Netflix has been consistently putting out new comedy specials all year round. On Oct. 31, the streamer dropped Ralph Barbosa’s Cowabunga special, and it quickly soared up the top 10 TV shows list.

This is Barbosa’s first-ever Netflix special. During his hour-long set, Barbosa talks and jokes about his childhood growing up with his grandparents, starting his own hair-cutting business out of his bedroom when he was just 13 years old, moon rocks, and his fantasy of wanting to be with a woman who enjoys street racing. He did a good job for it to only be his first comedy special on Netflix.
