Jerry Seinfeld finally enters the 21st century!

Jerry Seinfeld finally has his own website and it's about damn time! Seinfeld is obviously one of the most well known and respected comedians of all time and this new website helps bring his actual stand-up work to a new generation. His website has a great asortment of some of his first tv appearances and some great personal info straight from the horses mouth. One other great feature is it also gives his tour dates which in years past have been somewhat a pain in the ass to find. So if you like Seinfeld or just enjoy great stand-up comedy I highly suggest you check out the site. One last thing,if you don't think Seinfeld "puts in the work" now that he is rich,it will be a real kick in the balls when you see he is still going strong and doing it better than most!

Reveiw of Jim Nortons "Dispicable" cd

I have been listening to "Despicable" by Jim Norton over the last few days and I must say it's classic Norton. It's offensive,rude,tastless,and hilarious! I think one of Nortons "charms" or likeability is his self deprecating humor and over all out look. He has the balls to truely say how he feels and thinks which in todays fucking terrible politically correct bullshit is a breath of fresh air. In the world of stand-up Norton offers a view I believe is more mainstream than garbage like "You know yur a redneck" and does it in his "back-alley" style. So if you like other dvd and cd's of Norton I believe you will like this,and if you have never heard Norton then put the kids to bed and check him out on youtube!!

Job well done!

"Cheat" Bob Kelly,Bill Burr,and Joe DeRosa

This weekend "Cheat" will be shown at the Tribeca film festival and to the many fans awaiting to see what these three stand-ups came up with. I have only seen a short trailor(posted below),but I'm willing to bet that anything with these three will be highly entertaining. I have seen Burr and Derosa live and they both killed it,and all three are regulars on the "Opie & Anthony Show" on Sirius/XM. I hope to see the film soon and when I do I'll be sure to have another thread on it. If anyone gets to see it this weekend please leave a comment.

Also I'm posting a link to a interview with the boys from a GREAT comedy website called "The comic's comic"

The art of joke stealing.

Joking steal is as old as jokes themselves,but does that  make it ok? Some comedians can make "borrowed" jokes work better than the orginal author and some comedians don't mind giving that joke to someone else. I'm sure doing stand-up night after night,hanging out with other comedians and listening to other's do their sets you could pick up others jokes and not even realize it. Take for instance comedian Otto Peterson from "Otto&George",he was upset at Jay Mohr for just using a phrase that Otto feels like is his. Jay and Otto later squared everything up but it shows how touching comedians can be with their routines.

So is joking stealing a bad thing? Well it depends on if you are the one cashing in on it,or if you are like me and believe if you don't have the talent you shouldn't be the one "make'n bank" on it. Some very well known and well liked stand-up comedians are in fact joke stealers. Dane Cook has long been rumored to be a joke stealer thats one reason he is not well "liked" around a lot of comedy circles. The best case of a joke stealer and just over all douchbag is one Carlos Mencia. Mencia is a pure fruad and is despised thru out most stand-up comedy circles everywhere. Carlos denied for years he stole jokes untill a few things "happened" and he was flat out busted. One,George Lopez has been said to have punched Mencia in the face back stage at a show for stealing his material. Then this happened

So after seeing that do you think its ok for a comedian to steal anothers bit? As for Mencia now,he acts all big and bad and says that he makes the jokes "work" when others cant. Really you stupid fat fraud fuck? By the way "Carlos" you call yourself a "beener" YOU ARE FROM HOUNDARS AND YOUR NAME IS NED!! There is nothing worse in comedy than a fraud. It cheats the fans,the other comedians and art of stand-up. If you don't have the talent to write your own set,then you shouldn't cash in off someone elses.

This week in late night!
