Publisher's summary
Behind every awful, dangerous decision lurks one evil beast: the Cool.
From politics to the personal, from fashion to food, from the campus to the locker room, the desire to be cool has infected all aspects of our lives. At its most harmless, it is annoying. At its worst, it is deadly, on a massive scale. The Cool are the termites of life, infiltrating every nook and cranny and destroying it from within. The Cool report the news, write the scripts, teach our children, run our government - and each day they pass judgment on those who don’t worship their coolness. The cool fawn over terrorists, mock the military, and denigrate employers. They are, in short, awful people.
In Not Cool, Greg Gutfeld, host of Red Eye and cohost of The Five, and best-selling author of The Joy of Hate, lays out the battle plan for reclaiming the real American ideal of cool (building businesses, protecting freedom at home and abroad, taking responsibility for your actions, and leaving other people alone to live as they damn well please). Not Cool fights back against the culture of phonies, elitists, and creeps who want your soul. It’s not a book, it’s a weapon - and one should be armed with it at all times.

Story
Greg Gutfeld hates artificial tolerance. At the root of every single major political conflict is the annoying coddling Americans must endure of these harebrained liberal hypocrisies. In fact, most of the time liberals use the mantle of tolerance as a guise for their pathetic intolerance. And what we really need is smart intolerance, or as Gutfeld reminds us, what we used to call common sense. The Joy of Hate tackles this conundrum head on- - replacing the idiocy of open-mindness with a shrewd judgmentalism that rejects stupid ideas, notions, and people.

We push ourselves into unnecessary conflicts when we should feel like we’re all in this together. When someone says “you can’t joke about that,” what they really mean is “this is a subject that makes people sad or angry.”

It means celebrating powerful moments of Black self-determination for LeBron James, Dave Chappelle, and Frank Ocean. In Invisible Man, Got the Whole World Watching, Mychal Denzel Smith chronicles his own personal and political education during these tumultuous years.

Why would anyone join a cult? Maybe they're unhappy with their current religion, or they want to change the world, or they're disappointed with their lives and want to find something bigger or holier that makes sense of this confusing, chaotic and dangerous world. Or maybe they just want to give themselves the best possible chance of having sex with aliens. Whatever the reason, once people are in, it's usually very difficult for them to leave.

Story
For the first time, Slipknot and Stone Sour frontman Corey Taylor speaks directly to his fans and shares his worldview about life as a sinner. And Taylor knows how to sin. As a small-town hero in the early '90s, he threw himself into a fierce-drinking, drug-abusing, hard-loving, live-for-the-moment life. Soon Taylor's music exploded, and he found himself rich, wanted, and on the road. His new and ever-more-extreme lifestyle had an unexpected effect, however; for the first time, he began to actively think about what it meant to sin.

Double standards are nothing new. Women deal with them every day. Take the common truism that women who sleep around are sluts while men are studs. Why is it that men grow distinguished and sexily gray as they age while women just get saggy and haggard? Have you ever wondered how a young woman is supposed to both virginal and provocatively enticing at the same time?

With Normal Gets You Nowhere, Kelly Cutrone invites us to get our freak on. History is full of successful, world-changing people who did not fit in. Think Nelson Mandela, Joan of Arc, Eleanor Roosevelt, Amelia Earhart, John Lennon, and Rosa Parks. Instead of changing themselves to accommodate the status quo or what others thought they should be, these people hung a light on their differences - and changed humanity in the process. “I know you don’t feel normal, so why are you trying to act it and prove to everyone you are?” Cutrone says.

Ben Shapiro uncovers the simple strategy used by liberals and their friends in the media: bully the living hell out of conservatives. Play the race card, the class card, the sexism card. Use any and every means at your disposal to demonize your opposition - to shut them up. Then pretend that such bullying is justified because, after all, conservatives are the true bullies and need to be taught a lesson for their intolerance.

For some reason, when it comes to complex issues, we’ve largely limited ourselves to just two options, resulting in a society of non-thinkers.

As an independent, libertarian voter who has spent the last ten years at Fox News, Kat has faced this issue too many times to count. She’s learned that surprising things can happen when you refuse to choose a team, especially when you work at a place some people call an existential threat to America.

Great book, but terrible choice for narrator
Would you try another book from Greg Gutfeld and/or Steve Kramer?
Yes
Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Steve Kramer?
Greg Gutfeld, for crying out loud!! Greg, why didn't you read your own book? This guy reads like some old worn-out broadway actor, with golden toned enunciation. The humor, which is such a critical part of this book is totally lost by horrible reading by Kramer.

