Norm Macdonald: Based in a true history.

I love the canadian comedian Norm Macdonald, a really great stand up comic and overall funny guy, one of my favorites, probably my 2nd favorite comic after Brian Regan.

So, when he announced he was about to release his autobiography, I was really excited.

But nothing could prepare me for the audiobook version: 7h and half of Norm Macdonald stories narrated by the man himself.

It listens like a 7h30min stand up routine, really, and there are crazy jokes, like hundreds in the mix.

My favorite book in a while and now my favorite audiobook of all time.

If you guys can find it, do not think twice. A amazing talent that dude.



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

You are in for a treat, he narrates it like a stand up routine. =)

I love his YouTube channel.

It is something else, his Adam Sandler interviewwas great. I hope they do a Conan O´Brien interview on his channel.

Hadn't heard of him before but now I can't stop looking on YouTube for his stuff. He has an amazing ability to tell stories and he has a very relaxed voice. The combination is perfect for just relaxing and having a good laugh.

His long stories are so amazing, he takes a simple joke and makes it into a long detailed narrative, I lose myself in them =)

I bought it about a month ago. Haven't started it yet. I've been slacking in my reading. Still working on Doug Stanhope's book, which has been great, in spite of the crazy way the ink from the covers runs and basically tattoos my thumbs and fingertips. Wrapped it in Press'n Seal I did. I actually straight dowlnoaded a lot of the clips you guys are linking to. His ESPY hostiing monologue was awesome, as was his MC'ing of the White House Correspondents dinner. An all time fav for sure
