Don’t watch comedy specials says Joel. They’re all fake! Or enough parts of them to make it an unrealistic representation of what a live stand-up comedy show is really like. This observation comes as the worldwide media reacts to the new Dave Chappelle specials on Netflix. Joel and Corey Hall can’t seem to figure out…

Not that he’s ugly, but comic Russ Brown returns to the show. It’s a big week, too as the Oscars just happened but out-of-touch Russ couldn’t be bothered to watch. Still, Russ gives his thoughts on Joel’s “hots”, “so-sos” and “uglies” from this year’s telecast. Who’s stock fell from the Golden Globes? Who’s rose? Who…
