The smudge looked suspiciously penis- like. The doctor
confirmed: "That's the baby's penis!" which caused not
celebration, but panic. Joel pictured having to go camping
and fix a car and use a hammer and throw a football and
watch professionals throw footballs and figure out whether
to be sad or happy about the results of said football throwing. So begins his quest to confront his effete nature whether he
likes it or not (he doesn't), by doing a twenty-four-hour
shift with L.A. firefighters, going hunting, rebuilding a
house, driving a Lamborghini, enduring three days of boot
camp with the U.S. Army, day-trading with $100,000, and
going into the ring with UFC Hall of Famer Randy Couture.
Seeking help from a panel of experts, including his manly
father-in-law, Boy Scouts, former NFL star Warren Sapp,
former MLB All-Star Shawn Green, Adam Carolla, and a pit
bull named Hercules, he expects to learn that masculinity is
defined not by the size of his muscles, but by the size of
his heart (also, technically, a muscle). This is not at all
what he learns.
