    It's more like reveling in the absurdity of those various bigotries than seriously propagating them, although that's often a very thin line

      And they walk that line in such an impressive way, it's great. Nick's so quick on his feet too. On the episode I was listening to today, a guest brought up Christian gay conversion therapy camps. Nick goes (paraphrasing, he did it way funnier)

      N: "oh not a Jewish one"

      Adam: "those exist too"

      N: (mimicking voice of preacher) "Hey there little Timmy, here's $4..." And then he'd be sweating, "..5 dollars?" "No I am still gay" {stav loses it} "6 dollars?" "OKAY I AM NOT GAY ANYMORE JUST GIVE ME THE MONEY"

      Guest: anyway, christian gay conversation camp

      And that's just a tiny throwaway bit. Nick's bits about Chinese or Jewish people are always so absurd , and he pulls it off. Magnifique

      VERY fine line which is why i understand why people would be seriously turned off by it. But im a fuckin asshole who loves nick's african guy voice.
