Forget a crown! Forget flowers! Forget a homage! Goat this woman Ali Wong right the fuck now! I got no other way I could possibly start this review aside from saying Ali Wong is a greatest of all time. Fight me. Ali’s third stand-up special Don Wong is the perfect dismount for her stand-up trilogy. Ali Wong’s body of work not only stands the test of time but expands continuously with her growth as a person as well. Ali Wong’s stand-up trilogy is Die Hard strong. I’m talking. Lord of the Ring Strong. This is Captain America Trilogy level strength (Yes, I’m putting Captain America’s trilogy in this analogy over Batman’s.) Baby Cobra introduced to how real rap raw Ali Wong is. Hard Knock Wife showed us ain’t shit change but the dot on the range. Ali was still as raw as ever. In Don Wong, Ali solidifies that when she drops a comedy special, everyone gotta come kiss the ring.
Let’s be honest, there’s always a worry if a performer’s work will be as good as their past special, album, or movie. That shit’s real hard on comedians too cause at times with success sometimes the material don’t hit. Now, look at ya girl Ali Wong. Fam, Ali got a hit book out called Dear Girls, she gave us an incredible movie with Always Be My Maybe. Ali Wong is successful as fuck… but this woman is built entirely different cause that don’t mean a damn thing to her. Ali doesn’t lose a step and comes out like a prizefighter. Ain’t no thanking the crowd for their applause. No settling them down. Ali comes out walks with the red frames and matching leopard print shirt and keeps it beast mode the entire time. What made me an Ali Wong fan from the jump is just how gutter and with the shits she keeps it. It may feel weird to say but if there was a baton pass for the Kings of Comedy, Ali Wong would be the trusted anchor leg to take it to the finish line.
Ali Wong gets her special jumping by talking about how no man in the building ever had their dick sucked by a woman that makes more than them. Just like that, Ali invites us right back into her world and how her mind works. Ali explores the bullshit discrepancies and double standards between men and women, especially when money, power, and respect are involved as only she can. The way she breaks these tropes and situations down is nothing short of TedTalk genius mixed with the realest talk possible. This woman said she prefers to get busted on the face cause it’s easier than sucking dick. She then proceeded to break down the tiresome task of sucking dick. There are comedians that do it but the way Ali Wong fucking just keeps it so real rap raw is what makes her stand out. From the double-handed “pepper grinder motion” to telling the lies about how, “It’s soooo big! It’s the biggest dick I ever had in my mouth.” Ladies, you gotta tell the lie so they come faster.” Genius. Fucking Genius.
Ali then gets into how absurd the motion of a guy coming on a woman’s face especially from the woman’s point of view. She gives a spot-on re-enactment of a dude’s oh face and jerking motion, and I was fucking floored man. She talks about wanting to cheat on her husband, the woes of monogamy, and how society is more forgiving of men that cheat when they have money, power, and respect. Money, power, and respect become a continuous refrain Ali references throughout her Don Wong special to show the discrepancies between men and women.
Ali wants us all to know that she’s a shit person, so we aren’t surprised by the TMZ report of her cheating on her husband with Michael B. Jordan. She then proceeds to call Michael B. Jordan’s V-cut his “cum gutters” then tells a story about the attractive food consultant from Always Be My Maybe showing her how to cut chicken, noticing his erection (which was fine), then getting home and seeing that her underwear “looked like the bottom of a birdcage.”
*grabs camera* This is why I love Ali Wong. Who the fuck comes up with cum gutters as a description for a V-Cut? Who thinks of pussy juice looking like the bottom of a birdcage? Your girl is operating on a different level of funny. She even talks about needing to buy new underwear if she’s going to cheat cause the panties she rocking now looks is worn from being married. The way my wife was laughing so hard that she couldn’t make a sound from lack of breath. Ali knows how to take the personal things we think only we notice universal. I love artists that can take something so personal and show that it’s something everyone can relate to.
