All-star comedian Lewis Black is funnier than ever in In God We Rust. Jump on for a rant-filled, cathartic ride through the issues of our baffling world, from inept politicians and the shortcomings of technology to the absurdity of social media. No topic is left unexplored in this landmark performance at the historic State Theatre in Minneapolis. 

 It's hard to get the full effect of Lewis Black's gloriously bitter comedy if you're only listening to him. Watching the man work himself up into a lather with jowls shaking, beads of spittle flying from his lips, and his eyes bulging from his sockets as if his head is about to burst open from sheer pentup rage adds immeasurably to the effect of his barbed, pungent wit. 

 As "America's Foremost Commentator On Everything", Black is a weekly political commentator on Comedy Central's The Daily Show With Jon Stewart and has starred in four top-rated comedy specials for the network.

 Recorded in the summer of 2004, Luther Burbank Performing Arts Center Blues documents Black hilariously going off on such phenomena as Janet Jackson's infamous appearance at the Super Bowl, the controversy over gay marriage, Arnold Schwarzenegger's ascent to the California governor's mansion, and the ongoing disaster of America's presence in Iraq.
