Neil Young is not just a musician, he's a genius. He's directed films, had a ridiculously successful solo career, co-founded Buffalo Springfield, played in Crosby, Stills & Nash (& Young) and is considered by many to be one of the most influential singer/songwriters of his generation. He's so good that he's ... continue reading
Right now, you're probably thinking to yourself "why the hell do I need a book on etiquette?" We thought the same thing. But this book is actually quite helpful in all kinds of awkward, and normal, social situations. It's written by Peter Post, a man that gets paid a bunch of money to fly around the world teaching ... continue reading

We've got a notebook for just about everything we want to keep track of. We've got a frayed stack of ones filled with old To-Do lists, we've got one or two for reviewing movies and we have plenty of suds-stained beer rating numbers that, at times, are illegible. Our next project is keeping a written record of all ... continue reading
It's a testament to the fun of Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! that we still remember how to defeat most of the characters. For King Hippo you deliver lots of belly shots, for Mr. Sandman you counter each punch with a straight to his chin and for Glass Joe you do whatever you damn well please. In honor of our favorite video ... continue reading
Best Made Company always presents us with a bit of a problem when they release something new. It's always something that's meant to be useful for the modern outdoorsman, but it ends up looking too nice to want to actually use. Their axes are basically works of art that you'd want to put on display and clean for an ... continue reading
For most guys, dinner isn't something that involves cooking. It's ordered off a menu (bar, drive-thru or otherwise), probably includes a beer and, most likely, isn't all that good for you. It's fine every once in a while, but it's not the greatest idea to make a daily occurrence. Mad Hungry was written by Martha ... continue reading

We might be in the middle of a period where men care about the way they look, but it's a renaissance more than anything else. Classic workwear, sports and military apparel--all good things from the past--are the backbone of what this revival is built-in, and for good reason. The cut, detailing and styling of all of ... continue reading
There's an understanding when you display classic pin-ups on you wall. It says, "Yes, I like looking at women, but I'm also a sophisticated gentleman who often sips cognac from an expensive snifter." Bunny Yeager, one of the more celebrated photographers in the pin-up world, compiled quite a collection of scantily-clad ... continue reading
Cooking isn't easy. If it was, we'd all have our own TV shows on Food Network instead of there being a show about finding the next greatest person in the kitchen. (Total aside: why isn't there a grilled cheese show? We'd settle for Iron Chef: Grilled Cheese.) But cooking isn't as easy as everyone with a sous-chef makes ... continue reading
At first glance, The Gentleman's Guide to Cocktails looks like it could have been left lying around on the set of Mad Men. We can only assume that that was intentional, because the only thing that the people on the set of Mad Men seem to love more than drama, women and cigarettes is booze. Alfred Tong handpicked more ... continue reading
As guys, we don't like to admit when we don't know how to fix things. If we break something, a large portion of our population would whip out the Elmers glue we used in kindergarten. It's time to man up and admit we don't know how to solve everything (just almost everything), and toss down a few bucks on The Art of ... continue reading
U.S. Navy Seals are second to none when it comes to elite special forces. Learning anything about survival skills from a Navy Seal would be like getting personal basketball lessons from Jordan. And that's exactly what The U.S. Navy Seal Survival Handbook is all about. Decorated Seal Team Six member Don Mann runs through ... continue reading
Every once in a while two things collide to create something wondrous. It happened when the first Oreo was dunked in milk, it happened when someone decided to add a bit of peanut butter to their jelly sandwich, and it's happening again now. The Craft Beerds book brings together the world of luscious facial hair ... continue reading
