Does this count as a memoir? I don't really know what to call it because it really was more of a collection of anecdotes. I can't say it was lol funny, but there were some really interesting and amusing parts, mostly about other celebrities (looking at you, Tom Cruise and George Lucas), the process behind some of his movies (but annoyingly not the ones I did like lol), and his parents and grandparents who are a hoot.

Discusses his experiences with racism and antisemitism, as a Jewish man through out the book. Explicit mentioning of different drugs and drug use. Some NSFW content (there's a chapter about when he discovered porn as a teenager, and while it's not super graphic for Seth Rogen, still not safe to listen to around children or at work). Overall he sounded very self-aware and much more intelligent than the roles he plays in movies reflect him to be. I would highly recommend the audiobook, he has a good narrator's voice and I believe he had celebrities voice their lines in most of the stories he told about them that involved dialouge. I didn't find this to contain any sexist/racist/ otherwise problematic offensive content, which is always a good suprise coming from a comedians memoir.
