Ok, Margaret Cho just rocks. I haven't laughed so hard in years as when I was watching this show live. The only thing that keeps me from giving this CD (and DVD) five stars is that some elements are recycled from "Drunk with Power."

More importantly, Margaret not only entertains, she enlightens. In sharing her life with her audience -- including her near-disastrous weight loss attempt at the hands of a television producer -- she defies and then rejects convention and encourages us to do the same, for our own sanity, health, and peace of mind.

A must-have for every comedy fan, as well as for everyone out there who's ever felt marginalized by our perfection-obsessed society.

Part motivational speaker and part comic guru/genius, this impressive set pointedly demonstrates why Margaret Cho is one of the most beloved comedians EVER. No subject is taboo for Cho, especially herself. Effortlessly blending knee-slapping anecdotes with insights of her troubled Hollywood career, Cho take on her failed sitcom, drugs and alcohol, gays, bisexuality, Koreans, her mother and her critics. Full of trash-talking and hilarity, this is a must for anyone who really wants to laugh.

Perhaps the greatest testament to this collection is that I listened to it with my Catholic-schooled, conservative mother who absolutely rolled on the floor laughing throughout the entire set.

I have the movie not the CD. The movie is so funny! It wasn't funny the first time I watched it but after watching a few times I couldn't stop laughing. Everytime I watched it I'd catch something new!!!!!!!!!!
