Required viewing: Larry Miller’s ‘Five Stages of Drinking’

This routine is a classic.  Larry Miller, a comedian whose name you may not know off the top of your head but certainly will look familiar from a career filled with movies, TV and stand-up comedy, has the quintessential take on drinking and the various permutations of nights that can pop up.

Although he’s got other great routines, this one I think is the highlight of a strong stand-up career that is filled with recurring jokes and themes leading to the downsides of drinking.

He’s also known for his routine on aging, which is a fun play on language and worth a listen as well (as seen above, although in a version where the laughter is muted and may make it less enticing as a result).
