About this listen

Ever been fined for walking too loudly in flip-flops? Or wondered if it’s really illegal to name your child “4Real”? Welcome to Rules Schmools—a global tour of the strangest, smartest, and most delightfully unnecessary laws ever written.

From ketchup restrictions in French cafeterias to outlawed porch fridges in the American South, this book uncovers the fine print of daily life—laws that govern your lawn, your clothes, your dance moves, and even your snack habits. With quick, hilarious chapters and a tone that’s part trivia-night, part travelogue, Eddie Watts takes you deep into the legal oddities that say more about human nature than any textbook ever could.

Whether you're a curious traveler, a rule-breaker at heart, or just someone who loves shouting, “Wait, seriously?”—this book is for you.

Rules Schmools is the third title in the Seriously Though series, following the bestselling Yo, Sloth. I Got the Facts. and Straight from the Llama’s Mouth. If you’ve ever wondered what else the world might be regulating, Eddie’s got the rulebook—and the receipts.

Listen to it. Laugh out loud. Then double-check your shoes.
