5.0 out of 5 stars
the funniest stand up I own., June 2, 2003
This review is from: I'm Gonna Be Dead Someday (Audio CD)
Buy this and hide it. memorize it. You will go far. this is the funniest [...] thing I've ever heard (even beats out kinison's early vinyl-only material). I recently finished reading the worst book ever. (A million little pieces, by james Frey- if you must know) and had to go listen to Rogan just to feel clean and sane again. His video is pretty good too (at sacredcow deet commie...) utterly vulgar, hilarious, unflinching, unpretentious, acerbic comedy.
YOU CAN"T GO WRONG WITH ROGAN!

Down and Dirty Hilarity, August 24, 2000

DEFINITELY not for the easily offended, or even the moderately easy offended, but those who can get past the explicit material and a reasonable amount of cursing, Joe Rogan is one funny guy. He's not afraid to let loose with his opinions on anything, as his riffs on Anna Nicole Smith and the death of Princess Di will prove. Songs like Voodoo Punanny also go one better by being a dead-on parody of Chris Isaak-like tunes. Joe Rogan probably won't endear himself to everybody, but for his audience, this is a great CD.

If you have balls you'll love this, April 27, 2004
This review is from: I'm Gonna Be Dead Someday (Audio CD)
Oh baby I like it RAW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If most funk albums were this stanky they'd have been banned years ago by the PMRC. Unbelievable.
A MAN"S COMIC. Yeah, I Stumbled onto this by accident online a couple years back, looking up Bill Hicks stuff. I found some clips of Rogan's 'Live from the Belly of the Beast' video (which has much of the same material as this CD- with some great anti-Hefner bits, a brilliant retarded jesus bit and a hilarious joke about inter-racial porn with which I have offended god only knows how many people) and instead of spending the evening working on a term paper I sat in the wusc (FM Columbia) college radio library, all night long, laughing my asss off and searching down more stuff. I Bought this that night.
This is platinum. If you got this far because you dig him on the man show- hey, just buy this now. Comedy albums this consistently hilarious are a rare breed. He breaks all the rules, molests all conventions and simply rules. The only sleepers are the three middle tracks (the voodoo poonanny song just doesn't do anything for me at all, nor anyone else that I know), regardless- this still deserves the best rating that I can offer up on bended knee. Yes, it's sexist as HELL (and refreshingly so), no it's not homophobic (in fact, the handful of gay guys I've played the 'cockconscious bit' for, they all laughed- one laughed so hard he fell off a chair- for real). It's in your face from the first second. Great CD for road trips.
It's the kind of CD you keep to yourself and steal jokes from to rule at a bar- I should probably give it a one star rating just so I can steal more easily with less chance of getting caught. But that would be the un-manly thing.
In a world of PC jackasses preening their mundane everyman BS chatter- Rogan burns through the scene like Alien blood. Don't take it from me, take it from 'johnnykungfu' below with his 1 star rating- Rogan is so good he scares off the bloodless zombies back to the holes and churches, let them pray for him. we can laugh like the men we are.
