Part 2/13:
The reverence for Rose Battle as a cultural space that has evolved into something like a "fight culture" is palpable. It’s a place where even rivalries culminate in audacious roast battles that sometimes devastate friendships but maintain mutual respect and consent. The comic laments how the show’s unique environment makes him feel both proud and uncomfortable, given its blend of brutal honesty and intimacy. It’s a form of combat sport—without physical violence—where the stakes are loud laughter rather than fists.
