5.0 out of 5 stars The best
As a pretty big comedy fan thanks to XM radio, i have listened to a lot of comics and I own a lot of comic CD's (Mitch Hedberg, Bill Hicks, Emo Philips, Lewis Black, Steven Wright, Pablo Francisco etc.) and my absolute favorite is Unprotected. There is not a slow part on this CD and it never fails to bring everyone to tears on a long car ride. His quick and merciless...

3.0 out of 5 stars Only some new material
I had heard some of his material on XM radio, and his stuff is very, very funny. I ended up buying 2 of his CDs at the same time. What I didn't realize is that there is a large overlap of the same material from the CD "If you buy this CD, I can buy this car" to this HBO performance. Of the 2, I would recommend this one...but not both!

As a pretty big comedy fan thanks to XM radio, i have listened to a lot of comics and I own a lot of comic CD's (Mitch Hedberg, Bill Hicks, Emo Philips, Lewis Black, Steven Wright, Pablo Francisco etc.) and my absolute favorite is Unprotected. There is not a slow part on this CD and it never fails to bring everyone to tears on a long car ride. His quick and merciless wit is better than any other comic in the US. His family must be very understanding since he doesn't hesitate to include every detail of their personal lives in his act, but it all serves to create a punchline that we can all relate to. The highlights of this CD are his daughter's boyfriend and guidelines for resuming sex after a heart attack. I highly highly reccomend this.

4.0 out of 5 stars Just to recap, October 1, 2008
This review is from: Unprotected (Audio CD)
Firstly this is ADULTS ONLY, Roberts explicit descriptions paint a vivid image in your mind you may not be able to erase.

This is more or less a complilation of his previous work with some new materaial added.

I hope he releases some a new CD soon.

I first found a small audio clip of Robert Schimmel, and this sparked me to look into getting more of his stand up comedy.

See if you can find a clip like I did to help you make up your mind, it is along the lines of Andrew Dice Clay so it's not for everyone.

Unlike Andrew Dice Clay, Robert is down to earth with a family realising his body has changed over the years. His jokes are mostly focused on himself and has a unique view of certain situations doctors office, driving instructions, vets, his daughters boyfriend, the internet...

I can put this CD on months later and I still laugh just as hard as the first time I heard it.

Highly Recommended remember ADULTS ONLY.

5.0 out of 5 stars ROBERT SCHIMMEL RULES!, December 31, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Unprotected (Audio CD)
Robert Schimmel is one of the funniest comedians around. These CDs showcase his hilarious stand-up routines. If he comes to your town I would strongly urge you to see him LIVE. He is simply hysterical. Men and women alike will love his humor. Be warned, however; he touches on many sexual situations.

This is undoubtedly one of the funniest cds ever released. Robert Schimmel is one of the funniest comics alive today. I haven't laughed so hard in so long. The beauty of this cd is it's just as funny after the fifth, or even tenth, listening as it is after the first. I honestly can't say enough good things about this cd except-BUY IT NOW!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Schimmel is a great rising comedian., December 27, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Unprotected (Audio CD)
I'm a die hard George Carlin fan and when I saw Robert Schimmel's HBO special, Unprotected, I knew I had to have the CD. This is a great album for any fan of non-sugarcoated comedy such as that of Carlin and Leary. But note that Schimmel isn't as "negative" as Carlin and Leary. Rather, Schimmel hits on more "personal" topics to entertain his audience and it works! This is definately a must-buy CD!

I've very much enjoyed listening to and sharing this joke cd, and appreciate greatly the ease of ordering, pricing, and integrity of the delivered product. Unfortunately, I don't find the time to enjoy it as much as I once did (sigh).
