Didn’t know much about this actor, just remembered him from Malcom in the Middle. I had heard rave reviews about Breaking Bad, but it seemed too heavy for me. Intrigued that Hal could become Walter, but I knew this guy was super talented from his Malcom days, and was happy his talent was being appreciated.

But I LOVED his memoir! What an interesting life! And he seems like such a decent human being, even after a sucky childhood.

Favorite parts: when he talks about his love for his family. Also, hearing how hard he worked, even as a kid, heartbreaking and admirable. This guy’s success is hard earned and well deserved. The descriptions of his motorcycle road trip with his brother and his time as a chaplain officiating at weddings - unforgettable.

Highly recommended on audio, read my the author.
