Well hello to you dear audiobook browser. Now I have your attention it would be rude if I didn't tell you a little about my literary feast. So, here is the thing: is it just me or does anyone else find that adulthood offers no refuge from the unexpected horrors, peculiar lack of physical coordination and sometimes unexplained nudity, that accompanied childhood and adolescence? I am proud to say I have a wealth of awkward experiences - from school days to life as an office temp - and here I offer my 18-year-old self (and I hope you, too, dear listener) some much needed caution and guidance on how to navigate life's rocky path.

Erinnerungen eines legendären Theatermachers. Erstmals erzählt Tom Pauls von dem Moment, der ihn für die Bühne begeisterte, von Selbstzweifeln während seines Schauspielstudiums, den Widersprüchen vor 1989 sowie dem Neuanfang nach 1990. Noch nie sprach er so persönlich von den Höhen und Tiefen seiner Karriere, über die Rolle des Theaters in der DDR, die Ostalgie sowie gegenwärtige Katastrophen wie Elbe-Hochwasser und Corona-Pandemie. Ohne Herausforderungen ging es bei ihm nie. Aber mit Possen bringt er unverdrossen sein Publikum zum Lachen und macht immer weiter Theater.

Roberto Gómez Bolaños, “Chespirito”, fue uno de los comediantes más queridos y respetados en el mundo de habla hispana. Sus divertidos programas de televisión y personajes entrañables han marcado la niñez —y la vida— de numerosas generaciones de televidentes. Sin querer queriendo es un testimonio apasionante y lleno de añoranza de las andanzas, batallas y triunfos de un hombre que conquistó el mundo del espectáculo mediante el trabajo, la tenacidad, el extraordinario ingenio y el sentido humano.

From the day she was born, Tamara Yajia entered the world on a wave of absurdity. She was the newest member of a family no one would call normal, from her grandfather the salami obsessed poppers salesman, to her mother, the OnlyFans model. Not only will her family try anything once, like moving to the United States and opening a food stand named Sexy Chicken; they'll try anything multiple times, like moving back to Argentina, then back to the United States, all while Tamara manages to achieve some success as a preteen child actress.

"The Opposite" wasn't just the classic Seinfeld episode in which George Costanza followed the opposite of his instincts to land success. The method behind the madness has been championed in industries worldwide and even likened to the rise of Trump. The award-winning writer who helped Costanza win, and first pondered "the opposite" in his own life, identifies traces of it in the legends he mined for anecdotes before the cameras rolled at his first high-profile Hollywood job.

John Byner is a man of many voices and characters, from impersonating the slow, rolling gait and speech of John Wayne, to lending his voice to The Ant and the Aardvark cartoons. His dead-on impersonations, as well as his unique talents as a character actor, have put him on the small screen in peoples' homes, the big screen in theaters, and no screen on Broadway. This memoir is the best and funniest moments of his life, career, and relationships with some of the biggest names in entertainment, both on and off the screen.

Since winning the Perrier Best Newcomer Award at the Edinburgh Festival in 1993, Dominic Holland has gone on to become one of the UK’s best loved comedians. He’s worked with Armando Iannucci, Rob Brydon and supported Eddie Izzard on tour. He is also the father of Tom Holland (best known for starring in the blockbuster Spider-man movies) and made the brilliant 2017 Dominic Holland Eclipsed Edinburgh Fringe show out of the experience of being a superhero’s dad.

David Acuff is a Hollywood insider, a military brat, a comic, a piano recital survivor, a BMW murderer, an offensive linebacker, a dog licker, a divorced TikToker, a father of three Jedi princesses, and possibly a child prodigy. He is also a semi-centurion. That's a word he made up when he turned 50 this year because "quinquagenarian" sounds like a horse disease or a Menudo song. And before he could move on to the next nifty fifty, he wanted to process how he'd lived, laughed, loved, and litigated along the way. So he wrote this semi-memoir. A semi-memie, let's call it.
