About this audiobook

Outsider. Misfit. Criminal. Convict. Movie star. Family man. Comedy legend.

Joey Diaz has been called every name in the book (and then some). Now, for the first time, he shares the story of his unlikely rise to fame in his own wordsā€”with no punches pulled.

Today, he stars in hit films, headlines sold-out tours, hosts the popular Uncle Joeyā€™s Joint podcast, and is a devoted fatherā€”but his life wasnā€™t always so pictureperfect.

Tremendous is the story of Diazā€™s life, from grueling childhood and misspent youth to finding his true calling in comedy. Immigrants, fans of celebrity tales, and comedy enthusiasts alike will be enthralled by this incredibly true, foul-mouthed, and funny memoir.

Itā€™s not a story for the faint of heart, or for prudes whoā€™ve never spent a week sleeping on a piece of playground equipment. Diaz shares it all with brutal honesty and humor, in the same inimitable voice heā€™d use talking to you from the stage or in a bar.

An inspiration for misfits everywhere, Tremendous is storytelling at its finestā€”and a reminder that the direst of circumstances can change in unimaginable, unpredictable ways.

amazing book of Joey's life story. I have been supporting Joey since I heard the church and man he's has honestly been a driving force in my life whenever I'm down or going through tough times I always find myself coming back to this book or old and new episodes of the church or the joint. Joey has such a impact it's incredible. great listen/read highly recommend buying this book 10/10!
