“Packed with chapter after chapter of Benjamin’s easygoing tales of failure and inability to follow through on stated goals, the book’s biggest and most meta joke is its thoroughgoing rejection of the widespread American tradition of a can-do self-help mentality that permeates most memoirs” notes Alex McLevy of AV Club. An excerpt from the book about his failed Children’s show appeared on Vulture. Dutton published the hardcover on May 1, 2018.
