However, he encounters similar issues with Harry's, leading him to lose trust in both brands.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
And I'm rocking with Harry's for a while. These motherfuckers
are fucking on point. I'm like I loved Dollar Shaved
Club when it first fucking came out. Never Die, Never Die,
Never Die, Never die, Never die, Die Die. All right, Uh,

(00:22):

Use my link in the notes get twenty percent off
all that good shit. I appreciate it, you know what
I'm saying. But let's get today's podcast. Uh. There's not
too many days that I get mad or that I

(01:23):
get upset. But I was shaving and I fucking nicked
my neck. Fucking nicked my fucking neck, you know what
I'm saying. And it's not that I don't know how
to shave. I got a fucking thick, fucking beard. My
hair grows in extremely fucking coarse. It is what it is.

(01:43):
My shit is fucking luscious. I will fucking admit it.
But I do love my fucking beard. But I like
to keep it nice and tight. I like to clean
it up. I like to fucking you know, my beard
to look clean, fucking cut. So I do shave all
right underneath my neck, above my fucking cheeks, all that
fucking shit, you know, just to keep my shit looking
fucking clean. Like the majority of us, the majority of
us wanna be clean cut. We wanna fucking look smooth.

(02:05):
We want to have that fucking beard on point. And
that's the whole point. You know what I'm saying. We
purchase razors to shave. I don't like electric razors. I
like to lather it up. Fucking use a regular you know,
I don't use a regular fucking blade. I use a
fucking a four or five blade fucking razor. Heead. I
like it, how smooth it gets. And you know what
I had the same issue. Wasn't that long ago when

(02:27):
Dollars Shave Club first fucking came out. Then motherfuckers were
on point, heavy duty fucking handle, great fucking blades. I'm
talking about crisp, clean, smooth, no irritation shave. And then
all of a sudden it must have gotten bought out
about a company. I'm doing no fucking research on this.
I'm just fucking shooting from the fucking hip because this

(02:49):
is what I think, and this is what I understand,
and typically this is what fucking happens. You get a
large corporation who buys a small corporation who has a
high quality fucking product, A high quality fucking product. When
Dollar Shave Club first came out and I was like,
I was sick and tired of all these Gillette fucking
you know, mock five fucking this and this, and just

(03:11):
fucking just marring up my fucking face because they're not
great fucking razors, all right, It's just what we have
a lot of us out here, that's all. We fucking
got whatever. They fucking cell and they're expensive as fuck,
all right. Razor blades are expensive as fuck. It pisses
me to fuck off, but we fucking need them, so
we buy them. It's just one of those fucking necessary things,

(03:32):
all right. So I started buying Dollar Shave Club and
I want I don't even know remember how long I've
had it, for a long time, and then all of
a sudden, I got my fucking refill in the fucking mail,
and I fucking nicked my face. You know what I'm
saying a little fucking you know now, I'm not talking
about fucking just peeled my fucking skin off. I'm talking
about just a little fucking cut. And I'm like, Okay,
it fucking happens. But then it just continually fucking happened,

(03:52):
And then I noticed I had to replace the fucking
razor blades more often. Than I fucking normally, did, you
know what I'm saying. And then all of a sudden,
I got my replacement fucking handle, and the replacement handles plastic.
It wasn't no longer a stainless fucking steel, heavy duty,
fucking felt good in the hands, fucking nice rubber, fucking grips,
all that fucking shit. And then when they fucking downgraded,
all of a sudden, it's in Walmart, all of a

(04:13):
sudden's in every stores. All of a sudden, you can't
get it by fucking mail, and it's this mass produced
fucking junk. It literally turned into the fucking mass market
brand fucking razor blades, all right, That's exactly what it
fucking did. And I'm like fucking disappointed having to fucking
cancel my fucking subscription because I loved getting him in
the fucking mail. You know, it came with a nice
little fucking box, It was clean, fucking didn't take up

(04:37):
fucking room, great fucking blades. I loved Dollar Shave Club
when it first fucking came out. And then I had
to make the fucking switch. You know what I'm saying,
what's the next fucking blade, what's the Next thing, I
fucking use you know what I'm saying. Next thing I knew.
I'm looking at Harry's. Harry's is this new one. It's
the same thing as Dollars Shaved Club. I ordered my
fucking Harry's fucking razor. I get my samp fucking pack.

(05:00):
I'm like, all right, I'll give it a fucking try,
buy the sample pack, get an extra fucking blade, and
I start shaving. These motherfuckers are fucking on point. I'm like,
this is what Dollar Shave Club used to fucking be.
This is what it was, you know what I'm saying.
And I'm rocking with Harry's for a while, all right,
fucking cleaning me up, taking fucking care, and this is
what happens. My fucking my handle gets fucking old. You

(05:24):
know what I'm saying. It's all it's a little worn out.
The plastic fucking rubber on the fucking handles rubbed, not
rubbed as good. You know what I'm saying. It's it
just needs to be fucking replaced, you know what I'm saying.
So I fucking you know, take my ass down to
Costco because you know, Costco is now selling Harry's fucking
Razor fucking blades. So I buy a fucking pack, the

