Title: Medallion Status Pdf True Stories from Secret Rooms
An AV Club "Five Books to Read in October"
"[An] affecting and hilarious meditation on fame and prestige as seen through the lens of an airline loyalty program." (The AV Club)
A hilarious and honest new audiobook in which John Hodgman, New York Times best-selling author of Vacationland, leaves vacation behind and gets back to work as a still somewhat famous person...and then loses his job.
An uproarious listen perfect for stuffing stockings and white elephant gift parties.
After spending most of his 20s pursuing a career as a literary agent, John Hodgman decided to try his own hand at writing. Following an appearance to promote one of his books on The Daily Show, he was invited to return as a contributor. This led to an unexpected and, frankly, implausible career in front of the camera that has lasted to this very day, or at least until 2016.
In this audiobook, Hodgman explores the strangeness of his career, speaking plainly of fame, especially at the weird, marginal level he enjoyed it. Through these stories, you will learn many things that only John Hodgman knows, such as how to prepare for a nude scene with an oboe, or what it feels like to go to a Hollywood party and realize that you are not nearly as famous as the Property Brothers, or, for that matter, those two famous corgis from Instagram. And there are stories about how, when your television gig is canceled, you can console yourself with the fact that all of that travel that made your young son so sad at least left you with a prize: platinum medallion status with your airline.
Both unflinchingly funny and deeply heartfelt, Medallion Status is a thoughtful examination of status, fame, and identity - and about the way we all deal with those moments when we realize we aren't platinum status anymore and will have to get comfortable in that middle seat again.
Only Children of the World... This book is for you Firstly, I recommend potential 3S'li-m, Zaders read Hodgman's book Vacationland before this one, another excellent book.Secondly, if you think you'd enjoy a glimpse into the mind of strange only children as they become adults and then minor TV personalities, this book is for you!Quite frankly, I'm too young to remember John from TV and instead I am a religious podcast listener of his. He really has a wonderful way of writing that feels like a fun, casual party conversation. For a fun read to make you think about your life choices and make you laugh at the same time, check out Medallion Status.I only fly Beloved Airline Hilarious, great job as always. Could have done without the anti-trump stuff, as I was looking for a humorous escape from reality for a bit.I loved this book As a super-fan of Mr. Hodgman, my opinion cannot be trusted, I just really enjoyed this book. It was thoughtful, meaningful and just generally radiating in the kindness I have both seen in person at any type of live show he does and also in podcast form.
