The project condenses a year’s worth of conversations between Martin, 77, and his friend of more than three decades, New Yorker writer Adam Gopnik. In the audiobook, according to Pushkin, Martin is “more candid than he’s ever been” about his many lives — as a comedian, actor, writer, musician, magician, art collector and more. Over several sessions, all recorded in Martin’s Upper West Side apartment, “So Many Steves” features commentary about Martin’s creative pursuits along with never-before-shared anecdotes from life on set. In their conversations, Martin reflects on his career, from his early days working as a magician to his rise to Hollywood stardom, and what inspires him to keep challenging himself as an artist. Martin, with banjo in hand, scores the audiobook himself.

Hubman, an attorney for Woods — and his Jupiter Island Irrevocable Homestead Trust — which were filed on Monday and obtained by ET, Woods' legal counsel claims that Herman is «not a victim of sexual assault or abuse.»The documents allege that Herman is «a jilted ex-girlfriend who wants to publicly litigate specious claims in court, rather than honor her commitment to arbitrate disputes in a confidential arbitration proceeding.»In the documents she filed last week, Herman checked the box «yes» when asked, «Does this case involve allegations of sexual abuse?» While she did not offer any specifics about the allegations, Herman says nullifying the NDA will clear things up for her.Herman also filed a lawsuit last October against Wood's Jupiter Island Irrevocable Homestead Trust claiming that the golfer violated an «oral tenancy agreement,» ensuring her she could live at his Florida mansion for a total of 11 years.
