John Hodgman's book "More Information Then Required" was recently released, it was a hilarious book to read, but I found it a little tough to get through.

Narrated by John Hodgman, Dick Cavett, Jonathan Coulton, Zach Galifianakis, Ricky Gervais, Ira Glass, Robin Goldwasser, Rachel Maddow

If that wasn't an auto-sell, this was how the book was meant to be enjoyed, John Hodgman and other funny people reading it TO you.

It also has some pretty great parts that weren't in the book, Paul Rudd begins reading the book, until John Hodgman and Jonathan Coulton enter, argue with him a bit and take over.

Oh god, I've been waiting for it to come out in audiobook ever since I finished the first one, "The Areas of My Expertise." Jonathan Coulton singing little songs about the 51 states was amazing, though the hobo names were drawn out a little long. Can't wait to see how this one shapes up!

I haven't even thought of checking for his other books, I must go do this.

I'm half way through it (listening at work) and there have been a couple times I laughed out loud. "For this next part, wake your children up. Its important. I'll wait...... hello children. Stop fidgeting."

Jonathan Coulton also sings little ditties throughout.
