PERTAINING to some friendly malcontentism in the comments below Cory Doctorow’s BOING BOING POST about to the release of the PAPERBACK EDITION and BOXED SET of THAT IS ALL, 

I am pleased to ANNOUNCE AND REMIND that: 

The long-awaited AUDIOBACK edition of THAT IS ALL shall ALSO be released on October 2, 2012. 

IT WILL BE AVAILABLE AS A DOWNLOAD ONLY, because honestly, it’s time. You don’t need those golden coasters anymore. It will be on Audible and iTunes, etc., but it is not listed yet. 

IT IS ABOUT ELEVEN HOURS LONG, and like my previous audiobooks, features a variety of guests, skits, songs, and other techniques deployed to liven up what is, essentially, a book of lists of fake facts, mayonnaise trivia, RAGNAROK survival techniques, and the 700 names of the ANCIENT AND UNSPEAKABLE GODS who will come to reclaim the earth on December 21, 2012. 

THESE GUEST INCLUDE, but are not limited to: 

Jonathan COULTON

John RODERICK

Paul RUDD

Dick CAVETT

Rachel MADDOW

Jon HAMM

Patton OSWALT

Brooke SHIELDS

plus an original new hour-long song by: John DARNIELLE

a new-time old-timey radio show from Paul F TOMPKINS

and a transcontinental visit from: Stephen FRY

AND MORE.
