About this listen
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 listeners 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.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

oerhört insiktsfull
tyckte steve va väldigt ärlig i sin berättelse, allt va relevant, han svävande inte ut i onödiga sidospår, hans raspiga röst va inte svår att lyssna snarare tvärtom. vill man känna sig hoppfull över att hur illa de än är/blir så går de ta sig ur 👍

I can't believe the only person that can convince me to get up off my lazy arse is Steve-O is wild
I absolutely love the heart and unfiltered soul he has put into this and the fact that he is not afraid to get into the nitty gritty parts of his life to better help people in the same situations.

This book is a wild ride!
I loved everything about this book, and it has helped me to realise that I probably have an unhealthy relationship with sugary foods. Thanks Steve-O!

Brilliantly honest and inspiring
Not just a fun book of stunt stories but a genuinely beautiful, self reflective book that was inspiring, funny and life affirming.
