🎧 What Could Possibly Go Wrong? – Audiobook by Marcel Romdane

Dark Humor Meets Disaster Memoir.
Welcome, fellow disaster spectators.

Congratulations—
You’ve officially made one of the worst decisions of your week by stumbling onto this channel.
As if regurgitating chaos onto paper wasn’t enough, we’ve now decided to escalate things even further:

Marcel Romdane is narrating his own book.
Out loud.
To actual human beings.
On purpose.

 

🧨 About the Audiobook

This isn’t some beige self-help fluff written by a Bali-bound influencer with a matcha addiction.
This is What Could Possibly Go Wrong?, the true story audiobook about crashing planes, dodging machetes, and outwitting bureaucracy with a duffel bag, a Labrador, and a rapidly deteriorating sense of optimism.

Narrated by Marcel himself—because of course the guy who got stuck in a Kenyan slum during a thunderstorm thought he could also take on a microphone.

 

📚 Expect:

  • True survival tales from Africa’s slums to Canada’s snow-blasted airstrips
  • Chaotic bush-flying over Rift Valley terrain that actively wants you dead
  • Audiobook narration so unhinged it makes fiction cry
  • Moments of blackout comedy and raw, dark absurdity
  • Zebra-seat luxury cockpits. Real machetes. No metaphors.

 

⚠️ Listener Warnings

1. The Accent.
Not German.
Not American.
Not British.
Just Marcel Romdane losing a linguistic fistfight with his own face.
Every syllable is a car crash. Vowels die. Consonants flee.
(But don’t worry—it’s definitely not French. Even chaos has standards.)

2. The Paperback is Mandatory.
Not for reading.
For decoding.
Think of it as closed captions for catastrophe—your survival guide to understanding what the hell he’s saying, or, a Rosetta Stone for surviving Marcel’s pronunciation.

 

🎬 Why Listen?

Because you’re sick of beige.
Because productivity podcasts make you want to chew drywall.
Because hearing a man narrate his own mental breakdown while attempting to land a bush plane on a mud strip in Nairobi is—somehow—more relaxing than another TED Talk on morning routines.
Because at least this one’s real.

 

🚧 Status Report

Is the audiobook finished?
Absolutely not.

Will it ever be?
Probably never.

But don’t worry—
Once the chaos clears (spoiler: it won’t), we’ll keep burning the mic and uploading new reels, right here.

Until then:
🎞️ Preview reels are below
🎧 Therapy disguised as narration is ongoing
📖 Paperback available for your translation survival needs

WARNING:


Listening to Marcel may cause spontaneous confusion, laughter-induced hernias, and existential crises about why you still have ears.

Not responsible for emotional damage, dental expenses, or sudden urges to rethink your life choices.
Proceed with caution—and a helmet.

Let me set the scene:
I had access to weather reports.
I had local knowledge.
I even had a functioning brain. Allegedly.

But none of that stopped me from charging into the African twilight like a caffeinated lemming with a pilot license and a savior complex.

I ignored every single warning sign:

  • Clouds building like revolutionaries in a coup.

  • Birds heading the other way like they knew something I didn’t.

  • And my own gut screaming, “Don’t do it, moron!” — which, of course, I mistook for indigestion.

So I lifted off. Alone.
Straight into a horizontal wall of grey, as if the sky had decided to erase itself mid-sentence.

The windshield turned into a Jackson Pollock of raindrops and regret.
Visibility? Gone.
Horizon? Guesswork.
Terrain? Probably somewhere below, sharpening its teeth.

Every few seconds, lightning would flash just enough to remind me what a dumb idea this was, then disappear again like the last shred of my dignity.

Moral of the story?
Don’t mistake confidence for competence.
And never trust a calm patch of sky — it’s just the storm inhaling

“Almost Slaughtered in the Ghetto” – Kenya, 2012
Welcome to the part of the memoir where my brain short-circuited and thought, “Let’s fly into a storm. Over a slum. In a zebra-upholstered coffin.”

What started as a noble idea — aviation outreach in Naivasha’s forgotten corners — ended in monsoon windshield philosophy, unexpected machete encounters, and a runway so questionable even Google Maps tapped out.

Somewhere between the flying goats, the death stares from Nairobi’s sky, and my aviation “confidence” rooted entirely in Microsoft Flight Simulator, I realized:
This wasn’t a bush flying mission. It was a televised obituary with turbulence.

🎧 Hear it all in the audiobook — narrated by the idiot in the cockpit. Now with extra sarcasm. And zebra print.

“Yukon. 2018. I came chasing a ballet of freedom and man-against-nature grit. I found frostbite, feral horses, and a masterclass in quiet mental breakdowns.

Did Someone Die in Here? Part 1
From the cockpit of a leaky death trap to the silence of a snow-covered graveyard masquerading as a ranch, this was wilderness romance—repackaged by Satan and sold with a solar panel.
And just when I thought it couldn’t get darker, they tied down a horse like it was furniture. I didn’t walk away. I flew. Fast. Because sometimes, escaping the dream is the only way to stay human.”

“A Cabin, A Cub & Captain Filth”
They said we’d be roughing it in the Yukon. They forgot to mention the stench. That log shack you see, moored beside the lake and humming with desperation? That’s where the illusion met reality. In Did Someone Die in Here? Part 1, I tried to fly dignity like a floatplane—but reality only laughed, pulled the fog over my windows, and handed me a showerless season filled with sweat, guilt, and self-inflicted chaos. Welcome to Reel 2 of What Could Possibly Go Wrong?, where even wooden cabins come with existential rot and mosquito horoscopes.
