Eddie Strait The Daily Dot 08/01/2019

07/30/2019 Unusual comedian, reminds me of Dave Chappele - discusses hot-button issues without shrillness See more 03/07/2018 I like his style. seems genuine. I don't agree with some of his values and I think neither does he. it is a show afterall. but the way he puts it not only give you a laugh, he makes you sympathize with his some what twisted justification which i think is comedy gold.
