"Ron White: You Can't Fix Stupid" is a 42-minute stand-up performance by comedian Ron White from 2006, so over a decade ago already. A look at the stage (alcohol, cigars...) tells you already this is a performance for grown-ups only. Jokes are sometimes pretty rough (about genitalia for example), sometimes funny too, but not always. As always, subjective perception has a lot to do with how much one likes this comedian and his material. I personally think he is slightly above-average, certainly no Louis C.K., but not bad altogether either. The material gets slightly better the longer the show goes I would say. A bit surprising to me he entertains millions of audiences apparently as honestly as looks-wise he goes very much against what is considered hot and beautiful these days, but I guess for comedians this is not really that important. I certainly cannot say I was as well-entertained as the audience in this recording, but still the good was more frequent than the bad and honestly there were no really really embarrassing moments with jokes that should have been funny, but turned out really bad. Worth seeing if you love stand-up comedy.
