Denis Leary - No Cure for Cancer (1993)


"No Cure for Cancer is one of Denis Leary's standup routines from the early 1990s. It was made into a television special, a book, and a compact disc, all with the same title. Topics include vegetarians, cigarette smoking, drug use, and political correctness." - Wikipedia

"Ticked off comic Denis Leary talks honestly about subjects ranging from smoking, red meat, drugs, his family, rehab, and yes, cancer." - IMDb

"Puff-puff-puffing away at cigarettes pinched between his thumb and forefinger, Leary embraces his self-proclaimed "asshole" mantle and attacks cultural sensitivities with the unapologetic, regular-guy belligerence of Morton Downey Jr." - Rolling Stone

"Say what you will about the (ahem) influence of Bill Hicks, but Leary’s furious, smoke-spewing rants on drugs, cigarettes, vegetarians, rock music, and death were pointed, funny, and often inspired — and never more so than in his breakthrough 1993 Showtime special." - Flavorwire
