Run, don’t walk, to iTunes Canada and download this amazing and FREE audio book by American humourist John Hodgman. The Areas of My Expertise can only be described as fake trivia. You might know Hodgman from The Daily Show, McSweenys, the New York Times Magazine, This American Life, or CBC’s Wiretap. But chances are far greater that you know him simply as ‘PC’ from the ‘Get a Mac’ Advertisements by Apple. Predictably, John ‘PC’ Hodgman uses a Mac.
I downloaded The Areas of My Expertise and I’ve heard 1.5 hours of it’s 6 hours of joy, trivia and frivolity. At the beginning of the book John asks if we are sure we want to listen to this book. Now my ears are bleeding. Good question, John.
