About this listen

A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER. From writer/director Cazzie David comes a series of acerbic, darkly funny essays about anxiety, social media, misanthropy, and growing up in a wildly eccentric family.

For Cazzie David, the world is one big trap door leading to death and despair and social phobia. From shame spirals caused by hookups to panic attacks about being alive and everyone else having to be alive too, David chronicles her life’s most chaotic moments with wit, bleak humor, and a mega-dose of self-awareness.

In No One Asked for This, David provides listeners with a singular but ultimately relatable tour through her mind, as she explores existential anxiety, family dynamics, and the utterly modern dilemma of having your breakup displayed on the Internet. With pitch-black humor resonant of her father, comedy legend Larry David, and topics that speak uniquely to generational malaise, No One Asked for This is the perfect companion for when you don’t really want a companion.

"Blisteringly honest...kind of like if a David Sedaris book was written by an anxiety-ridden millennial who grew up in Hollywood."—Entertainment Weekly

"Cazzie David is the delicious antidote to the poison of basic influencer culture. This book will make all misanthropes feel seen and loved—well, seen and tolerated."—Diablo Cody, screenwriter and author of Candy Girl

Interesting story. Worth a listen.

I've seen a lot of people complain because she's from a famous/wealthy family to but I found it an interesting reminder that money cannot solve all problems. She obviously struggles with mental health, and it's refreshing to hear someone talk about their struggles, despite their wealth.

Bravo!!!

Can “maybe” understand the people who disn’t like the book (if they wanted a lighthearted story). But this is not it!!! Just go read the latest romance or superficial self help. This is not for you.

This book touches me in so many way, when you have, like me, event a bit of anxiety, selfdoubt, ptsd… this book is awsome! She puts words on emotions and feelings that I couldnt. Thank you thank you! And can only say BRAVO.
