The Genius Reggie Watts at The Sound of Young America Live

I can’t contain it any longer. Jesse Thorn put up this video of Reggie’s set in Portland, where I sat in the audience, moved to fits of laughter, tears, gapemouth and peepants. Andy Kaufman Award winner Reggie Watts is as close to genius as anyone I’ve seen on stage since Andy Kaufman, after whom the award was named.

In the clip above, he stretches delightfully for a bit, but the magic begins at around minute 9, when it all becomes clear.

And for convenience, I get to profess my literal love for Reggie and at the same time my literal love for The Sound of Young America and my good friend Jesse, who at the tender age of late-20s has managed to cement himself as the best, most insightful interviewer in radio or other. Seriously, listen to his show with its many fantastic guests of note, support him with your chump change, and love him as I do.
