Documentary exploration of 'outrage culture', told through the lens of stand-up comedy. In the age of social media, eruptions of outrage are a daily occurance. People may have always found something to be offended by, but now their ability to organise a groundswell of opposition to their offender has never been more powerful. Today we’re all one clumsy joke away from public ruin. Features Gilbert Gottfried, Penn Jillette, Lisa Lampanelli, and Adam Carolla.
