In his calmly anticipated debut hour, Chris Rutter unpacks the dark absurdities of adult family life with the dispassionate, nonchalant logic of a detached pest controller resolving a domestic infestation. Life is a series of mundane nightmares, but he is here to logically assess the damage. Delivering sharp, deadpan solutions to bleak realities, Chris does not offer you emotional support. Instead, he presents a strictly regulated framework for coping with it all. Expect a hilarious, low-energy clearance of societal chaos from a man just dealing with what is in front of him.
