I got to admit he's kind of funny, but I hate fast talking in comedy. I'm already half deaf.

Cool, I didn't think many people knew about this guy. A friend of mine in the UK told me about him and I've been watching his shows every Wednesday since.

The delivery was kind of funny for the first fifty-five seconds, but since I have absolutely no interest in the content of his spiel, it eventually became very wearing.

I would not care to repeat the process, even with a change of content. For me, this is a once funny.

In this arena of verbalizing (or not verbalizing) punctuation, I much prefer Victor Borge's Phonetic Punctuation
