in a religious way..as a child he went to church, led prayers, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he cares and can't be snide and complacent like Bill Mahr (which I found his stuff was starting to grate). When growing up as a child under any circumstances, it's a description of history because a child is innocent (but highly influenced by adult attitudes around him/her) and often, has no choice to his/her circumstances in life at that age. It isn't about being politically correct, It was reality for the child. I dunno...my partner watches his show regularily in the evening. He enjoys his show. I'm asleep most of the time because I need to sleep well/enough for work the next day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
