À propos de cet audio

Beloved Saturday Night Live alum Kevin Nealon shares original full-color caricatures and insightful personal essays about his famous friends.

In I Exaggerate, famed comedian and actor Kevin Nealon pairs his artwork with sweet, funny, and endearing stories about the subjects he paints. From reminiscences about Saturday Night Live hosts to an excerpt from the eulogy he gave at his dear friend Garry Shandling’s funeral, the writing in this book is warm and nostalgic, and the list of subjects Kevin wants to cover is everyone you could hope for. In addition to Nealon’s paintings, the book includes doodles on SNL scripts, early artwork drafts, and insights into his relationship with art, which he likens to his relationship to comedy. This is a charming project from a comedy all-star.

Subjects include: Budd Friedman, Robin Williams, Johnny Carson, David Letterman, Andy Kaufman, Jim Carrey, Buzz Aldrin, Tilda Swinton, Dana Carvey, Lorne Michaels, Steve Martin, Chris Farley, Chris Rock, Daisy Edgar Jones, Timothée Chalamet, James Taylor, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Christopher Walken, Lauren Bacall, Humphrey Bogart, Howard Stern, Carrie Fisher, Elizabeth Taylor, Eddie Vedder, Kurt Cobain, Billie Eilish, John Travolta, Harry Dean Stanton, The Pointer Sisters, Garry Shandling, Tom Petty, Tiffany Haddish, Peyton Manning, Eli Manning, Emma Stone, Prince Rogers Nelson, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Freddie Mercury, Brian May, Robert Plant, Rami Malik, Jennifer Aniston, Matt LeBlanc, Dave Chappelle, Lady Gaga, Jeff Daniels, Norm MacDonald, Arnold Palmer, Brad Paisley, Ken Jeong, Ruth Bader Ginsberg, Joaquin Phoenix, Anya-Taylor Joy, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Whitney Houston, and Anthony Bourdain.

I thought there’d be more “exaggeration” parts to the stories. Nice stories though - so, you might like that.

Better title than book

He tells short stories about interactions with interesting people. Very funny and a great story teller

Great stories

I enjoyed it alot. each chapter wasn't too long so it was easy to follow along. the only downside is you don't get all the pictures with the audio version, you have to buy the book.

good listen

I always enjoy listening to an individual s journey and Kevin s journey is interesting as I recorded a piece from the Improv years ago when he did a bit about Remember When. His material was impressive to me as he could be edgy without being Potty Mouth. Seeing the art would definitely strengthen this book immensely! Cheers to Kevin, his career and his ability to tap into his various gifts.

Each chapter states a few basic, mundane “facts” about the celebrity that everyone already knows, followed by a platitude. The art in the PDF was awful too.

I regret getting this
