It's deconstructive comedy.I lost all respect for Richard Herring when I saw him live a few years ago and he got annoyed at people shouting out Fist of Fun/TMWRNJ catchphrases, telling them how that was years ago and that he'd moved on, and then proceeded to rehash a sketch from the Lee and Herring radio show later in his routine.
