So much cross-cultural humor in this act! And the sweetest part is when he tells the story of his own immigration as a refugee with his sister and his mom. Sometimes it's hard for me to get into standup, but this seemed to fly by too quickly. Keep up the good work, you are doing it right!
I just watched this, after never having seen or even heard anything about him- not sure how at this point! But I seriously Loved him!! I laughed the whole time basically. And normally, when watching stand-up like this, you get offended at least once, lol, but not one damn time did I not laugh! Lol. He literally cracked me up the whole time! I can't tell you what my favorite part was because it was all great, but i can say my stomach was hurting with the Bells Palsey story! Of course Not because of the illness, but his whole portrayal of it! As someone that deals too much with the health system, I can truly say it was accurate! Anyway, a Must Watch! And I'm going to the next one I can find now... Loved it!!!
I just watched this on netflix and what I usually do with their comedy specials (when i don't know the comic) is I put it on until I no longer find it funny. Needless to say I don't finish most comedy specials on netflix.
I watched the whole thing. Mo is a funny, but more importanly likeable human being. As he takes you through stories about his life and experiences he is funny, witty and charming. Great accents also.

Amazingly funny, and if you're arab then this stand up special is gonna be more hilarious and insanely relatable 😂😂😂😂
I can't laugh at American or British stand-up comedians because of cultural differences. I understood it after laughing at Maz Jobrani, Peter Russel and now Mohammad. It is better to be culturally close to a comedian if you want to laugh at his/her jokes. I am not Arab, Persian or Indian. I am Azerbaijani and these cultures are closer to mine than western cultures. So if you dont find him funny enough, most probably you don't have enough information about the culture.
