Audible Studios, a production arm of Audible.com, today announced the release of actor, director and writer Sean Penn's audio interpretation of Bob Honey Who Just Do Stuff.

This audiobook recording, which also includes cameo performances by Frances McDormand, Ari Fliakos and Leila George, is now available for free download at audible.com/bobhoney.
