[Bit 1]

You know, they told me that my comedy would

take a huge step forward if I told jokes

that my audience here in Austin found more relatable.

So I no longer trust black people.

Why are there pants so low?

[Bit 2]

And that joke is funny, D-madness,

because I, too, am a black man.

Didn't want to leave him in the dark on that one.

[Bit 3]

I don't think everyone here in Austin is racist.

But it's hard not to feel that way when you've

seen the things I've seen.

Someone called me the N-word in traffic.

Yeah.

I cut him off, but he got unusually perturbed.

Started yelling slurs.

Swipe me.

He even threw banana peels at my car.

That's when I said, I will never play Mario Kart

online in the city again.
