Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
David Sedaris #5
David Sedaris (Happy-Go-Lucky, A Carnival of Snackery, Calypso) is a comedian, humorist, and author. David returns to the Armchair Expert to discuss why his Picasso painting is what he would grab in a fire, what in 50 years we will see as unforgivable, and how you can have a towering hatred for someone who has no idea. David and Dax talk about the paradox of stinky, kissable money, how he schemed an off-the-rack priest outfit, and the nuance in offensiveness. David explains that there’s nothing better than a pants-shitting story, a defense of a children’s book with no less...

Chapter 18: David Sedaris on holding happiness hostage and healing holes in our hearts
Who else loves David Sedaris? I discovered him in 1997 when an old mentor/editor at Golden Words, my college humor papers, suggested I pick up his book 'Naked' to become a better writer myself. I found the essays sardonic, witty, uncannily observational, and laugh-out-loud funny. I couldn't believe how gently and elegantly he wrote about topics ranging from his obsessive compulsive tics to dropping out of school to (in the namesake essay) visiting a nudist colony. Like millions of people around the world I became obsessed with David Sedaris. I've read all of...

Episode 47: We read "Holidays on Ice by David Sedaris"
In this episode, we read three essays from the book Holidays on Ice by David Sedaris. David Sedaris’s Santaland Diaries is a hilariously candid essay recounting his experience as a seasonal Christmas elf named “Crumpet” at Macy’s department store in New York City. In this essay he discusses becoming an Elf, elf duties, holiday cynicism, etc. The essay is filled with laugh-out-loud moments, such as Sedaris recounting elf pep talks, sarcastically responding to customer demands, or reflecting on the surreal environment of Santaland. The second essay - David Sedaris’s Season’s Greetings to Our Frien...

David Sedaris con Marco Archetti
"L'umorismo cammina sul sentiero del paradosso", diceva Giovannino Guareschi, e su questo sentiero David Sedaris ha consumato le suole di molte scarpe. Tra i più influenti scrittori statunitensi contemporanei, l'autore di Me parlare bello un giorno e del recente Cuor contento il ciel lo aiuta ha sempre saputo rileggere in chiave comica le assurdità della vita quotidiana, spesso attingendo dalle avventure e disavventure familiari. Muovendosi dall'infinitamente piccolo di un brutto regalo di Natale all'infinitamente grande della perdita di una sorella, è riuscito dimostrare che ovunque si può nascondere una storia capace di strapparci un sorriso commosso.

But when we spoke, he wasn’t feeling it much at all. Had some symptoms that might have been allergies or COVID but were barely noticeable. Other people have it a lot worse, he says.David has been delighting audiences for 30 years now, ever since the broadcast of Santaland Diaries. His latest book, Happy-Go-Lucky, is deceptively titled, containing a lot of stories and memories that are pretty painful. David’s father died last year at...

Gli Scampati di David Sedaris
"Calypso" è un libro di racconti dello scrittore e umorista americano David Sedaris, pubblicata nel 2018 ( ed. italiana Mondadori, 2019). Ho scelto "Gli Scampati", in cui una coppia gay si interroga sul proprio passato. Per anni David Sedaris è stato considerato il più importante scrittore di humour del panorama letterario internazionale, una sorta di Alan Bennett statunitense. Ma questa raccolta di storie segna una svolta importante nella sua produzione. La magistrale verve narrativa di Sedaris, la sua capacità di cogliere e immortalare quei momenti di totale assurdità che costituiscono la tessitura più vera delle nostre vite, la sua passione per le dinamiche familiari (e non) più...

OK, we’ll do it. You want us to wear a mask the entire time? OK, we’ll do it,’” Sedaris says. “And then the book signings have lasted as long as they always did, so people are still w...
