Introvert Superstar Wrestler

Who was your favorite character and why?

Daniel Bryan of course.

Have you listened to any of Daniel Bryan and Peter Berkrot ’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No but I did realize Peter Berkrot's voice sounds best when you up the listening speed to max level until you get to Daniel Byran's part.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes,

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would recommend this audio book to anybody regardless if they are a fan of wrestling. Terry Funk's journey through wrestling took him all over the world and his experiences are one of a kind.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Terry Funk?

Terry Funk gives many examples of how wrestlers would "rib" or play pranks on random strangers during road trips. The stories would make you cringe in disbelief or laugh uncontrollably,

What about Jeremy Arthur’s performance did you like?

Jeremy made me forget that Terry Funk was not the one reading to me. He was great.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

yes!

Any additional comments?

This story was not about a wrestler who lost everything and had a happy ending. This is about a normal man from Texas that had an amazing career in wrestling, battled difficulties and still managed to stay humble along the way.

Where does God and Starbucks rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

It is not the best audiobook I have listened to but the narrator's great storytelling made this a great listen.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Vin Bakers father was my favorite character because he plays such a big part in his life and he always remained a pillar of support for him.

Which character – as performed by Arnell Powell – was your favorite?

Arnell Powell is so talented he made every character a favorite.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The part where Vin describes his lowest point living alone and drinking all day. This part was just depressing and painful, at times it made me want to stop listening. Arnell Powell can make the listener feel like he or she is the one in that situation.

Any additional comments?

Great book.

If you could sum up Born a Crime in three words, what would they be?

Amazing Roller Coaster

What was one of the most memorable moments of Born a Crime?

Trevor's thoughts about South African police confusing Japanese with Chinese

What does Trevor Noah bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

His expert story telling, I almost cried when he was describing the part about him finding out about his mother being shot in the head. That was so painful, I could never have felt that by just reading the book.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

yes him crying in the room with his mother as she woke up.

Any additional comments?

I am glad I bought this audible book.
