Simon & Schuster What This Comedian Said Will Shock You

Well written and in line with his broadcast themes
Well written and very timely in its addressing of current subjects and people, The title of the book, in my opinion, was terrible. I don't know who came up with it but I'm sure it could have had a much more effective title.

What Bill Maher says, written. Recommended by me (a nobody).
Aaaand finally, new rule:Everyone should read at least some excerpts from “What This Comedian Said Will Shock You.” Now, I know what you're thinking—another book from a comedian? Do we really need more stand-up material disguised as literature? But here's the thing: this one isn't just another collection of recycled punchlines and backstage anecdotes. No, this book is a revelation. It's the recycling of his ending segment "New Rules" with a little bit of polish to fit its aimed timelessness, which is so much better than backstage anecdotes.The author takes a deep dive into the socio-political landscape, dissecting everything from the absurdities of modern culture to the hypocrisies of our political leaders. And let's face it: In an era when politicians are trying to be comedians and failing miserably, it’s refreshing to have a comedian who can actually outwit them.The writing is snappy and clever and pulls no punches, both to the left and right. "This comedian" doesn’t shy away from controversy—instead, they run towards it with a torch and a can of gasoline. They tackle everything from cancel culture to climate change with a fearless honesty that’s as refreshing as it is rare. It's like they wrote this for TV!Stop doom-scrolling through your news feed and pick up a copy of “What This Comedian Said Will Shock You.” It’s the perfect antidote to the insanity of our times. Not only will it make you laugh, it will challenge you to see the world through a more critical lens. And in today's world, that’s not just a shock, it’s a necessity.Alright, I'll be at the MGM Grand on Saturday and Barns & Noble all next week. Don't forget to check out other book reviews on this one because who cares what I think? Now, stay tuned for overtime. Good night, everybody!
