In the early 1970s, as our nation's youth railed against every conceivable societal norm, a funny-looking teenage Jew started turning up at open mike nights in various New York City comedy clubs. Surprisingly, he didn't suck. That funny-looking teenage Jew is now the even funnier-looking middle-aged comedian Gilbert Gottfried, who despite his transparent shortcomings has managed to carve out a hardly-respectable career--and a reputation for shock and awe unrivaled outside the Bush administration. With this scathingly funny audiobook of rants and musings, Gottfried sullies an entirely new medium with his dysfunctional worldview.
