In this gut-bustingly honest and side-splittingly funny memoir, New York Times bestselling author and stand-up comedian Michael Ian Black (yeah, the dude who wrote "A Child's First Book of Trump") unleashes an uproarious exploration of his genetic legacy as he plunges headfirst into his forties. With his whip-smart and trademark wit, Black takes us on a wild journey through the realms of health, happiness, and the bewildering human body from the lens of a settled (okay, maybe a bit sedentary) husband and father of two.
But hold onto your seats because this is no ordinary tale of aging woes and grappling with mortality. Oh, no! When his mother receives a spine-chilling diagnosis, Black fearlessly delves into the bellyaching absurdities of life, transcending mere navel gazing to offer a genuine and poignant glimpse into the ticking clock that shadows us all. Prepare to be regaled with uproarious tales of exercise blunders, mind-blowing revelations about our shared Neanderthal heritage, and even a near brawl with the notorious author, Tucker Max.
Let's be real here—Michael Ian Black may not have scored the trophy for perfect abs or snagged the title of Father of the Year. He might not even come close. But here's the kicker: you're gonna find yourself in the mirror of his relentless quest for self-improvement. You'll laugh heartily, maybe cry a little, and most definitely reach for your phone to dial up your mom.
So, buckle up and get ready for a rollercoaster ride of uproarious anecdotes, heartfelt revelations, and a touch of existential crisis. Are you ready to join Michael Ian Black in embracing the messiness of life, chuckling at your own shortcomings, and ultimately finding solace in the beautifully imperfect ride we call existence? You better be, because this audiobook is about to take you on a hilarious and heartwarming journey you won't soon forget. Listeners, brace yourselves.
