It's been
one full year since I started writing to you as Audible’s comedy editor, and my monthly “letter from the editor” is still as hard to come up with now as it was then. To tell you the truth, I almost always file my copy late because I get so stressed out about writing something interesting and worth reading—I want you all to think I’m funny and consider me the greatest writer of my generation (or at the very least just the greatest writer of a monthly newsletter from an audio entertainment company).The fact that they haven’t taken the title of comedy editor away from me yet makes me feel like I’m a lot funnier than I actually am, much to the dismay of my friends. And for those of you who have stuck around and enjoyed what I have to say, thank you. I look forward to delivering many more late drafts of semi-funny jokes for you and riding this wave for as long as possible.

Historia
In sports, everybody loves redemption stories, the underdog who no one believes in but through sheer hard work wins it all. But no one tells the stories of the players who work hard and don’t make it. In pro football, 53 guys get on the roster. Ten make it to the practice squad. And then there’s the 64th Man - that’s Billy Logan (Cena), who seems to always be one spot from glory.

I LOVE YOU JOHN CENA!

John Cena's takeover continues
John Cena’s jump from champion wrestler to all around mega star has been one of the more exciting career transformations to watch over the past few years, mostly because he seems to go be good at everything—including narration. And the high profile cast of this Audible Original about a could’ve been, should’ve been football star forced to move back home doesn’t start and end there. Anna Chlumsky, Jane Curtin, Will Forte, Leslie Jones, Mark-Paul Gosselaar, Jay Pharaoh, and more all play a part in making 64th Man one of the funniest things I’ve listened to this year.

Historia
Set on a large ranch in rural upstate New York, it’s early days for the eccentric group of people who call themselves "The Zeta Family" - quite possibly the next big cult phenomenon. Our protagonist, Katie, is an aspiring reporter who has decided to infiltrate the compound, and her future success as a journalist depends entirely on her ability to win the confidence of Zeta Doug, the likable spiritual leader of the group. He’s like a cross between Hunter S. Thompson and George R. R. Martin, with a little too much sci-fi in his head and acid in his blood stream.

Cults and comedy
This one checks a lot of boxes for me: it’s got a little suspense-thriller action in it, a truly awesome cast of narrators, and it’s funny (which is exactly what you came here for). Kevin Nealon, Amy Goodmurphy, and Natasha Lyonne really make this already great story about a journalist secretly infiltrating a cult in upstate New York even better and the sound design is just *chef’s kiss*. Referring to The Zeta Family as anything less than a truly original audio experience would be an understatement.

Historia
From the creator of the beloved and universally acclaimed television series BoJack Horseman, a fabulously off-beat collection of short stories about love - the best and worst thing in the universe. Equally at home with the surreal and the painfully relatable (and both at once), Bob-Waksberg delivers a killer combination of humor, romance, whimsy, cultural commentary, and crushing emotional vulnerability.

Love in all of its weirdness
Those who know me know that short stories are my thing. I write them, I read them, and in a kind of twisty-turny way, they got me here at Audible. So I owe a lot to the form, and I take every chance I get to sing the praises of a good short story collection. Someone Who Will Love You in All Your Damaged Glory is not just a book with an excellent title and cover; it’s an experience—a weird, surreal, laugh-out-loud-on-the-subway-while-listening-to-it kind of experience that only the creator of the critically acclaimed animated series BoJack Horseman can provide. I could go on about the stories I really dig in this collection and how special the full cast narration is, but I think you should just check it out for yourself.

Historia
When love reigns supreme in Northridge High just outside Chicago, by the lake, it happens beneath the soft, pink-infused spotlights hovering over that most special night of the year - prom night. Passable in Pink is an Audible Original from New York Times best-selling author Mike Sacks (Stinker Lets Loose!). Sacks has teamed up once again with director Eric Jason Martin (Stinker Lets Loose!, Heads Will Roll) to adapt a forgotten John Hughes-type 1983 movie into a fully immersive cinematic audio experience, with an epic all-star cast.

Historia
By the time Chloé Hilliard was 12, she wore a size 12 - both shoe and dress - and stood over six feet tall. Fitting in was never an option. That didn’t stop her from trying. Cursed with a “slow metabolism”, “baby weight”, and “big bones” - the fat trilogy - Chloe turned to fad diets, starvation, pills, and workouts, all of which failed. Realizing that everything - from government policies to corporate capitalism - directly impacts our relationship with food and our waistlines, Chloé changed her outlook on herself and hopes others will do the same for themselves.
