      I swear I could have written that comment myself! The asthma, the laughing too hard, and the number of times I've watched it!
      The only thing I don't care for is the criticism of the restless legs syndrome. Unless you've had it, you can't possibly understand how it can be its own torture.

    June 2023;
    This is the first time l have seen/ heard this guy's performance.
    ("CASH CAB" / "BEN BAILEY" ???)
    This guy sounded familiar to me.... so l kept listening to him, trying to figure out where l had heard his voice before. After a while l figured it out@@@ 😅
    I live in a small town in Maine.... and late in the evenings the local AM radio radio station plays old recordings of radio shows from the "GOLDEN YEARS" of radio. This guy sounds just like the radio voice actors from the early years of radio......especially from the 1940s & 1950s. His vocal "stylings" are just like the radio shows l've been listening to most nights before l fall asleep. Most of the OLD RADIO voice actors had several different "voices" they would rotate in their "repetoire".
    I would be very surprised if this guy had not borrowed quite a lot of his vocal stylings from early radio: particularly from the decades before television became available.

    Years ago, a friend showed this to me on Netflix, and we fell in love with this Masterpiece of stand up comedy from one of the last people we expected to see doing stand up: yeah, "the Cash Cab guy". We rewatched it often because it was so good and quotable, but were heartbroken to find it was taken off of Netflix some time later. Yesterday, on a whim, we googled it to see if it was on any other platforms we might know of, and lo and behold, the full thing was on TH-cam, uploaded by the man himself. So thanks Mr. Bailey, without this we likely wouldn't have seen it again.
