Publisher's summary

From the creator and star of the “deeply funny, unexpectedly informative” (The Daily Beast) Netflix mockumentary Cunk on Earth, a helpful guide covering every single topic in the known universe, from Adam and Eve to Top Gun.

Once in a blue moon, a book comes along that changes the world. The Origin of Species. War and Peace. 1984. And now, Cunk on Everything: The Encyclopedia Philomena, by Philomena Cunk.

Philomena Cunk is one of the greatest thinkers of the 21st century, and in Cunk on Everything she turns her attention to our biggest issue: why are there so many books? Wouldn't it be better if there was just one? This is that book—an encyclopedia of all human knowledge, delving into not only life's greatest mysteries but our most important political figures and cultural touchstones.

Listen to it, and you'll never have to explore another book again.

Just as good as her shows!

This book was hilarious. The same energy that Philomena (Diane Morgan) gives in her show, is on full display here. Absolutely delightful.

Cunk is such a damn genius

each time i listen, I catch more layers of her subtle comedic brilliance! but don't listen at night if you like to fall asleep to audiobooks...your own chuckling will keep you awake. better for chores or exercising, or driving.

Professor in ALL Studies -- Most Accurate Book I've Ever Read

Incredible skill of this talented writer to have clearly taken the time to cover everything relevant to our modern world. No other books need be written. Congratulations, Philomena.

Very funny!

Very funny. Sadly there are no references to the unrelated Belgian techno anthem, “Pump up the Jam.”

It helps to be English…

because there are lots of references to British celebrities. Still plenty funny, though. I laughed a lot.

Wonderfully irreverent

I wish it was longer.
All these superfluous words are just to meet the 15 word minimum requirement to post the review

Better than

I first bought the printed book, but I couldn’t get it to work. The audio version works fine though. I play it loud in the restroom at work to drown out other peoples’ thoughts.
Unable to listen to around literally anyone, especially with headphones.

Brilliant and enlightening

Well, one of the two, anyway. You will learn things here that no one else has even thought about. "They were Danish, like Lego, and, like Legos, the Vikings were very painful to stand on."

Philomena is the total package

I can/t remember when I’ve laughed so much. Brilliantly funny and the delivery is a treat.

Brilliantly idiotic!

Philomena Cunk delivers history and current events in an absolutely hilarious (incorrect) and perfectly deadpan delivery!
