But Sir!

Tamar Rubin treats personal embarrassment with the manic commitment of an ex-theater kid who found stand-up in a rock club. Material about botched bedroom role play, dating broke men, and being an awkward teenager moves quickly, propelled by high-strung timing and a complete willingness to look foolish on stage.

Taped in March 2024 at The Drunken Unicorn in Atlanta, the 36-minute set was directed by Jeremy Essig and released late that year through Comedy Dynamics, while the companion audio release briefly topped the iTunes comedy chart. It arrived as Rubin was beginning to tour outside the Georgia circuit, having spent the previous few years developing material as a regular at the Laughing Skull Lounge.

The set moves fast enough that weaker setups do not overstay their welcome, keeping the focus squarely on her scruffy, off-kilter presence.
