Desus & Mero are smarter and funnier than everyone writing books.
--Shea Serrano I will never write anything as hilarious as they have.
I give up.
--Malcolm Gladwell These motherf***ers make me laugh until I choke.
--Jia Tolentino A wild, hilarious guide to life from the hosts of the hit late-night show Desus & Mero and the Bodega Boys podcast Who could have predicted that, after a fateful meeting in a Bronx summer school in the 1990s, Desus & Mero would turn their friendship into an empire of talking to each other.
And it's no surprise--tuning in to them is like listening to the funniest, smartest people you know dissect a topic and then light it on fire.
Now they've written the most essential guide to life of this century*, in which all the important questions are asked: How do I talk to my kids about drugs if I do them, too? What are the ethics of ghosting in a relationship? How do I bet on sports? How should I behave in jail? How much is too much to spend on sneakers? Is porn really that bad for me? As they put it: We want to share all we've learned, after years in the Bronx streets, with you: the people.
So with a lifetime spent building up a plethora of information from trials and tribulations and a handful of misdemeanors, we decided to write this book--a sequel to the Bible, or maybe to The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, depending on how big a nerd you are.
Let this book be your North Star.
