When actor Leslie Jordan learned he had “gone viral,” he had no idea what that meant or how much his life was about to change.

Bursting with colour and life, dripping with his puckish Southern charm, How Y’all Doing? is Leslie doing what Leslie does best: telling stories that make us laugh and lift our spirits even in the darkest days. Whether he’s writing about his brush with a group of ruffians in a West Hollywood Starbucks, or an unexpected phone call from legendary Hollywood star Debbie Reynolds, Leslie infuses each story with his fresh and saucy humour and pure heart.

How Y’all Doing? is an authentic, warm, and joyful portrait of an American Sweetheart—a Southern Baptist celebutante, first-rate raconteur, and keen observer of the odd side of life whose quirky wit rivals the likes of Amy Sedaris, Jenny Lawson, David Rakoff, and Sarah Vowell.
