"as the special goes on, it gets sadder and stranger"Seguimos de música – e bastidores – a dever ao humor & depressão com o “Inside” 2021 de Bo Burnham. Já notado na intro do "what." 2013 e “Make Happy” 2016 (*) "Burnham awakes in a hotel room wearing clown makeup and walks to the theatre as robotic voice addresses the audience, commenting on how the world is not funny."
