Two Henrys

This Can't Be Happening Collection

By: Kevin Allison

Narrated by: Kevin Allison

Coming out can be awkward enough. Now try it as a Catholic schoolboy in 1970s Ohio. In this fearless and funny true story, the host and founder of the hit podcast RISK! shares all.

From first grade through junior high, twelve-year-old Kevin and his best friend, Ben, were inseparable. But when Kevin divulged his biggest secret, Ben froze him out. The pint-size cold war lasted two years - until they went head-to-head for student council president. Team Ben’s smear campaign began. The school took sides. And Kevin decided to run with it.

Kevin Allison’s Two Henrys is part of This Can’t Be Happening, a collection of four true stories about making the best of a worst-case scenario curated by Kevin Allison, creator of the hit true storytelling podcast RISK! Outrageous, alarming, triumphant, and sometimes embarrassing, these fearless confessionals can be read, or listened to, in one what-on-earth-would-I-do? sitting.

Good book

A really good book me and my sister were listening to it on our free time.

Enjoyed the whole story - start to finish!

Difficult process to have gone through, and starting at such a very young age. Kevin told his story with just the right blends of truth, levity, empathy and warmth that I believe the struggles he faced during that period were evident. Also evident was the growth achieved from acceptance of self.

not a bad book

I like that the narrator was the same person that wrote the book. The story line of the book was great. However, I didnt get why the called themselves the two Henry's.

Funny!

This story was so hilarious. I loved listening to it! It talked about slightly more serious topics, but in a way that took the sting out of them and made then entertaining.

Delightful!

I didn’t know what to expect when I started this and I was pleasantly surprised to realize I loved it and I’m now a lifelong fan of this author! This story was beautiful, raw, funny, sad and felt very real. I highly recommend this!
