I don't think he is an idiot actually, I think he's a pretty bright feller. I used to really enjoy his Saturday morning show on GLR, before money and fame turned him into a bighead - it was great. It had a sort of Viz-like crackle and pop about it - you could tel that everyone there was really enjoying themselves. Don't know about the book, though I did read about it somewhere, and they said he's very honest about what a pratt he became. I bet you it would actually be quite a fun read.
