Manatomy with Danny Wallace & Phil Hilton

REVEREND RICHARD COLES: “I used to long to be a brain in a jar.”

Legendary pop star. Local vicar. The Reverend Richard Coles is our guest this week and it is fantastic. Warm, wise and remarkably candid, the former Communard turned vicar, turned TV and radio star talks about body hatred, dodgy teeth, amphetamines, and the discovery he made in a tent in 1976 that radically changed his summer.<br/>As ever, email us on <a href="mailto:hello@assemblehere.co.uk">hello@assemblehere.co.uk</a>, find us on Twitter @assemblehere and if you review us, let us know the thing about your body you’d give five stars!<br/>Don’t forget you can subscribe to our twice-weekly newsletter, packed with stories and useful stuff, at assemblehere.co.uk.

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.
