About a year ago I saw this stand up on Showtime. White guy, Jewish. Had kind of frizzy hair and a screechy voice. Did a routine on seeing a guy propose in a restaurant and getting turned down. Made fun of a video that taught how to boil corn on the cob. Had Schlick about women/marriage pounding a guy into the ground.

Damn if I can remember WTH his name was. Couldn’t find anything on Netflix.

Any guesses?
