Part documentary, part stand-up, part concert, this special is a satisfying rollercoaster ride through a young man's love, grief and triumph. It's raw and you may feel he's processing it all right in front of you. Definitely a laugh and cry kind of comedy. Reminds me a bit of Tig Notaro's One Mississippi.

Stand-up comedy is a form of comedic performance in which a comedian stands on stage and delivers a series of humorous monologues, anecdotes, jokes, and observational humor to entertain an audience. The comedian typically speaks directly to the audience, often addressing a wide range of topics including everyday life, personal experiences, social issues, and cultural observations.
