Joe Zimmerman | Cult Classic (Full Comedy Special)

Comedian Joe Zimmerman made something special with Cult Classic. Directed by Nate Bargatze and filmed in Asheville, North Carolina at The Grey Eagle, Zimmerman’s debut one-hour comedy special covers the story of a murderous owl, the evolutionary upside of depression, the unacknowledged courtesy of ghosting, and the strange morality of David and Goliath. Watch now so you can remember it later as the ultimate cult classic!
