As far as I know it’s only legally available on Netflix so I don’t have a link, but if you have access to it I highly recommend it. I’m rewatching it right now because I’m on a break from job hunting and, though I try to get outside at least once a day, I frequently fail at that goal because there’s not a lot of extrinsic reason to go outside. It’s not the same as the pandemic but it definitely has parallels and a lot of “Inside” feels relevant right now.

He’s an engaging performer. Great writing and delivery, good physical comedy and performances, and I think he’s a really interesting visual designer. I love the lighting and editing of Inside as much as I like the writing and performance.

What do you think of Inside? of Bo? I know some of his earlier stuff is… rough. I think he had a bad case of “becoming famous as a child” but I think he matured gracefully as an artist.

Side casual conversation: is there an active comm for standup comedy / whatever kind of comedy Inside is? I guess it’s internet comedy but I don’t think that’s a standard genre.

    I loved his work from the moment he got on stage at the Comedy Central clubs when he was like 17 and the first thing he said was "Don’t worry, I’m hilarious’. Basically any show he’s done is worth a watch. And also don’t forget The Inside Outtakes, there are some nuggets in there that should’ve made it to the main thing.

        I think my favourite bit is when in ‘I fuck sluts’ he’s doing some pretty dense verbal stuff with a book open, keeps turning the page and at some point goes ‘The pages are blank, why am I lying to you’, puts the book on his head but still expends the effort to turn the page later on.

        It’s just an incredible way of misdirection that he does really well.
