“Somebody get Jeff Kreisler on ‘The Colbert Report’… As funny and as quotable as anything that appears daily on late-night TV. You are guaranteed a few laugh-out-loud verbal souvenirs to try out on your friends” – The New York Times
“He knows how to stick the knife into our guts in the middle of a belly laugh.” – Chicago Tribune
“The smartest political comedy around. One of the things that makes Kreisler fascinating is his unashamed love for America; he just hates what has been done to it. The final section… may be the most powerful description of the past few years of US history you’ll hear… slick, political sharp-shooting” – The Scotsman
“Kreisler’s keen intellect sees to it that tired subjects are rendered shocking and original… Reflections so clever, you wonder why they aren’t present in the political discourse.” – Fest Magazine
“Political comedy may not change the world, but it’s the possibility that exposing a little bit of hypocrisy will keep people engaged that keeps Kreisler and other politically and socially motivated comics going.” – The Boston Globe
“It’s a great time to see a political comic, and you’ll struggle to find better than Jeff Kreisler… With slick and witty poise he mixes wry observation on current affairs with quirky bouts of surrealism” – Three Weeks
About Get Rich Cheating, the book & show:
“You’ll be laughing all the way to the bank, assuming other cheaters haven’t forced it into bankruptcy yet.” – Rachel Maddow (MSNBC)
“A very funny book with a very timely message” – Terry Jones (Monty Python)
“Catcher in the Rye for evildoers” – Penthouse Magazine
“Laugh out loud – roaring!” – CNBC
“A brilliant and brilliantly sustained satirical broadside. On just about every page, you’ll find a pithy, pointed barb worthy of the late great George Carlin” – Tony Hendra (Father Joe, George Carlin’s “Last Words”)
“A Michael Moore-esque rallying cry” – Time Out New York
“Like all good satire, comedian Jeff Kreisler’s fake wealth-building seminar gets closer to the truth than the putative objects of its scorn.” – Show Showdown
“Pitch perfect satire” – Theater Is Easy
