This is another fun outing with Jim Gaffigan, a bit better than his 2017 special 'Cinco' and falling slightly short of 2012's 'Mr. Universe', which so far has been my favorite. Gaffigan riffs on a wide range of subjects, making even his wife's recent cancer surgery a topic of amusement if you can believe it. Lest you think that's a bit too irreverent, note that his wife Jeannie is a co-writer for these programs, so I think she approved. The gamut here runs from hospitals, genetic testing, fashion shows, and being a dad, to a weird piece of trivia that I thought was a bunch of hooey, but I looked it up. Never would I have thought that the Catholic Saint Bonaventure was the patron saint of bowel issues. More specifically, the patron saint of bowel disorders and gastrointestinal issues, relating to the saintly man's miraculous cure of a bowel ailment when he was a young child. How Gaffigan came across that bit of information in the first place is something I'd like to know, but in the interim, now you know it too. Gaffigan wraps up his set by mentioning how he opened for the Pope in Philadelphia, but for that, you'll have to catch the show.
