It’s a shame Dave Chappelle died immediately after Chappelle’s Show ended. He sure was a funny guy when he was still alive!

That's my takeaway too. I did listen to his stand up and while i didn't think it was horrible, i had to remind myself that it's the guy from the chappelle show, otherwise i wouldn't have listened to it. Also really interesting how Neal Brennan is still really funny and i like his stand up a lot. Maybe it is just a Seinfeld situation
