For fans of films like The Aristocrats, which reveal the many inspired guises comedy can take...readers of comedy essays (e.g., Carlin's When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops and Maher's New Rules) and comedy monologues (e.g., SeinLanguage).

In a hilarious look at real life on the comedy circuit, some of America’s most famous comics share their own stories of life on the road, gigs gone wrong, and unexpected zany moments, with contributions by Jay Leno, Jerry Seinfeld, Chris Rock, Mike Myers, Bill Maher, Joan Rivers, Jeff Foxworthy, and others.

About the authors

Ritch Shydner

Rich Shynder has made numerous appearances on the David Letterman and Jay Leno shows, and before that
Johnny Carson. He did an HBO half-hour special, “One Night Stand.” He played Al Bundy’s co-worker
on “Married with Children,” and made guest appearances on many other TV shows, such as
“Designing Women” and “Roseanne.” Ritch was able to translate his modest success on TV into an
equally obscure film career, appearing in Steve Martin’s, "Roxanne," and Eddie Murphy's, "Beverly Hills Cop II," before moving on to smaller roles on more obscure pictures.
For the last few years, Ritch was a staff writer on such sitcoms as "Roseanne," "The Jeff Foxworthy Show," and “Titus.” He wrote scripts for Becker and other shows.
