Wizard Hello

De: Alex Koll

Narrado por: Alex Koll

On his debut album, Wizard Hello, comedian Alex Koll immediately pulls the audience into his mystical world, presenting himself as a wizard (of course) and describing the ins-and-outs of “wizard comedy,” which apparently involves telling jokes to magical crystals. From there, Koll takes us on a tour of the most surreal nooks of his imagination, spinning yarns about what Prince’s ostensibly dream-driven “1999? should have described had he actually been dreaming as he wrote it (a fight with giant lobsters and chocolate shark hands, for starters), or what Sasquatch “heavy on the sass” might sound like (“Yeti or not, here I coooome!”).

Kinda bombs. He knows it. The audience knows it.

His jokes land about once every ten minutes and it's really awkward because you can hear the live audience not really enjoying themselves and every now and then he calls them out on it. At one point he asks them to do better. I'll be asking for a refund.
