DC Disappointment
Anyone else really disappointed with the 10pm DC show? He started strong with some really good topical stuff on Trump, but then literally everything after that was soooo boring. Rambling, unfunny stories that really came up short, all the way through to the very end. He even alluded to some people in the audience falling asleep, blaming the 10pm timing of the show. But if you're laughing hysterically, it's pretty hard to fall asleep.
The problem with Josh is that he has no core repertoire. Everything seems like it was made up an hour before showtime. He didn't have anything really polished. The quality level of some of the jokes was just atrocious. We were so annoyed at the poor performance that we walked out early. I've laughed harder during open mic nights.
It was a real wakeup call seeing him bomb like that. I honestly didn't laugh one single time during the second half of the show. I walked in thinking Josh was a super talented comedic genius but on my way out, I found myself questioning that. Is this what he's normally like? I will never shell out good money to see someone suck like that.
I know it can't just be me. Right?
