Diceman schtick was all about cornering the New York market, so he became a Jewish comic who wanted to be Italian. Woody Allen said it best when he did stand up: "Esther had a torrid fling with Aldo, then she married Aron".
Here's an interesting story - Louis CK in demand. Woody Allen's film Blue Jasmine won Cate Blanchett her second Oscar. He wanted Louis CK to play the part of the abusive husband, but CK didn't have it in him to play the part. So he cast Diceman in the role instead, since then Diceman's earnings on the comedic circuit has taken a huge bump upwards.
Imagine that: Diceman and Cate Blanchett as a couple!?
