William Hanson Presents The Mannersphere
In an age of alpha males, gym bros and ‘business’ podcasts, etiquette coach, author, and the upmarket half of Help I Sexted My Boss, William Hanson makes the case for the beta, the napkin, and the correctly written thank-you letter. The manosphere has had its moment.
William returns to the stage to reflect on the state of manners today and embarks on a mission to counter toxic masculinity and re-civilise the nation.
Part-memoir, part-variety show, part-public service, The Mannersphere traces the making of an etiquette expert, beginning with a teenager inventing his own genre of murder mystery (camp crime) and ending, several home videos later, with a published novel called A Fatal Forking. Somewhere in between, William Hanson is made.
Expect laughs. Expect introspection. Expect cutlery.
