One Last Question Before You Go

How well do you know your parents? Really.

Kyle Thiermann's dad once bought a hot-air balloon off a hitchhiker. His mom and stepdad are trying to spread a conspiracy theory. Now, with his first book, Kyle wanders the American West-through rich redwood forests, seedy surf culture, and a 1997 RV with teal carpet interior-to probe how asking the right questions can change a relationship.

Blending witty narrative with practical advice and twenty-seven bold questions, the popular podcast host and pro big wave surfer shows that interviewing our parents can create way more than digital family heirlooms. It can reframe the way we see each other.

One Last Question Before You Go is part story, part strategy-and entirely unexpected.
