"Jesus Shaves"

Comedian David Sadaris explains holiday customs and cultural differences in this hilarious monologue about how difficult it can be to convey complex ideas with limited grammar and vocabulary in a foreign language.  In his case it is French, but I am sure every student and teacher of foreign language can relate to this same problem and the (often hilarious) miscommunications that can result.
This is mostly safe to share with your classes but there is one curse word (bleeped out) at the end of the monologue.

Enjoy!  (Click here --> ) Jesus Shaves by David Sadaris.

Hasta Pronto,
