I had this as a car read, so the reading happened over the course of maybe a year. That's alright though since it's fine (and probably preferable) to savor in small portions. I think some of the stories should really be heard by everyone. A few brought a tear to the eye, a few were very much "what the ...." moments. The collection is excellent and my favorite story was probably by Darryl McDaniels - D.M.C. of Run-D.M.C.
