Greg Fitzsimmons: You Know Me

Greg Fitzsimmons brings decades of comedic mastery to You Know Me, his latest stand-up special filmed on November 18, 2023, at The Comedy Mothership in Austin, TX. With 35 years of stand-up experience and 34 years of sobriety, Fitzsimmons crafts a hilarious, unfiltered narrative that dives deep into the absurdities of aging, parenting teenagers, and maintaining relevance in a world that’s constantly changing.

The special kicks off with Greg's sharp take on his Irish heritage, including an unexpected twist on ancestry tests, before he segues into his uniquely Greg reflections on family dynamics. His observations on parenting teenagers—like explaining his past coolness while poking fun at today’s participation-trophy generation—are as relatable as they are biting.

Greg’s humor doesn’t shy away from the personal, taking the audience through the realities of being 57, including the surprising intimacy of sex at that age. He balances these moments with laugh-out-loud anecdotes about marriage, his attempts to connect with his son, and his memories of a wilder, more chaotic past.

In one standout segment, Greg hilariously recounts a hotel window mishap that blurs the line between voyeurism and awkward humanity, showcasing his gift for finding comedy in the most unexpected places.

At its heart, You Know Me is a celebration of self-awareness. Greg’s willingness to laugh at himself, whether it’s a story about erectile dysfunction or his life’s “sweet spot” in comedy’s middle tier, makes this special both uproariously funny and refreshingly human.
