About this listen
If you’ve ever found yourself crouched on the floor outside your toddler’s room, holding your breath like a soldier defusing a bomb, Go the F**k to Sleep: Toddler Edition is your new favorite audiobook. This brutally honest and hilariously relatable bedtime book captures the nightly chaos, emotional meltdowns, and absurd negotiations every parent faces. From endless snack demands and existential toddler questions to the sheer terror of a creaky floorboard, each chapter dives deep into the bedtime trenches. It’s not just a book—it’s a lifeline for sleep-deprived parents searching for humor in the bedtime battlefield. With laugh-out-loud anecdotes, painfully real scenarios, and moments of surprising tenderness, this book speaks directly to anyone who’s ever whispered, “Please, for the love of all that is good, just close your eyes.”
But this isn’t just another parenting guide filled with hollow tips or vague advice. Go the F**k to Sleep: Toddler Edition doesn’t promise magical solutions or quick fixes. Instead, it delivers something far more valuable: solidarity. Whether you’re staring into the darkness answering deep toddler questions about why giraffes have long necks or debating the ethics of letting your child sleep with fourteen stuffed animals, this book assures you that you’re not alone. Every exhausted sigh, every eye-roll, every moment of bedtime despair is shared across households worldwide. This audiobook is like a knowing look from a fellow parent in the daycare drop-off line—the kind of look that says, “Yeah, we’ve been there too.”
Perfect for exhausted moms, sleep-deprived dads, caregivers, or anyone who has attempted the impossible task of reasoning with a pajama-clad dictator, Go the F**k to Sleep: Toddler Edition delivers comedy, honesty, and heart in every chapter.

Story
Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

In this award-winning Audible Studios production, Trevor Noah tells his wild coming-of-age tale during the twilight of apartheid in South Africa.

Story
Traumatized by the bombing of Dresden at the time he had been imprisoned, Pilgrim drifts through all events and history, sometimes deeply implicated, sometimes a witness. He is surrounded by Vonnegut's usual large cast of continuing characters (notably here the hack science fiction writer Kilgore Trout and the alien Tralfamadorians, who oversee his life and remind him constantly that there is no causation, no order, no motive to existence).

Story
Separated by 10 years, 3,000 miles, and the unrelenting stresses of adulthood, best friends Janet and Serena plan a 40th birthday girls’ trip to reconnect. But after a massive crash, they’re the only survivors to wash ashore on an uncharted Caribbean Island. Armed with only the clothes on their backs and zero survival skills, they fight to overcome hunger, thirst, deadly wildlife—and most terrifyingly—decades of accrued resentment. Can they find their way home, or will they kill each other first?

Story
A bad best man’s speech can ruin a wedding. Why do we plan every detail of a perfect day and then give the groom’s idiot best friend five minutes of total power? Enter Nate (Glen Powell), a speechwriter-for-hire who helps people write incredible best man speeches. To keep the best man from embarrassing himself (and the newlyweds), Nate uses his list of don’ts: Don’t mention the exes, don’t be rated R, and don’t bum everyone out. Nate’s system never fails. That is, until he meets Dan (Nicholas Braun).

Story
Hilarious, fascinating, and a roller coaster of dizzying, historical what-ifs, Napoleon's Hemorrhoids is a potpourri for serious historians and casual history buffs. In one of Phil Mason's many revelations, you'll learn that Communist jets were two minutes away from opening fire on American planes during the Cuban missile crisis, when they had to turn back as they were running out of fuel. You'll discover that before the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon's painful hemorrhoids prevented him from mounting his horse to survey the battlefield.
