Hello and welcome. It is Eric Erickson here. The Eric Erickson show. The phone number is 877-9-737-3-7-425 if you would like to be a part of this here program. Happy to have you. I got to wait into dangerous ground here. So I watched the Ricky Jervase special on Netflix.

It's actually very funny.

It's funny.

A lot of it is British humor, though.

You know, I grew up overseas in a former British colony, and I had a lot of friends who

were British, and I love the British

dry sense of humor and there was there was very much a lot of the dry British sense of

humor that I think some Americans would not find funny I found I felt it very very funny and I just

it was it was humorous but there were several moments where you'd say, look, I don't want to divide the room. Don't want to divide the room. And, you know, comedians are very conscious about this that if they're going to laugh at one half of their audience, they've got to find a way to laugh at the other half of the audience as well, just so everybody get everybody laughing. Even if they're laughing at each other a little bit, but really trying to find common ground where they can all laugh.

And one of the issues, it was abortion.

I don't want to divide the room, but of course he's very pro-abortion.

He's a progressive atheist.

But then he spends a lot of his time talking about the wokes and how there's this new comedy called woke comedy.

You tried to watch some of it.

It's not very funny.

You're not allowed to laugh.

You're not allowed to offend anyone.

There were moments there, but he didn't want to divide the room.

I don't want to divide the room.

But I got to talk about red flag laws.

I have written a piece this morning.

It has rapidly gained some traction on the series of tubes known as the internet.
