God is doing the rounds to promote his new book, The Last Testament: A Memoir co-authored with David Javerbaum (former head writer and exec producer of “The Daily Show with Jon Stewart”) God’s co-author David Javerbaum will be at 92YTribeca on November 17 to discuss this new “telleth-all” tome with This American Life’s Ira Glass.
