Kincaid scoffs, "A junkie comedian?" and McCoy replies, "Ever hear of Lenny Bruce?"
Lenny Bruce was a notorious funny man throughout the 1950s and 1960s, purposely violating various obscenity laws with his frank and cynical comedy. He thought Freedom of Speech should extend to comedy performances and the police disagreed. This led to frequent arrests and notoriety.
He was also dogged by an opiate addiction, eventually succumbing to a morphine overdose in 1966 at the age of 40.
