The standup of alex edelman. Lots of jewish jokes. And anti-semite jokes! Conversations about koko the gorilla... and when they told him robin williams had died. He's very animated... he never stops moving around the stage. How to deal with the haters, and nazi's... at their own meetings. Because he went to one! What to say in awkward conversations; jared kushner, and why he's so loud in temple. Alex's boston roots. His brother, the olympian. Jokes about the royal family. How hanukah really works, and why it's not better than christmas! Families, babies. Really funny. Good stuff. From new york city, on max streaming. Funny stuff. Directed by alex timbers.

Plot summary
After an acclaimed, extended run on Broadway, comedian Alex Edelman brings his solo show to HBO in an all-new comedy special. In the wake of a string of anti-Semitic threats pointed in his direction online, Edelman decides to go straight to the source; specifically, Queens, where he covertly attends a meeting of White Nationalists and comes face-to-face with the people behind the keyboards.

funny standup comic. tells it like it is.
So professional SO talented and very funny
And overall extremely entertaining, i don't know if it's the hyper polish ((that's polish as in rub till smooth, not.. You know - Warsaw haha (sorry)) after being on Broadway and all but Sheesh-what a show! And yes, I'm a Jew or more accurately Jew-ish and it should be stipulated that this adds to the experience, cause we can relate to so much of this, even with the 'ish' suffix in full bloom -and I wanna add that there's an element of vainglorious pride watching and hearing Alex, so understand there is some bias but objectively I would and will recommend this. (and of you are wondering about the 8, well... That's high for me, i reserve tens for stuff like Attenborough documentaries and thr 9s goto Rick and Morty sooo)
This kids got it. Amazing Storyteller!
I've never even heard of this guy, & now it's safe to say I'm a huge fan. I'm so happy to have found this as I needed something really good & this certainly qualifies. He reminded me of mix between maybe Nick Kroll & M. Broderick? But then I got my friend to watch it (they also loved & appreciated it) & they mentioned him being similar to the energy, wit & stage presence of Paul Reuben's & Robin Williams (I agree!).
So clever & entertaining! He mixes a good balance of important issues with great, well timed comedy. Being Jewish, Nazis etc. Tough topics & still sprinkles fun stories within other stories. I loved all of it & would highly recommend.
