He does say “Know what I mean?” a few times too many for my taste and I’ve always found that very annoying. Outsourced by Russell Peters is not absolutely perfect. For those who care, the parental guidance sticker on Outsourced has more to do with the very odd swear word and sexual reference and not with any blue material. These improvised bits are just as successful as the rest of the material on this CD. Russell Peters is also very good at riffing with the audience and he gets to do it a few times here. Although I wish he had because these are really good comedy routines, Peters chose to do all new stuff that will please his growing international audience and satisfy his already large North-American fan base. Russell Peters has a lot of routines in his back pocket and he could easily have recorded some of his older stuff like “somebody’s gonna get a hurt” and other bits about growing up. What I like about Outsourced is that it is clear a lot of thought went behind what material was going to be featured on the CD. I am particularly impressed by his comedy routines on speaking English and English accents but then again I am impressed by all the material on this CD. This comedy CD by Russell Peters shows an autobiographical stand-up comic whose observations are very original and sometimes have quite a bite to them. There was a story running around Just For Laughs a few years ago about Peters impressing very veteran stand-up comics with the breath of his material, how quick he was with the audience, and how far he could go with cultural (racial) jokes. If you like Russell Peters you are going to like Sugar Sammy This is something Russell Peters acknowledges on the opening track of Outsourced, Filthy Downloaders. This, in part, is due to one of his Comedy Central shows being made available on the internet which allowed many people around the world to discover this very talented, sometimes daring, highly personable, and extremely funny comic. He has been thrilling crowds for quite a few years and has amassed quite a faithful following. Russell’s last DVD and CD, Outsourced, was taped before a sold out audience at the Warfield Theatre in San Francisco, and gives viewers and listeners an excellent overview of Russell’s comedic genius. It is about time Russell Peters released a stand-up comedy CD and DVD. The seventy minutes on this comedy CD feature, unless you were at the show or have seen Russell Peters very recently, all new material and a clear intention by this stand-up comic to reach a world-wide audience. Outsourced is the long awaited stand-up comedy CD by Canadian and international comic Russell Peters. With AMCap you can easily record video to your hard drive, either in MPEG2.
