Editorial Review:
They are five guys who started their musical careers jamming in their parents rec rooms over a decade ago. Their smart, catchy tunes about suburban teenage life caught the ear of a generation, and today the all grown-up Barenaked Ladies are international pop music stars. Founded in 1988 Torontos Barenaked Ladies have sold over ten million records worldwide. Along the way, they have developed a dedicated following as one of North Americas best-loved live acts. The Barenaked Truth is the revealing story of this unusual journey, featuring intimate access to band members, their families and friends, set against exclusive concert footage and great music from the Barenaked Ladies.
The Barenaked Truth Reviews:
A Must For Die-Hard BNL Fans 
2008-06-28 - There's 2 parts: The main video: interview sections & clips from various shows, and the studio interview on it's own. It's very informative, but redundant if you've read the biography by Paul Meyers. In fact, the book goes into more detail about each member & how they join the band.
I enjoyed this DVD, I love the band, I just wish it showed more of their live stuff from early in their career. Best to grab it on netflix unless you're a hardcore BNL fan/collector.
Loved it 
2006-07-08 - This is a great dvd that gives you more insight to the band. Highly recommended.
disappointed 
2006-05-29 - Actually, I have to say this is not something worth buying, even if you are a die-hard fan, which I can say without any doubt in my mind, I am. proof? i have drumsticks and picks from countless shows, shirts, cds, posters etc signed by all the ladies, and of course every ladies room cd and ep/demo/yellow tape/itunes recording they have ever put out... and i was truly dissapointed by this DVD, it is advertized as a live show with interviews, and that part is fine, but the only extra feature is you get to watch the interview uncut... no 'maroon foot cream' or DVD-rom features. if you know someone that has it, watch it so that you can say you have seen it. But I wouldn't recomend spending more than five dollars on this BNL item.
Hells yeah!
2006-04-15 - Please disregard the below comment. From my experience, when people say something applies even to die-hard fans, it usually doesn't. I guarantee the person below is not a die-hard fan. How do I know? Because die-hard Barenaked Ladies fans breath, sleep, eat, drink, and poop Barenaked Ladies. Die-hard fans get a high from anything BnL. Even if they think something can be better, they never say anything negative about anything to do with the band. Even if it's not so great, die-hard fans will still be satisfied knowing they own more BnL. Of course this guy didn't like it, he's not a true fan, he can't appreciate it. I'm buying it, and I'm sure I'll love it.
Don't buy it!! 
2004-11-20 - The back cover advertises live performances of several songs. What you get is an hour-long interview "set against" a few seconds of songs here and there. I don't recommend this, even for die-hard fans. The interview footage is just slapped together and isn't particularly interesting or informative. Spend a few extra dolllars and pick up their concert DVD or video compilation.
