What people are saying:

"The most overlooked and underrated comedian in America. He's not to be missed."
--Twin Cities Reader

"Bauer challenged the audience Wednesday night with tales of bear hunting gone bad, an alcoholic uncle, evil dogs and funerals...not your typical stand-up fare. His ambiguous tone of voice and facial expressions made him look appalled and amused at the same time, adding up to some big laughs."
--Kansas City
