      Repent and trust in Jesus. He's the only way to Heaven. We've all sinned and deserve Hell. Sins like lying, lusting, etc. Repent and trust only in Jesus, and you will be saved! You can be saved because he took the punishment for our sins on himself when he died on the cross, just like someone can pay your speeding fine in court, and you get off free.

    This is literally beyond comedy. A joke so advanced it takes weeks to land, but so childish anyone could understand it. So over the audience's head that no one laughs until weeks later, because they thought it was so beneath their comprehension. And when everything has been done, the only thing to do is present it in a new way, everyone thought they were beyond playground humour and their lack of reaction only intensified the joke. This is the only video i think I'll ever watch that made me physically move to get off my seat because i was laughing, with discomfort yes, but it physically moved me. To the floor. Because i couldn't stand the thought of trying to tickle an audience member. Max you are truly pushing comedy into new realms.

      it’s like finding a hundred themes in a great book and acting as if they actually affect the experience or were written in intentionally

      I think that revealing it and even just knowing that it will be revealed just after the performance would have made it much less embarassing and difficult for Max, which works against the original objective. Maybe? The idea is for him to learn not to worry when he tells a bad joke and no one laughs. And since he's not gonna say "sorry for those bad jokes yea they are not my best material" after the real show, then he probably shouldn't say it during this one for the very reasons he's doing this fake gig in the first place.
