G. Bruce Boyer, The Godfather of Menswear (Rerun)

If you're still in that "New year, I'm going to educate myself" moment. I can't think of any other episode as crucial as this one.

Mr. G. Bruce Boyer.

Bruce is an authority on classic menswear and men's fashion; he was an editor at Town & Country and Esquire and has written about clothing and menswear for over 40 years. From Fred Astaire, Gary Cooper, Duke of Windsor, Bruce is the source.

One other thing I want to mention, as you listen to this, Bruce is just the most genuine real deal guy. He's no bullshit. Yeah, he knows about cloth weight and all that stuff, but he also understands that at the end of the day, what matters is how you feel. I genuinely love this guy and am privileged to call him a friend.

We recorded this a few years ago, but I relistened to it and was like, dang. It's all bangers.

This episode was previously recorded in 2018
