About this listen
A hilarious and biting memoir from the actor, comedian, and Saturday Night Live alumnus.
David Spade is best known for his harsh "Hollywood Minute" sketches on SNL, his starring roles in movies like Tommy Boy and Joe Dirt, and his seven-year stint as Dennis Finch on the series Just Shoot Me. Now, with a wit as dry as the weather in his home state of Arizona, the "comic brat extraordinaire" delivers a memoir.
Spade takes fans back to his childhood as a wannabe cool younger brother and recounts his excruciating road tour to fame - when he was regularly mistaken for a 14-year-old. He dishes about his time on SNL during the beloved Rock/Sandler/Farley era of the 1990s and brags about the ridiculous perks that fame has brought into his life, including a crazy assistant who attacked him while he was sleeping, being threatened on the street in Beverly Hills by Eddie Murphy, and being one of the shortest guys at the Playboy mansion (the views weren't bad).
Sometimes dirty, sometimes just plain silly, David Spade reminds us what made him one of our favorite funny people.

Thoroughly enjoyed
I have been kind of off and on again with David Spade. I like him but I’ve never thought he was great. well, this book changes a lot of that. It’s a pretty good story, and he’s pretty amusing will telling it.

Always a good time.
I’ve been a spade fan since first seeing him on SNL. I throughly enjoy his wit and style of humor. I’ve listened to both his books now and I highly recommend them if you want a light hearted easy going listen. The book is full of spade style comedy (obviously) and had me laugh out loud at times.
