You’ve probably seen him on Comedy Central’s ‘Roasts’, tearing into fellow celebrities with his unrelenting sharp wit and crass brand of humor. Well, his new stand-up special, ‘Greg Giraldo: Midlife Vices’ is now available through Comedy Central Home Entertainment on DVD. The special has been released uncensored, and is the follow-up to the ‘Greg Giraldo: Midlife Vices’ CD, recorded in front of his hometown crowd in New York City. ‘Midlife Vices’ CD is also a follow-up from his last effort, ‘Good Day To Cross A River’. I’m glad they gave us this full, one-hour ‘not for T.V.’ version because taking out the naughty words would just be wrong. This guy has a razor-sharp tongue and I’ve been a fan of his since his early days as a panelist on ‘Tough Crowd With Colin Quinn’, also from Comedy Central. You definitely won’t be disappointed with Greg’s hysterical, observational views on society and will probably want to pick up some of his back catalog of work. He is definitely on top of his game and I would love to see his act live. The feature is not rated with a running time of 67 minutes. Bonus materials include: *Comedy Central Presents: Greg Giraldo half-hour stand-up special
