Artie is a GREAT storyteller, but it definitely took him time to settle into reading. Good God! I think, what's this gonna sound like when Rev.

    <body><![CDATA[I heard Terry Gross interview Artie on Fresh Air, and he came across as such a sweet, self-aware, if screwed-up guy. I think that if I had &quot;read&quot; Too Fat to Fish as an audio book that same likable personality may have come across. But as I read it in print form, perhaps that is why I ended...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/37428986">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[The stories are crazy. I wouldn't want to be friends with Artie, but I think he's kind of a genius. He is a story-teller and the way he sees the world and himself in the world makes for him stumbling in to the main gist of some screwed up stories.<br/>When in a diner parking lot in his dad's handica...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/40829607">more...</a>]]></body>

In many ways there is a world of difference amongst the group so a comparison may seem spurious, but in reality they are basically on the same level.

Artie Lange, stand-up comic, actor, and a part of the Howard Stern show, did not sound like a book I would be able to get through. Yes, it was raw. Yes, it was crude, but certainly not to the extent I...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/41687501">more...</a>]]></body>

He was also on MADtv during the first season and has had roles in movies such as Dirty Work and Beer League.
