About this listen

From the author of the best-selling Why We Suck comes a searing comic look at these divisive times, skewering liberals and conservatives alike with a signature dose of sarcasm and common sense.

Denis Leary refutes the current highly partisan Right Wing Nutjob versus Left Wing Snowflake approach to American politics - where you're either one or the other, with no gray areas in between. Leading a new protest movement called Gray Lives Matter, he takes equal opportunity aim at the screaming heads we see arguing every night on CNN (the Clinton News Network) and Fox's Fair and Balanced Republican Report. With a devoted mission to Make America Laugh Again, Denis tackles the topics we all hold close to our American hearts: Twitter, Instagram, and the seemingly endless search for fame and diet vodka.

In a country so gluten-free that a box of jelly donuts is now a bigger threat than Vladimir F**king Putin - where college kids are more afraid of Ann Coulter than HIV - it's time for someone to stand up and stop the insanity. Or at least defend the double cheeseburger. With a side order of free porn. Denis is that guy.

He'll answer such burning questions as: When will Hillary run out of pantsuits? And why wasn't her campaign motto "Hey America - It's My F**king Turn!"? As Denis says in the book, "Trump's election gave me faith that even I could be president. Look at his track record: canceled TV show, thin skin, angry tweets, and an attractive wife. According to that formula, I'm one bad comb-over away from living in the White House." We're all in this together, and Denis Leary is here to remind us what makes America number seven on the list of Best Countries to Live In - which may sound bad but means at least we still make the playoffs.

Includes a PDF of Map and Tweets from the Book

Hey, he's my age?!

This was a much needed change from the doom and gloom news sites that occupy my days and nights while driving 18 wheels down the road. This was my kind of humor with insight on things that "journalist's" love to vomit out simply for click-bait. Good job!

Two books

I found the book really funny but a little strange there is a part that just goes off track about how people mistake him for others ... does not tie in to the rest (so 3 stars). The rest of the book very good and ties together (5 stars).

Started out strong and got weaker as it went along

The first few chapters were an excellent critique of the current state of politics in the United States. As the book goes along it morphs into rambling stories about Leary's past that have little or nothing to do with the title. Many of these stories are never related back to the subject of the book or are only loosely related. Once past the initial few chapters the book seems disjointed and jerks from story to story without any real theme. Overall, worth listening for the first few chapters and some funny bits but it could have been a lot better if it stuck to the subject matter in the title.

I would recognize you Denis at first glance and I’d love to prove it.

Completely enjoyed your audible book. I almost never stopped laughing. Amongst the laughter and sarcasm there is a never ending supply of wisdom to be gleaned. I am an avid reader, always have been. I listen or read a minimum of 3 books weekly, AND have NEVER left a review, not ever, until this moment. I’ve recommended and even buy books often for others, but have never left a review. I don’t know why I chose to do so this time, maybe because I think this book would appeal to the masses and go on to inspire even more. Thank you Denis. Loved your masterpiece and love you more. Lois

Always look behind you before you shit

Hours of laughter, pissing your pants, and wishing that you could have the opportunity to sit in your back yard and crack a beer with the good Doctor. Stop taking yourself so seriously, break down your boundaries and listen to this book. Honestly, we’d be in a much better place if we could all could “stop being such partisan little bitches”.
