i totally agree—the book sounds like it’s going to be incredible. The beginning really pulled me in too. The way he tells the story is so vivid, almost cinematic. He has this knack for painting a picture, especially with how he portrays the lives of those two young guys. You can really feel the energy of their wild, carefree days—drinking, partying, living that reckless youth. It’s all so relatable.
i actually discovered him during a podcast interview too. There was something about the way he talked about his writing and his book that just felt different. It was intriguing enough that I had to check it out. The book title alone is unforgettable.
What that dude doesn’t realize is that the beer served in hell will be non-alcoholic. I mean, IT’S HELL, right? And warm non-alcohol beer to boot.
(For the record, I don’t drink either—not even the warm non-alcoholic imitations. I grew up on a hop farm though—so all beer-loving hellions can at least thank me and my dad for that.)
Yo Kert, I gotta say, they owe you big time for holding it down like that. Every Beer lover out there needs to know about this. That’s truly legendary, especially for someone who doesn’t even indulge in his own supply. That was seriously an impressive act. 😅
Maybe they can send crates of non-alcoholic ones your way?
First off - the fact you mentioned that you don't finish every single book you read. I thought that was interesting. Most times, we just need some juicy parts and we're good to go, in a sense (not to slander reading or anything)
Secondly, was that guys like so miserable that he was earnestly looking forward to the afterlife? And not just that, HELL?
It takes a level of audacity to reason that way tbh!
It seems like an interesting read, but I'm not sure if I can handle books like that at this stage, so yeah!
i actually love your curiousity. It jumps off the page and i just thought to let you know.
about books, i’ve read a handful of self help or business books and one thing common with them is repetition. They say one thing in 7000 other ways. While it helps me learn how to always explain an idea in several other ways, most times, it’s a pain on my brain to consume the underlying idea over and over again.
so, i’ve learnt to HELP mySELF by chewing the meat of the book and leaving the bones.
about the hell guy, yes it’s defo a bloody audacity (curiousity on steroids)
about the book, it’s is very different from what i wrote in the essay tho. It’s a memoir of the guy’s life.
I wish this piece was longer. I loved it and I shall go and find that book. 😂 I like how you spoke about it. Intriguing enough for me.
