Neal Brennan: ‘Chappelle’s Show’ to Netflix’s ‘Blocks’

<p>Neal Brennan has always felt like an “outlier” in the comedy world. He’s a successful stand-up who’s still best known for co-creating ‘Chappelle’s Show’ and as he jokes in his latest special ‘Blocks’ on Netflix, he’s often the least famous comedian in a room that contains some of the biggest comedy stars on the planet. In this episode, taped before Dave Chappelle’s most recent SNL monologue, Brennan talks about trying to get to the bottom of what’s “wrong” with him on stage, why he still thinks the “old Kanye” is still in there somewhere and what he’s learned helping others comics achieve some of the greatest work. He also goes deep on the origins of his creative partnership with Chappelle and shares his thoughts on the controversies that have consumed his friend in recent years.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Get tickets for Neal Brennan’s upcoming stand-up tour at <a href="https://www.nealbrennan.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">nealbrennan.com</a></p><br><p>Follow Neal Brennan on Twitter <a href="https://twitter.com/nealbrennan" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@nealbrennan</a> and Instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/nealbrennan" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@nealbrennan</a></p><p>Follow Matt Wilstein on Twitter <a href="https://twitter.com/mattwilstein" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@mattwilstein</a></p><p>Follow The Last Laugh on Instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/lastlaughpod/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@lastlaughpod</a></p><br><p>Highlights from this episode and others at <a href="https://www.thedailybeast.com/franchise/the-last-laugh" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Daily Beast</a></p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
