Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This 2003 release captures comedy right before YouTube democratized stand-up, making it a fascinating pre-digital artifact of how comedy was packaged and sold.
The 'very best' claim is doing heavy lifting here—several clips appear to be from cable specials and unaired pilots, making this essentially a clearance-sale comedy album in visual form.
