MIKE EDISON podcast excerpt: "When my dad died, he was pretty abusive and a bully, to me. But when he died, I cried a lot. Of course I did, like any son would when their dad died. I had an odd sort of closure because his last words to me were, 'You are a complete disappointment.' And he was just getting started."

Key interview moments:

• 2:45 Mike Edison explains the title to his book, his finally "inspiration" from an abusive dad;

• 18:15 Memories of eating meatball pizza at the White Birch Inn in Metuchen, New Jersey;

• 35:30 Parents, you know those dirty books you think the kids don't know about on your nightstand? You're wrong. "I went on to become a pornographer!" Edison says. "I went to write Penthouse letters!"
