Kevin Bridges si mě rychle získal. Je to normální týpek, Skot, co byl dřív tlustej, nevěřil si, měl za sebou trochu šikany, ale, jak říká, "bullies are just somebody who are good at being 15, while others, their time will come", našel si ženu, má dítě a vše "turned up allright". Musím uznat, že už párkrát jsem na něj narazil, ale vzhledem k obtížnosti jeho přízvuku a tak nějak "nevím, o koho jde" jsem okolo něj prokroužil. Ale jeho standup je hodně na tělo, hodně k věci a dost velká porce zábavy. V té přímosti jsou skvěle vypointovaný příběhy a situace ze života, ta pozorovací schopnost zachytit zábavný momenty obyčejnosti života je něco, co mu jde fakt skvěle. Už hned ta reflexe na covid-times v úvodní čtvrthodině mě dostala:(...) "But it got the whole world closed. That was impressive. We'll never see that again. Even McDonald's closed. Wow! Even churches, even places of worship forced to close. That was massive. What a time in human history. We witnessed a time where organized religion listened to science. Wow! That's a big one. For years, they've dismissed everything the scientists had to say. "The Big Bang? Nah. Evolution? Nah. A dry continuous cough and changes to your sense of taste and smell? ... Fucking shut the cathedral! These geeks have a got a point this time! Somebody sanitize the synagogue!" Two christmases got canceled. I don't think religion can ever recover." (...) "Im in the living room. I'm having to socialize with the people who I have mocked over the years for your entertainment. I'm sitting... "So, Kevin, do you watch Formula One, Kev? You and F1 fan, Kev? Big, er, big Grand Prix on Sunday, Kev." "Fuck me, man. Do you have any absinthe, Gav?" (...) "Don't listen to these protein extremists. Yeah, bread has been... Bread got cancelled. Bread has been treated like a sex offender since the Atkins diet. Every single diet involves cutting out bread. Everywhere you look, "Don't eat bread. Bread is making you tired." Really? You ever seen a duck yawning?" (...) Samozřejmě, Kev přináší spoustu drobných malých vtipků mezi tím vším balastem, ten přízvuk to celé nádherně podtrhuje. Já nacházím Skoty vtipný už jen tím, jak zní. (...) "And she said, first of all, Kevin, it's called Anyu-sol. Not Anusol. Anyus... I said Are we talking Spanish here? I don't see a squiggle above the N. You cannae... You cannae just conceal the word anus inside another word and expect people to manipulate the pronounciation. Do you look at the planets? Oh, look at Uran-yus? No. Don't try and defend big pharma." (...) "But he was ripped, Jesus. I don't think he gets enough credit for the shape he was in. Any time I'm in Mass and I just kind of daydream, it always strikes me when you see Jesus on the cross, he had a six-pack. He never touched the bread at that wedding. No way did he put starchy carbs in that wee welterweight frame of his. He'd be on Instagram if he came back, doing fitness tutorials. @JCPT, standing. "Only my da can judge me" tattoo." (...) "Violent clashes here between Sunni and Shiites. Come on, man. Religious violence in that heat. It's too nice a day for that. Come on. Leave that to Scotland and Northern Ireland, man. Sectarian violence is a winter sport!"
