That one guy having an out-loud existential crisis about the trailer hitch balls making the car the dick 🤣

[Canny-Octopus]

"She goes by they/them. This woman, this señorita goes by they/them." 😄 Perfect.

[Mahogany]

"The dudes usually leave me alone, out of confusion or respect; I don't know." Lol

So nice to hear legit jokes about the trans experience. Its been like 7 years since Ive come out and only within the past maybe like 2 or so years have I been able to listen to others on large platforms talk about experiences I can relate to. Like that werewolf joke fvcking GOT me 🤣 soo true.

I know no matter what we do or say, how much data is collected, etc etc, transphobes will never change their minds. If you dont get it, then the content just isnt for you. & thats ok. You have the worlds collective knowledge and entertainment on the tips of your fingers. Youll find what you like if you look for it.

What's next? Divorcing your dog? Bahahahaha best joke I've heard in a long time

[cloudundergroundsk]

river butcher would be the sickest band name, pretty much any genre. top tier

[rheabliss]

This is the most comfortable I have ever seen river doing stand up !!!, and their jokes and confidence were amazing.

[landonbellville]

I swear River is right on about Ohio rural vibe, the truck nuts, the eyelashes on VW, the magnesium metal in a bonfire lol

Just finding River, but I’m rooting for them! This was such a well written, funny set and hope to hear some more

[RedNucleus]

Wow, I was a casual fan of Rhea, fell off the follow for a couple years, stumbled across this, and had that “Oh! ok, well good for them” moment.

[JaneRLeBlanc]

We need phone cases that say "My Sadness Machine". 😂 Great set.

[kirac.]

Been a fan of them for yearrrrs and the humor is just always on target!

[hoardlydad]

I've been a big fan since the very early days of PYHT. It's been cool to follow them on their journey. They crushed it, this special was fantastic!

[HunterJE]

Fantastic set, so glad to get to start my weekend off with this!

[TheBestTamara]

No idea they were so damned funny! I used to watch "Adam Ruins Everything" and there River was! As Adam's sister. "Everyone wants the privilege of paying for their torture, " "The pandemic was so long I transitioned, " ... I love them!! Keep it up, River. You are an inspiration and damned funny.

[AliceInCobains]

i'm a baby wannabe standup comic who also uses they/them, and seeing this representation and River killing it, actually just pushed me to really pursue it.

[nickedwards]

Just heard her on Spotify for the first time and am thoroughly impressed! Typically not enthralled with female comedians, but she is incredibly funny and talented ❤❤

[tinyghostahmi]

So happy to see them being so comfortable on stage, it translated into their jokes and was such a good set!

[sharonpaulsen]

This could be developed into a full blown hour special on Netflix! The timing and the story building … this content is ready for the arena/tour… no brainer, IMO!

[athens]

I've been enjoying River's work for years, so exciting to see more from them!
