SICK, EVIL, AND VERY FUNNY!

"This CD is comedy at it's sickest! You know why right away why this disc is not on a major corporate label. It's too funny and raw for them to put this out. They would be afraid that someone might get offended and cause a problem. Mind you, it's not like this CD is filled with foul humor. Actually, there is not ONE curse word on here. It's just the way his comedy is presented, it's just not normal. But that's what sets it apart from what is being passed as comedy these days. His dry delivery on some of the tracks is amazing. This is the kind of thing you need to listen to a few times before you really love it. There are so many little bits of comedy that you don't hear until the third or fourth time you play it. I'm very impressed by this CD. Buy it and listen to it a few times, you will see what I mean."

Even better then the first one

"I thought this guy's first CD was great, but this is even better. It is pure comedy magic! Every track is killer. Not one bad one on the disc. Highly recommend this for people who get REAL comedy, not middle of the road garbage. If you think the show "Friends" is funny, then you won't like this disc."

How to Torture Telemarketers by Jim Florentine!

"Many years ago I worked as a telemarketer for WNED television and this man was my worse nightmare! Florentine knows just how to harass these telemarketers in the most antagonizing ways. I've always been a big fan of phony phone calls, but this guy is at the top of the heap. I've never heard calls quite like these and he wins my best recommendation. If you want to laugh until you cry, buy this disk and it's companion: Vol. 1. You'll be playing the calls for friends and family. Personally, I don't have the moxie to pull-off calls like this. Great job, Jim... keep more of these disks coming!One word of warning lest anyone be disappointed; the disk is only 37 minutes long."

Even more hilarious than the Jerky Boys!!

"This CD-along with 1 and 3 (I have them all) had me ROLLING with laughter-to me-this one is the absolute BEST!!! My favorite is "Grandpa Takes A Bath"-whenever I listen to this in the car, I literally have to cover my face to hide the fact that I'm laughing my a** off, so people don't think I'm a freak!!!If you hate telemarketers-BUY THIS CD-along with 1 & 3-you may feel like "Terrorizing Telemarketers" yourself!! Too funny!!! Can't WAIT for #4!!!!!!"

Still funny, but running time is short

"Jim Florentine keeps up his assault on telemarketers, and the quality of this one just about keeps up with the first. The secret to a successful "terrorizing" remains the ability to keep the person on the line as much as possible. The longer you keep them on, the more time they don't sell their product. He does come up with new ideas here, which makes the album very much worth listening to. In "Grandpa Takes A Bath", he's washing Grandpa while the telemarketer is on the line. When Grandpa becomes uncooperative, Jim holds him underwater to the chagrin of the seller. In another skit, he very cleverly wonders if the telemarketer is a gay date he had in the past. Yet another example is acting like he doesn't understand with the primary seller, acting normal when the supervisors come on the line, then reverting back to not understanding when the original returns.So he keeps up the good ideas. The negatives are a few ideas that came from the first album (burping, falling asleep, and the "Retard" character that wants to pay for his purchase with pennies. Not bad, but warmed over. The biggest problem is that this one clocks in at only thirty-six minutes. The first one was forty-seven, and Volume Three is 49 minutes. So if the economy of the thing is something important, be aware when choosing which one(s) to buy."
