About This Audiobook

Matt Smith’s *Dear Bob and Sue: Season 3* is a travelogue that thrives on the absurdity of the open road, where the destination is less important than the detours—and the detours, by Smith’s account, are a masterclass in how not to plan a vacation. This time, he and his wife cram into an RV that feels less like a home on wheels and more like a rolling petri dish of questionable choices, from a run-in with a particularly aggressive squirrel to a campsite where the Wi-Fi password is just “yes.” The humor is sharp, the stakes are low, and the charm is high, making it impossible not to laugh along as they navigate the pitfalls of small-town America with the enthusiasm of disaster tourists.

What sets this audiobook apart is its refusal to be a polished travel guide. There’s no pretense of wisdom here—just the raw, unfiltered joy of discovery, even when discovery means eating gas station sushi or getting lost in a maze of cornfields. Smith’s writing is conversational, like eavesdropping on a couple recounting their weekend with increasing disbelief, and the narration by David Colacci and Susan Ericksen elevates it further. Their dynamic is pitch-perfect, with Colacci’s dry wit and Ericksen’s bemused reactions turning even the most mundane mishaps into comedic gold.

Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

I started listening to *Dear Bob and Sue: Season 3* while stuck in traffic on a Friday afternoon, and two hours later, I’d forgotten I was even in a car. That’s the magic of Matt Smith’s writing—and the narration duo of David Colacci and Susan Ericksen, whose chemistry sells every cringe and triumph as if it’s happening in real time. Colacci, with his measured cadence and deadpan delivery, is the ideal guide for this tour of small-town America’s weirdest corners, while Ericksen’s reactions—whether exasperated or delighted—add a layer of authenticity that makes the misadventures feel intimate. The pacing is relentless, in the best way: Smith’s humor is rapid-fire, but never rushed, and the production quality ensures the jokes land without echo or distortion. My only critiques? A few chapters drag slightly when the duo lingers on a particularly unremarkable stop (do we really need five minutes on a rest-area vending machine?), and the ending wraps up a bit too neatly after a string of chaotic set pieces. Still, these are minor quibbles in a listening experience that feels like hanging out with friends who tell the best stories—messy, hilarious, and unforgettable.
