Publisher's Summary
What? You don’t know Adam Wade? Here’s your chance! Adam Wade’s personal-yet-universal stories and vulnerable delivery have made him one of the most popular storytellers and comedians in the country on "story slam" platforms like The Moth and Comedy Central’s Whiplash.
This Audible Original, performed on stage in front of a live audience, combines Wade’s greatest hits stories with entirely new material. It takes listeners on a guided tour through Adam’s life, starting with his humble beginnings as a geeky but lovable underdog in rural New Hampshire. Adam then lets listeners in on the support he received from his family and friends as he overcame countless obstacles to achieve his dream of making it as a comedic storyteller in New York City.
Adam’s nuanced observations, openness, and wit transform these coming-of-age tales into funny, impactful, and universal stories of joy and hope. Wade’s stories pull listeners in, reminding them of what it is to be human and that we all experience happiness, shame, failures, triumphs, and moments of incredible courage.

Greg Donahue’s The Minuteman, tells the story of one of Newark’s native sons; ex-prizefighter and longtime Zwillman enforcer Sidney Abramowitz, a.k.a. Nat Arno, who took over leadership of the Minutemen in 1934 and made it his personal business to put an end to what he saw as the Bund’s “anti-American” activities. For six years, Arno and his crew of vigilantes battled Newark’s Nazis at every turn. The Minuteman is a story of the ethics of violence in the face of fascism; a forgotten legacy that is as relevant now as it was nearly a hundred years ago.

But Shining is now something more than human. And the scrapyard is no longer just a scrapyard, but a place full of secrets. This life she has built, while empty, is predictable and safe. Until the only friend left from her previous life shows up, dead, in the back of a scrapped Tesla warplane. Clutched in her cold fingers is a note to Shining - warning her of a coming attack.

She’s on the run from a dangerous and secretive organization that will stop at nothing to track her down. And most astonishing of all: she’s a robot, a product of Eden Laboratories. When Eve discovers the truth, she realizes everything she thought she knew about herself is a lie. Eve manages to escape, fleeing the lab, the only home she’s ever known.

Samantha is a professional seductress and con artist with a heart of gold. If she talked about her work, she’d tell you she only pilfers organs for medical research and that she only takes one kidney, and she only steals those kidneys from dishonest people. It’s hell on her social life. Abe is the doctor and Sam's partner in crime. He isn’t much of a criminal. Except for the kidney stealing. But he’s using that money to fund his research that he anticipates will be able to cure diabetes. So, all for a good cause...? You decide. Of course, it's hell on his social life.

In the summer of 1937, Amelia Earhart is the most famous woman in the world - a record-breaking pilot, a best-selling author, and a modern woman shattering the glass ceiling in the early days of aviation. And then she vanishes. In Tampa, Florida, 15-year-old Lizzie Friedlander spends her afternoons glued to her father’s radio, tapping into the enormity of a world she longs to travel. Lizzie can hardly believe her ears when she picks up a radio signal from a faraway source that sets her heart racing: “Amelia Earhart calling SOS!”

The tide is turning against the colonists in the Revolutionary War, and 18-year-old Elizabeth Morris cannot sit by idly. Quietly disdainful of her Tory parents, who drag her along to society events and welcome a British soldier into their home during their occupation of New York City, Elizabeth decides to take matters into her own hands. She realizes that, as a young woman, no one around her believes that she can comprehend the profound implications of being a nation at war - she is, effectively, invisible. And she can use this invisibility to her advantage.

Touching anecdotes with sincerity and vulgarity
Adam Wade is a pretty good storyteller, but, as Audible warns at the beginning of the audiobook, listener discretion is advised. Vulgar language and sexual themes are present.

So depressing
This guy is supposed be be a great story teller. I guess it depends on your definition. If a great story teller is someone who explains in excruciating detail every horrible event of his life in a voice that sounds like he’s going to cry at any second, well then, this guy is the best! I think it’s supposed to be funny in a self-deprecating way, but it wasn’t. It was just sad and pathetic. I’m depressed from listening to it. This was a freebie. Maybe I should have gone with the apocalyptic biker cat option. Trying to survive the end of the world would’ve been a happier story. I’m gonna go cry now.

Great story teller
Adam’s story comes straight from the heart. I laughed out loud and yet there were times I was touched by his struggles. He’s the kind of person you want to meet. I can’t wait until he comes out with book 2.

Enjoyable, self-deprecating humor
Although Adam's humor does not make me laugh until I cry, I found this audible selection enjoyable. For those who found it sad, the fact that he rose above his years of being bullied and used it as material to be successful, is not sad at all. This should be required listening for all middle school kids. It takes a talented comedian to get laughs without being completely vulgar these days.

Spectacular
I've never laughed so hard while feeling so uncomfortable in my life. For every adult that was a hopeless, socially uncomfortable kid, you tapped so many emotions, and brought back so many colon-tightening events that it reminded me how much I survived to get where I am. Congratulations on swinging the bat!

A sweetness that is sorely missing
I wish more people had a genuine goodness and sweetness that is Adam. The world would be better if more of us were more like him.

Warning please
There should be a warning that there are adult themes and language in the description of any selection. I don't appreciate finding out as I started listening. What a waste. I might have selected something else from the free selections had I known. I don't care to listen to that type of thing.

Still smiling
What a sweetheart this guy is. I listened while taking my daily walks. Sometimes I’d laugh out loud and sometimes I could feel the pain. Martin Scorsese said “the more personal the more creative.” I loved it. Made me feel so human.
