Publisher Description
In this brilliantly entertaining and heartfelt memoir, beloved star and comic maverick Bob Odenkirk writes honestly about the highs and lows of showbiz: his work on infamous cult comedy Mr. Show, as a performer and writer on legendary series such as The Larry Sanders Show and Saturday Night Live, becoming everyone's favourite lawyer in global hit TV series' Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, and what it's like to reinvent himself as an action film ass-kicker at fifty in Nobody. Bob Odenkirk's career is inexplicable. And yet he will try like hell to explicate it for you...
Featuring humorous tangents, never-before-seen photos, wild characters, and Bob's trademark unflinching drive and humour, Comedy Comedy Comedy Drama is a classic showbiz tale told by a determined idiot.

Customer Reviews
Great Listen, wonderful recollection of influential comedy figures
If you are a fan of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul this is obviously a book for you. However as a bonus you get a wonderful trip down memory lane with the greats of Second City, SNL, and David Cross. This is the first memoir I have listened to that discusses the double groove on Monty Python’s matching tie and handkerchief. If that means anything to you, this is also the book for you. I listened to the audiobook, and it is one of those books that benefits greatly from the author’s narration.
Avoids Saul a lot
People are not buying this to hear 85% about a comedy career. They buying it to hear about the experience of Saul, Which he doesn’t even get to until right near the end a book. A bit of a slog
