Now, in Big Mouth, Matt opens up about his early years for the first time—the good and the bad, the tragic and the ecstatic. Like the man himself, it's a story that's joyous, funny and larger than life. It's also, perhaps unexpectedly, filled with pathos and emotional depth, set to a pulsating 1980s soundtrack.

Most of us are taught that the worst “World Wars” happened in the 20th century. World War I followed by World War 2 killed 70 million people and destroyed millions of square miles of land, property, and cities. 3 percent of the human populations died.

While some believe that only 44 presidents should be remembered, the other 17 need to be considered as well.
