Is This Anything by Jerry Seinfeld

“Whenever I came up with a funny bit, whether it happened on a stage, in a conversation, or working it out on my preferred canvas, the big yellow legal pad, I kept it in one of those old school accordion folders. So I have everything I thought was worth saving from forty-five years of hacking away at this for all I was worth.”

In other words he’s taking his favourite stand up routines over the decades and turned them into one big 5+ hour show. As a stand up comic connoisseur,  I don’t have Jerry in my top 5 or even 10 but he does have some funny angles on all kinds of topics and I had to listen to it all mostly at normal speed to appreciate the wit. In the audio he reads it all himself which makes a big difference. My question is, how does it make all the jokes about the office? As a comic he’s working nights mostly, never in the office but knows all the latest goings-on.
