What happens

John Mulaney: Kid Gorgeous at Radio City is a 2018 stand-up comedy special written by and starring John Mulaney. The special was recorded live in February 2018 at the Radio City Music Hall in New York City, and released by Netflix on May 1, 2018. Similarly to Mulaney's previous show, The Comeback Kid, Kid Gorgeous is a visually simplistic stand-up routine with a major emphasis upon observational humor. The majority of jokes are centered upon Mulaney's adolescence, celebrity, marriage, politics and anxieties associated with contemporary American life. Kid Gorgeous received an overwhelmingly positive critical response, with critics praising Mulaney for his compassionate delivery, observational wit and, in particular, a prolonged analogy comparing U.S. President Donald Trump to a "horse loose in a hospital". The special won the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Writing for a Variety Special in 2018. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
