This was where I first learned about her., 27 December 2005

I'd never heard of Margaret Cho before "I'm the One That I Want" came out, but since then she's become a real fixture in the entertainment industry. In this performance, she talks about her various experiences in life, such as a lesbian cruise. Some of it makes you think "OK, that's more than I needed to know" (you'll know it when you hear it), but you never stop laughing.

Cho's concert documentary "Assassin" featured her with some more toned-down material, but no less right-on. She's certainly an admirable person and great comedian. It's great to know that we have someone like her to reflect modern humor.
