Excellent - just wish it was about 10 hours longer
In the Family Way is a fantastic recording- I laughed, I cried, I had to pull over to the side of the road in both cases because neither was a chuckle or a few tears. Julia Sweeney knows how to get right into your heart - her humor is smart, to the point, her storytelling just pulls you in and before you know it you are right there with her. I would also recommend In the Family Way to any ...

Julia Sweeney has touched a nerve
Julia Sweeney summed up what I have been thinking my entire life in just two hours. Dr. Tyson wrote an essay entitled "The Perimeter of Ignorance" and Julia came to the same realizations that Dr. Tyson scientifically revealed in his essay in a way that any one can see. A few hundred years ago people were killed for thinking the way we think because of their narrow, ignorant view of the universe ...

I was hoping this would have poigniant observations about the failure of the war on drugs, the hypocracy of society's view of them, etc. and though a handful of the comics do this, the majority of this cd is just various psychadelic anecdotes. This album does have ...

Warner Bros / Wea, 1997

Portrait of Julia Sweeny's Deepening Life
The sensitivity and poise of Julia Sweeny and the elements of suprise and predictability in the pathos of her tale of her experience, awareness and development combine to make this an eloquent and exquisite testimony. The CD is a recording of one of her deliveries of a stand-up monologue in which she relates events in the year leading up to and following the death from cancer of her beloved ...

Un-Cabaret Records, 2002

Good comedy on CD? Un-Believable! No, it's The Un & Only.
What's the first thing you think of at the words, comedy album? Okay, now travel to the far opposite end of the spectrum, and you'll find The Un & Only, Beth Lapides' outstanding new CD that assembles highlights from her long-running Sunday night L.A. comedy show, Un-Cabaret. In an era where recorded comedy usually stoops to lowest-common-denominator antics, The Un & Only is a refreshing change ...
