Monday Morning Mailbag and More

On today’s Second Cup, we settle into a mid‑August Monday with a little talk about vacation rhythms — including Maggard Razors taking a well‑earned break — plus some travel notes and a look at what’s new in the wet‑shaving world. Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements has both a fresh alum offering and a new shave soap that caught our attention, so we’ll pour that second cup and catch up on everything happening as summer starts its slow glide toward September.

The August 17th Monday Morning Mailbag arrives with a fresh cup, a full inbox, and plenty of mid‑August momentum. Viewers have sent in terrific questions, helpful tips, and a number of Reuben Awards comments that add a fun extra layer to this week’s show. Settle in, sip your coffee, and let’s dive into what everyone’s been talking about. So let’s talk a little wet shaving and a few other things.===Topics:00:00:00 Introduction00:04:52 Viewer Morning Shaving Tip00:08:55 Shave Den Visit00:12:42 Reminders00:14:26 Giveaway Updates00:18:51 Ohio Wet Shavers Meetup00:20:59 Refill00:49:28 New Wet Shaving Gear Intro00:49:39 Shave Soap Cannisters00:53:30 Barbers Alchemy Spray On After Shave00:54:33 Rolason LG90 Razor01:00:09 Razor Blades01:05:28 New Wet Shaving Gear Closing01:05:40 Questins & Comments Intro01:05:55 Artisan Coffee01:08:51 Curly Razor Report01:11:04 Traditional Wet Shave Question01:14:50 Closing01:15:22 Last Laugh01:15:39 Double Take===Links to things discussed in today's show:The official Monday Morning Mailbag Coffee Mug: https://georgetoon-shaving.printify.me/product/16969962/george-monday-morning-mailbag-ceramic-mug-11oz-15oz===SpotPrints3D - Etsy - Official George Boom!

The Second Cup for Monday, August 10, 2026 settles in with a fresh mug and a few good stories from the weekend—everything from new offerings at Phoenix Shaving and Subtle Art Soap Co. to a wild summer drive home through torrential rain and double lightning bolts that lit up the night sky. After making it back safe and sound, it’s a pleasure to sit down with everyone this morning, share a cup of coffee, and ease into the week together.

August rolls on, and there’s still plenty of summer to enjoy as we settle in for this week’s 3MB. The mornings have that easy, sun‑washed feel, perfect for a fresh pour in the Peanuts Snoopy‑and‑Linus mug while we catch up, share a few laughs, and ease into the day. We’re right in that sweet spot of the season — warm afternoons, long evenings, and just enough breeze to remind you summer’s still got some miles left. Grab your coffee, pull up a chair, and let’s enjoy this bright August stretch together. So, let's talk a little wet shaving and a few other things.===Topics:00:00:00 Introduction00:04:00 Viewer Morning Shaving Tip00:09:44 Shave Den Visit00:14:47 Reminders00:16:31 Giveaway Updates00:21:11 Ohio Wet Shaver Meetup - Early Word00:22:38 Refill00:47:04 New Wet Shaving Gear Intro00:47:15 Feather Straight Razor00:50:01 :Lord Cool Blades00:51:41 Whispering Scents Barbershop Shave soap00:56:00 New Wet Shaving Gear Closing00:56:12 Questions & Comments00:56:27 Meetups in Kentucky?00:58:16 What Razor is Curly Using?00:59:26 Closing00:59:57 Last Laugh01:00:15 Double Take===Links to things discussed in today's show:The official Monday Morning Mailbag Coffee Mug: https://georgetoon-shaving.printify.me/product/16969962/george-monday-morning-mailbag-ceramic-mug-11oz-15oz===SpotPrints3D - Etsy - Official George Boom!

On this early‑August Second Cup, we settle in with that unmistakable “deep summer” mood—warm mornings, long evenings, and plenty of wet‑shaving chatter to go around. We catch up on what’s new from Phoenix Shaving, Hendrix Classics & Co., Soap Commander, and OneBlade, talk a little coffee and weekend weather, and ease into the week with the kind of relaxed conversation that fits perfectly with a fresh mug and a slow Monday start. Pour that second cup and join me—there’s a lot to enjoy as we head into August together.

