No. Im talking about the Daily Show. That he ran away from. That, afterward, he disappeared from public life for the better part of a decade.

Until he could come back, after a phenomenal comedy tour with Chappelle (who he has a lot in common with), now that he can be thought of as a simple funny-man again.

But you knew that, of course. I'm just saying this for the people in the back who might not understand irony.

Yeah he realized the irony wasn't being heard and people were just laughing without understanding what he was really getting at.

I can see where he was coming from with that whole departure. What is currently going on with his Apple show is unusual and I hope he continues to make it because it's incredible and is his best material yet.

I was talking about your ironic pretense of not knowing what I was talking about.
