À propos de cet audio
Comedian and cult hero Chris Gethard performs his laugh-out-loud, kick-in-the-pants self-help narrative for anyone who ever felt like they didn’t fit in or couldn’t catch a break, showing us how to get over our fear of failure and start living life on our own terms. This audiobook edition of Lose Well concludes with exclusive bonus conversations with Chris Gethard and special guests who are referenced throughout the audiobook: Gregg Gethard, Mike Dolan, Todd Tondera, Danny Tobia, Mark Moran, Frank Piegaro, and Jeremy Redleaf.
Let’s face it: we all want a seat at the cool table, a great job, and loads of money. But most of us won’t be able to achieve this widely accepted, black-or-white, definition of winning, which makes us feel like failures, that we’re destined to a life of loserdom. That’s the conventional wisdom. It’s also crap, according to comedian and cult hero Chris Gethard, who knows a thing of two about losing. Failing is an art form, he argues; in fact, it’s the only the way we’re ever going to discover who we are, what we really want, and how to live the kind of life we only dreamed about.
Setting flame to vision boards and tossing out the "seven simple steps" to achieving anything, the host of the eponymous TruTV talk show and the wildly popular podcast Beautiful Stories from Anonymous People illustrates his personal and professional manifesto with hilarious and ultimately empowering stories about his own setbacks, missteps, and public failures, from the cancellation of his Comedy Central sitcom after seven episodes to rediscovering his comedic voice and life’s purpose on a public access channel.
With his trademark wit and inspiring storytelling - a cross between David Sedaris and Jenny Lawson - Gethard teaches us how to power through our own hero’s journey, whether we’re a 15-year-old starting a punk band or a 50-year-old mother of three launching an Etsy page. In the process, he shows us how to fail with grace, laugh on the way down, and as we dust ourselves off, how to transform inevitable failures into endless opportunities. It might get a little messy, but that’s exactly the point. Because the first step in living on your own terms is learning how to lose well, and more often than not, the revolutionary act of failing lets us witness firsthand what awaits us on the other side.

Chris kills it if course, enjoyable book with great take away lessons. I'm not even done yet but since it's a new book I wanted to rate so that people will buy it!

Not just funny, also helpful
As a fan of Chris Gethard, I knew he was funny, and knew he was a good writer, but this book is incredibly insightful. He somehow managed to make a self help group that doesn't use fluffy positive messaging or recycled eastern philosophy. I recommend this book to anybody who aspires for something better in life.

Chris Gethard is the Best Friend I Never Had!
This is one of those special books that you just have to listen to audio style! In fact, I placed my local Chapters with this book debating whether I should go hardback or audio. I'm really glad I chose the audiobook.
Like the headline says, Chris provides the loving, yet realistic perspective to following your dreams that only a true bff could provide.
I really want to be able to download it so by partner can give it a listen too, but I don't know if the Audible demigods allow for such downloads.
Give it a listen, I think you'll like it!

Chris Gethard is Awesome.
One time I was sitting alone at the bar of a Boston Pizza and went looking for a new podcast. Beautiful Anonymous was one of the first hits in the comedy genre and on a whim, I decided to check it out. That day changed my life for the better. With every new episode I learn more about who this guy is and what he stands for. For months I heard him plug his show, and though I did look it up and have watched a handful of episodes with my main reaction being “What the hell IS this?” I began to become more of a fan of the man who was running it. Through listening to this book, BA, a handful of other podcasts that Chris has been a part of, and watching a few awkward hours of TCGS, I have begun to think of Geth as a huge inspiration for following my heart, my dreams, and traffic lights.
Thank you.
