gen z are not 'sensitive' #standupcomedy

fearless comedian does joke about diana in brighton. (come see me on my uk tour in june 2023!!)

On a related note: Every single time an older person complains to me that "kids these days are so obsessed with these singers", I remind them that their generation had Beatlemania and that the Elvis cospla– fan club is still very active today (there's even one in my city that gather annually).

Audience didn't even want to laugh when he said Princess Diana. Proved his point perfectly.

The concept of every generation being sensitive about different things is actually kinda brilliant. It changes the perspective of the conversation in a way that, I think, is very productive.

[jamminoutrexan]

The statement about generations all being sensitive, just about different things, actually makes a lot of sense and seems to check out, though. I'll be holding onto that

My bf's uncle who was going off about how sensitive our generation is got SUPER offended when I said Jimmy Buffett sucked

[pechondelgado]

For the older generation it's The Beatles. Tell anybody over 50 that the Beatles suck and new music is better.

I didn't know how your style would translate to stand-up but this stuff looks like great fun, keep it up man!

[WakerStaker]

It's so refreshing to see a younger comedian able to laugh at ourselves without being a dick about it. A lot of comedians don't know how to tell jokes without being offensive and just say "people are sensitive."

[maskedduelist]

Every style finds a way to come back again. ...Even Princess Diana's haircut.

Next, men's high-wasted pants, please and thank you.

Boomers will say gen z are sensitive about the tiniest things then get upset when the barista at Starbucks has a piercing visible

[atoucangirl]

older generations are sensitive about being told that the new generation isn't that oversensitive

[nirudangaragoda]

This is some really good stuff Finlay. These stand up shows are genuinely hilarious.

[human_being]

the american version is now we’re sensitive about pronouns but the oldies were sensitive about black people 💀

[billy]

Overly sensitive in the 20’s: maybe we shouldn’t be racist guys
Overly sensitive in the 80s: DND IS SATANIC BLACK MAGIC.

[otterpuplover]

I’ve got to be honest, one of the verrry few ppl that go from YouTube to stand up content that hasn’t made me viscerally cringe/embarrassed. Not sure how long you’ve been doing stand up, but you talk really naturally in front of a crowd!! Good work!!

"I think every generation is sensitive"
And now to watch people in the comments go "Well Gen Z is more sensitive and dumb because"...

[BF_Brix]

I’m so glad to see Gen Z coming into the comedy scene now.

[a_grape_in_space]

I thought when he said the older generations he would go "For the older generations, it's people with different skin colors wanting rights."

[rahileshanbi]

That’s actually very true, if you think about it. Every generation has aspects that are too sensitive.

[machiel]

This is so true. Some boomer will complain about everyone being sensitive and then literally cry when you make a joke about Queen Elizabeth dying.
