Zach Galifianakis versus the youth of 2002

Before Zach Galifianakis had a beard and was “hungover” (SEE WHAT I DID THERE I FOUND A CLEVER WAY TO REFERENCE ZACH’S VERY POPULAR COMEDY FRANCHISE! I COULD WRITE FOR ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT!), he had a show on VH1 called Late World With Zach (that you’ve never heard of before because it was quickly canceled because no one was watching it).

In this bit clipped from the show, he performs stand-up for small children. In 2002, it was a failed late night experiment — today, it’s a fascinating look at raw talent. Also, it’s really funny, because, y’know, kids.
