How many times have you been bouncing between the yacht and the hotel heliport asking yourself, “Where exactly do I put my cognac glass? Is there room for my bike, golf clubs, and DJ equipment in the back?” I mean really, it’s like these helicopter designers have never dated a couple of 6-foot+ supermodels who just wanted [...]

If you’re under 30, you’re likely off to Coachella this weekend to hang out in the sun with 150,000 other hot, sweaty, possibly drugged-up hipsters wandering around talking about set lists and complaining about security. Not that there’s anything wrong with that (I spent three days at the same venue for Phish’s epic Festival 8 last [...]

Let’s face it- as guys we’re prone to be dirty, sweaty and smelly down there. This isn’t going to help your dating life any and the old self confidence may suffer from that “not so fresh feeling”. It happens to the best of us. Enter DÜDCHE. Over the last 10 years they’ve developed the ultimate [...]

We like to joke about winning the lottery here at ESM, but what do you do when you’re actually worth 10+ billion dollars? Easy- you commission mega-yachts that would make Ernst Stavro Blofeld green with envy. In the case of Paul Allen, his THIRD mega-yacht is outfitted with the following: Space for two (!) Helicopters Full-size swimming [...]

We talk a lot about consumer products here at ESM but we rarely talk about the maintenance and care needed to keep your lifestyle looking factory fresh. Enter 3M’s Scotchgard Paint Protection Film, otherwise known as a “Clear Bra” Scotchgard™ Paint Protection Film maintains the beauty and integrity of automotive finishes on vulnerable exterior surfaces [...]

We haven’t spent a lot of time on cycling here at ESM, and for good reason: it’s an elitist sport that can be wildly discouraging to a newbie. But we’re going to change that idea right now. Enter Cyclocross. Part bike race, demolition derby and obstacle course, this is a no-holds-barred-anything-goes-just-get-your-ass-across-the-finish-line sport that we can [...]
DREAM OFF: Ferrari 458 Italia Configurator

Filed under Dream Garage, Things That Move Us
Being a relatively quiet Thursday morning, I’m throwing down the gauntlet to the other ESM members to post up their version of the 458 Italia via Ferrari’s very easy-to-use configurator, which can be found here. Top Gear posted a similar challenge earlier today–to make the ugliest car you can–but being who we are, “ugly” never [...]
MOVIES: I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell
Bucking the trend of dumbed-down guy movies, Tucker Max’s I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell (based on his best selling book) is a surprisingly smart and emotionally astute take on the relationships between men and women. Wait, did I really just say that? Let’s start off with the negative: If there’s one big flaw [...]
MOVIES: Two Lane Blacktop
I’m not really sure what to say if you haven’t seen this movie already- Monte Hellman’s 1971 film about two 20 -somethings racing across the country is rooted in a corny premise that couldn’t get made today- but there is no denying that it appeals to the rugged individualist in us all. It’s the Easy [...]
DREAM GARAGE: Lambo Reventon Roadster

About a year ago Lamborghini unveiled the limited production Reventon, all 20 of which were spoken for mere minutes after the announcement. Well, hold onto your hats (literally) because they just released pics of the roadster version. Yes, this car is essentially a Murcielago in a ridiculous carbon fiber body and with a little more [...]
