TERRY GROSS, HOST: This is FRESH AIR. I m Terry Gross. My guest, Seth Rogen, has written a new book called Yearbook that was described in The Washington Post Review as, quote, a candid collection of sidesplitting essays, unquote. He writes about how he started to do stand-up when he was 12 - 12 - and why it was at a lesbian bar; his adolescent insecurities about girls and not having a girlfriend; his mild case of Tourette s syndrome - his father s Tourette s is more pronounced; how his father became the sperm donor for a lesbian couple, making Seth Rogen the half-brother of their two children; his use of weed, mushrooms and LSD; how he started acting and making movies; and the threats made by North Korea because of his film comedy, The Interview, in which Kim Jong Un is assassinated.
Long Shot. In his new memoir,
Yearbook, Rogen shares funny stories of his early years and his more recent life.
Interview Highlights
On struggling with school as a kid I would say I had a casual relationship with attending high school in general. - Seth Rogen
I did very bad in school, always. My teachers did not like me. I always was getting kicked out of class in elementary school. I would just get kicked out of class all the time which is a funny thing when you think about it. That s how they would just deal with me: It was just like, go stand in the hall alone.

And very quickly I was like, this is not going to be my path to success in life. I would say I had a casual relationship with attending high school in general.

James of sexual misconduct.
Seth‘s decision to side with
James “caused denial, loss of reality, loss of intuition to protect self from future abusers, life-long health issues, [and/or] attempt in suicide” for the accusers.
Charlyne also added a checklist for
Seth to go through, and one of the points was to “apologize to survivors for making their lives even more vulnerable by publicly siding with an abuser, further damaging their careers and safety” and to “commit to educating self about coercion, sexual assault, and how to be a protective ally; promote protecting and hiring survivors.”

The Pineapple Express actor made a bid to speak to the Lemonade singer at the Grammy Awards, at which he was presenting a prize, but as he charged across to the 39-year-old pop star, her minder blocked his path, causing him to spill a cocktail all down himself.
