Summary
The legendary comedian, actor, and Emmy-nominated SNL writer uses humour and stories from his life to offer a searing and hilarious commentary on American culture.
Description
A searing and hilarious commentary on woke culture in America from the legendary comedian, actor, and Emmy-nominated SNL writer.
Rob Schneider's childhood in the San Francisco Bay area with parents of mixed-race backgrounds shaped his view of the world: that America afforded the greatest opportunity for peoples from all nations and all faiths. Now, Rob keeps finding himself in controversy in Hollywood for expressing a few commonsense opinions about what woke ideology is doing to our great nation.With humor, Schneider takes on the current neoliberal authoritarians in America and argues we are living under a new kind of tyranny, with provocative commentary on the new threats to free speech, the fight for medical freedoms, climate change hysteria and, of course, Hunter Biden. As Rob says, "I am a traditional liberal which makes me a right-wing fascist now!"In this debut book, Rob also touches on his unique experience in show business and Saturday Night Live for the first time, like what he learned from Academy Award winning actors Christopher Walken and Martin Landau to the 27 films he made with Adam Sandler. He tells untold stories too, like seeing an eleven year old boy, Macauley Culken, be the bread winner for his large family and Sylvester Stallone calling him to hire him for a movie, saying, "Joe Pesci wants 5 million dollars. You're cheaper!"Rob Schneider refuses to be censored. This hilarious book is both for longtime fans of Schneider and readers looking for a true critique of woke culture before it destroys the America we love.Critic Reviews
"An entertaining romp, fun and educational. Rob provides the reader with an insightful survey of the precautionary historical antecedents that echo in our present moment. If you thought you knew Rob Schneider....well...behold."--DR. DREW PINSKY
"Rare you get to learn something interesting while laughing, this guy just might make it in comedy."--JIMMY DORE
"It used to be that all the funny comedians were on the left. Now they are the scolding nannies nursing official orthodoxies. All the hilarity is on the right where it is still permissible to mock hypocrisy. The best of these is Rob Schneider and this book is the best of Rob."--ROBERT F. KENNEDY JR
"Equal parts memoir, historical survey, and political polemic, all wrapped up in Schneider's trademark irreverent humor."--DAILY WIRE
"You Can Do It! draws from Schneider's experiences as a boundary-pushing comedian and actor to make the case that Americans shouldn't be afraid to speak their minds, especially when confronted by powerful woke entities which see free speech as a threat to their power and control."--FOX NEWS
"Essential reading for anyone struggling to understand the absurdity of this macro-moment in time, both emotionally and factually."--THE DAILY CALLER
"Provocative reading that will no doubt appeal to Schneider's fans."--KIRKUS REVIEWS
