Soupy Sales was a longtime host of an event at Friars Club called "Stop Me If You've Heard It" where a group of comics all seated on bar stools attempt to top each other by telling a joke. By the end of the evening it's not all that clear who actually topped who since the audience is too busy brushing tears away, doubling over in laughter, and praying their bladders remain intact before making a beeline to the bathrooms. Hilarious doesn't even begin to describe these evenings. This event with Soupy as top banana was as highly anticipated as The Friars' infamous Roasts, and his comic legacy endures in this book of his favorite jokes. "There is never a dull moment when Soupy is in the room. The Friars are lucky-we just have to turn around and listen to Soupy tell his hilarious jokes. Thanks to this book, though, you've got the next best thing-if you can't join him, read him. The Soup is on and he's boiling over with laughs." - Barry Dougherty of The Friars Club

The concept of ethnic, racial, and gender humor is as sensitive a subject today as it has ever been; and yet at no time in the past have we had such a quantity of this humor circulating throughout society. We can see the power of such content manifested continually in our culture's films and stand-up comedy routines, as well as on popular TV sitcoms, where Jewish, black, Asian, Hispanic, and gay characters and topics have seemingly become essential to comic scenarios. Though such humor is often cruel, it can also be a source of pride and play among minorities, women, and gays. Leon Rappoport's incisive account takes an in-depth look at ethnic, racial, and gender humor, and shows that despite the polarization that is often apparent in the debates such humor evokes, the most important melting pot in this country may be the one that we enter when we share a laugh at ourselves. This timely work displays ethnic, racial, and gender humor in both its aspects: as an aggressive instrument of prejudice and as a powerful defense against it. Rappoport explores the origins and implications of the various slurs, stereotypes, and obscenities that are typical of this double-edged form of modern comedy, as well as the ways in which irony has been employed by minority figures as a weapon against oppression. Broad in scope and lively in style, Rappoport's volume is enhanced by illustrative jokes and comedy routines, and should keep readers engaged, entertained, and provoked throughout.
