The November Playlist
November is by far the best month. Not only was it the month of my birth, but the weather is fantastic and the plants outside are still sporting the awesome fall leaves for the last little bit before they fall off. November is a month of reflection of the prior months of the year, as...
Crown Shaving Co. Supreme Glide
This is a tough one. The Crown Shaving Co. Supreme Glide pre-shave formula is one of the few pre-shave treatments I’ve used. That’s true partially because I am rarely sent these, and partially because I’ve never fully understood the point of pre-shave formulas in general. You may remember the name Crown Shaving Co. from their...
Tuesday Tunesday: Beach House
Beach House “Myth” Baltimore dream-pop duo Beach House has a very dreamy feel in this debut track from their new album, “Bloom.” Admittedly, I’m not as familiar with this band as I am with the blues musicians that I usually feature on the Tuesdays Tunesday segments. However, this band has a great sound to them,...
Billy Jealousy Hydroplane Shave Cream
Every once in a while I’ll get some samples in of something that is really unique, and it’s always refreshing. Billy Jealousy Hydroplane Shave Cream is exactly that. What is most unique about this is that it is silicone-based. I had no idea what that would entail, honestly, because this is the only silicone-based shave...
Chukkas: Boots for Non-boot People

We just finished our last giveaway yesterday, and now we’re starting up another one! That’s because we’re-a-CRAZY-boyssss. Anyways, what better way to celebrate the start of “Movember” than to give all you beard/mustache-growing guys some Crown Shaving Co. beard balm. This stuff will help soften and freshen your beard hair. Crown Shaving’s shave cream is fantastic,...
Some Streamlined Design Changes
If you look closely, you’ll notice that our little Electrogent underwent some changes over the last 48 hours that should streamline the experience (hence the Buick). This all happened because Wednesday was totally nuts, comparatively speaking, for the website. We had something like a 2500% increase in viewership, and the day after was about half...
Kyoku Lava Masque
There are a few things that I never thought I’d do in life that I wound up doing. On that list is going full Mrs. Doubtfire and putting an exfoliating mask on my face. However, the other day I found myself doing just that–except it didn’t involve a pie, but the Kyoku Lava Masque. Since this was...
