Writer, actor, and standup comedian Joe DeRosa has become a favorite on the comedy circuit. His brand of comedy mixing brutal honesty and frustration at the workings of the world has won over comedy fans, radio listeners, and TV audiences nationwide. In February 2013 Joe taped his second half hour special for Comedy Central, and in April he will record his third standup comedy album ""You Will Die."" His first two standup albums, ""The Depression Auction"" and ""Return of The Son of The Depression Auction,"" were released on Comedy Central records in 2010 and 2011 respectively. DeRosa also created, wrote, and starred in Official Comedy's 2013 web series We Should Break Up and The Warner Sound's 2012 web series What Are We Waiting For? In 2011 he directed and, along with fellow comedians Bill Burr and Robert Kelly, co-wrote and starred in the short film CHEAT, which premiered at The Tribeca Film Festival that year. Simon and Schuster released a book based on the film, which was written by the three, in October 2012. DeRosa can currently be seen on History Channel's I Love the 1880's, and has appeared on HBO's Bored To Death, FX's Louie, IFC's Z-Rock, E's Chelsea Lately, and DirecTV's The Artie Lange Show. He is a regular on Sirius XM's The Opie and Anthony Show and Fox News' Redeye with Greg Gutfeld. He headlines comedy clubs and colleges across the country and has been featured at South By Southwest, The Montreal Comedy Festival, The Moontower Comedy Festival, The New York Comedy Festival, Bonnaroo, and The Great American Comedy Festival.

The Two Sides of Stand-Up
Joe DeRosa is a great comic, and this album showcases his professional prowess.The first disc is him doing his stand-up in front of a well-adjusted crowd. The second half finds him doing a similar set for a bunch of drunken, dim-witted sports fans. It's a train-wreck but, it's arguably funnier than the "good" set. DeRosa doesn't back down from these animals and gives as good as he gets.

I wish I could return this album after finding out ...
I wish I could return this album after finding out that Joe Derosa is a backstabbing, good-for-nothing, unappreciative little zero.

If you thought the Holocaust was bad...
This is the worst "comedy" album of all time. I put comedy in quotes because that's what it's listed as, but it's not comedy. If DeRosa was spewing his "comedy" in the early '40's, the Nazis would have played this album instead of using gas chambers because everyone would kill themselves while the guards wore ear plugs. They would have only needed to buy 13 of these records, but then they would be supporting him which is as bad as Hitler. Actually, I'd rather listen to Hitler do an open mic than try to listen to this garbage again.

Not funny.
Not funny. Don’t mind language if done well. This was a terrible cd

Not funny, terrible person AVOID
I'm a huge comedy fan so when one of my friends took me to see a show of someone taping a CD I thought "Okay terrific!" Unfortunately, it was Joe DeRosa recording this CD. Few laughs were to be had and most people had the left the venue by the time he was wrapping up. The worst part was after the show I wanted to meet him and at least give him some encouraging feedback, but before I could say anything he told me to F off and he spit at my shoes. I have never been so disrespected in all of my life and needless to say I will never support such a hideous human being ever again.

Joes podcast.. Killing time at work... Sorry
Wow, I didn't think they sold albums of comedians bombing this bad after Andrew Dice Clay released "The day the laughter died" in 1993. We should be carpet bombing ISIS with these things. It should come with green felt, super glue, and re-marketed as a "do-it-yourself" coaster kit. If you won the lottery after watching your kids graduate from medical school, this album would still ruin your day. *****

BoBo's bestest Friend falls on his face AGAIN!
Got to hear this from a person playing it at work off a torrent site. Who would pay a dime for this is insane! I was so mad I was going to charge DeRosa for wasting my time listening to this drivel. He needs to get back on his Black Horse and ride off into the land of irrelevancy.
C**Z
awesome!
Joey Roses, we think it and he has the balls to say it and make it funny! Another good album.
