About this listen
But beneath that simple exterior lies a mysterious and complex being.
In The British Bloke Decoded, writer, comedian and regular bloke, Geoff Norcott peels back the layers of blokedom, revealing the truth behind the sometimes inexplicable behaviour of Britain's husbands, dads and brothers.
Based on 46 years of field research and almost scientific insights, Geoff digs deep into subjects as wide as: the value of Banter, the surprising roots of Mansplaining, the near impossibility of getting blokes to send birthday cards, and whether there could be a medal system for Hoovering.
And ultimately, he concludes that whilst the toxic men have been grabbing all the publicity - perhaps now's the time to celebrate the simple British bloke in all his eccentric splendour.
WITH 4 BONUS CHAPTERS EXCLUSIVE TO THE AUDIOBOOK... including Wanna See My Sticker Collection? and How to Give Compliments (Without Arousing Suspicion)

Critic Reviews
Geoff's examination of blokeness is Geoff all over - funny and insightful, making serious points without committing the cardinal sin of taking itself too seriously. Top bloke.
Highly informative. Geoff will make a proper bloke out of me yet.
A brilliant and hilarious book which defends blokes without denigrating women
I laughed a lot and now understand blokes a lot more than I ever wanted to (Katherine Ryan)
Geoff is one of the funniest intelligent thinkers in comedy and this book reflects that perfectly (Romesh Ranganathan)
