🎧 Fun audiobook! A lot about his non-late-night-show life. If you get a chance to listen & like his humor ... recommendation.

“Any of you who have had the luxury of executing a humpty in the land of the rising sun will know what I mean”

😆😆 While listening I had to rewind this. TWICE! The Japanese toilet story ... I can‘t stop laughing! Add a star for this 5 minutes alone! 😆 It sounds like the Japanese have nice public bathrooms?

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Scochrane26 I read one of his books but didn‘t know about this one. I love him. 4y

I'm a Fiction Reader. I like escaping real world problems and immersing myself in worlds like Gail Carriger's Paraverse or AU of Casey Mcquiston's Red, White, & Royal Blue. But every now & again I get in the mood to listen to stories of fascinating people. This month it was mostly musicians and Scotsmen. Autobiographies read by the author add extra level of enjoyment. 📚

The first half of this book has the same topics I heard when I saw Ferguson on his stand up tour. The second half was material new to me, which I enjoyed. Always a fan of his since one of my daughters introduced me to his late night show so many years ago! I still miss Geoff! 💀 #NonfictionNovember

Took a brief break from work to walk over to the library to pick up some holds. I‘m pretty excited about these two books as I really like these two actors/comedians. This will hopefully be some lighter reading than what I consumed most of this month. 😄. #libraryhaul
