Roy Zimmerman is a humorist and satirist, just as Bill Maher is, except Zimmerman does his stand-up in song as he accompanies himself on the guitar.
Zimmerman is brilliant. His satire is spot on. His comedic
timing is superb. His expressive face adds as much to his presentation as his hilarious
words. His targets are politics, religion, and the unholy mix of politics and
religion. If Bill Maher ever wants an opening act for his performances, he should get Roy Zimmerman.
Right now, Zimmerman is doing his “Blue Dot” tour. If you
have a chance to see him, grab it. You absolutely must see him perform in
person. You can find Roy Zimmerman’s schedule here: Blue Dot Tour.
If Zimmerman is appearing anywhere near your area and you
can offer him a venue, contact him. He may be able to squeeze in a performance
for you. He did that for the Orlando Humanist Association on
Sunday, October 26, 2014. He left my throat raw from laughing, and my hands red
from clapping.
Here is a video clip to give you a taste.
If you can’t see Roy Zimmerman in person, the next best
thing is to get one of his CD’s—there are quite a few. The song in the above
video is in this CD: You are
Getting Sleepy.
P.S.: Is there a
documentarian out there who would like to film Zimmerman’s next tour? I would buy
that video and a few more to give as gifts.
Compare Roy Zimmerman to Bill Maher in this video clip. This
clip is of the New Rules segment
titled “Sam’s Flubs.” Maher also aims
his barbs at people who vote Republican. In this segment from the October 24,
2014 episode of Real Time with Bill Maher
(episode 333) Maher focuses on the race for Governor in Kansas between Sam
Brownback ® and Paul Davis (D). Maher shows how Brownback’s governorship has
been a train wreck for Kansas, and wonders how this could possibly be a close
race. (If you live in Kansas, please, please, go out and vote for Davis.)
You can read my complete review and recap of the 10/24/14 “Real
Time with Bill Maher here: “Prophets
and Wingnuts.”
