Jim Jeffries....

A not so delicate comedian from Australia.

He tells stories about his life and you just know that some of the stuff he is talking about comes from real life situations.

Now he is very crude and, well let me put it this way, MrsWCGreen was mortified with the opening stuff. Really crude and very rude but by the end of the show, she was down in the muck with me laughing like a drunken sailor.

He's got two specials in rotation, one on HBO the other on Showtime.

The one bit that he does is about a subject that I can guarantee most women would cringe and tell no one that they ever watched this filthy disgusting stuff.

Anyway, at the end of the show and the tears of laughter were still wet on her fae....

The bit is about a 30 something guy who has MD so bad that he everyone is almost wishing he was dead.

So Jeffries and this guys brother conspire and then execute a trip to an Australian Whore House to get the poor lad...

Well, you get the picture.

In the end, it is very humane, a very touching (no pun intended) look at the life of a guy who has MD.

I think that is what makes great comedy, making people see the world from the perspective of someone else. In the end, it is a wonderful story.

But be prepared, he is very crude but very human because he tells long stories peppered with one liners but mainly wringing comedy from life.

Take a chance, if you will, on the very funny comedian, Jim Jeefries.

Every year KROQ radio in LA holds an annual comedy show called "April Foolishness" that's also a charity fundraiser, and the year I went he was one of the headlines, I probably the laughed the hardest at his set.
