A clip from a performance at the Monte Casino Teatro in Johannesburg, South Africa, July 29th, 2011. A little explanation for everyone not from Johannesburg: "Fake Italy" is a reference to where the venue was - a giant Italian-themed mall, like the forum in Vegas. If you never left the Monte Casino compound, you would experience nothing South African. The intersection joke refers to VERY aggressive street vendors that wait at intersections (robots), and, when the light turns red, pop out and try and sell, from car to car, everything from cell phone chargers to clocks to kids inflatable guitars (seriously - ridiculous). Sowetto is a predominantly African area of Johannesburg where a lot of people had to live during the Apartheid era, where the Mandela house museum is located. Biltong is dried meat similar to beef jerky that is SUPER popular in South Africa, and "game" biltong is made from the meat of kudu, springbok, wildebeest, and other somewhat exotic animals. I know the squirrelador and the Pussy Bear jokes are older, but, people hadn't heard them in South Africa yet, and, there are some extra jokes stuffed in this version of them not heard on the "Revenge is Near" CD, or the "Crazy with a Capital F" CD. Thanks for watching...
