A far reaching diatribe on bucking empathy.

This is one of the most sinularly uncompromised performances provided by, in my hugely influential opinion, the finest orator of intellectual signifigance at this present time. And he's really goddamn funny I guess. He wields his matter-of-fact, self-rightous indiscretions like the wisened old scamp that he is. (Or scoundrel if you prefer. He would!) I would much prefer that anyone after having seen his material not make rash judgements about the nature of his lampooning, for there's far more to be gained by allowing yourself to shift your sensibilities slightly. As for anyone who finds it nessasary to censor themselves from reality, you probably wouldent have bothered reading this in the first place.

A Fresh, Funny, Bald Genius

David Cross: The Pride is Back is one of the funniest stand up specials i have ever seen. He is a comic genius. One moment hes talking about the ban on fetal tissue testing, the next James Lipton of tvs "Inside The Actors Studio." He knows very much of what hes talking about. Having been a long time Mr. Show fan, this was a joy to watch. David Cross isn't the kind of comic to stand up and say "Whats the deal with Jesus?" He backs up his topics which leaves you with a smart, funny, fresh thing to watch.