(05:44):
fucking thing happens. I nick my fucking face like three times,
you know what I'm saying. And I got my replacement
handle because I bought the fucking bundle. Pack came with
fucking thirteen fucking blades for like forty fucking bucks, came
with fucking and that, you know, the handle, the blades,
a fucking and all that fucking shit. In the first
fucking brand new blade out the fucking box, I nick
my fucking neck twice. It sucks because you know, when

(06:10):
you have these high quality products and you expect a
certain level of expectation of like this is clean, this
is fucking smooth. I love it, I enjoy it, and
then when you get that fucking first fucking turn of Oh,
I have thirteen fucking pieces of useless, fucking junk razor
fucking blades, you know what I'm saying. Of course, I'm

(06:32):
not gonna throw them the fuck away. I paid for
these motherfuckers, so I'm gonna run it till I'm fucking done.
But now I gotta be extra careful. Now I gotta
be fucking a little more on point when I'm fucking shaving,
I'm just not fucking you know, going quickly how I
normally would. When I used to have these high quality
fucking blades. Like I said, when Dollar Shaved Club came out,
loved it, fucking loved it, five fucking stars, would recommend

(06:53):
to anybody. I would even let them be a fucking
sponsor to fucking podcast, you know. And once I made
the fucking chain and I make the fucking change to Harry's,
and I'm like, okay, cool, I got my fucking sample
thing in the fucking mail. It's just like what Dollar
Try Shaved Club used to fucking be high fucking quality.
Enjoy what the fuck I got. And then now I
fucking you know, need to replace my fucking blades. You

(07:14):
know what I'm saying, because when I buy my fucking blades,
I'm not buying a few at a time. You know
what I'm saying, I'm buying a lot. I'm ordering a subscription.
You see what I'm fucking saying. Like, that's how much
I trust in it, where I'm like, okay, cool, I'll
get these replacements as they come in, you know what
I'm saying. You usually get about six fucking blades every
time you fucking order them and they're fucking nice, I

(07:35):
decide to fucking you know, oh, Costco's got them. That's
a good fucking deal. I like these fucking blades, so
I'm gonna fucking buy these fucking blades. And the next thing,
you know, I nick my fucking neck and I just
fucking realized. I'm like, oh, yeah, this replacement handle is
not the exact same handle I got when I fucking
first tried this. It fucking sucks. It's light, it's not flimsy,
but guess what, has no fucking heft to it. It

(07:57):
doesn't feel like the fucking when I gum first fucking one.
Word's like, all right, cool, this feels fucking manly, This
feels solid, This feels like it's gonna do the fucking job.
And now I have this fucking light, wimpy, fucking stupid
fucking handle, you know what I'm saying. And I can
already see where the fucking like the rubber on it
that fucking used to hold for your fucking grip is

(08:17):
fucking poorly fucking glued. After I inspect it, after I
use it, I'm like, man, what the fuck's up with this,
let me check it the fuck out, and then I
fucking see it. What I'm saying is I miss high
quality fucking products. I want a fucking razor blade that
I can put on my fucking face and trust. I
want something that that's gonna give me a smooth, fucking cut,

(08:39):
close clean shave. You know what I'm saying, I don't
want to have to worry that. You know, the company
got bought out, so now they're using inferior fucking products.
They're using inferior fucking metal, they're using inferior fucking shit
that's from fucking China who that doesn't fucking compare to
what I was fucking getting. You know what I'm saying,

(09:00):
I don't know how Dollar Shaped Club made it before.
I don't know how fucking Harry's made it before. I
just knew it was high fucking quality, It fucking cut clean,
and it was fucking great. And now they fucking suck.
Now they're fucking no good. Of course, I could have
probably absolutely you know what I'm saying about a brand
new fucking pack, and I just the first fucking razor

(09:21):
I use out of the fucking box is defective. Of course,
that's a fucking possibility. But I shouldn't have to be
worrying about these fucking possibilities because these are precision fucking
tools that we buy to fucking scrape the fucking hair
off her fucking face, to cleanly fucking be hygienic. You
see what I'm fucking saying, Like I shouldn't have to
worry about that. That's fucking bullshit, you know what I'm saying.

(09:45):
There's not too often that I get fucking mad at
some shit like this. I can really let stuff go.
But what I miss is understanding that I want to.
When I'm making a purchase that I have built up
trust with and then that trust is broken, It's like,
what do you fucking do? Who do you fucking go
to next. I'm in the process of looking at all

(10:05):
these straight fucking blades. Look single blades are coming back
into style. I'm like, all right, cool, they're cleaner, they're
more hygienic. You know. They have these replacements, they have
these handles, they have all these things. But it's like,
which razor blade do I fucking go with? Which razor
blade do I fucking try? Which one am I willing
to gamble my fucking face with. It's just something I
don't want to fucking have to deal with, but it's

(10:26):
something I'm gonna have to deal with because I gotta
do it. And now I gotta fucking see, Hey, who's
the most highest quality, Who's got the best fucking rating?
You know what I'm saying. When it's like, Oh, this
is a great fucking blade. I tried to fuck out
and this is what it is, you know what I'm saying.
I just hate the fact that I have to go
through this again. You know what I'm saying. I've gone
from fucking, you know, cheap two blade plastics to fucking

