I've been listening to Friedman's book -- an audio book read by the author. This TV special is in the next track on the same groove. In my opinion, she's not only VERY funny, but also, very direct, smart, and perceptive. Her intelligence is undeniable, though I am certain there are those who are unable to see the humor -- but it's their loss. They're the very ones who could benefit by listening and at learning, all the while having a good time with her brilliant presentation.

My wife and I give our stamp of approval to writers, artists, performers, etc., by inviting them to dinner. OK... they never show up -- but Jena Friedman is definitely invited to dinner!
