David Spade Performs His New Memoir as an Audible Original

David Spade stands center with a polaroid camera in hand, snapping a photo, while four female stylists surround him prepping his hair and clothing for a photo shoot.

The title captures it perfectly. A Polaroid Guy in a Snapchat World, David Spade’s new memoir, explores his life through a series of hysterical takes on everything from why it’s getting harder to date, to what it’s like being a dad now, to suddenly being the “old guy” on set.

Inspired by the comedy albums he listened to as a kid, the actor, comedian, and SNL alumnus conceived and performed his memoir specifically for the Audible listening experience in this Audible Original.

“It was a fun experience trying to make my stories come to life,” said Spade. “I grew up listening to comedy albums, so being able to perform this was exciting to me. I’m stoked for people to hear it and for the younger generation to realize how easy they have it these days.”

“Spade’s laugh-out-loud memoir was meant to be heard,” said David Blum, Editor-in-Chief of Audible Originals. “Having David Spade in your ear makes you feel as if he is sitting right next to you, giving you a private audience as he shares hilarious stories that are quintessentially Spade.”
