Eh…

Maybe in person this would be better? As is, it’s short and funny once or twice and it’s clear that the writer is writing for an audience, listening, rather than watching, as evidenced by the way, people keep saying what other people are doing and large jumps of action with no reason . On the bright side it’s like less than an hour so if you’ve missed Ed Asner and Anne Meara, both passed on, it’s worth a listen for that reason. The first scene in the grocery store is pretty amusing.
