Send us Fan MailHave you ever wondered why some men cling to their favorite styles like a beloved old sweater, refusing to let go even as fashion changes around them? Join us, your hosts David, Dr. DLH, and Jaime, as we unravel the complex and often amusing relationship between men and vanity.  From our personal tales of shaving heads and growing beards to the unexpected challenges of beard grooming, we confront the societal expectations that press upon men to maintain a certain look. Take a humorous stroll down memory lane as we recall the hair-raising trends of our teenage years. Remember those parental eye rolls and the job interview transformations?  It's all on the table, including reflections on the broccoli haircut phenomenon and the delicate dance between self-expression and societal norms. Let's face it, as norms evolve, so does the need for teenagers to balance between looking cool for their peers and presentable for potential employers.Finally, step into the world of men's fashion, where comfort meets societal acceptance. Ever noticed how some folks stick with their style like it's a lifelong partner? We share stories about the power of perception, the pleasure of sartorial choices, and the unspoken rules of dressing for respect. Whether it's the casual elegance of a cap or the timeless class of a suit, discover how clothing choices speak volumes about our identity and intentions. From flat-brim hats to lavender shirts, it's a candid conversation about changing looks and societal perceptions that promises to leave you both entertained and introspective.Support the show
