wat does lit think of this
A bit disappointing, I expected more from Norm. I liked the ghostwriter conceit and how the two stories intersected, but the balance between the biographical and the fantastical elements wasn't handled that well.

Watched a few episodes of his podcast. Seems a bit thick.
And why do people find his dad-tier jokes that he laughs at himself funny? Because of his delivery (it's decent, I concede that)?

He has a unique style of comedy, his voice and demeanor in particular are a character that's bred for ironic comedy.
I remember hearing in one of his interviews that his style of comedy was 'a comedian's comedian'. I'm a huge fan of comedy and he's at the top of my list. His roast of Bob Saget was the funniest fucking thing I've ever seen.
the audiobook narrated by him is the only way to ingest this read.

It's enjoyable and a good display of Norm's talent. 95% of it is just his brand of comedy, but there are sprinkles that show he's capable of writing powerful emotion. It does get dragged down by the autobiographical aspect and the over-retardization of Adam Eget and Norm himself at times.
