What a terrible person.

When you are in entertainment you need to not distract with a shriveled monkey ear.

You are a horrible human being to make fun of a person’s deformity. You should be ashamed of yourself.

my 13 year old enjoys it; but i usually pick and choose which pieces he listens too...as there are quite a bit of off-color riffs. i find him hilarious, most of the time.

Most jokes that weren't age appropriate for me as a kid, went straight over my head.

I don’t find him appropriate for that age. Really not til 15/16 or so.

And ugh to the ear-obsessed pp. I’ve watched him for years and even saw him close enough to shake hands in person and never noticed a weird ear.

Obviously the jokes are news relevant, but I don’t want my kids learning about sex in a way that’s skewed and sarcastic and not really applicable to what their experience will/should be. Anyone else let their 10 yo watch?

OP, if you feel that way (and i feel the same way) then really, NO late night TV comedy show is appropriate for your kid.


My 13 year old watches some of the shows, but no at 10 I wouldn't have thought they were appropriate.

At 13 yes, at 10 no. There is so much in the news about racism, sex, etc and I don’t think humor is the best way for a 10 yo to encounter the topics. Also, mine doesn’t have the judgement not to repeat certain jokes.

I have watched him for years— watching him while I type this— and have never noticed a deformed ear. Which ear? I don’t see it.

I’ve watched him since he was on the Daily Show and have never noticed this.

Sure.
