my first book is called Raw Dog: The Naked Truth About Hot Dogs!!! 🌭 it’s history and it’s memoir and it’s class analysis and it’s my heart and it’s ON SALE NOW with a macmillan fuckin imprint 🌭 it feels very silly to say that writing something like this is a dream come true but it’s true — getting the chance to take a close look at something that feels innocuous but has a visceral meaning is what i really love doing, and the tor publishing team empowered me every step of the way to make it funny and disgusting and needlessly thorough every step of the way 🌭 so yes, all this hot dog bullshit has been for a reason, and if you’re a fan of any of my work in comedy or podcasts i really think you’ll like it 🌭 yes, hot dogs essentially demolished my life and relationship and yes, they helped rebuild me as a person i am working on liking much better 🌭 it’s available for preorder now and i HIGHLY encourage you to use @bookshop_org, who will auto direct you to buy from a local indie bookstore near you! 🌭 in all seriousness, raw dog is very goofy on its face but it’s a culmination of so many through lines that mean something to me, including: something disgusting, class division, joey chestnut, the CIA, eating disorders, getting horny at disneyland, navigating ptsd, women who turned ptsd into hot dog businesses, people who are weird about ketchup, and symbols of capitalism that you can’t quite understand how they got there 🌭 no, im not sick of them and you can buy me one later 🌭 ill be touring when the book comes out, but if you’re able to order early my editor bravely informed me that presales are really important 🌭 some of my favorite recent hot dogs are attached 🌭 cover design by jamie stafford-hill but the hardcover edition is so cool that there’s literally a SECOND COVER by @fayeorlove so order it now ok have a great day 🌭