(10:49):
three blades, four blades, five blades. You know what I'm saying.
The blade on the back of the fucking razors so
you can keep it nice and fucking tight and clean
lines on your fucking beard, so it has a fifth
fucking blade or a six fucking blade. You know what
I'm saying. I want something that I can purchase and
not have to fucking worry about it. I want something

(11:09):
so high quality that it's worth my fucking money where
I can use it multiple fucking times and be like, oh, okay, cool,
guess what, Oh this blade's a little old. This blade's
a little clog. Let me toss it and replace it.
I want a hefty fucking handle. I want something with
some fucking weight that makes me feel like a fucking
even more of a fucking man as I'm scraping the

(11:32):
fucking hair off my fucking face with it. You know,
I don't give a fuck how it fucking looks. I
don't give a fuck how fucking it's packaged. I always
want something that when I pick it up, I know
I can fucking trust it. When I'm putting it to
my face, I know I can fucking trust it as
I'm fucking just grinding the fucking hair off my skin.

(11:54):
You know, it's not that much to ask for some
a company to fucking keep their fucking standards. You know
what I'm saying, a lot of these fucking companies, Oh,
this is our promise to you that we're gonna be
the highest quality. We're gonna be dedicated to making sure
that you're satisfied with what you fucking have. That's all
I want. I want someone who would hold to that

(12:17):
fucking standard, and with that standard, understand that. Guess what,
that's what I want. That's what I fucking trust and
when I fucking make my fucking purchase, I shouldn't have
to fucking guess it. You know, That's all it fucking is.
Like I said, Dollar Shaved Club failed me, Harry's failed me.

(12:37):
It is what it fucking is. I'll move the fuck on.
You know what I'm saying, I'm just gonna get off
my fucking high horse of fucking complaining about something so minute.
So my minis skule. You know what I'm saying, it's
low on the totem pole about everything. But the thing
is is I want the quality that I'm purchasing. You
know what I'm saying. These companies portrayed themselves as we're
this high quality, we're this top tier, and and you

(13:00):
know we have all these things to offer you. And
now the one thing that you're offering me that got
me into the fucking door is a piece of shit.
That means the rest of it is shit. Because if
one product failed that, she's probably their flagship of what
they fucking offer, because the offer the entire line of
fucking men's products. I'm talking about shampoo, conditioner, all in one, soap,

(13:23):
fucking beard bomb, fucking beard lotion, fucking regular fucking lotion.
You know what I'm saying, bars, soap, body wash, fucking
you know what I'm saying, the offer at all, and
I more than happily used it all because I felt
I could trust the brand. Well, guess the fuck what
I could give a fuck less about the brand. I'll

(13:44):
move the fuck on to the next fucking product that
makes me fucking happy once I fucking find it. But
all I want is a solid fucking razor that I
can fucking trust, and I have to fucking turn around
and worry about will it go bad? Is this gonna
fucking eventually be no good? You see what I'm saying.
I just want something that's gonna be something high quality

(14:04):
at an affordable fucking price that I can trust. Because
it's not like I'm buying a fucking you know what
I'm saying, food or clothing. I'm buying something that scrapes
my fucking face, that fucking shaves me. That is a
razor blade that I put to my fucking throat. You
see what I'm fucking saying. This is something that you
should be able to back up. You know what I'm saying.

(14:25):
We all have our favorite brands we all have our
favorite razors. Women shave their legs, men shave their fucking face.
You know what I'm saying. It's just we want something
that's gonna be a fucking precision, fucking tool to do
its fucking job without giving me irritation, without fucking causing
my fucking neck to feel like it's on fucking fire
or fucking cutting me. I don't want to be fucking nicked,

(14:48):
you know what I'm saying. I just want something that's
h A lot of these blades are fucking you know
what I'm saying, that they're dummy fucking proof because they
have the guards, they have the plastic, they have the rails,
they have these you know, strips for fucking you know,
fucking you know better glide and fucking you know, moisturizing
and fucking exfoliating all the way up fucking round them.

(15:09):
I want a fucking blade that I can put to
my fucking face and not fucking worry about a goddamn
thing and it do its fucking job. It's not that
fucking hard. It is what it fucking is, you know
what I'm saying. Like I said, I could sit here
fucking complain all fucking day about it. But I'm on
the hunt for the razors. If you guys have a
razor that you prefer, if you have a razor that
you like, you have anything in that fucking fashion, please

(15:31):
recommend it to me and I'll give it a try,
because that's what I'm on the hunt for. I need
a brand new fucking razor for my fucking face so
I can get a fucking clean, crisp fucking shave. I
want to have a sharp beard line. I want my
shit to be on point. I want my shit to
fucking look good, and I want it to look good
and fucking not have to deal with some stupid, fucking

(15:51):
cheaply made razor blades. Now, it just is what it
fucking is, you know what I'm saying. So guess the
fuck what this is? The angry motherfucking dad. I want
