The Art and Making of The Dark Knight Trilogy is exactly what you think it is: a behind the scenes creation story about three of our favorite movies from ... continue reading
When Pamela Anderson comes before you, you know you're successful. Get your minds out of the gutter.

We might argue the point that, after last night, Breaking Bad has higher ratings than Game of Thrones (magnets, man!), but there's no denying the fact that the show is awesome. It's so hugely grandiose that it's difficult to follow at times, but hopefully this new tome, Inside HBO's Game of Thrones, will shed some ... continue reading
You know that feeling you get when you're leaving the theater after seeing an action movie? You're as badass as the main character and you just can't wait for someone to try and mess with you, right? Seriously, that can't just be us. If you do, and you're planning to see The Dark Knight Rises ASAP, you'll probably ... continue reading
Mick Jagger is an icon. A personal idol. A man that refuses to wear anything but jeans and a t-shirt to the office and often refuses to wear anything at all. There are countless reasons why any boy growing up wanted to be Mick Jagger, and we're not just talking about the purported four THOUSAND women he has slept with ... continue reading
There are a lot of things worth knowing about beer other than what bottles require an opener, how to consume the largest quantity possible and the intricacies of the beer pong rules. You don't need to know about the relationship of hops to barley that's used to create the world's third most popular drink (it's fun ... continue reading
Zombies (the ones that walk real slow and don’t actually eat people’s faces off) are going to be a part of popular culture forever.

This cookbook is the best of the best in the world of food trucks ... continue reading
Thanks to Bill Murray, we actually have a favorite minor league baseball team. The actor recently ran and slid all over the tarp during a rain delay at a Charleston RiverDogs baseball game. It not only made us care about watching a Single-A ball game, but it was yet another example of why Bill Murray is the coolest ... continue reading
Cancer sucks, beards don't. We think that would be a good tagline for the latest book from photographer Justin James Muir. A Book of Beards contains 86 shots of the most awesomely gritty portraits of dudes with some length on their whiskers. It's a tribute to those who fought through the phases of itchiness to achieve ... continue reading
Bicycles are relatively simple machines. They might only consist of two wheels, two pedals, gears, a seat and a set of handlebars, but when they break down mid ride you might still be left scratching your head about what went wrong. Rather than trying to deal with 3g service (or lack thereof) for Google, or the technical ... continue reading
Bikes will never not be cool. (Unless it's a recumbent bike because those aren't cool.) It doesn't matter if you use yours for transportation or just to exercise, it's cool. Picking between fixies, hybrids and BMX bikes is like trying to figure out which kid you love the most because they're all cool in their own right. ... continue reading
Chef Adam Perry Lang is the barbecue equivalent of Enzo Ferrari. When Lang sits down and takes the time to teach you how to be a better grillmaster you can be damn sure that the techniques will result in plenty of people kissing the cook.

Admit it, somewhere in your closet is an Ab Rocker or a P90X DVD or—god forbid - a Shake Weight. We wanna be fit and we happen to be suckers for a well-designed ad campaign ("Who cares if it looks like he's playing with himself? Check out those arms!"). We'll fall for a fitness plan that seems simple or simply ... continue reading
