I love the dumb Dude I Married for powering through the intense situation of jaws of the lion while dealing with lockdown two electric boogaloo but totally different because it’s two years later and while doing major emergency home repair.

(from Jan 6 2022) The Standups season three is pretty good. Brian Simpson is strong. Naomi Ekperigin took a bit but I knew her from other stuff. Skipped white dude doing a weak Norm MacDonald. Janelle James is great. Wonder why I hadn’t heard of her before*. Dusty Slay has a schitck and it got me. Melissa Villaseñor (never finished writing this)
