<p>The late comedian Norm Macdonald said he &#8220;didn&#8217;t want to leave anything on the table&#8221; as he joked about mortality and death in his final stand-up special that has hit Netflix titled, &#8220;Norm Macdonald: Nothing Special.&#8221;</p>
<p>He had been &#8220;working hard preparing material for his <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/norm-macdonald-shot-secret-comedy-special-to-be-released-after-he-died-its-about-to-come-out">Netflix special</a> until COVID shut things down,&#8221; a message on the screen reads ahead of the show. It went on to say Macdonald was &#8220;scheduled to undergo a procedure&#8221; in the summer of 2020 following his lengthy private battle with leukemia.</p>
<p>He &#8220;didn&#8217;t want to leave anything on the table in case things went south,&#8221; it continued.</p>
<p>&#8220;At home, the night before going in, he shot this [stand-up] in one take,&#8221; the message added.</p>
<p>Macdonald died on September 14, 2021. He was 61.</p>
<p>The special starts with the &#8220;Billy Madison&#8221; star seen at his home holding a mic in front of a computer, before saying to the room with no audience, &#8220;Hey everybody, it&#8217;s Norm Macdonald and this is my comedy special.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Of course, I&#8217;m looking forward to getting back out there, seeing you folks in person,&#8221; Macdonald shared. &#8220;I love doing gigs and I miss it. My God, I miss it.&#8221;</p>
<p>In the nearly one-hour-long show, Macdonald jokes about his own death and mortality in general, the <a href="https://nypost.com/2022/05/30/norm-macdonald-final-netflix-special-drops-he-left-this-gift/">New York Post</a> reported. The comedian said he didn&#8217;t want to get depressed before telling people how you &#8220;gotta get a living will,&#8221; as he joked about his family pulling the plug if he ever wound up in a coma.</p>
<p>Later, the late &#8220;Saturday Night Live&#8221; star, who was a Christian, joked about the afterlife, sharing that his &#8220;biggest fear&#8221; was that he picked &#8220;the wrong religion,&#8221; the outlet noted.</p>
<p>&#8220;Ahh, it&#8217;s you! I thought it was the other fella,&#8221; said Macdonald. &#8220;I should have been slaying apostates the entire time. Ah well, what are you gonna do?&#8221;</p>
<p>At one point, Macdonald even appeared to comment on transgender people. He cracked a joke about how his dad&#8217;s &#8220;good side&#8221; was fighting to liberate the world from Nazis, then said, &#8220;His evil side was this crazy idea he had that having a cock has something to do with being a boy.&#8221;</p>
