That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore

On the Death and Rebirth of Comedy

De: Lou Perez

Narrado por: Lou Perez

The Woke are killing comedy—and that makes being a comedian today better than ever!

The Woke—that humorless, joyless, shame-inducing virus—are killing comedy…and that is great for comedians! So argues award-winning comedian Lou Perez in his hilarious and provocative book debut, That Joke Isn’t Funny Anymore.

Through the lens of comedy, Lou examines anti-racism, sex, gender, cancel culture, and all the modern-day sacred cows that have been propped up in recent years. An equal-opportunity offender, nothing is safe from his mockery. Lou punches up, he punches down—he’s throwing haymakers in every direction!

This book is a cancellable offense—but worth the risk. It’s time to fight back: to create, to celebrate, and, most importantly, to laugh. These are amazing times, in no small part thanks to the Woke gift to comedy.

Plus, listening to That Joke Isn’t Funny Anymore will take care of your diversity quota. Lou has the results from his DNA test to prove it.

A hilarious & insightful book on wokeness & comedy

Lou provides hilarious and very insightful book detailing almost every crazy woke story/controversy since about 2015, expertly rips the rampant hypocrisy to shreds, in a very funny and satirical way. It's a great book to read or recommend to anyone to understand why wokeness is so crazy, obnoxious and counterproductive. It also serves as a memoir of a comedian/legendary sketch writer/performer's career, experiences, ups and downs, and the wisdom he's gathered along the way. it's a very entertaining, funny and insightful book, not to be skipped.

Audio version is better

Its great to hear a comical voice of reason in this crazy woke world. Great book to read. But, the audio version is better because its narrated by a real LatinX.

Great mix of comedy and cultural discussions

Love the story’s told and how well it fit into the conversation that we are having in society today.

Amusing and Educational

While it might seem controversial to some, Lou manages to maintain humor while explaining his experience as a comedian, and giving insights on what one not willing to conform to "modern audiences" might have to expect.

The way he lays out the current issues in comedy (and really, all entertainment) is insightful, grounded, and, most importantly, funny.

what was the point of this book?

I don't know where this book was going and neither did the author seemed like he put all his notes on topics into one giant rant.
