SPECIAL TELEVISION TAPING. This week's guest is the brilliantly funny Gilbert Gottfried. This was filmed as a television taping before a live studio audience at NYC's Comedy Cellar at The Village Underground. We had a blast - the live audience made it really fun; Gilbert was his usual insane self while revealing a lot about the REAL Gilbert, like why he tells jokes right after major catastrophes like 9/11 and the Tsunami in Japan (which got him fired as the AFLAC duck). You're in for a super interesting look into the unique mind of this legendary comedian. KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR THE TV VERSION OF THIS SHOW COMING SOON.
