Trivia

Peanut's joke about Jeff Dunham needing lotion to get into and out of his Toyota Prius stems from an anecdote Dunham recounts in Jeff Dunham: Arguing with Myself (2006). While going through Burbank airport, he had his luggage checked and, in the course of the inspection, residue identified as military grade plastic explosive was discovered on Peanut; when Dunham asked how that was possible, he was told that the result could have simply been mechanical error and it was lotion residue that was misidentified.

User Reviews

Jeff Dunham is the most ingenious comic......ever.

I am a big fan of guys like Ralphie May, Gabriel Iglesias, Larry the Cable Guy, Ron White, etc, but Jeff Dunham absolutely is the most talented standup comic out there. It's simply amazing how the guy manages to give inanimate objects such diverse and strong personalities. It almost feels like if you saw one of them thrown out beside the highway some where you would yell- "Hey, there's Walter!" or "Oh my God, it's Achmed!" The thing that separates Dunham from any other comic out there is because most standup comics each have unique routines, but they mostly rely on a single catchphrase- like Blue Collar's "HERE'S YOUR SIGN!" But Jeff Dunham each gives the puppets a unique personality, and each and every one of them are hilarious in their own way. He even sticks out among other ventriloquists, as well as other standup comics.

I could say much, much more, but I will condense everything by saying simply Jeff Dunham is a genius!!!
