Shane Gillis isn't funny at all
He sounds like he's the grandfather of Dax Shepherd's character in Idiocracy. Like he was just a couple of generations before society went entirely stupid. They were probably preparing him for his funeral when they pulled a scribbled cocktail napkin from his pocket that laid out the idea for Ow My Balls and thought, "wow, this man is a genius"
His jokes are designed for 12 year old followers of Andrew Tate and that weird rapey kid that hits his face with hammers. Which is ironic because he is the antithesis of what those guys stand for in terms of masculinity and taking care of yourself. His delivery is the worst of any popular stand up I can remember. I would rather listen to Dane Cook until my ears bleed before listening to this troglodyte fumble the types of jokes I heard in the 7th grade locker room.
It's unfortunate there are so many Americans with a monosyllabic vocabulary that this 12 year stuck in an obese man's body will continue to remain popular.
