    Welcome to my Audio Adventure where I get to be an actor, a playwright, a songwriter, and a storyteller. In this opening episode, I play all five parts in a scene from my hit comedy Escabana In Da Moonlight, perform my song “God’s Little Joke,” and take you behind the scenes into my final performance as Atticus Finch in the Broadway production of To Kill A Mockingbird.

    In town for the Toronto Film Festival, a wayward pedestrian screamed at me, which inspired my song “Have a Good Life then Die.” In a speech that will outlive me, I take you on the set of The Newsroom on the day Will McAvoy answered the question “What makes America the greatest country in the world?” “Now You Know You Can” is the song about what that day meant to me.

Warm Wit

Such an affirming ,heartfelt, funny writer and musician. I’ve always enjoyed Jeff Daniel’s acting. But this a whole new(for me) experience of his incredible talent. A delightful listen.

Jeff Daniels: one of our all-time greats!!!!!!

I signed back up for Audible just for this and it is well worth it! During the last episode, Mr. Daniels said this is the end of season one. PLEASE tell us there is a season two coming!!! I could listen to this man tell stories all day, and in fact,that’s exactly what I’ve done this weekend. Ready for more!!

Outstanding!

A heartfelt memoir that I didn't want to end. The writing is outstanding and I'm sure Aaron Sorkin enjoyed it as much as I did! Was sad it was done. Loved the music and the lyrics were perfect. Thanks for sharing.
