Summary

BONUS CONTENT! BONUS CONTENT! BONUS CONTENT!

Are men supposed to be fighters? Lovers? Hunter-gatherers? Fashionistas? Business gurus? Culinary experts? You’re wrong if you think one man can’t be a jack AND a master of all trades.

In this special audio edition of How To Be A Man, you’ll hear from the horsie’s mouth how to be a proper god amongst men. You’ll learn how to boss a job interview – remember, the eyes are the windows to the soul which is why you should avoid eye-contact at all costs. You don’t want them looking into your disgustingly dirty soul. I also share some chirpsing tekkers, such as my new style, ‘7 down, 1 up,’ where you viciously insult the lady seven times and then give her one compliment. And you’ll learn the importance of practising #SelfLove, like a true millennial man – there are two things I know about real men, they have curves and they cry. But I’m not giving you any more details than that, mate – you’ll have to buy the book.

I actually only managed to write 13,000 words so I’ve had to bulk the audio version up a bit with extra girthy content. You’re actually getting more for your money, mate! And the production quality is proper tonk, too – just ignore those voicemails. I didn’t mean to include those.  

So sit back, relax, light a candle. Get naked if you want to. Get the baby oil out – I don’t judge – and let my silky, smooth tones caress your eardrums.

Absolute Bvanger mate!

This book is bloody amazing mate. I only read it once and already I feel like an actual proper man mate. There were a few bits that I thought I’d struggle with, like the sqvinting look but I did manage it the end. I mean bloody hell, if this ain’t worth £10 or however much I stole it for then I don’t know vot is mate. 10/10. Will definitely read again when I start feeling feminine and all that. Big up Chabuddy G. Hopevully meet for that coffvee soon.

Class act Chabuddy G

Laughing from the start until the finish, “Chabzy” brings out all the qualities we love in PJDN to an audio book. For anyone with a sense of humour!

Too much Asim C. Not enough Chabuddy G.

Chabuddy G is a brilliant comedy character in the rich British sitcom tradition. His creator is a funny, talented man and he often stole the scene in "People Just Do Nothing".

Unfortunately, the author seems to have taken the Brexit vote quite personally and it seems to have put him at odds (at least in his own mind) with his countrymen. Too many of the payoffs and punchlines in this production rely on the assumption that the vote for the UK to leave the European Union was a vote of hatred against ethnic minorities. Something that is is untrue, hurtful and not particularly funny when laboured in this way.

The author seems to have been unable to resist the urge to use Chabuddy as a mouthpiece for these fears and frustrations. Chabuddy is his character, so that is his prerogative. But it didn't ring true to me. Coogan uses Partridge to take a dig at his political bugbears sometimes, but he is much more clever and subtle about it. It rarely seems un-Alan. The same can't be said about the use of Chabuddy here. Also, this was written in 2018. In 2023, the Brexit references have already aged "How to be Man" poorly.

Anyway, Chabuddy/Asim, we don't you hate you. We all love you because you make us laugh and that makes you a hero.

Oh, and by the way, I have no hesitation in recommending the new Kurupt FM Podkast here on Audible which also features The Girthinator in all his glory.
