About this listen
Attempted murder victim told the Brainerd Dispatch she believes her sixteen-year-old son saved her.
This is the news article detailing the event that would drastically change Tyler Zed's life and that of his family forever.
Growing up in a small town in Minnesota, Tyler and his two brothers filled their days with chaotic fun, from playing hockey to building forts to making their own home movies. The household was also full of addiction and abuse that ultimately led to their father attempting to murder their mother on Christmas Eve 2007.
Trailer Park Parable follows Tyler and his family before Christmas Eve 2007, the events leading to that night, and the years afterward. It trails the boys as they deal with varying degrees of PTSD and their own battles with addiction, before they eventually turned their creative coping mechanisms, like their YouTube channels, into million-subscriber successes.
From living in a trailer park to running a multi-million-dollar business, Trailer Park Parable highlights a true, American-dream story, countering a popular narrative that tells us you may as well not even try, the system is rigged against you.

I listened to the whole thing in one sitting.
We are in the UK and love watching your YouTube videos (And yours Deev), we have ordered your book my wife will read that and I have the audio book as I have poor eyesight (still don't miss some of the stuff you do in your videos though). I had a long train journey and listened to this in one sitting, it was a pleasure to listen to and to hear your back story. When will you be releasing something else?

outstanding
i was mostly amazed at how desmond, or Tyler as we know him, manager to open up about his past. i am truly appreciative for it and i gained a level of respect for how he dealt with it in the end.
i'm still not doing the "you laugh you lose" punishments though.

Compelling
After watching Zeducation for a few years now, I was interested to meet the man behind Tyler Zed, it did not disappoint. He is living proof that you can have a tough childhood but end up incredibly successful later in life with true grit and determination. The last little chapter made me shed a tear.

From a troubled upbringing to self made podcaster.
Written by YouTube content creator Tyler Zed, this book was a deep insight to the life and childhood struggles that shaped his life.

Keeps you enthralled
This was a good listen. The story was well paced, delivered in a way which keeps you wanting to know more.
It is easy to emphasised with the protagonist and it keeps you rooting for him and his family. Definitely would recommend, you won't be disappointed.
