Humblebrag: The Art of False Modesty Audiobook (Free)

From comedian and writer (Parks and Recreation, Eastbound & Down) Harris Wittels comes a hysterical break down of boasts, brags, and self-adulation disguised as humble comments and complaints-based on his popular @humblebrag Twitter give food to.
