I think it's obvious too. The all-night booze, gaming and tweet-fests are hastening it, as is his overall childish lifestyle, but he's definitely spiraling into some form of dementia. He's trying to do some sort of free-form, stream of consciousness riffing here, but all he can manage are some nigger jokes and resorting to goofing on what the audience is wearing, which is pretty funny coming from a guy who wears the exact same clothes for months on end.Yeah, there are plenty of explanations given in this thread that explain part of the problem, but I think what you are sensing is what I am sensing, which is that he is in cognitive decline. He’s absolutely not the same person. He is so much slower than he was even five years ago. So much more disconnected and less funny. It’s not just booze, it’s not just the Xanax, it’s not just his insecurity, it’s not just his age. He can barely follow a train of thought. He’s in mental decline.
I assume that everyone in Nana's inner circle, from his "comic" pals to his beard, are well aware of his diminished cognitive capacity, and are constantly goading him into doing what's best for them, in the hope of profiting as much as possible before he ends up in a rest home hooting and holeeeeeeeeshitting over Andy Griffith reruns on MeTV. "DabblerFest"...it's just so deeply embarrassing. He continues to live in NY and pay rent in order to be close to his idiotic "show", which is little more than a platform for low-level comic club grifters, and his alleged "girlfriend" is luxuriating in the SC house he paid for, without the screaming imbecile keeping her up all night with his braying. Meanwhile, Nana is like Ozzy, they just give him another fresh beer and point him in the direction they want him to go.
