John Waters wants to bring out the trouble-maker in us all

Get ready, everyone, because the People’s Pervert, the Prince of Puke, the Duke of Dirt, John Waters is back and he wants to change the world.

He's currently promoting his new book, Make Trouble, and he's hoping to instill in people a little bit of himself. He wants you to embrace chaos, horrify others with new ideas, and outrage outdated critics.

The book -- which is due out in April -- is based on his "gleefully subversive advice" at the Rhode Island School of Design commencement in 2015. Video of the speech went viral and he decided to turn it into a book.  

Of course, things have changed a great deal in two years, so has his advice lost some of its meaning?

"Weirdly enough, without knowing -- certainly I was as shocked as many people were when Trump won -- now the book is more appropriate than ever before, because it tells you how we have to fight from the inside," he said in a recent interview. "Don't be an outsider anymore -- that's so old hat. Be an insider, and infiltrate, and win from the inside."

You can pre-order the book here, and if you missed the speech it is worth a listen. And because we're the best, we've included it below!
