Bestselling author, Paralympian and viral-sensation Josh Sundquist tracked down all the girls he'd ever tried to date to ask why they rejected him. He shares the results of his semi-scientific investigation (and yes, it's a true story) in this one-of-a-kind live performance that blends interactive storytelling with standup comedy. From a disastrous mini-golf date involving a backward prosthetic foot to a misguided "grand gesture" at a Miss America pageant, it's a story about looking for love—or at least a girlfriend—in all the wrong places.

Josh has spoken across the world to groups ranging from Fortune 500 companies to schools to the White House. At age nine, Josh was diagnosed with a rare form of bone cancer and given a fifty percent chance to live. He spent a year on chemotherapy treatments and his left leg was amputated. Doctors declared Josh cured of the disease at age thirteen and he took up ski racing three years later. In 2006 he was named to the US Paralympic Ski Team.

Today, Josh represents the United States in international competition as a member of the U.S. Amputee Soccer Team. People Magazine named him to the 2017 "Social Media Power List." Josh served a two-year tenure as the National Spokesperson for the Combined Federal Campaign and has been featured on CNN, USA TODAY, and NPR, and in many other less-famous and important sounding media outlets.
