I didn't hear the show but it sounds like A Confederacy of Dunces byI John Kennedy Toole!.

From wiki's description:
A Confederacy of Dunces is a novel written by John Kennedy Toole, published in 1980, 11 years after the author's suicide!. The book was published through the efforts of writer Walker Percy (who also contributed a revealing foreword) and Toole's mother Thelma Toole, quickly becoming a cult classic!. Toole posthumously won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1981!.
