His comedy is pretty good. Not so much his old stuff but his newer stuff is amazing. Like his comedy or not, he's always had a "fuck you" attitude about this kinda stuff which is why I respect him so much. The only comedian I know that calls shit like it is and calls out other people on their bullshit without giving a shit about what he says. He's like the voice in the back of my head when I'm pissed off at something incarnate.

I followed him back on O&A and watched his small bits to his Breaking Bad stuff and everything... seen him like 5 times live. I love his body of work ... old to new.

His "fuck you" attitude is one that makes me wish I'd have a friend like Bill calling my ass out. I love it.

His roles on The Mandalorian and Reservation Dogs were both very different and very good. On the Mandalorian he plays a former soldier who is basically Bill Burr in space. On Reservation Dogs he plays a high school basketball coach with a troubled daughter.

Yeah, feels like he is walking in Carlin's foot steps but with his own cadence.
