Jon Stewart in 1992 was just as awkward as you are now.
The best thing about successful comedians is that they’re all, at heart, massive dorks. YouTube channel Just For Laughs has just started uploading a stack of rarely-seen sets from iconic comedians back when they were just struggling stand-ups trying to make a name for themselves, and the one thing they all have in common is that they are huge, huge dorks.
It’s kinda nice. There’s something comforting about knowing that in 1992 Jon Stewart was less a comedy/political heavyweight and more a lovably awkward dude who liked going George Bush Snr. impressions.
Or that Chris Rock also used to make questionable hairstyle choices.
