The thing with Dave is that he's clearly past his best as a comedian - to be clear, I thought this was true before any of the transphobic stuff happened, his material since his comeback just has not come close to what he did at his peak - so playing to a combination of older millenials and Gen X-ers nostalgic for the time when he was the best comedian on the planet and easily satisfied bigots is clearly a good career move for him.

John Mulaney is weirder because it does not make any sense for him to do any of this from a career point of view, so the only explanation is that he's doing it because it's some point of principle for him, and more generally because he's a standup comedian and most if not all standups are scumbags who cannot be trusted.

Chapelle is indeed past his prime (his last special did not have a lot of laffs and was, oddly boomer-humor) but the problem for him is also that his show/ensemble was good and his standup isn't.

It bums me out because there are quite a few no-name junior comedians out there funnier than Chapelle, and this douche gets the million dollar specials $$$.

His early 00s standup specials are really, really good. Especially Killin' Them Softly. He was legitimately a great standup in his prime.

yeah I'm genuinely baffled by the choices Mulaney has been making. I mean, some of them can be explained by drugs, but not so much this one

Do you know what kind of show it was?
Like I can't imagine Mulaney's hiring all the people himself at any rate, but depending on where it was (like a club or a stadium), or even the type of show it was (festival, multi-person event or solo), I doubt he had much if any decision on what was going on at all.

I know that my understanding of the business side of comedy is definitely outdated, but I can't imagine so much has changed for it to be all wrong? (i'm honestly not sure though which is why I ask, tbh;;)
