At David Sedaris’ sold-out performance at Carnegie Hall he debuted five new stories, all captured on this CD. They include a parrot who mimics an ice maker, lovers quarrelling over a rubber hand, and a Santa Claus who moonlights from his job as bishop of Turkey.
Thanks for my new ABS OF STEEL! Forget workout videos. My abdominal muscles took a few days to recover from laughing so hard, but I am noticing a more toned look in my belly. That’s because I listened to this CD over and over again. I didn’t know I could laugh in great, gulping guffaws like that. I hope my neighbors didn’t hear me, but I’m fairly certain that’s why they have been giving me funny looks lately. David Sedaris is just that funny. Reading his stories will make you laugh out loud, but actually listening to him…
Laugh-out-loudable! They aren’t kidding when they say pull over while listening to this disc in your car!Â
Something to Tide You Over Until “Untitled Collection” As you would expect from David Sedaris, this disc is completely hilarious and should help tide you over until his forthcoming “Untitled Collection” is released in June. I imagine that many of the essays he reads on this disc (most were originally published by Esquire) will find their way into that book.Â
