This week, we welcomed back long-time friend of the show, Militaria legend, astute journalist, collector, historian, and author of Combat Threads, Charles McFarlane. The first of a two-part series, we explore the beginnings of his writing career, his recent outdoors adventures, what pieces of vintage military gear still hold their own, the intersection of modern military clothing and outdoor gear, the WW2 distribution system, the "Tactical Military Industrial Complex", and a slew of other topics.

This week, the super kind, super smart Eric Langois (pronounced LANG-WAH) in the studio! We talked about the American South via Asheville, NC, novelty ties, dressing for church, inspiration, chambray, The Andover Shop, writing, Hercule Poiroit, trains, the rules of menswear, vanity and hubris, and hogshead more!
I'M RICK JAMES, NICK! This week, we had the distinct pleasure of hosting New York's Own, Nick James, but not that New York–until recently, anyway. Nick has a "chaotic" CV, to hear him tell it, so we get into it: joining the Air Force when he was 17, Meteorology, Lab Science, Moving to The Big Apple, racial ambiguity, WESTSIDE GUNN, Buffalo, Birding, Military LARPers, lacrosse, thrifting, skate culture, his intro to the menswear community, and, as always, way more!
This week we were thrilled to have a world-travelin', freewheelin', Ivy wearin' Welshman in the studio (a first for us!), Jack Whitaker. We had a great time chatting about how the contrast of growing up in the Middle East and a small village in Wales, getting into clothing through skater style, shoes as a first fashion love, tough love from friends, the differences between American and English tailoring, clothing hills we die on, Oasis, financial industry dress stereotypes, and tons of other tangents!

We gleefully welcome a born and raised Atlantan to the studio! We talk Atlanta's "unique style language," the Duality of Outkast, finding photography at an early age, the first really GOOD photo he made, the bullshit detector, redundant content "I don't wanna see the 30th guy do the Ralph tuck" Bad mouthing Todd Snyder, Muddy Waters, B*** M***** and more!
