Playing with Myself
by Randy Rainbow
emotional
funny
hopeful
informative
inspiring
reflective
medium-paced
In this book Randy Rainbow shares how he became so culturally relevant. Through various anecdotes he lets the reader explore what it is like to go viral. In particular, Randy shares how people have tried to cancel him as antisemitic. Randy Rainbow is Jewish and a comedian.
He freely admits that some of his earliest material isn't the best out there. People seemed to forget that one of the core functions of comedy is to hold a mirror up to society. Many comedians adopt a persona, or shtick, as it was once called to garner some laughs. It doesn't always mean they agree with what they portray.
This book is about growth, the incomparable Babs, Bernadette Peters, and what happens when people are allowed to redeem themselves.
