Publisher's summary
Meet the parenting guide that promises NOT to make you a better parent. Dive into Gone in 30 Seconds and navigate the treacherous waters of fatherhood, where every dad is just one sticky hand away from a meltdown (and we're not talking about the kids). Author Jason Banks, a self-proclaimed master of dad-dodging, serves up a hearty helping of humor, teaching fathers everywhere the art of sneaking in a little "me time", even if it’s in the most unexpected of places.
Discover:
- Why the bathroom is your new best friend (Hint: It's not for the reasons you think).
- How to turn child's play into "stay-away-from-dad" play.
- Secret stashes, silent nights, and other tales from the dad-side.
Whether you're a dad looking for camaraderie, a partner seeking to understand the peculiar antics of fatherhood, or just someone who loves a good belly laugh, this book has got you covered. Warning: May induce uncontrollable laughter, spit-takes, and the occasional snort.
Reclaim your throne (Yes, that one in the bathroom). Dive into a world where dad jokes meet real-life anecdotes and every minute promises a chuckle. Because let's face it—dads need a break, too. Even if it's just for 30 seconds.

In this award-winning Audible Studios production, Trevor Noah tells his wild coming-of-age tale during the twilight of apartheid in South Africa. It’s a story that begins with his mother throwing him from a moving van to save him from a potentially fatal dispute with gangsters, then follows the budding comedian’s path to self-discovery through episodes both poignant and comical.

Traumatized by the bombing of Dresden at the time he had been imprisoned, Pilgrim drifts through all events and history, sometimes deeply implicated, sometimes a witness. He is surrounded by Vonnegut's usual large cast of continuing characters (notably here the hack science fiction writer Kilgore Trout and the alien Tralfamadorians, who oversee his life and remind him constantly that there is no causation, no order, no motive to existence).

As a precocious kid who took Broadway by storm at the age of 18, Laura Benanti spent her formative years playing grown-ups onstage, but it took her a while to figure out how to be one in real life. With her razor-sharp wit and unapologetic candor, Benanti shares her hard-won insights on topics like marriage, motherhood, perimenopause, female friendship, and making peace with the younger versions of ourselves.

What would happen if a shy introvert lived like a gregarious extrovert for one year? If she knowingly and willingly put herself in perilous social situations that she’d normally avoid at all costs? Writer Jessica Pan intends to find out. With the help of various extrovert mentors, Jessica sets up a series of personal challenges (talk to strangers, perform stand-up comedy, host a dinner party, travel alone, make friends on the road, and much, much worse) to explore whether living like an extrovert can teach her lessons that might improve the quality of her life.

Hilarious, fascinating, and a roller coaster of dizzying, historical what-ifs, Napoleon's Hemorrhoids is a potpourri for serious historians and casual history buffs. In one of Phil Mason's many revelations, you'll learn that Communist jets were two minutes away from opening fire on American planes during the Cuban missile crisis, when they had to turn back as they were running out of fuel. You'll discover that before the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon's painful hemorrhoids prevented him from mounting his horse to survey the battlefield.

Myrna, Leonie, and Chrissy meet every Thursday to sample fine cheeses, to reminisce about their former lives as professors, and lately, to muse about murder. Decades ago, a vicious cabal of male poets contrived—quite publicly and successfully—to undermine the writing career, confidence, and health of their dear friend Fern. Now, after Fern has taken a turn for the worse, her three old friends decide that it’s finally time to strike back—in secret, of course, since Fern is far too gentle to approve of a vendetta.
