The origins of “meh” are murky, but the term grew in popularity after being used in a 2001 episode of “The Simpsons” in which Homer suggests a day trip to his children Bart and Lisa.

Recorded two months prior to his death, this album contains nearly forty minutes of previously unreleased stand-up material. It pulses with Mitch’s inimitable wit and spirit, it’s a document of a comedy master, and it’s a treat for all those who were afraid they’d never get to hear another great Hedberg joke.
I just got done [...]
