Ryan Hamilton is one of those self-deprecating comedians who seems to take glee in poking fun at his physical appearance. Take a good look at his bio page on IMDb and you'll see what I mean. It's almost as if his face is permanently contorted into that sly grin, making him an unwelcome attendee at a funeral, something he actually addresses in his routine. In this stand up special, Hamilton has some insightful remarks about his experiences in New York City, Trump's election, hot air balloons and sky diving, a rather disparate list of topics. To his credit, he doesn't unnerve one's political sensitivities with his remarks, although he mentions that he once offended a couple who were avid balloonists who took his monologue seriously. Personally, I'm glad I grew up during a time when a comedian could poke fun at something without audience members taking offense. I guess I just like to laugh.
