About this listen

 That stammer. Those basset-hound eyes. That bone-dry wit. There has never been another comedian like Bob Newhart. In this, his first audiobook ever, Newhart gives us his brilliant and bemused twist on a multitude of topics, including flying, the trials of a family holiday in a Winnebago, and more serious subjects, such as golf. And, of course, there are side-splittingly funny stories from his life and career. Who else has a drinking game named after him? ("Hi, Bob!")

This isn't a memoir like most memoirs. It's an audiobook only Bob Newhart could have conceived, with his unique worldview and irrepressibly wry humor. Oh, and there's a fair bit of plain silliness, too.

Quintessential Newhart

Interesting stories about his path to success, interspersed with several of his legendary routines. Well worth the listen!

Awesome audible book

I grew up to Newhart’s tv shows and the book was also the same awesome. I love his clean witty humour wish there were more like him. That is one man I’d love to meet and sit down and laugh with.
