So I am a legal guardian to my brother. I have spent most of my life watching my brother and my father battle mental illness.

I have spent more time in psychiatric hospital visiting hours than most people my age.

And based on that, here is my take on Britney Spears' ex's new memoir.

So Kevin Federline is Britney Spears' ex-husband.

He is also the father to her two sons, and he just released a memoir.

It is titled, You Thought You Know, by Kevin Federline, and this is basically him breaking his

silence.

He is telling his side of the story as the man who was

married to Britney Spears and who has spent the better part of his life now raising their children.

And Kevin Federline, he used to be a rapper. People say he's a failed rapper. But now, to be

honest, he is just known as her ex. He rose to even more fame and popularity by being married

to her at the peak of her career. And he has now spent his life dealing with the aftermath of their marriage and her public breakdown. And we're going to talk about this book today and the public reactions and whether or not I think they're valid. Now, before we get into that, if you want to stay up to date on all things, Brett Cooper and the show, make sure to go to bret cooper.com.

I have a couple new live shows on there. I'm doing a show on November 5th, so next week in New York City, and then I have a show at Zanis here in Nashville on November 22nd. They are super fun. It's like a more high energy live version of the show. I think it's super fun, so you guys should come out and see one. All right, so let's dive into this story. I feel like my mood right now

is just a bit more som right. So let's dive into this story. I feel like my mood

right now is just a bit more somber. Maybe it's because it has been raining for like four straight

days in Nashville. Maybe it's because the baby barely slept last night and I'm filming this at like

5 p.m. instead of midday until it literally is darker. Or maybe it's just the the content that we're

diving into. But this story, as you guys probably know, based on my life, if you guys have, you know, watch any interviews with me or know this part of my story. A lot of what Kevin is talking about in this book, a lot of Brittany's story hits really close to home. And so these are stories that I enjoy talking about and I enjoy sharing this even though it can often be painful. So I don't know, maybe that's why the mood is slower today. But anyway, we should just get into this. So there's a lot of press about Kevin's book. But I don't think there's a lot of people reading it. And I think that this is a fact because apparently this book did not even crack the top 500 on Amazon.

One article reads,

7 Federer's Tell All Memoir You Thought You Knew was expected to draw major attention.

Instead, it is tanked.

According to Rob Schuster's substack, the book has failed to break into Amazon's top 500,
