In the interests of making you watch Nikki Glaser’s awesome (and we use that superlative very sparingly around here) comedy special Bangin’ rather than another screed that dissects the art form of comedy in these times, we’ll try and keep this brief.

1) In case you didn’t notice, Nikki Glaser is as sharp (with a wonderful dash of silliness) as ever and this hour is a wonderful exhibition of that notion.

2) Bangin’ is undeniable proof you can be edgy with the current “woke culture” and still be so damn funny. Glaser starts off so blue as she opens up on an in-depth, explicit bit on blowjobs and then, talks candidly about sex for the whole hour. Speaking your truth (with a bit of brilliant comedic finesse) rather than going for shock seems to be the magic ingredient with Nikki on Bangin.

3) Nikki Glaser: Bangin’ is, in our opinion, the best stand-up special, out of literal dozens (including all the ones with the biggest names in comedy), from Netflix this year.

So, go watch Nikki Glaser’s Bangin’ on Netflix, streaming now.

We watched Nikki run this hour leading up to this taping and it was something special (you know, like the notion that’s in the title of a “comedy special”). There was a purity in her jokes (certainly not in material though as it is wonderfully, hysterically blue) in that there was seem as perfectly crafted and delivered as they possibly could be and that every transition was seamless, etc. etc.

If you think that Nikki’s roasts are great, we’d bet you’ll thoroughly enjoy seeing her when she has free reign to sink her comedic teeth into whatever she wants.

So, we’ll be excited to for Oct. 1st when Nikki Glaser: Bangin’ drops on Netflix. Get a taste of Bangin’ with this trailer.
