Alternating between performance footage and other aspects of life on the road, the humour in THE COMEDIANS OF COMEDY: LIVE AT THE TROUBADOUR is as diverse as the comics:

Patton Oswalt:

“My nerdiness is now getting in the way of my geekiness, that’s how pathetic my life has become. I was thinking the other day what would I do with a time machine, would I watch the fall or the birth of a great civilization or find out one of the great mysteries, like who was Jack the Ripper?.... No, if I’m really honest with myself, the first thing I would do with a time machine is go back to 1993, the summer of ’93, and kill George Lucas with a shovel….. and stop him from making the prequels.”

Zach Galifianakis:

“I was at the drycleaners today picking up my kabbalah bracelet, trying to think what I was going to talk aboot…“about”…sorry, I’ve been in Canada opening up for Miles Davis…. “Kilometres” Davis.”

Maria Bamford:

“You know when you feel like you’ve been successful in life and then you go back to your hometown and you meet up with your arch enemy from high school: Christy Coombs at Target and you realize nothing has changed.

Christy: “So I saw you on TV the other day, and it’s just like high school, you’re not funny, you’re just weird… press debit or credit?”

Maria: “Booyah! But she gets the health benefits so she wins.”

Brian Posehn:

“I have never done a sex scene in a movie. I have done a bunch of movies, but no sex scenes. I don’t think I ever will and if I did it would be in a horror movie. And I wouldn’t be the one having the sex, it would be some hot teenaged couple getting it on and I would be over in the corner as the creepy janitor or the in-bred redneck hotel owner climbing through the window. They’re getting it on, hot teen style and I’m over in the corner saying “hehehe, get that ****. Get that ****, boy.” And the dudes going to be like “what the ****?” At which point I hit him over the head with a shovel. That would be my sex scene.”
