ISBN: 9781938073885.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBob Odenkirk is a legend in the comedy-writing world, winning Emmys and acclaim for his work on Saturday Night Live, Mr. Show with Bob and David, and many other seminal TV shows. This book, his first, is a spleen-bruisingly funny omnibus that ranges from absurdist monologues (“Martin Luther King, Jr’s Worst Speech Ever”) to intentionally bad theater (“Hitler Dinner Party: A Play”); from avant-garde fiction (“Obituary for the Creator of Madlibs”) to free-verse poetry thats funnier and more powerful than the work of Calvin Trillin, Jewel, and Robert Louis Stevenson combined.\n\nOdenkirks debut resembles nothing so much as a hilarious new sketch comedy show that’s exclusively available as a streaming video for your mind. As Odenkirk himself writes in “The Second Coming of Jesus and Lazarus,” it is a book “to be read aloud to yourself in the voice of Bob Newhart.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"McSweeney's","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44986158252085,"sku":"ByrdShop_1938073886","price":27.08,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781938073885_b35a2e6f-596b-4442-8411-897e1baed2b9.jpg?v=1778635362","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/a-load-of-hooey-odenkirk-memorial-library-9781938073885","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
