Ronny Chieng: Asian Comedian Destroys America

I had never heard of this comedian before,and just stick it on as something to watch with dinner. Found it absolutely hilarious, as did my parents that were visiting. We're not from the states, but still found the material really entertaining.

Definitely recommend, and I'll need to find some of his other stuff online.

The second of my double feature the other day was this new comedy special from Ronny Chieng, the Chinese-Malaysian stand-up comic. I had seen that it dropped, but it didn't really register since I didn't know much about him, other than he was in "Crazy Rich Asians" and played a supremely unlikeable character (my least favorite from the books). After watching "American Factory" and an investigation about what happens when Chinese and American cultures bump up against each other, this was a nice and light (and interesting) segue, with hilarious observations and jokes about his experience as an Asian comedian in America and how different it is over here than in the states. Worth your time to check out, and another in a fairly long line of really funny comedy specials on Netflix.

Ronny uses his hyper style of humor to talk about political issues and everyday situations. Known for his roles in Crazy Rich Asians and The Daily Show, Chieng brings his overall witty takes on America as a whole.

Made me feel Red White and Blue all over in the traditional sense of laughing at our failings while seeing them as an opportunity to do oh so much better! I'd like to think that I would have held that subway door for him but suspect that while I am just not that American I am grateful that another is! Please keep us laughing and thinking!

As a hardcore Ronny Chieng's fan, I've seen some of the jokes before in his past shows here and there. But most of the stuff are new materials and kudos to the sharp accurate yet sarcastic spin on politics, Asian identity and America.
