Nobody Eats Parsley: And other things I learned from my family

In this episode 174, we visit with David Oakley, author of Nobody Eats Parsley: And other things I learned from my family.

Dave’s book ushers us front and center to the inner circus of his family life with stories so ridiculous you might think they‘re fiction. Like the time David went to an X-rated drive-in without realizing his parents were in the next car, or the time he let his kid throw a rock through their living room window, or the time he bought a camouflage thong in a bait shop and the time he ruined a kid‘s birthday party and the other time he ruined a kid‘s birthday party.

Tracy Lee Curtis, Humorist and Author of Trophy Mom says she “wouldn’t last a week in David Oakley’s wacky family,  but I would pay money to attend their reunion!” Each chapter is filled with humorous events from Dave‘s world and he’s gotten some great praise from the book from his family, like the blurb from his mother who says the book “helps me fall asleep at night” and the one by his wife who says David really makes her laugh, “especially in bed.”
