I can't believe someone else hasn't posted this yet, but

The back story is the person who invited him to the dinner had never seen his show, oops.

Seriously do you actually believe that back story, that's ridiculous, i've seen this clip before and it is pretty much as good as it gets, but the notion that someone organising and event of that order would not know who they were booking is just crazy wrong.

I don't "believe" it in so much as I would tell someone else they're wrong if I was presented with another reason. I just can't think of ANY logical reason why you would invite someone who is more intelligent, more articulate, and hates your guts, to speak at a polite social function. Particularly when I could see someone screening the show for 15min's not "getting it"
But if you were the booking agent clue us in?
