The Bible of Unspeakable Truths

The humor and views of Greg Gutfeld are the reason I love watching his show Red Eye on FoxNews. This book is a larger continuation of his Greg-a-logue and was well worth the listen. I also enjoyed the additional interview at the end. There's nobody that can duplicate Greg's comedic sense of humor which makes him narrating this book even more perfect. His Conservative/Libertarian views are well illustrated as he shotguns his well-thought stance on an array of topics. A GREAT BOOK!

Very simply, he's funny, brutally honest and (omg) NOT a Liberal! Gutfeld says what needs to be said...the truth and he delivers it with a cartoon rubber mallet that hits hard. Honestly one of best Social/Political Commentaries I have ever read. He's not a carbon copy of an Agenda with exaggerated flourishes (a'la Bill Mahr, Jon Stewart etc...) he makes Everyone uncomfortable, Conservatives included. My advice, read this...you will laugh (regardless of your political leanings), you'll probably cringe. Hopefully Gutfeld will get the wide exposure he deserves...plain old honesty deserves a platform too.

Greg

The section on

BRUTAL TRUTH

Greg breaks out from the preconceived concepts of what a Libertarian or Conservative is. This isn’t your Dad’s political beliefs! Red Eye is the best hour on TV today and watching that show is like going to a young conservative support group -- “these people think like me! I am not alone” -- and right at the center is our man Greg, the inmate in charge of the asylum. The show balances slightly right-sided political beliefs and opinions with humor and wit. And unlike other political satire out there (you listening Comedy Central), the folks at Red Eye are not afraid to bring the other side into the debate. How refreshing is that!

Anyway, the book is a continuation of that: a series of Greg’s spot-on rants about society and what is wrong with it. His logic, while occasionally warped, is sound and his beliefs are untainted by spin and “the establishment”. If you’ve read his blogs or listened to his Gregalouges then you know what is contained in the pages. But for those of you who have never experienced Gutfeld first hand you are either in for a treat...or prepare to be revolted. Either way I am pretty sure he won’t mind. And if you disagree with me then, you sir, are worse than Hitler!

Smart, Unleashed Humor

Well Greg of course...he says what we all generally think and happily justifies it with whit and obsurd connections.

He brings his real humor in his voice and also in how he will sometimes just stray from the lines in the book with new insight on the subject he is discussing.

Great book for anyone who likes unabashed whit and truly funny s--t!

This book will make you laugh but it's no joke. They say there's a lot truth in humor and they say that because of this book. And if you disagree with me, then you sir, are a Nazi. LOL Laugh and Learn and Learn and Laugh. This book teaches and it is funnier than any of the comedy books out there.

Hilarious, Fun, Outstanding

I really cannot find another book of comparison. I think Gutfeld is in a class all on his own in my view.

As an avid fan of Red Eye, Greg's show that appears on Fox at o'dark thirty, his sense of humor can only come through his reading of the book. The inflections in his voice. The sarcasm. He brought the book to life.

It was, unfortunately, my life does not allow for that to happen. So when I was traveling to and from work on the bus, I'd listen. Over lunch, between classes. Any spare moment became time to listen.

You may not agree with everything Mr. Gutfeld says but you have to admire his unvarnished, down to earth, matter of fact, way of expressing his opinions. This is the kind of open expression we need in our country today.

It's all good but the forward by Penn Jillette was especially memorable because it set you up for want was to follow.

It was read by him and it had his voice so you could just picture him sitting there reading the book.

Absolutely. Having the Author narrate his own comedic novel is a must, and Gutfeld delivers fantastically.

There was no story. Ha.

He did a great Penn impression at the beginning.

Great read... err... listen.

I love what Gutfeld has to say about politics, life and human behavior...and I even enjoyed how he said it, for about 20 minutes. But then the repetitive use of the same comedy techniques got a bit ridiculous. After an hour of the book I was almost able to predict his next humorous comment, missing only a detail or two. It seems that Gutfeld had much more truth content than he had comedic variety. I would say that the substance of the book deserved four/maybe five stars, while the style was only a two. Don't get me wrong, the humor was funny...just way too predictable and repetitive after about an hour.

This guy can be funny at times--though after a short time, his humor starts feeling really formulaic--but what really makes this unpleasant to listen to is the tone. It's like listening to the worst, angry, blowhard, frat-boy you can imagine.

And most of the times, he's just not 1/10 as clever or funny as he thinks he is. (An example, is repeating gag of him asking the recording engineer for some water, which, if you listen to audio books a lot, has the potential to be funny, but just turns out predictable and stupid.)
