Playing with Myself by Randy Rainbow (Author, Narrator),
This program is read by the author with a special appearance from his mom. An intimate and light-hearted memoir by viral sensation and three-time Emmy-nominated musical comedian Randy Rainbow that takes listeners through his life—the highs, the lows, the lipstick, the pink glasses, and the show tunes Randy Rainbow, the man who conquered the internet with a stylish pair of pink glasses, an inexhaustible knowledge of Broadway musicals, and the most gimlet-eyed view of American politics this side of Mark Twain finally tells all in Playing with Myself , a memoir sure to cause more than a few listeners to begin singing one of his greatest hits like “A Spoonful of Clorox” or “Cover Your Freakin’ Face”. As Randy has said, “There’s so much fake news out there about me. I can’t wait to set the record straight and finally give people a peek behind the green screen.” And set the record straight he does. Playing with Myself is a firsthand account of the journey that led Randy Rainbow from his childhood as the over-imaginative, often misunderstood little boy who carried a purse in the second grade to his first job on Broadway as the host at Hooters and on to the creation of his trademark comedy character. In chapters titled “Pajama Bottoms” (a look back at the days when he wore pajama bottoms on his head to pretend he was Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz ), “Yes, It’s My Real Name, Shut Up!” (no explanation necessary...) and “Pink Glasses” (a rose-colored homage to his favorite accessory), Playing with Myself is a memoir that answers the question “Can an introverted musical theatre nerd with a MacBook and a dream save the world, one show tune at a time?” A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin's Press.

I could not put this book down. Randy's writing flows like a Nora Ephron story. Ok, there's no romantic happy ending - yet - but it’s full of humor and heart, with plenty of heartbreak and joy to balance things out. I’ve been a fan for some time - his humor has seen me through some rough years - and now I understand better why he's so good at making lemonade out of lemons. He seems to have been literally born to bring joy and humor. Also, we get a glimpse of Randy’s mom's life. She did a stellar job of raising a queer child, under really challenging circumstances. I take my hat off to her. The audiobook had the added benefit of being read by Randy himself, making the story all the more personal.
