About this audiobook

In this New York Times bestseller, host of one of the nation’s top morning shows Elvis Duran shares his wildest stories and hardest-learned lessons with his trademark honesty and “bighearted, deliciously warm” (Barbara Corcoran, star of ABC’s Shark Tank) humor.

Elvis Duran’s nationally syndicated radio program, Elvis Duran and the Morning Show, is America’s most-listened-to Top 40 morning show and one of the 10 most-listened-to programs in all of radio, heard live by nearly ten million people every morning.

But his success didn’t happen overnight. Elvis spent years navigating the wild world of radio as a DJ for hire, working (and partying) in markets around the country before taking over the morning shift at the legendary Z100 in 1996. Over the last twenty years, he has become one of New York City’s signature voices (Variety calls him “a permanent fixture of the area’s daily commutes”) thanks to his show’s exciting mix of music, new artist discovery, interviews, gossip, and live listener interaction.

Along the way, Elvis has become known not just for his incisive interviews (and occasional feuds) with pop music’s biggest stars, but for the show’s commitment to kindness and positivity and Elvis’s own candor and openness with his audience.

Bold, funny, and totally candid, Where Do I Begin? is sure to be loved by anyone who listens to Elvis live every morning—or anyone who wants to know what really goes on behind the scenes of the pop music machine from the “man who has been as big a part of the industry’s success as anyone” (Ryan Seacrest).

Ratings and reviews

Seriously where do I begin. I'm love this book it is a must read for any fan of elvis Duran and the morning show. I glad he narrated the story I would have hated if anybody else did it you can feel the emotion when he read of his experiences. I will always be a fan of the show but after reading this book I feel more connected to Elvis Duran and understand some of the hardships he has faced. This book is one of the best thing I have read.

Absolutely loved this. Feel like I just met you and had a wonderful conversation for the first time. Listened to your show for years but this was definately moving and entertaining as well as inspirational. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

Amazing, loved every second I spent listening to elvis tell me his story, I laughed, I learned and I enjoyed everything about it. I can't wait for the next one. I've been listening to elvis for years but after this book I feel like I personally know him...
