“Kenan is a master storyteller with extraordinary stories to tell. I wouldn’t miss this for the world.”—Leslie Jones
When I Was Your Age is a hilarious, heartwarming and surprising ode to growing up, getting older and wiser, and luck, life, and learning from the school of hard knocks, from SNL's longest-serving actor, Kenan Thompson
Kenan Thompson is Saturday Night Live’s longest-ever-serving cast member and a star of such pioneering sketches as “Black Jeopardy” and is hugely beloved thanks to a tidal wave of nostalgic fans who grew up on early 2000s classics All That, Good Burger, and Kenan & Kel on Nickelodeon.
He’s also a dad (to two girls) in his mid-40s living in suburbia, and whose universal, relatable, family-friendly humor has created unbelievable appeal and engagement from fans from middle America to coastal elites. Becoming a dad sucked the cool right out of him -- and he's OK with that!
When I Was Your Age is packed with hilarious yet poignant essays that are aimed to offer any reader valuable advice on parenting, focusing on positivity, and having fun in life. Kids, new parents, fellow fathers, budding comics, and aunties who want to pinch his cheeks, can all learn from his biggest mistakes and most triumphant victories. There’s something for everybody here!
What does it take to go from Nickelodeon kid star to Saturday Night Live icon, all while trying to be a good dad?
- Behind-the-Scenes at SNL: From winning over the Hispanic community with his David Ortiz bit to sharing an office with Colin Jost, Kenan shares two decades of stories from Studio 8H.
- 90s Nostalgia: Go back to the days of All That, Good Burger, and Kenan & Kel, and discover the surprising life of a child star who made it out alive.
- Life Lessons from a Girl Dad: After becoming a dad to two girls, the cool was officially sucked right out of him—and he shares the hilarious, relatable lessons he learned along the way.
- Growing Up in the Game: From filming racist chicken commercials to going broke after being scammed, Kenan reveals how he learned from the school of hard knocks.
