Stephen "Steve-O" Glover-social media icon, comedy-touring
stalwart, and star of Jackass-delivers a hilarious and practical
guide to recovery, relationships, career, and how to keep thriving
long after you should be dead. Steve-O is best known for his wildly
dangerous, foolish, painful, embarrassing, and sometimes
death-defying stunts. At age 48, however, he faces his greatest
challenge yet: getting older. A Hard Kick in the Nuts: What I've
Learned from a Lifetime of Terrible Decisions is a captivating
exploration of life and how to live it by an individual who has
already lived way more than a lifetime's worth of extreme
experiences. Steve-O grapples with the right balance between
maturity and staying true to yourself, not repeating your "greatest
hits," maintaining sobriety and a healthy regimen, avoiding
selfishness, and finding the right partner for life. Having built a
gargantuan and loyal social media following while establishing a
successful stand-up career-all after a couple of decades of dubious
behavior-Steve-O is proof that anyone can find meaning and
fulfillment in life, no matter what path they choose. Packed with
self-deprecating wit and gruelingly earned wisdom, A Hard Kick in
the Nuts will reverberate with readers everywhere who have lived a
lot (sometimes too much) and are now wondering how to approach the
years to come. Or maybe just need some good motivation to get out
of bed tomorrow. One of many tips: Be your own harshest critic,
then cut yourself a break, and enjoy this book.

'I thoroughly enjoyed Splash! It's a delicious confection of
excellent plotting, an inventively bonkers cast of characters,
subtle insights into the world of newspapers and a satisfying
ending which invokes the great Evelyn Waugh's masterpiece, Scoop. A
fine comedy of manners by a writer who knows the media inside out'
BEL MOONEY Sam Blunt is a drunken, broken-down tabloid reporter,
working for a once-mighty newspaper struggling to come to terms
with the digital age. With the assistance of Benedict, an earnest
though clever wet-behind-the-ears young intern on the paper, Sam
grapples to uncover the story of the century which reveals the
political corruption and cynicism at the heart of a rotten
Establishment. As they try to nail the story amid a series of
capers, Sam and Benedict are frustrated by the self-serving
proprietor of the Daily Bugle, various self-appointed do-gooders
who want to rein in the Press, and Trevor Yapp, the malign and
untrustworthy editor of Bugle Online. Splash! is a satire of the
Press and politics in a modern London peopled by a Chinese
billionaire would-be press proprietor, a worldly bishop, neglected
immigrants, a corrupt and plaintive Prime Minister, and journalists
who are often most interested in doing one another down. Yet
however self-serving newspapers may sometimes be, Sam and Benedict
are ultimately on the side of the angels as they battle to write
their triumphant story.
