Manatomy is a place where well-known men talk honestly about their bodies. It’s not about getting thinner or fitter or putting on muscle – it’s about being funny and honest. We cover secret vanities, bizarre insecurities, muscle, fat, broken bones, damaged pride and the magnetic appeal of cheese. You will laugh, gasp and feel part of a warm awkward, human family.

13 JUL 2022 · Novelist Mike Gayle has forged a career in industries largely populated by women. He’s a former agony uncle, responding for dispensing advice to worried teenage girls, and his bestselling books like Turning 30 and My Legendary Girlfriend explore relationships and manhood in really accessible ways.
Here he talks men, women, pole vaulting, great calves, stallion thighs, lovely fingernails and the day he realised he absolutely definitely needed glasses.

6 JUL 2022 · It’s one year of Manatomy! Today, the hugely affable Martin Roberts joins Danny & Phil with an urgent message. Martin is one of daytime TV’s most familiar faces, thanks not just to Homes Under the Hammer, but also his appearances on I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here and for stripping off for The Real Full Monty.
But what he thought was Long-COVID and took him to the doctor’s turned out to be something else incredibly dangerous, and if he hadn’t sought help he was told he’d have had only minutes to live. What on earth is that like, and where’s he at now?

15 JUN 2022 · This guy is an absolute dude. A pop-artist who took up the game after leaving Tesco at 40, he quickly became a favourite of the Gallagher brothers, Arctic Monkeys and more. He can sum up the life of a body with just a few of his brushstrokes - despair, delight, love, angst. But his own body - raised on Sheffield stodge - has given him a few surprises, and in this episode, he tells Danny & Phil about the shock his body one day surprised him with - but which led to more than a little enlightenment.
Talking music, surprise organ transplants, fear, mortality, and the guilt of a total stranger giving you life… it’s the thoughtful and brilliant Pete McKee.

1 JUN 2022 · Thoughtful and erudite comic Mark Watson has put his body through a lot over the years. Whether it’s adrenaline, stress, panic or literally ending up near-starving on a desert island eating snails.
Here he talks with Danny & Phil about booze, self-criticism, fear, losing control, anxiety, confidence, doubt and so much more. It’s a great chat with a man who, like a lot of men and women, maybe needs to forgive himself more.

25 MAY 2022 · The brilliant journalist and author Sam Delaney is also the brains behind the excellent The Reset podcast and newsletter. Why The Reset? Because Sam had to do just that.
In this episode, he talks just as frankly but always as entertainingly as he writes, about booze, drugs, addiction, anxiety, hair loss, and the trip to IKEA that went very wrong indeed.
It all sounds like A Lot, but Sam is such great company that it flies by. Our thanks to him.
Check out The Reset at https://samdelaney.substack.com/ if you feel like any of the issues raised need a friend to help you talk it through.

18 MAY 2022 · Chef Andre Rush is one-of-a-kind. Once a sickly kid, he grew into a US Army Master Sergeant with enormous biceps who does 2,222 push-ups every single day.
He also became a chef. One who would find himself a White House chef, cooking fordiplomats and no fewer than four US Presidents. On September 11th 2001, he was in the gym at the Pentagon when the attacks happened. He immediately signed up for combat duty.
On the show, he talks male pride, masculinity, Arnold Schwarzenegger, PTSD, and what President Obama really liked to snack on.

11 MAY 2022 · We talk about things we’ve never talked about on the show before, thanks to record-setting LBC broadcaster and journalist James O’Brien, whose article on the shock of realising you may be close to infertile has helped very many men.
Elsewhere, he talks his own adoption and the strange feeling of not knowing who you’re growing up to look like, the toxic men so many ‘posh’ schools pump out, hair loss, bad knees, and shaking hands with the men at the sperm place.
