Rooster Teeth teamed up with Extra Life, a gaming fundraising platform, to benefit the Children's Miracle Network Hospital. The live-stream participants sitting cross-legged look like a group of giggly little kids. (There's even a dog!)

The drive surpassed expectations, raising almost half a million dollars:

Samuel L. Jackson has also narrated the book, and you can find his version over at Audible.

Its equally bleepy sequel, You Have to Fucking Eat, is slated for a November release this year and is available at Akashic Books or Amazon.
