Fits the name of the book!

I’ve listened and read everything Wayne Dyer wrote.
This one is funny and a little spicy with the adult humor.
As usual - simple, please to listen and wise.

The Earliest Dyer

This audiobook is poorly labelled. While the cover shows Wayne in later years, this is actually his FIRST audiobook, originally published in 1979. It's a live recording of a weekend seminar at the University of Minnesota. Wayne riffs on material from "Your Erroneous Zones" and "Pulling Your Own Strings" and describes a work-in-progress, "The Man from Uranus" (which ended up becoming "Gifts from Eykis").

This is the only audiobook preserving what Wayne's lectures were like in the '70s, when he was mixing psychology and stand-up comedy. I wish his "Tonight Show" appearances were on YouTube--alas, they're nowhere to be found online--but this audiobook gives a taste. Listen to this and learn why he was a repeat guest with Johnny Carson and others.

Years later, in another lecture, Wayne explained that he didn't continue to promote "Wit & Wisdom" because the salty language & humor contrasted with his other audiobooks and put off some listeners, but he left it up for sale. That's how I found out about it.

Here's a chronology of Wayne's earlier audiobooks available on Audible:

How to Be a No-Limit Person (1980)
Secrets of the Universe (1983)
