Meatheads Say the Realest Things

Meet Chad, a full-fledged Boston meathead-and gym-buff social misfit-whose shaky grasp of reality is, anchored mainly by his unswerving loyalty to the New England Patriots. In Chad's world, routine encounters with the fixtures of Beantown life-from the Boston Symphony and the Bunker Hill Monument to the local North End wine store, are filled with wonder and chaos. With twenty darkly hilarious chapters that follow Chad and his head-scratching brand of masculinity as he navigates through a perplexing post-#MeToo landscape of exasperated therapists, confused ex-girlfriends, and sexually transgressive ducks, Colin Fleming has created a devastating and uproarious meditation on the human need-and eternal hope-to be understood.
