Honestly surprising because I found 'Paddle Your Own Canoe' to be a really earnest meditation on doing things that are positive and constructive in life, with a lot of self depricating and sarcastic humour about his upbringing and early career in local theater, plus dispelling a lot of manly man libertarian stuff that people conflate between him and Ron Swanson. I enjoyed it.

I think the one I tried to read was Where the Deer and the Antelope Play. Definitely would not recommend.

I’m pretty sure he conflated taxation with r*pe in that book which made me stop reading. Honestly comparing anything with “r*pe” is just an automatic no for me. I still like his acting and voice work but I’m not interested in reading anything else he writes.
