Ricky Velez: Here's Everything

Okay so on vacation I decided I'd give this a try mainly due to good word of mouth but this guy really is incredible he tells relatable story's and is nonstop hilarious if I could give any criticism Id say he needs to decide who he wants to be because he goes from telling cute story's about his son one minute to using f bombs the next but that's the only thing.

I don't know who's drinking the kool-aid in the comments below but this special is outstanding. Tickles to stomach that erupt into bursts of laughter every bit. The stories are relatable and clearly true. This is an underrated special. Anyone who doesn't get it should leave.

He just reminds me of hanging out with your friends telling stories, cracking jokes... he's a pretty good storyteller with some solid wit. I'm rooting for him now! Nicely done kid!

His set has some good stories with really good jokes in them. I didn't like the opening bit so much, but the rest of it was pretty good. Sort of reminds me of Jim Jefferies, who I like a lot - some down-to-earth stories told in a funny way. The best section was later in the show, when he talks about growing up and rich people/poor people. The best parts in there were the ones about pajamas and his grandmother. I'd give that whole section an 8.

We encountered Ricky most recently as the opener at a John Mulaney show. I remembered him from the Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore where, if I'm honest, I didn't find him that funny. I actually turned to my wife and said, I don't love this guy. What followed was 5 of the funniest minutes of comedy we've seen. He absolutely killed. Funnier than Mulaney (that night) by a long shot. When we got home we immediately looked him up to see if he'd done any recorded specials and found this. To say he's matured (comedically) since Wilmore's show is an understatement. His comedy now is self-depreciating, silly, and absolutely hilarious. One of my favorite comedians working today, easily. Highly recommend this show.
