Bob the Drag Queen is BACK with another Very Important Cultural Investigation™
This week, we're investigating one of humanity's oldest unsolved mysteries: what makes something funny, and why can't we seem to agree on the answer?
Featuring Kevin Hart's roast, Hannah Gadsby, Richard Pryor, a few philosophers, and one extremely unfortunate sheep, Bob sets out to explore whether comedy is about truth, rebellion, cruelty, connection, or something much harder to define.
