In Gad We Trust

In Gad We Trust is a heartfelt and hilarious collection of essays, pairing scenes from Josh’s life and career in the entertainment industry with “pontifications” on evergreen yet topical issues (putting his master’s degree from his The Daily Show days to good use), delivering a wholly original take on the genre of the comedic essay.

For the first time, Josh dives into a wide array of personal topics: the lasting impact of his parents' divorce; how he struggled with weight and self-image; how Robin Williams mentored him early in his career; his perspective on fatherhood; his first big break; how everyone was sure his most successful ventures (both on the big screen and the stage) would bomb; and so much more. Perhaps most importantly, this trip down the rabbit hole of overly personal stories will distract readers from climate change and the downward descent of democracy in Western civilization—with never-before-seen photos and few-to-no spelling errors.

Whether you know him from Disney or Broadway, YouTube or the silver screen, one fact remains: Josh's work never fails to bring people together. His delightful debut, written in the tradition of Amy Poehler, Jim Gaffigan, and Mindy Kaling, is sure to charm skeptics and fans alike, and reminds us to keep going, even when everyone thinks you're going to bomb.
