Television personality John Hodgman presents a tongue-in-cheek compendium of half-truths and fake trivia including a page-a-day calendar of made-up facts that did not happen on particular dates, and a live performance of 700 mole-man names, which explores the identities and culture of the mole-men, a race of humanoids that supposedly live in a complex warren of tunnels and vast caverns beneath the earth.

Funny submitted by Chris82 on July 30, 2011, 9:47pm This is a great and very funny book. The audiobook may even be better than the actual book because of the famous actors and actresses involved in the reading. They even perform a reading of 700 names in front of an audience which was hilarious.
So good submitted by lfmarcus on August 25, 2019, 12:03pm This is still one of my favorites of his; I love what the audio brings to the book!
