Hasan Minhaj: The King’s Jester, a second Netflix special by the stand-up comedian, is a bold one hour set which reflects his skills as a captivating, powerful storyteller. https://www.thequint.com/neon/social-buzz/hasan-minhaj-patriot-act-desi-uncle-description-accurate”>Hasan delivers the set with vigour and the special is aided by a gaudy production.
“The first joke I ever told saved my life,” says Hasan adding, “and now my stupid-a** jokes almost cost me my baby’s life.” This encompasses the set, as he talks about how comedy is a matter of life and death, the trauma of women dealing with infertility, his spiralling fame and his addiction to it, and of course, his risqué materials from the past. Oh yes! The King’s too.
