I saw a lot of repetitions too in his performances at difference occasions. But I can accept that. It doesn't seem interesting to audience, if you happen to see all different shows. But for a performer, I can imagine, it's actually pretty normal and necessary. It takes "75 repetitions" (his words) to tell a good joke. Especially, he is at the beginning of telling the jokes. This is not only true for jokes, but for all other speeches from all those great people.

You can't accumulate a few jokes with about 20 years living in the country? A lot of stories are just from daily life. As long as you are sensitive enough, commit and write it down whenever you get an idea, it's totally conceivable to get these jokes. But if you think he wrote all these at one night, no, not just him, nobody can be so confident to make every single joke funny enough to perform before President.
@townsgate168 I agree - not discriminating against new immigrants but judging by his accent and sometimes the hesitation in his delivery, I think he worked hard at memorising the lines which could only mean that he didn't write the speech - and as you've pointed out, you'd have to understand the culture to be able to come up with those jokes - he must have a ghostwriter.

Of course, variation is important. Otherwise, the audience will suffer. But it takes a little more time. I think he will do better and better.

我相信黃西的脫口秀裡的講詞內容，他本人沒可能想得出來，士生土長的老美才是他的 Ghost wrter--他的幕後撰犒者。像黃西這類第一代移民，不可能對美國社會有那麼了解，能多次引起聽眾共鳴。

@townsgate168 多看电视就够了，他说的笑话都是美国实事，关心实事的基本都知道，不一定必须是本土人。我相信这些笑话是他自己写的，因为基本都跟他的个人生活有关，新移民生活是他的个人卖点。不过缺点是他一直没有新东西，你要听听他在其他地方的表演，笑话基本都是雷同，应该有所创新了。

@Ritheaniacardenas It takes a lot more than STUDYING history and preparation to be a good comedian. It's how you live - and his lines just sound fake
