Before Stan, there was Randy. And Randy's coming out of the vault.
Randy! is a self-published memoir of a Maryland thirty-something jerk found by author Mike Sacks at a garage sale and re-published here for you. The audio was captured by the struggling poet and novelist Noah B., who is embedded in the mind and lifestyle of a perversely unexceptional American asshole named Randy.
Like Pale Fire if it were about a Danny McBride-style fuck-up, the story is both unmoored from time and eerily prescient of our own—one so stupid and unbelievable that it requires a writer like Mike Sacks to bring it to light.
Starting April 16 on the StanLand feed.
You can binge all 11 CD's when you Enter StanLand on Apple Podcasts.

"Randy is a hilariously, unexpectedly poignant and eminently worthy addition to Sacks’ sociological/anthropological exploration of the American Jackass and his curious ways. Audacious and inspired."
Nathan Rabin, Nathan Rabin’s Happy Place
"The year’s best memoir is about a man who shot a porno in a Baskin-Robbins."
Vice
"Randy does more to explain certain unexpected turns in this nation’s political fate over the last couple of years than a bazillion think-pieces in the Times, Atlantic, New Yorker, MSNBC."
John Colapinto, The New Yorker
