Ben is one of the more interesting people I've had the opportunity to interact with over the years. His style is a strong blend of 19th century cowboy with modern skater and he somehow pulls it off in a way that's interesting without looking like a costume.

In this episode Ben and I talk about how his style has evolved, what it's like to wear unique and interesting pieces, how his career and family have impacted his approach to his...

It seems that more and more men are experiencing a crisis of identity.

We know we want to be better, but we don't know exactly what that looks like, how to make it work in our contemporary world, or what the long-lasting implications of it are.

In this episode we explore two key things I believe every man needs in his life in order to live up to his full potential.

In order to understand the relationship between appearance and masculinity we need to know what it is to be a man.

And, while most of the world tries to tie up masculinity into moral virtues, my guest today articulately makes the point that masculinity is amoral - that regardless of how good or bad a person you are - whether or not you can be deemed a man is on a separate scale.

Jack and his work have largely influenced my own appr...

If you and I had an evil plan to take over the world and we wanted complete and total domination, how would we approach altering men's relationships with their clothing and appearance?

In today's episode I outline my plan and it looks eerily similar to what we see around us today

Having surrounded myself with men who make a living online, one of the most common things I hear is your website/Instagram/YouTube/whatever is your business card.

Implied in that statement is the idea that you need to be putting yourself online and creating a "personal brand" in order to stand out and succeed in the 21st century

But is that really true, or can you still do things the old way?

Have you ever noticed that most men look like they're about 10 or 20 years behind the times?

Like they're still wearing what was popular on TV in the late 90's and early 00's?

In today's episode I talk about the two main reasons this happens, how it will likely happen to you, and why it's a problem.

And no, I don't tell you you need to jump on the latest trend to avoid the problem either.

On today's show I bring on my friend Goldmund Unleashed.

Goldmund is a photographer, author, and all-around interesting vagabond who's lived more life in the past few years than the majority of men will experience in a decade.

In our conversation we discuss how his style has evolved, what it does for him as an artist and an introvert, and how he's leveraged it to better success in his endeavors.

Whether you like Nike's latest ad with Colin Kaepernick, you can learn a lot from how Nike chooses to court controversy, embrace polarization, and unapologetically brand itself.

All of which are components to dressing better than average.

In this episode I step away from the moral outrage of the ad itself and talk about the principles of branding and you can apply them in your own life.

In May 2018, Fortnite, a free-to-play video game, generated $318 Million dollars in revenue from in-game purchases.

What separates them from all the other games following a similar structure is that the purchases had absolutely zero impact on game play - no extra lives, special moves, or power weapons.

Every purchase was for purely cosmetic purposes.

In today's episode I break down the three things the players are signaling to them...

This episode discusses both the mechanics of dressing well while carrying a firearm, along with the reasons I personally choose to carry a weapon. I understand that this is a controversial subject and one that can lead to a heated discussion in the comments. I don't need to defend myself. I may engage in a few comments to clarify some confusion, but I have no interest in engaging in an online battle about gun control. As part of to...

This episode breaks down why some of the best sartorial icons in modern cinema are not the heroes, but the villains. I talk about the top three best-dressed villains in all three of the Style Archetypes and provide contrast between this concept and an older post about not dressing like a cartoon character.

This episode was based on a revisitation of my September 2012 post Dressing the (Smaller)Man. Being as I'm six feet tall, I can only approach this topic from a hypothetical perspective. So I decided to bring on two of my good friends who are both style experts and on the shorter end of the spectrum. Aaron Marino runs I Am Alpha M (http://iamalpham.com/), a hugely popular men's style site and YouTube channel. Aaron puts out daily vi...
