Synopsis

Tyrese Gibson and Rev Run of Run DMC have formed a lasting friendship in the unlikeliest of ways. After an unexpected argument -- Rev Run insisted that marriage is forever, Tyrese pushed that you could bail when the sex went bad -- the oddest of odd couples decided not just to agree to disagree, but to team up and open up their debate to a larger audience. MANOLOGY combines the best of their often countering theories about love and offers real world advice for building a romance that's healthy, long-lasting, and full of great sex. Rev Run is married with six kids and Tyrese is a single dad still hesitant to settle down -- both have experienced all sides of the male spectrum and seen what harm can be done to the unprepared woman. MANOLOGY presents no-nonsense and unconventional love advice for both understanding and handling the man in every woman's life. With Rev Run's humor and goodwill, and Tyrese's straight talk and sex appeal, MANOLOGY will speak to any woman looking to finally take control of her love life and snag the man of her dreams.
