Just want to remind folks that Rebecca and I will be at Obsessed Fest this year. It's October 20th

It's 22nd. It's in Dallas, Texas and speaking of our friend Patrick Hines. He has a new book out. Yes, and it's hilarious

You have your copy. It's called failure is not not an option. That's right. So you know, we know Patrick's life is ridiculous

So he's put together a 12 of his most embarrassing and outrageous stories in this book. They're all you know true to life

I mean, I didn't go fact check them, but I'm just gonna assume

They're funny and not going back in time. I did you know Rebecca? I don't know if you got to this part in the book yet that he and his husband Steve

They spent 18 months transforming their apartment into a daycare. Yeah. Yes

And then they closed after one week

Yes, because I realized the they don't like other people's children

And Patrick was once very excited to spend the weekend with

gay icon and golden girl living legend be Arthur

I'd say he's always hinted at what a disaster this was

So he get to hear the whole story

also

Patrick spent his whole lifetime wondering if his lesbian mother hooked up with Glenn close

Yeah, fiddle attraction Glenn close when they were in their 20s and guess what he actually got an answer

From a slightly tipsy Glenn close herself at a Christmas party, right? So you got to read all about it

Failure is not not an option is out now in hardcover and as an audiobook

You can get it wherever you get your books and you should get it
