"at first, I was skeptical bout this release. having only seen Greg when he was roasting someone. but after watching this dvd. I was relieved to see that Greg Girado has a presence on stage. I'm not going to give out any jokes because that would just be mean. but check it out. you will laugh your ass off."

"He skillfully tricks you into believing he's just your average comedian whose performance is ridden with cliche narratives of the American cultural landscape. But you'll soon find you've been fooled. I find the more aware a comedian, the better he is. He must take risks with the audience. Sometimes he must trust that his audience is not vanilla but again we're not sick pervs either. With awareness of this, Giraldo is able to become several great comedians at once with material that is crude (Stanhope) and political (Maher, Stewart). He also does numerous pieces that make fun of our use of language, reminiscent of the late Carlin. Nevertheless Giraldo is not just a mish-mesh of other comedians, he masterly weaves everything in a special way. Each joke is not random, he's telling a story that hopefully should vibrate with the younger generations."
Review; Greg Giraldo: Midlife Vices

"Many of the philosophers of our day are comedians, and Greg Giraldo proves the truth in this statement. Admittedly, some of his material can be a little blue or might seem a bit irreverent, but this just gives his material the edge that lets you know it was created from real experiences. Like any good book or piece of art, each time you come back to it, with more maturity, there is something new to appreciate. Every piece of work Greg has done that I've seen, way back to his first Comedy Central work has been great in this way, and "Midlife Vices" keeps this tradition going. I highly recommend this product."
