Wood is a consummate pro as a stand-up, not afraid of any audience. He even sticks the landing with not only one killer callback, but also an actual call back.

Yes, it’s about widespread social disconnection, and yes, it’s about the big political ramifications of a world where people no longer interact face-to-face. But mostly it’s about Wood’s own loneliness and the profound discovery that being around someone else doesn’t necessarily mean feeling seen and understood. It transforms Lonely Flowers from something impersonal to something more intimate and indelible.

This hour, both funny and bleak, does not specialize in topical political bits, but jokes that build a broader, deeper argument: Less newspaper editorial, more magazine essay.
