From the twisted and juvenile mind that brought you the national bestseller Anchorboy comes another rollicking collection of embarrassing stories that’ll make you laugh, cry, and feel just a little bit uncomfortable.
Get ready for more story time with everyone’s favourite Canadian sportscaster, Jay Onrait! Pull up a chair, open a bag of ketchup chips, and join Jay as he reminisces about the times he explored the squalid world of medical marijuana; made a mess of himself on the road to Pittsburgh; waited three hours to see 2 Live Crew in Edmonton; rode a Street Dragon through the laneways of Sochi; got bumped from live TV for Rob Ford; and shared a drink with Jay-Z . . . and was then asked to leave.
You’ll find all this and more of the same inside Number Two by Jay Onrait. READ IT!!!
As I go through these short memoirs chapters of Jay Onrait's life, I can't tell if he's a douchebag or just genuinely tells stories that are mildly insulting to those in them and just all around cocky. It's one thing to tell a story where you are recounting funny outlandish tales of the trip/day/weekend/event where you reveal your embarrassing moment or your private secrets but Jay Onrait does not conceal his feelings or distain for some of the people he shares the story. And the story is more revealing and insulting to others in the story than himself... The first story gives an example of the tone which seems like it's going to be a funny real but I found it all to fall flat.
