A hilarious testament to the power of humor and family, and to the special nature of father-son relationships, from beloved TV hosts, authors, and real-life father and son Willie and Bill Geist.

Told in a unique back-and-forth banter style, the hilarious father-son team riffs on fatherhood, religion, music, sports, summer camp disasters, driving lessons gone horribly wrong, being on TV, and their wonderfully odd family life. ThinkBig Russ and MemeetsS*** 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.Good Talk, Dadis 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.

Geist has won numerous Emmys and in 2011 was awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for the hundreds of singular, informative, entertaining pieces he has done since joining CBS in 1987.
