## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Equally Hilarious Companion To Plato And A Platypus...
  

*by A***Y on Reviewed in the United States on March 21, 2021*

Nearly identical in format to it's companion Plato And A Platypus Walk Into Bar, a wonderful balance of philosophy jokes and a little pedantry. This time there is more of a focus on religion, life, death and the afterlife- potentially daunting and depressing subjects made palatable with great deal of wit and humor. Much smarter and more educational than it needs to be. Another instant favourite. Most highly recommended.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Light, fun read.
  

*by L***S on Reviewed in the United States on August 14, 2016*

Cutesy clever jokes organized into philosophical categories. I was hoping to pick up a few jokes to help me illustrate complex Philo concepts. No such luck with this series of books. They were too corny and too highly steeped in specific context to lend a hand at illustrating difficult concepts. Disappointing, but perhaps my expectations were too high. Glad I got a cheap, used copy.On the other hand, this book was entertaining. I felt a sweet trickle of delight running through the twists and turns of topic. I liked it, even if I didn't get practical tools to use in open conversation.Since there are not many comedians focusing on ancient philosophy for source material, I made do with this read and it's novelties. The main reason I subtracted one star was for depth. Otherwise a light, fun read.

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Wife-Bad Boomer Humor kills it
  

*by G***S on Reviewed in the United States on November 10, 2020*

I enjoyed the first book, but nearly every joke in this one is ‘wife-bad’ boomer humor. And I understand both authors were over 70 when writing this, so the jokes reflect that, but genuinely 90% of the jokes rely on marital mishaps painting the husband as a bumbling fool and the wife as heartless.It takes away from the rest of the content.
