Watching this clip you can see how he honed his act to NOT smile or laugh when he delivers his punchline.

But also if you notice he cracks a small smile after most of his jokes, and I think that is calculated cause he knows he has to acknowledge to a certain degree that he’s aware of how dark he’s being. Other I think he’d come off like a sociopath lol.

One of the things I love about him is that you can actually see him mentally calculating the audience and just how far he can take the next joke. It's like he has a mental list of "If they laugh at this one go here but if they don't go even darker instead".

When this was taped, January 2008, the Brookline Massachusetts city hall was nearing the end of its second renovation in two years. The only people in town who recalled the first renovation were one cop (the station with 130 cops was across Washington Street), one librarian (next door to city hall) and me. I’d go into the library and look at the library’s advertisements for reading, and one of the proponents was Conan, a native son who never noticed the funniest story in Brookline that year - and still has yet to figure it out. QED.

I should say upfront that I'm a huge Jeselnik fan. He's not only a dark comedian but also a master at misdirection. Some people have commented how uptight the audience is. Honestly, considering the fact he's coming out to a cold room, i thought the audience was pretty on board. And there's no way, this set would be allowed in 2023 even though it's clear he's joking.

This is actually more of a classic style of comedy where the comic rapid-fires punchlines about a bunch of topics. I like the storytelling approach too, but this "joke-a-minute" approach never gets old for me... as long as the material is good.
