Some of the UK's most insightful, witty - and middle-aged - male social commentators of our time investigate aspects of people's lives that make us who we are. Sir Bob Geldof, John Peel, Richard Madeley, Will Self and Rick Stein are just a few of the handpicked collection of grumpy, world-weary blokes who share their gripes on everything that irritates and torments them. Food, fame, football... and eventually other things that don't begin with F. Call centres, the cult of celebrity, technology, customer service, body piercing, speed humps and ring tones are all in the line of fire.
