A Bathroom Book for People Not Pooping or Peeing But Using the Bathroom as an Escape by Joe Pera
5.0
I know, the title. Forget the "p" words (which are in extra-small print on the cover, anyway). This short audiobook is for anyone that can relate to feeling anxious and needing a time-out to regroup.
I'm a big fan of Joe's gentle comedy and his brilliantly comforting "Joe Pera Talks With You" television series. If you haven't seen it, it's an odd, funny, and relentlessly sweet spiritual successor to the shows that Fred Rogers and Carl Sagan created. Calm and meditative (if a bit quirky), directly addressing you while celebrating life's everyday joys with sincere appreciation and wonder, even throwing in the occasional history lesson for good measure.
The music and sound design essentially make this a bonus episode of the show. The audiobook is only fifteen minutes long but they're all surreal, warm, and weirdly reassuring.
