I saw it, first 30 minutes are lazy jokes about trans people and disabled people in wheel chairs.

The ending story is about being a dreamer and how life can change you. Mainly in the style of a TED talk, then doing a flip calling lil nas X super gay dreamer joke.

Curtain closes.

That's the special. Saved you an hour.

I haven't watched any comedian's special in 5 years because even then they were shitty bad take ted talks. Good to see that hasn't changed.
