A COURAGEOUS TALK SHOW!

People say talk show is an art of offending people, but there has to be a prerequisite, which is it has to be about offending people of a privileged position. If you choose to offend people of a inferior position, or the group that has always been overlooked, that is bullying, that's not art of any kind.So many Asian so-called "comedians" choose to make jokes about their parents, about how much they hate their identifies, and how they successfully "blend" into the "main-stream". That's not comedy, not art, that's sad! Senior Asians are the ones who get systematically overlooked and even bullied everyday and everywhere in American, Asian males are the people that get systematically suppressed. And "Chinese-born" has become more and more as a crime to a lot of MAGAs. Ronny Chieng, as an Asian American, finally get the gut to express his take towards some of these problems. I respect him, I solute to him.This show is a small step, but a COURAGEOUS one!

A lot of jokes based on his opinion rather than his experiences.

Some people didn't find it funny but I laughed several times throughout, and nothing he said politics wise offended me. This is definitely not his best work but I would watch another netflix special by him.Honestly I think this show suffered a bit from being rather impersonal. Like I got to the end and realised I hadn't learnt much more about his life and the people in it, which is weird for a comedian known for telling jokes (stories) about his life. There were only a few personal jokes, but on the whole there were not many, and he definitely overdid the IVF jokes.The shows biggest downfall is that half the jokes (stories) were based on his own philosophical and political musings about america and the world in general, and even though I wasn't offended by it, I can see why other people didn't find that funny.I think his performance would have been stronger if he framed each joke in relation to his own lived experiences, or the experiences of the people he shares his life with. Even more jokes about the people he randomly encounters/observes while going about his life, or jokes about (non-political) stuff he sees on the news would have brought some amusement.

Ronny Chieng is not afraid to speak his mind

This is one of those shows that will display your level of humor.Either you can take the jokes and treat them as that, just jokes or you're way to stuck up and take life too seriously.His observations are spot on from beginning to the end. I told my wife before even writing this comment that he will most likely have a few, very bad reviews from people who are way too political.His bad reviews will solely come from people who are triggered because he (very well spokenly) challenges their thoughts and they just can't take it.Time and time again I said out loud "That's a very good observation" (political or not)
