It’s surprising how blatantly obvious most all of his material is to me, but then, I’m really old. Perhaps all these blunders are being made by 22-year-olds who haven’t had things fall apart around them multiple times.

Mickens is pretty young.

Also hilarious.

What might be under-appreciated is his low key insertion of the narrative of being a black man in America. It is usually super fast (among an already dense and rapid fire delivery), but the audience usually recoils a bit.
