Been following him for a while, both on video and on Twitter. Funny, not afraid to speak his mind, irreverent, pompous-puncturing...can occasionally be edgy, but a lot of good comics are, not afraid to poke a stick at some of the seamier sides of life. I don't agree with everything he says, but I laugh at the way he says it, and applaud the fact that he has.

And he's funny :)
