Status Updates From Downward Facing Doug

Great performance by Ed Harris on these Don Winslow Audible Originals. This story works on every level, managing a truly satisfying ending where the downtrodden hero gets what's coming to him.

Boone thinks: Hell, Doug can’t watch his front!

Dave the Love God is Dave the Lifeguard by day. He’s known as a player, usually going after tourists. It’s said he has made more visitors happy than Sea World.
