À propos de cet audio
In 1993 George Carlin asked his friend and best-selling author Tony Hendra to help him write his autobiography. For almost 15 years, in scores of conversations, many of them recorded, the two discussed Carlin's life, times, and evolution as a major artist. When Carlin died at age 71 in June 2008 with the book still unpublished, Hendra set out to assemble it as his friend would have wanted. Last Words is the result, the rollicking, wrenching story of Carlin's life from birth - literally - to his final years, as well as a parting gift of laughter to the world of comedy he helped create.
George Carlin's journey to stardom began in the rough-and-tumble neighborhood of New York's Upper West Side in the 1940s, where class and culture wars planted the seeds for some of his best-known material, including the notorious "Seven Words You Can Never Say on Television".
His early conflicts, his long struggle with substance abuse, his turbulent relationships with his family, and his triumphs over catastrophic setbacks all fueled the unique comedic worldview he brought to the stage. From the heights of stardom to the low points few knew about, Last Words is told with the same razor-sharp honesty that made Carlin one of the best loved comedians in American history.

Okay, you might want to remove children under the age of nine from the room before listening to this brilliant album. When they turn 10, you might want to reconsider. Kids are going to learn this language sooner or later, so why not from George? It's Carlin's 12th comedy album, and most of it comes from his seventh HBO special Doin' It Again.

Millions of viewers know and love Bob Saget from his role as the sweetly neurotic father on the smash hit Full House, and as the charming wisecracking host of America's Funniest Home Videos. And then there are the legions of fans who can't get enough of his scatological, out-of-his-mind stand-up routines, comedy specials, and outrageously profane performances in such shows as HBO's Entourage and the hit documentary The Aristocrats.

Since his first performance at the legendary New York nightclub “Catch a Rising Star” as a 21-year-old college student in fall of 1975, Jerry Seinfeld has written his own material and saved everything. “Whenever I came up with a funny bit, whether it happened on a stage, in a conversation, or working it out on my preferred canvas, the big yellow legal pad, I kept it in one of those old school accordion folders,” Seinfeld writes. “So I have everything I thought was worth saving from 45 years of hacking away at this for all I was worth.”

Nice little history and into the mind of George
It’s nice to listen to for a bit of insight into the life of George Carlin. Something to listen to while working away. Think Audible could have did a better job with chapters however. Audible has this divided up into 5 chapters that make no sense what so ever for position. Why they didn’t just do the 19 to 20 chapters the book actually has and announces as you’re listening is beyond me. Guess someone got lazy.

A gritty bio with many laughs along the way
Last Words is not a long bio, but covers a very long comedy career with plenty of ups and downs. I got the book because I enjoyed Carlin’s later comedy, because that’s when I was old enough to understand deeper than his crassness, and I greatly appreciated the hard look at society he took. The book shows how his brand of comedy developed into that and who in his personal life helped steer him. A huge bonus to the audiobook is that his brother Patrick narrates and sounds so much like George, voice and expression. I think without that I wouldn’t have enjoyed the story nearly as much. #Audible1