Through the entirety of Don Wong, Ali Wong moves around stage as this apex predator. She’s selective when she uses physical comedy but when she goes all in, it’s always worth it. The majority of Ali’s power comes from her facial expressions, voice, speech pattern, and cadence. Ali Wong just sounds so unique on the mic. No one: man, woman, or person sounds or moves like Ali Wong. They don’t make pop culture references like Ali. They don’t swim in the gutta like Ali. They don’t bring shit back around full circle like Ali Wong, man. I truly believe this woman is in a league of her own. It has been a joy to see Ali Wong comeback better than before for three specials in a row. Ali has an uncanny ability to describe whatever nasty shit she’s talking about to a primal degree while at the same time never letting the audience forget the hoops society makes women jump through.
Look, I’ma tell you like this Don Wong Netflix special told me. Ali Wong is the most dynamic and dangerous comedian on the mic. She isn’t here for just a good time. It’s safe to say her prime is here to stay for a long time. All hail Ali Wong from the southside Water Tribe.

With the emergence of NFTs , Cryptocurrency and Metaverses, Joe Hunting’s documentary We Met in Virtual Reality has found the perfect time to be relevant. VRchat originally released in 2014 via Microsoft Windows application, is both the subject and platform Hunting used to shoot the documentary. VRchat is a virtual world in which users can create 3D avatars and interact with each other. While marveling at the ability to film and conduct interviews in such a space it can be a bit confusing for those not used to the platform.
The 90-minute documentary opens up with a group of avatars learning how to drive in the virtual space. While this provided quite the laugh, it did set expectations on how this documentary might present itself going forward. Conversations are happening simultaneously at times making for a confusing experience for the viewer. Hunting, however, strikes up a balance with one on one interviews to keep the viewers engaged.
We Met in Virtual Reality follows a group of users in avatar form for the entirety of the film. Two couples, DustBunny & Toaster and DragonHeart & IsYourBoi takes us through building relationships within a virtual space. Toaster was mute for two years but finding the virtual space helped him let go of his anxiety and began to talk again. Toaster jokes that after meeting DustBunny he can’t stop talking. The couple have meet once in the real world but due to Covid restricts of their countries they had only been able to meet that one time. During covid the VRChat allowed the couple to blossom their relationship and grow extremely close , a chance they wouldn’t have in the real world.
DragonHeart and IsYourBoi are also navigating a long-distance relationship that thrived during covid via the VRChat space. The viewer was allowed to witness an engagement ceremony between the two , where they affirmed their commitment to each other in both VRChat and the real world.
The documentary isn’t all rose-colored glasses. It dives deep into some of the reasons why people turn to VRChat. From battling addiction, to mental health issues, to suicide attempts this documentary does a great job of showing some of the relief these communities can provide to those that need it. Several times it is mentioned that there are no expectations put on you in the VR space as in the real world. You are free to be whoever you want with no judgement. The current state of society being extremely judgmental via social media one can see the draw this type of community would have to a lot of people
One of the main users the documentary focuses on is Jenny who is an ASL teacher. With the help of user Ray_Is_Deaf , Jenny was able to adapt her ASL teaching to the virtual space. Jenny takes us through how she instructions people in the virtual space and some of the complications due to VR equipment when it comes to signing. Jenny gives the viewer great insight into what this space means for others. She translates a ceremony Ray_Is_Deaf participates in honoring his brother who sadly took his own life. Ray_Is_Deaf used VRChat and the community to help facilitate the healing process.
Though We Met in Virtual Reality starts out as corky and cute it really does address the reasons why people turn to the VR space and why it is so necessary for some. With the lack of adequate of mental health care in multiple countries, it is always nice to see any outlet that people can use to help them in their time of need. For some the VR space is just good fun. While Joe Hunting’s documentary can be a bit confusing at times, the overall message comes screaming through and it is one to invest your time in.
