A $5 milkshake seems almost quaint now, but in 1994 that was a handful of bills for milk and ice cream. The $5 shake is also something that entered the American lexicon with Pulp Fiction, Quentin Tarantino's iconic film, in one of the best scenes in cinematic history. Babish teaches you how to make your own milkshake — but it's going to cost more than five bucks.
In 1983, a racing record was set that many thought couldn't be broken: 32 hours and seven minutes from the East Coast of the United States to the West Coast.

That record fell in 2007, and Apex: The Secret Race Across America documents how it all happened.
It seemed to come out of nowhere and overnight it was one of the most popular hot sauces in the world.

Here's the story of David Tran, who made Sriracha a household name.
Augustinus Bader's The Retinol Serum rethinks traditional retinol treatments with a formula designed to deliver visible skin renewal without the irritation that often comes with high-performance vitamin A products.

Duke Cannon's Father's Day lineup leans into the brand's familiar formula of oversized grooming essentials, military-inspired packaging, and unapologetically rugged scent profiles, but beneath the tongue-in-cheek attitude sits a genuinely practical collection of daily-use upgrades.

Everything arrives wrapped in Duke Cannon's signature blue-collar aesthetic, balancing humor with legitimately solid formulations made for hard-working skin, dry hands, and low-maintenance routines. It is less about reinventing grooming and more about turning everyday basics into something that feels giftable, durable, and distinctly masculine.

The modern sneaker rotation demands versatility. One day starts with a flight across the country, the next with a coffee stop across town. The Nike Zoom Vomero 5 thrives in both worlds, combining the technical complexity of an early-2000s running shoe with the understated versatility of an everyday staple. Layered mesh, synthetic suede, and plastic accents create a distinctive honeycomb-like look, while Zoom Air cushioning and a foam midsole provide comfort for long days on your feet. Originally built for performance, the Vomero 5 has become one of Nike's most adaptable silhouettes equally comfortable navigating airport terminals, city streets, and everything in between.
Built for long days that start in the surf and end somewhere near the bar, Brixton's latest trunk lineup balances heritage styling with modern performance without leaning too hard into either. The Blitz Boardshort is the more aggressive option, a lightweight stretch trunk cut from quick-dry polyester and spandex with a water-repellent finish, invisible zip pocket, drainage eyelet, and bold graphic treatments that push beyond the standard washed-out beach palette. Available in both 19-inch and 21-inch outseams, it is engineered to move cleanly from paddle-outs to pool decks with minimal fuss. Countering it is the Classic Trunk 17", a stripped-back staple with clean lines, minimal branding, and an easy shorter cut that feels rooted in vintage surf culture while still delivering dependable quick-dry performance. Together, the collection hits the sweet spot between technical utility and everyday wearability, exactly where Brixton tends to do its best work.