A Mix of Serious Insight & Sharp, Convivial Humor
Not Cool is full of sharp, witty insights on lots of topics, all roughly related to his "What is Cool Today and Why it Sucks" theme. After reading all 3 of his excellent books, I am convinced that Gutfeld has successfully carved out a position in the Conservative/Libertarian world that is similar to the one John Stewart has created for himself within the liberal precincts. Like Stewart, he manages to serve up important messages in a thoroughly entertaining way, without losing credibility for unfair bias with all but the most virulent, unreasonable members of the opposition party.
If he wasn't funny, I'd still be interested in his serious take on the issues of the day. If he wasn't actually a sharp, incisive commentator on those same issues, I'd still read him for his curmudgeonly sense of humor. But he is actually an unusual amalgam of both, and that is a delightful anomaly in the field of political and cultural commentary. To those of us who don't care all that much about "cool," that combination of intelligent seriousness and wit is kinda . . . well, cool.
Highly recommended for listeners of all political persuasions, and John Stewart's audience should make a point of reading it twice. Steve Kramer does a very good job of narrating, but I wish Gutfeld had narrated "Not Cool" like he did for his first book. He has a self-deprecating style of speaking that really sells the comedic elements and leavens the edgier barbs. And that kind of convivial comedic seriousness seems like the best recipe for delighting his fans, while at the same time gently prying open the minds of detractors so that his well-reasoned, intelligent arguments can slip in and start making logic babies in their brains. Read this one, for sure.

A New Way to Look at Society - The Gutfeld Way
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes , if you are a fan of the 5 or Red Eye. Greg is handcuffed on the TV media, but does he let it fly in this book - There are parts I have listened to 3-4 times. What he is saying not only is humorous but makes one think. How thinks changed in the 50's when everyone wanted to be "cool" . A very diverse way of looking at society from people wanting to be connected with the "cool" group.If you grow up in the 50's - 60's a must read.
What did you like best about this story?
The Psychology of what people will do to be part of a "cool" group. It is a funny book , but the book makes you think - WOW I never thought of it that way. The theme is carried right to the current day.
Which scene was your favorite?
I think it came in the beginning of the book and then I was hooked. The comparison of a new H.S. student walking into a H. S.hallway and he compare the lockers to apartments. - Interesting.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
I don't think there was a moment that moved me, but I was surprised how current today's world events were attached to the "cool"idea. He made connections to today's world leaders, make one scratch their head.
Any additional comments?
This is one book I will listen to again.

Sobering truths & solid advice humorously delivered. Gutfeld has done it again. Only better. This is definitely worth your time. Share it!

Great book should be required reading in high school
Great book should be required reading and if you're a parent you should get this book and have your kids read or listen to it at a minimum right up there with Napoleon Hill

Hits it home
This is my second book that he has written. So much truth with so much humor. Love his sarcastic sense of style.

Greg Gutfeld kills it with this book!
Mr Kramer did a great job, but being a fan of Greg Gutfeld I just wish he had read it himself!

the book was very thought provoking.
I wish the author had read it. The person reading it was good but the author would have added nuance.

Severely Biased with some really good points
What did you like best about Not Cool? What did you like least?
I liked the relevance and the points Gutfield was making in the context of modern politics, issues, and pop-culture.
What three words best describe Steve Kramer’s performance?
He made Gutfeld sound even more like a douche by using exceptionally well-tuned sarcastic, whiny, and other emotional voices. Good work, I think. Just annoying though.
Was Not Cool worth the listening time?
Yes. It is worth getting the viewpoints from another individual who has overlapping viewpoints and different viewpoints as well.
Any additional comments?
Severely biased and opinionated, Gutfeld goes on some of the Obama is the worst president ever tirades that could have been wayy more educated and well thought out. Don't get me wrong, I didn't vote for him, but I thought his arguments could have been far more plausible if he had used more factual information instead of inserting his opinions. I also think it is ironic that he uses quips, one-liners and mostly bad jokes to fluff his writing. Gutfeld nails it on some issues such as age, and race, but totally misses his mark when he tried to talk about women's role in society throughout the years.

Great book…. Gutfeld is a true wordsmith
If you haven’t read Gutfeld books, then you don’t know the truth. He is a true wordsmith.
