Jason Byrne is 17. He has his Leaving Cert under his belt but no idea what to do next. Who better to ask for advice than his dad, Paddy Byrne? There's a (very) short stint studying accountancy (he was asked to leave); a FÁS course with juvenile prisoners to become a waiter (his wonky eye was not an advantage); and a job in a lighting warehouse (it ended with a collapsed lung). But no matter the problem, Paddy is always there with a whiskey, a smoke and a wise word: 'Sure, that's life, son. Just don't tell your mother.' Follow Jason's hilarious journey to becoming one of Ireland's best-loved comedians in a laugh-out loud book that is a celebration of a generation, of life and of Jason's wonderful relationship with his dad, Paddy Byrne - the man who never gave a b*llix.

Jason Byrne is one of Ireland's best-loved comedians. He is consistently the biggest-selling act at the Edinburgh Fringe, and sells out venues across America, Australia, the Middle East, Europe and Asia. He has many television credits to his name, including Ireland's Got Talent and Last One Laughing Ireland.
