# Good Talk, Dad: The Birds and the Bees...and Other Conversations We Forgot to Have - Hardcover

by **Bill Geist** (Author), **Willie Geist** (Author)

Bill Geist--the beloved, award-winning, long-time special correspondent for "CBS: Sunday Morning," whose debut _Little League Confidential_ was a _New York Times_ bestseller in hardcover and paper--and Willie Geist, the Today Show host, popular member of MSNBC's "Morning Joe," and author of the best-selling _American Freak Show_\--have begun an extended conversation between father and son on areas of mutual interest, agreement, and disagreement.

Told in a unique back-and-forth banter style, the hilarious father-son team will laugh together at the shared journey of their relationship. They'll riff on fatherhood, religion, music, sports, summer camp disasters, driving lessons gone horribly wrong, being on TV, and their wonderfully odd family life. Think _Big Russ and Me_ meets _S\*\*\* My Dad Says_, with humorous observations about professional wrestling as a worldview, raising a kid with television cameras in the kitchen, and anything and everything else that comes to their witty minds.

The Geists decided to write this book so their children and grandchildren would have a record of their unusual father-son relationship. The book is remarkably funny, as well as poignant and sincere, especially in light of Bill's announcement that he's been diagnosed with Parkinson's. With its lighthearted look at the crazy things fathers and sons go through and the unique bond those experiences forge, the book is sure to be a must-have gift for Father's Day.
