The recording captures Hoffman in rare but signature form, delivering a series of riotous original songs and monologues. It was recorded during an extended sold-out engagement at the Public Theater nightclub venue.

PS Classics stated, "Hoffman is at her shockingly-inappropriate best: salty, saucy and uncensored. Here she leaves no comic stone unthrown, targeting everything from West Side matrons to public displays of affection, from the vagaries of show business to her own mortality. Hoffman’s unique blend of cynicism, stand up, and original songs will make you realize why her shows at Joe's Pub are the stuff of New York legend. This album is not for the warm and fuzzy, politically correct or faint of heart." Michael Schiralli directed the Joe's Pub presentation that had musical direction by Bobby Peaco.
