A visit to the urologist has never been more hilarious - or revealing - than in Men’s Health, a new comedy written by Daniel Goldfarb and directed by Scott Ellis. Adam (Tony® winner Santino Fontana) is a TV writer in search of a diagnosis for a very personal problem. He ends up half naked and fully freaked out in the exam room of Dr. Szabo (Tony and Emmy® winner Tony Shalhoub), a physician with a unique bedside manner offering some truly unorthodox treatment options. After several months of appointments, both patient and doctor begin to open up, sharing some of the most private parts of their lives. But when Adam decides to write about their relationship, Dr. Szabo discovers how frightening and freeing it feels to be truly exposed.

Portions of this audiobook contain mature language and themes. Listener discretion is advised.

I love this short story. I was listening to fall asleep in 30, and ended staying up to finish it. Great story. And for the people who didn't like the politics in the story, first off, it is their story, not yours, and if you that distract you, then it's you, not them that is the problem.

Once again, great actors, storytelling, and GREAT message we can learn from.

This was a new way of relationship building story.

I have listened to most of the plays on audible. And there are some wonderful ones. But Men's Health is in a class by itself. Hilarious. Touching. Every man with an audible account needs to listen to it.

Best Play on Audible!

Very intriguing... wonder if the television show came to fruition? What a strange way to find out about yourself. But sometimes it takes someone so far removed to show you a glimpse of who you are.

A funny approach
