I haven't followed Maniscalco's stand up in general, but I caught a glimpse of this and got intrigued. The 'reservation' bit was hilarious, I reposted it, kept using it in a few of my general convos, and couldn't wait to watch the whole thing.

When I finally got around to it, I think the show started pretty well. The throw back to when people 'dressed up' to go out was nice and nostalgic, some good relatable relationship stories, and his demeanor for the show was pretty amusing. Laughs in the crowd, all was good.

By half way mark, he somehow lost the crowd. I think it was around the 'dog' story. From there on, everything became less and less relatable, and the crowd kept getting quieter and quieter. Couple of mild laughs here and there, but overall was very hard to watch.

Would def recommend watching the first half of this, but then go back to whatever you're doing and leave the second half to play in the background. Definitely interested in watching more of his previous material now though to see what I've been missing.
