When listen to This American Life these days, I wonder if I was obsessed with the show because it’s good, or because every so often Sedaris’ voice would show up and leave me in tears (of joy, of sadness). I love Sedaris’ reading so much I want to take it behind the middle school and get it pregnant.David Sedaris reading his story You Can’t Kill The Rooster, in which my favorite phrase “fuck it bucket” originates.His stuff is meant to be heard, not read. It’s all about the timing, so much so that when I do read Sedaris, I hear his voice. It’s sometimes scary.
