Ever been so enraged in traffic you contemplated getting out of your car to flip someone off? Bobby explores this universal frustration with hilarious candor, sharing his recent experience acting as a road rage surrogate for his friend. It's not just about anger—it's about human connection in our modern world where we've traded physical confrontations for symbolic gestures.
Bobby takes us along on his recent comedy tour journey from Salt Lake City (where legendary comic Rory Scoville was performing next door) to downtown Los Angeles (where he accidentally wandered near Skid Row). The constant thread through these adventures? His unmedicated ADHD brain noticing everything from bad paint jobs in bathrooms to the psychological warfare of airplane deplaning etiquette.
The most touching moments come when Bobby reflects on the friends who supported his early comedy career—those who showed up to open mics and struggled to find positive feedback beyond "everything you did up there was English." This raw honesty about the comedy journey resonates whether you're pursuing your own creative passion or just trying to figure out how to navigate social interactions without losing your mind.
With his signature unfiltered style, Bobby reminds us we're all just trying to figure life out, whether we're giving middle fingers on highways or watching our friends chase their dreams while wondering if they'll ever "make it." Sometimes the most human response is simply acknowledging our shared frustrations and finding humor in the chaos.
Come see Bobby headline in Cleveland (May 30-31) or Austin at the Velveeta Room, and check out his Patreon for exclusive updates about upcoming shows in your city.
