I'm right about a lot of things that people have
zero clue that David knows going on.

Speaker 1 (00:07):
Oh okay, they call him the master of cringe comedy.
And I'm not talking about Larry David. I'm talking Tim Robinson.
Currently you can see his show The Chair Company on HBO.
He not only created it, but stars in it as well.
Black humor at its very best, Robinson plays a character
named Ron, an average dude with a wife and two kids,
about to make a presentation at work that will likely

(00:29):
move him up the ladder. But something traumatic happens, an
incident involving a chair, an office chair that breaks as
he sits down in front of his coworkers. Most would
just pass it off as an accident, but not Ron.
The chair becomes the source of his paranoia, causes him
to morph into a pseudo private investigator, will stop at
nothing to uncover the truth of that chair, warning you

(00:50):
you'll either be hooked or I think it's a waste
of time. Hence the warning. The Chair Company on HBO,
