Honest. Brutally at times. But honest.
Telling America s Story. even when it s not that much of a fairy tale per se.
Live from his new residency in Austin, Texas. at the legendary STUBBS BBQ, Chappelle ripped into the state of American affairs. When a hero stumbles. the cowards rejoice, he says.
Then, he addresses his own issues as someone who caught the COVID-19. Cowards rejoice at a time like this because they are so invested in being afraid. When I said I had the CORONA VIRUS, the majority of people wished me well. But then there were some - the cowards - who said, you see that Dave Chappelle? That s why we stay inside where it s safe and WE never try anything.
