I suppose you either get his stuff or you dont. Seems like a zany intellectual to me. It must take nerve to do it.

LOVE Stewart Lee. I've seen him a couple of times live, after I'd seen Michael Macintyre who seemed like a 6 yr old boy by comparison

Yes its the repetition adn the way something he said 10 minutes before and you thought 'huh?' then suddenly falls into place and you feel clever for spotting it

He is scathing about other comedians in general, and said Michael Macintyre 'Spoonfeeds people his warm diaorrhrea' and I had to agree because Lee makes you work while you are there and MM is soo OBVIOUS
