I get all of his books out of the library and his audiobooks on CD; so I'm glad that he approves of that 🙂

Thanks for this- I will look for it!

[@noraleebauthuesstewart1936]

Thanks; it was a great interview, and very comfortable (as opposed to this particular interview). I just finished "Calypso" so timing is spot on.

Why is Jon Ross laughing when one wouldn't. It's not about you Jon Boy

[@raspberiswrl]

Yeah, his sporadic, ill-timed laughter is really distracting.

[@stephenclarke01]

motorbikehorseman Blame the sound guy - Jonathan's mic should not be up at that point.

[@reef4hmmm]

Seriously!!!!! I want to say STHU!!

[@RatTaxi]

motorbikehorseman JR is doing the kind of automatic laughing at EVER THING that David refers to when asked about the difficulty of being taken seriously when one is a humor writer. Also, it's NOT SeDAHris, you nincompoop.

[@apexxxx10]

motorbikehorseman DISTURBING!

[@nonbiz1520]

Band name I've always dreamed David Sedaris would approve of? - " Bit's of Barry"

[@ownpetard8379]

2:51 wizard sleeve - never heard of that term, nor the band.

[@hurdygurdyguy1]

Me either... I scrolled through the comments to see if anyone said what if meant...no luck so far... Just googled it ... oooohhhh, now I get it! 🤣🤣🤣

[@WNH3]

I think it may have been popularized in "Borat" wherein he compares a woman's genitalia with "sleeve of wizard"

[@atabutter440]

Some people are so overly sensitive about things "Chinese Food". Just suck it up, it's called humour and taste in food for that matter.

[@apexxxx10]

David Sedaris has beautiful teeth. Did you know that? Bangkok-Johnny, again.

[@elivasgam]

Reminds me of a gay Larry David,. Think the movie would have been monumental success, for those who appreciate clever wit. Much like "Curb..."

The more I listen to David when he is speaking off the cuff, the more I prefer his readings and books.

[@stregalilith]

This is the fault of the interviewer who laughs at everything the author says. Same laugh whether the comments are funny or thoughtful or serious--absolutely RUINS the interview.

[@AllenFreemanMediaGuru]

As much as I wanted to hear the reading the host’s distracting laughter kept telling me, move on. 😕

"Slave." There, I said it.

His opinion of his father has matured since this interview. Maybe years of therapy brought to the forefront that his father was a huge dick to him….until dementia set in.

[@ellenms7703]

This is not one of Jon Ross best interviews... He just seems off, not very relaxed... Next time Jon.

[@tthom2459]

who the hell is this obnoxious interviewer . . . and how did he get this job? Soooo Annoying. I'm surprised that David didn't address this.

[@HelenaMikas]

Grief Ross has the most awful laugh when it isn't right for him .Has he no idea about the enjoyment for the audience he's ruining ? Clearly not .David Sedaris is brilliant but got to the point when the stupid laugh was just too much ..

[@stregalilith]

YES! Ross laughs robotically at everything David says, as though he's not listening at anything David says and it's awful.

[@Fridaynon]

Interviewer is so annoying lol

[@robinwise9279]

i like listening to him but he is very lucky with his family because he preys on them, better artists don't do this so specifically

[@wcfields547]

He doesn’t prey on them he uses memory and expands on this and “better artists don’t do this specifically “ really don’t know who you have been reading or listening to within your narrow criteria but I fear your criticism is misplaced

[@robinwise9279]

@@wcfields547 of course every artistic writer uses really close stuff, it is what is known, but when david's sister who has mental illness turns up at his theatre room and he orders his manager to shut the door on her and he never sees her alive again? and then he uses that? thoroughly dislikeable on several levels, David is very adroit, listenable, but actually, not very nice

[@hurdygurdyguy1]

"Better artists" ??? How about examples instead of empty phrases 🤣

Is Jon's inability to pronounce the letter r an accent or a speech impediment?

Speech issue. He has a lisp.

The title's inclusion of "Diabetes" is offensive. And Jonathan Ross needs intense speech therapy. Who is his audience?

[@leonardodalongisland]

Why do the Brits hire so many radio and TV personalities that have speech impediments and slight lisps? It's so damn annoying and distracting.