Welcome to the August 3rd Monday Morning Mailbag, where we’re settling into the dog days of summer and enjoying that last easy stretch before the season begins to wind down. It’s the time of year when the mornings feel slow, the afternoons run warm, and a Lake Erie coffee mug on the table hints at weekends filled with sunshine, water, and a little well‑earned fun. So let’s ease into this August mailbag together and see what’s floated in.===Topics:00:00:00 Introduction00:04:06 Viewer Morning Shaving Tip00:08:48 George Framed00:09:21 Shave Den Visit00:16:51 Reminders00:18:35 Lathered!00:20:13 Refill00:38:49 New Wet Shaving Gear Intro00:39:01 Vikings Blade Meiji Adjustable Razor - 202600:50:08 Razorock Smile Razor00:54:47 Razor Blades01:00:32 New Wet Shaving Gear Closing01:00:44 Questions & Comments Intro01:00:59 What is Non-Traditional Wet Shaving?01:02:52 Fatboy and Slim - How to Tell Them Apart01:06:18 Maggard Razors Shipping01:06:59 Some Online Shaving Events01:08:10 15 Vanished Barber Secrets - YouTube Video01:08:42 Closing01:09:13 Last Laugh01:09:31 Double Take===Links to things discussed in today's show:The official Monday Morning Mailbag Coffee Mug: https://georgetoon-shaving.printify.me/product/16969962/george-monday-morning-mailbag-ceramic-mug-11oz-15oz===SpotPrints3D - Etsy - Official George Boom!

As we ease into the final days of July, today’s Second Cup settles into that familiar midsummer rhythm—slow mornings, bright skies (a little ovedrcast here, at the monent), and a little space to breathe before August comes rushing in.

So pour that second cup and settle in—there’s plenty to enjoy as we kick off July’s last stretch.

On today’s Second Cup, we settle in with a fresh pour and a full slate of midsummer topics. We touch on the surprisingly early return‑to‑school dates appearing on calendars, look at new releases from Phoenix Shaving, an extension update from Razor Emporium, and the latest news from Henson Shaving. There’s also an article from Stars and Stripes that caught our eye, along with a terrific book recommendation to add to your summer reading stack. It’s a great way to start the week together.

There’s something special about easing into a mid‑July Monday with a warm mug in hand and the porch waking up around you, and that’s exactly the spirit of today’s Monday Morning Mailbag. We’ll take our time with a fresh Viewer Morning Shaving Tip, enjoy a laid‑back Shave Den Visit that fits right in with the summer breeze, and check in on the Refill segment for familiar faces and helpful follow‑ups. Add a look at some of the new gear lined up for the week ahead, and you’ve got the kind of slow, comfortable Monday that pairs perfectly with porch coffee and good company. So grab a cup of coffee, settle in, and let’s talk a little more wet shaving.===Topics:00:00 Introduction03:25 Viewer Morning Shaving Tip09:41 Shave Den Visit12:48 Reminders14:32 Giveaway Update16:18 Refill37:54 New Wet Shaving Gear Intro38:06 Yates Merica and PAA Original DOC 40:22: Two razors Under $16.0043:49: Tappy Razor45:28 Adjustable 34C46:55 PAA Sneak Peek47:59 New Wet Shaving Gear Closing48:13 Questions & Comments Intro48:29 Shaving Brushes53:12 Feather AS-D2 Razor56:09 Closing56:41 Last Laugh56:59 Double Take===Links to things discussed in today's show:The official Monday Morning Mailbag Coffee Mug: https://georgetoon-shaving.printify.me/product/16969962/george-monday-morning-mailbag-ceramic-mug-11oz-15oz===SpotPrints3D - Etsy - Official George Boom!
