Super Comedian

Dedrick Flynn

YouTube · 2026

Dedrick Flynn works through an Okinawa arrest and Southern gun laws.

Released , on YouTube.

Most stand-ups with an international arrest story treat it like an action movie. Dedrick Flynn treats being locked up in Okinawa over a stray bit of MDMA as a question of hotel accommodations, mostly relieved to discover Japanese holding cells provide three blankets and a clean mattress.

Filmed in Atlanta, the set arrived on YouTube in late 2026, right as Flynn was closing out a polarizing stint as a regular on Tony Hinchcliffe’s Austin-based showcase. Flynn had earned the spot after thirty-nine bucket pulls, but his discursive, Southern rhythm often clashed with an internet fanbase conditioned on sixty-second punchlines. Super Comedian gives that style room to breathe.

A routine about driving through Kennesaw, Georgia turns into a breakdown of the town’s mandatory firearm ordinance, with Flynn looking out the window and noting that women rarely congregate where the law requires everyone to carry a gun. Later, he picks apart hipster barbecue spots charging thirty dollars for cold brisket served on butcher paper.

The special runs fifty-seven minutes, self-released on YouTube without network backing.
