Is this funny?

I only lasted a few minutes. The idiotic grin is not for me.

Lighthearted special with stoner appeal
minutolo30 July 2020
In Ron's first hour-long special, we see comedian/dad/stoner Ron Funches talk about multiple things that he likes. Unlike the ordinary special where a comedian talks about politics and scandals, Funches takes energy into a hodgepodge of topics, a big one being that he is a single dad with a mixed kid diagnosed with autism.

The lovable comedian gets the special named "Giggle Fit" by his signature contagious laughter that entertains and engages the audience and viewers.

Working his way up to the big spotlight, he has worked on the Comedy Central show "@Midnight," a comedy game show involving the Internet. He was a fan favorite contestant and has since moved on to star in a voice role in DreamWorks's hit movie, Trolls.

Don't let that fool you, though. While this special is lighthearted, there are several uses of profane topics and language (ex: f###ing The Rock, spilling hot cheese pizza on your n**s, and other scenarios). As well as uses of the "N-word," but mostly used for emphasis.

Jokes that younger viewers might not get (Pogs, Wishbone, RuPaul's Drag Race) are included as well.

All in all, "Giggle Fit" is a different and unique take on the traditional stand-up formula that works for even the basic of crowds.

TL;DR : Funny special with zero politics and profane subjects.

Witty but very slow paced

The show would be great if the pause between jokes was normal, and not super extended waiting like on sitcoms. Every joke is told very slowly and this 1 hour special feels like its 3 hours. If the jokes were more compact I guess it would fit in 30min.

Watch in on 2x and save yourself some free minutes.

Also its not clean, has dirty jokes and profanity.
