In 1993, George Carlin asked his friend and bestselling author Tony Hendra to help him write his autobiography, although Carlin preferred to call it a "sortabiography". The two of them had scores of conversations, many of which were recorded, for almost fifteen years. During the conversations, they discussed Carlin's life, times, and evolution as a major comedian artist. After Carlin died, Hendra set out to assemble the book just as Carlin would have wanted.^{[citation needed]}

This book was also released twice in Audiobook format. The first recording at unabridged length narrated by Johnny Heller and the second with George's brother Patrick reading an abridgment.
