    Not everyone who finds success with one form of comedy can make the jump to a different comedic medium, but Charlie, my man, you nailed it. Loved every minute!

    Filmed in Appleton! My good buddy I served with lived there. Just passed away three years ago of pancreatic cancer. When we went up for the funeral it seemed like the whole town was lined up for the procession. If I ever moved somewhere else that's stinking cold in the Winter, I'd pick Appleton.

    We went to see Charlietwo days ago in Spokane, WA. I went "Midwest Cheap". Our seats were im the third to last row of the upper balcony. When I saw this video, I couldn't stop laughing when he talked about his Grandfathter Bob being Midwest Cheap. I was laughing at myself.

    No F'n way im just now hearing about this in the middle of the night. Tomorrow… my living room full screen… its so on. I haven't been this excited to hear a a stand up perform in years. Thank you so much Charlie, I haven't watched it yet, but I know you will deliver…. I got friggin goose bumps in anticipation. This needs the main attraction attention in my house.
