august b One of the best stand-up shows I've seen Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member It was so refreshing (and reassuring) to watch a very funny hour long comedy act in 2020 that did not include any reference to the orange baby throwing temper tantrums in the USA. In fact it had zero political jokes or crude humor... not that I mind either, but I'm impressed by a comedian who can still shock me and make me cry with laughter by focusing on the absurdity of everyday life. Great timing and physical comedy. The show was focused on the personality and cultural quirks of Iceland, the Nordic nations, and the U.K. but was written with a global audience in mind. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Anyone who has travelled Europe and been to Great Britain or any Scandinavian country will get a kick out of this. His accent impersonations are amazing. I have never seen anyone who flawlessly does the accents of nearly every western county in the world. Loved the show. One of the best stand ups on Netflix. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Absolutely great show, smart humour about cultural differences and very relatable if you're from a smaller country. His comedy style is just my kind of humour (I'm usually into british one but) Well done, Mr. Ari. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member And you thought Kevin Hart was bad...I get it though, Americans love the cheesy shit.
