About this listen
Good sense, good jokes, and good WIL — a book about enduring turbulent times with humor, community and just a dash of Apple Cider Vinegar.
'How are you?' How am I? How am I? How do you think I am? I know in the Before Times the tradition was to reply, 'I'm fine, thanks.' Then you would ask how they were, and they would reply, 'I'm fine, thanks.' And then we would all get on with our lives. But I can't play my part in that pantomime anymore. I cannot say, 'I am fine, thanks,' because (spoilers) I am not fine, thanks.
What do you get when a housebound comedian is left with no option but to make comedy using only a rampant washing machine, a lot of Vaseline (it's for the pipes — no, not that pipe), a roast chook and an unused exercise bike to keep him company? You get I Am NOT Fine, Thanks.
From prime ministers who don't hold a hose, to billionaires who think they're astronauts, to people who think lizards are ruling the country and that thermometers are wiping your memory, it's abundantly clear that the world is going to hell.
In I Am NOT Fine, Thanks Wil Anderson uses his iconic dry humor to soothe the sting of the last few years — laughter is the best medicine, after all (or is it Apple Cider Vinegar?). Part memoir, part manifesto and all comedy, this is a book that will both make your every frustration feel heard and show you that there is plenty to hope for.
‘This book is a welcome icepack after being repeatedly hit on the head by the world.' SHAUN MICALLEF

Just when you thought Wil Anderson was too ubiquitous he pulls this excellent book from I don’t know where!!
This is actually a great book reflecting on Covid, bushfires, floods and some great jokes. Just when you thought he was passé he goes out and kicks goals!

Nostalgic, hilarious and right on the money
Thankyou Wil for this incredible podcast.
As someone with a pretty short attention and regularly distracted by shiny things, this held my attention throughout. I must’ve looked like the Swedish chef from the muppets muttering to myself, headphones on and regularly LOL’ing. As a daily listener of your JJJ breakfast show with Adam i was heartbroken when you guys finished up. Keep on spreading the work and getting behind our young people. They certainly need it.

It’s Fine
Love Wil, longtime fan, but I would loved to have known more about his journey into comedy. I’m a bit over pandemic/vaccine stuff. Entertaining still the same!

Brilliant. Funny. Heartbreaking.
If you’re a Wil Anderson fan, you should listen to this book. If you’re not a Wil Anderson fan, you should listen to this book. It will make you laugh, it will make you question a lot of things in life, it will make you angry, and it will make you appreciate the power of good comedy.

A review people will not read
Having just finished listening to Wil, in which I learned no one reads a review! I needed to say how thought provoking, hilarious and generally wonderful an experience this was. Laughed a lot, nearly cried a little and entertained immensely! Thoroughly recommend this book!

Enjoyable musings about a tough time
If you like Anderson’s other work you will really enjoy this book. He also does a great job in his narration.
