His blog www.howtobeatupanything.com is currently a great book - Punching Tom Hanks - check that out It's good stuff. Enjoy. Audible is sponsoring this episode of TDF. You know how you can get that deal - a free month and one free book if you join Audible from any number of sites? Well, it's true HERE now. SO. If you've been thinking about joining Audible go here and do it NOW. I have an audible account. It's how I listened to all of Sarah Vowell's books. Cuz they're funny but VERY smarty magoo. So, hearing the facts, told by her with timing was even better than reading it. www.allthingscomedy.com is the podcast network TDF is with and they have a lot of great podcasts and things happening over there. Check them OUT. Because there's a sponsor doesn't mean that you can't DONATE ... I'm working over here. www.dorkforest.com and www.jackiekashian.com have everything going on.
