User Reviews

Not your typical stand up special, But special nonetheless!

8 February 2018 | by codybyarber – See all my reviews

This show is awesome! Not your typical stand up special, but Hasan has constructed a fantastic way to tell his story that is both hilarious and touching at the same time.

Try to ignore the zero star reviews from racist Fox News viewers.
