About this audiobook
Penguin presents the unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of We Need to Talk About... Kevin Bridges.
Aged 17, Kevin Bridges walked on stage for the first time and brought the house down. He only had a five-minute set but he discovered he really could earn a living from making people laugh.
Kevin began life as a shy, nerve-ridden school-boy. Reaching his teens, he followed his true calling as the class clown. This was a guy going somewhere - off the rails seeming most likely.
Kevin's trademark social commentary, sharp one-liners and laugh-out-loud humour blend with his reflections on his Glaswegian childhood and the journey he's taken to become one of the most-loved comedians of our time.

Such an honest description of Kevin's life. I remember his first TV show and hoped he would do well. Such a great talent up there with the best.

Absolutely superb audiobook written and narrated by Kevin Bridges. He seems like a really genuine lad with a great story to tell and he tells it well. I laughed out loud loads of times and the chapter when his dad goes to his first gig I cried like a baby. Most audiobooks I listen to once and they go back into the library to gather virtual dust but not this one. Definitely deserves a second listen. If you're a fan of Kevin or comedy then it's a must. Five stars

A class story of how a shy young guy fights his way to become a top entertainer. I love Kevin's work and just can't hear enough of it. The long hard road to Stardom has paid off and I look forward to loads more of his hard work.

About the author
Kevin Bridges, Scotland's 'young comedy prodigy' (Guardian), has followed a meteoric path, from his first five-minute set in The Stand comedy club in Glasgow to selling out the SECC to a record-breaking 100,000 fans. He was born in Clydebank, and still lives in Glasgow. Now, at the tender age of just twenty-seven, Kevin puts pen to paper to tell his story so far in his brilliant memoir, We Need to Talk About . . . Kevin Bridges.
