Daniel Sloss: X May 2026

If you enjoy comedians like John Mulaney, Hasan Minhaj, or Trevor Noah, you'll love Daniel Sloss: X. Fans of British comedy, in particular, will appreciate Sloss's witty, observational style, which owes a debt to the greats like Ricky Gervais and Chris Rock. Don't miss out on this exceptional stand-up special – it's a wild, unforgettable ride.

Standout moments include Sloss's bits on the absurdity of romantic relationships, his no-holds-barred take on the modern dating scene, and a show-stopping story about his mother's eccentricities. If there's a low point, it's that some of the jokes feel a tad repetitive, but Sloss's energy and conviction make even the slightly weaker material work. Daniel Sloss: X
