great stuff.

Louis C.K. said her set was among the handful of best sets of standup he'd ever witnessed.
Terry Gross asked him what were the others?
He listed Seinfeld in the 80s, Chris Rock in the 90s and Bill Cosby in (surprisingly) 2010.

Easy to diss Cos but he's a master.

[2] Yeah, I can believe that Cosby can still do a great standup set. Hell, they say if you catch Leno at the right time & place, far away from TV cameras, he can still kill it like he did in the 80s.

I love Cos. One of my favorites. [3] Interesting point about Leno. I've definitely written him off. I shouldn't underestimate the masters just because they are aging. George Carlin, was a great example of someone who clearly never lost his fastball.
