Why when everything is so
obviously wrong, do some men

Though historically accurate, you never heard this lecture in college.
John Lehr has led an unusual life; one that recently culminated in trekking through the Australian rainforest as the host of ABC Television's latest reality hit, I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here!. But that's nothing compared to the reality show of his life.
In Bigfoot, The Donner Party & My Arrest, part of a series of comedic monologues, Lehr shares what he's learned so far in this wacky journey we call life. Weaving improvisation and storytelling, Lehr exposes his most significant and embarrassing moments -- everything from being circumcised as an adult to orgiastic sex with three oversized women in a trailer park in Hannibal, MO; from spending the night in the Ventura County prison high on LSD to rowing across the Hudson River drunk in a dinghy.
In the tradition of such comedic storytellers as Spalding Gray and David Sedaris, Lehr's performance is shocking, hilarious, and always honest.
Each week, John embarks on another wild episode filled with the adventures of a life lived in and out of the fastlane. So, turn off the boob toob, get your butt off your couch, and don't miss out on the best reality show in town!
