Narrado por: Stephen Steve-O Glover

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.

“I read this book all in one sitting. I am first of all blown away by Steve-O’s continued sobriety and also his honesty and complete transparency in writing this wonderful book. Eternally proud of my brother.” ―Johnny Knoxville, co-creator and star of Jackass

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.

"This is the perfect book for people who hate reading." ―Tommy Lee, author of Tommyland

Lifelong Steve-O Fan

Whether it be from making my own Jackass inspired, stupidity filled videos, to Wild Ride, or his books; Steve-O has been an inspiration to me for 20+ years now. Seeing him get sober definitely helped me “keep my nose clean” too, and turn my own life around.

Thank you, Steve-O.

Yeah dude!
