it works because:

- Nore has clearly grown and matured
- but he's willing to play ignorant to get a laugh (his response to Prince Be slandering Chuck D "they should have killed him")
- the more drunk he gets the more belligerent he is
- he isnt very educated at all but he doesnt pretend to be (unlike other "street smart" personalities), he'll quickly admit "I dont know what that word means" about a high school education word and keep it moving
- the recurring "make some noise" bit is funny every time because he'll apply it to anything except kids or women coming to harm
- he's just naturally having the time of his life trying to get compelling conversation from his friends, it never feels like he's over thinking it

I wasnt crazy about Benzino & Dave Mays because it felt like a press stop for them and it was too controlled, DMX was awkward, but just about everything else has been golden
