Dave Chappelle surprised fans with a new free comedy special Thursday night (Jun.12) called 8:46.
The 27-minute raw comedy special was dropped on Netflix’s “Netflix Is A Joke” YouTube channel with an accompanying message from Chappelle stating:
“”From Dave: Normally, I wouldn’t show you some[thing] so unrefined, I hope you understand.”
The nearly 30-minute special features Dave delivering some jokes in signature style but comes off more like a candid monologue with the limited number of guests in attendance.
Chappelle masterfully breaks down just how insane it is that a police officer had his knee on the back of Floyd’s neck for 8:46, after first explaining how terrified he was during while experiencing an earthquake back in 1993 that lasted seconds.
Chappelle even mentions that his standup special was the first concert event since the pandemic began.
