David Letterman airs "lost" Bill Hicks stand-up

By Michael Saba on February 3, 2009 4:27 PM | Permalink | Comments (0)


Those of you who caught the Late Show with David Letterman last Friday may have noticed that a perfectly formed time capsule from 1993 was cracked open that night: previously-unaired stand-up material from funnyman/satirist/chainsmoker Bill Hicks.
Hicks' mother Mary joined Letterman last Friday, where they reminisced about the life and times of the man who self-identified as "Chomsky with dick jokes." Letterman's segment revolved around a "lost" Late Show clip of Hicks' stand-up from the early '90s that was deemed "unsuitable for broadcast" at the time. The clip shows its age a little (right down to the bit about Marky Mark), but it's excellent stuff for fans of Hicks' particular brand of black comedy:

[Los Davos]

If we're going to be ragging on comedians I reckon dave chapelle and Sarah Silverman are far better candidates; the slightly edgy Disney characters of comedy. 'irreverent black guy' and 'shrewish Jewish woman'. Highlarious.

I'm confused. You seem to have entirely missed my point, that no girls, blacks OR jews are funny.
