Jackie Mason is a comedian I like very much. I enjoy his point of view,
the way he delivers his material, and the fact that he is willing to
base his humor on what he actually thinks about the world rather than
adopting something he things the audience wants to buy. That he was
actually a rabbi (briefly) at one time shows through and I think to the
benefit of the humor and his audience.
This book is done with
Raoul Felder and they go through popular culture, politics, social
issues, daily life, and the world to take on those people, policies, and
customs that are schmucks (they explain exactly what the word means in
the introduction - it is not a compliment). They take on Tom Cruise, Al
Sharpton, Madonna, the French, Waiters, Starbucks, Mark Cuban, and
dozens of others.
None of the articles are very long and all have
a sharpened point. The humor is delivered in the twist of the
accusation and explanation of why they are indeed schmucks. For
example, they ask of the French: "Are the French a nation of lowlifes?
Has glory faded from this once-major player on the world's stage? Do
they continue to be, in the words of the great philosopher Bart Simpson,
"cheese-eating surrender monkeys"? In a word: Oui."
Do you like this kind of humor? Yes? Well, then this book is for you (it was for me)! ~amazon

Seasoned
stand-up comedian Jackie Mason performs to a packed house at London's
Royal Opera House in this film. Known for dishing out political satire
and keen observations on life's absurdities, Mason garnered national
recognition with appearances on "The Steve Allen Show" and "The Ed
Sullivan Show." In addition to his stand-up routine, Mason has had a
successful one-man Broadway show, "The World According to Me," and has
authored several books.
If
you are a long time fan, as am I, you will enjoy seeing Jackie
performing in this historic site. Jackie even leads us on an abbreviated
tour of the venue as part of the bonus material. The concert material
is new but all the familiar patterns of delivery remain unchanged. "Hey
mister! What do you think?...I mean for a man in your condition..." He
does miss a beat or two... It is, nevertheless, satisfying to watch a
familiar old "friend" who has entertained us for decades basking in the
twilight of his career and clearly wowing the audience.
