Free Audiobook : Friends, Lovers and the Big Terrible Thing, By Matthew Perry

Matthew Perry, the guy we all know as Chandler Bing, invites you into his world with a voice that’s as familiar as an old friend. In Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing, he narrates his own story, blending that signature wit with a raw honesty that hits hard. From the dizzying heights of Friends fame to the shadows of addiction, Perry lays it all bare, starting with a chilling opener: “Hi, my name is Matty, and I should be dead.”

This isn’t just a celebrity tell-all. It’s a journey through a life shaped by a fractured childhood, a relentless drive for recognition, and a battle with demons that no amount of money or applause could silence. Perry shares glimpses of the Friends set, his relationships, and the moments that nearly broke him, all with a humor that somehow makes the heavy stuff feel lighter. His narration brings every word to life, like he’s sitting across from you, spilling his truth.

What makes this audiobook unforgettable is Perry’s refusal to sugarcoat anything. He’s not here to play the hero or the victim, just a guy trying to make sense of it all. Whether you’re a Friends fan or someone who’s faced their own struggles, his story feels like a hand reaching out, offering hope, laughter, and a reminder that even the darkest paths can lead somewhere brighter.
