    Pitti Uomo, the largest menswear trade show in the world, is coming up this month. Brands from around the world will show off their newest collections of suits, shoes and elevated basics. But many of the most stylish men aren't wearing new clothes. Vintage and secondhand fashion is having an explosive moment, and menswear content creators are particularly in love with high-quality vintage goods from years past when clothes were made to last. Not only do menswear brands have to compete with each other, but they also have to compete with the decades' worth of vintage clothing still on the market. Why buy the latest from Corso Mille when there are mountains of vintage Ralph Lauren available on eBay? On the Glossy Podcast this week, we spoke with Albert Muzquiz, the menswear writer and content creator better known as @edgyalbert, about exactly this phenomenon. Muzquiz said menswear enthusiasts tend to obsess about quality, and while there are brands making good clothes now, they're often the exception rather than the norm. "There are the lowest common denominator brands that are pushing everyone further down," Muzquiz said. "And then there are these American companies controlled by private equity that have no soul or substance. And when you touch good fabric, it's like night and day. You can tell the difference. But this is why the JFK Jr. trend happened. There were eras where basically any clothes from the department store were that good."

    Use code "SCI" at ARENACLUB.COMA massive 10-million-card backlog has forced PSA to officially shut down all value-level submission tiers, effective immediately. Today on Cards on the Table, T-Pot, Scotty B, and Carter break down the shocking news and analyze exactly what this means for the hobby. With regular service ($79.99) now the cheapest available option, we discuss the ripple effect this will have on box prices, modern "rip and flip" strategies, and the vintage card market.Plus, we cover the rest of the week's biggest hobby news, including the record-breaking $5.11 million private sale of the Victor Wembanyama Prizm Black 1/1 (the "Black Curtain"), and the ongoing packaging issues with eBay's Authenticity Guarantee program.In this episode, we discuss:The PSA Shutdown: Analyzing the 10-million-card backlog driven by the explosive growth of TCGs (Pokémon and One Piece). We discuss whether PSA's massive expansion will actually solve the issue, how this completely neutralizes the value of the Collectors Club membership, and if alternative grading companies like Beckett, SGC, and CGC can handle the overflow.SGC's Dwindling Market Share: Why SGC's volume is down 70% year-over-year, and what Collectors' acquisition means for the future of the "Tuxedo" slab and the vintage market.Wemby's $5.1 Million Record: The 2023 Panini Prizm Victor Wembanyama Black 1/1 just sold privately for $5.11 million. We compare this massive sale to the Aaron Judge Superfractor Auto, debate if the NBA market is overhyped compared to baseball, and touch on the controversy surrounding the use of Kurt's Card Care prior to the card's grading.eBay Authenticity Flaws: Why are high-end raw cards arriving from the eBay Authenticity Guarantee program sliding out of their semi-rigid holders? We debate simple fixes and why the program is still a massive net positive for the hobby despite packaging flaws.How do you think PSA's shutdown of value submissions will impact the sports card market over the next 12 months?

    Was Dave Macklovitch right about the Hedi Boy revival? Is Hedi Slimane's skinny-jeans-and-leather-jacket universe bigger than fashion? And what happens to musicians when AI can make the record but not the room?Sol and Michael sit down with the podcast's favorite well-dressed unc, Dave Macklovitch of Chromeo, for his second episode and a proper apology tour after the 2025 Hedi Slimane craze proved him right. The trio explore the Hedi Boy phenomenon, Celine skinny jeans, Dior Homme codes, Saint Laurent leather jackets, indie sleaze, Grailed resellers, archive fashion, and why the looks that last are never just clothes—they come with music, photography, nightlife, diet, attitude, community, and a whole lifestyle system.Further, Dave connects that idea to Chromeo, explaining how the band built an 80s funk world through contrast rather than costume, why charisma still matters in the age of Suno AI and AI-generated music, and how the “human avatar” may become even more important as the back end gets automated.They also discuss Kid Cudi's “Day 'N' Nite,” Fool's Gold Records, the birth of modern emo rap, Lil Peep, Yung Lean, Clams Casino, Lil Uzi Vert, Geese, DJ Sneak, Daft Punk, Radiohead, Kanye West, A$AP Rocky, and the strange grace we give artists after their best albums.On the fashion side, they talk Aimé Leon Dore as integrated fashion, Supreme and Dior Homme coffee machines, Rick Owens lifers, Tom Ford's symbolic universe, Haider Ackermann, Berluti cowboy boots, Soshiotsuki, Anthony Vaccarello, Demna at Gucci, Kozaburo, how to interact with Thom Browne on a budget, Balmain by Christophe Decarnin, moto denim, Saint Laurent patina, eBay archive finds, vintage Abercrombie, CDLP, DEVOA, Issey Miyake, and why brands that sell a world—not just a garment—keep winning. We hope you enjoy this one as much as we did.Questions answered in this episode:- Why is Hedi Slimane influential?- What is a Hedi Boy?- Are skinny jeans coming back?- Why are Celine skinny jeans popular again?- What is integrated fashion?- Why do fashion brands sell lifestyle now?- What makes a brand universe successful?- How do music and fashion influence each other?- Why do Supreme, CELINE, Dior Homme, Saint Laurent, Rick Owens, and Tom Ford create such strong cultural identities?- How will AI music change musicians?- Will AI replace artists?- Why does charisma matter in live performance?- Why was Kid Cudi's “Day 'n' Nite” important?- Why is A$AP Rocky considered a fashion artist?- What makes archive fashion valuable?- How do Grailed, eBay, and Discogs shape taste?- What brands are exciting right now? Lots of love!Sol---Episode Tags: Dave Macklovitch, Dave 1, Chromeo, Pair of Kings, Hedi Slimane, Hedi Boys, Celine, Dior Homme, Saint Laurent, integrated fashion, fashion podcast, menswear podcast, archive fashion, indie sleaze, AI music, Suno AI, Kid Cudi, Day N Nite, Fool's Gold Records, A$AP Rocky, Rick Owens, Tom Ford, Haider Ackermann, Demna Gucci, Kozaburo, Soshiotsuki, Thom Browne, Balmain Decarnin, Grailed, vintage menswear#fashionpodcast #chromeo #hedislimane #celine #saintlaurent #diorSol Thompson and Michael Smith explore the world and subcultures of fashion, interviewing creators, personalities, and industry insiders to highlight the new vanguard of the fashion world.

    This is the 2nd episode of a 2-part series about a case where security goons from eBay travelled across the country to stalk and harass a husband-wife journalist duo. If you haven't listened to part 1 yet, you probably should. We published it on May 19, 2026. For over two decades, the pair have been publishing EcommerceBytes, a respected trade publication for eBay sellers. But in 2019, someone started harassing them. It began with a spray painted fence, then quickly escalated to death threats and fetal pigs and a mysterious van outside their house. Eventually, they discovered that eBay's own security team was behind it all, with the campaign put into motion by then-CEO Devin Wenig. This bizarre and frightening story is a cautionary tale about the rise of private armies. It starts in San Francisco, takes us to the small community of Natick, Massachusetts, and ultimately takes TANGOTI listeners right back to Madison Square Garden. Buckle up.

    EPISODE DESCRIPTION A shocking new figure buried inside a weekend report is fueling outrage nationwide: investigators now estimate that at least $3 trillion in taxpayer money may have been improperly paid out through government programs since 2003 — and officials believe the real number could be even higher. This episode dives into claims from the Trump administration and supporters of JD Vance that decades of weak oversight, expanded COVID-era policies, and failures at the state level opened the door to massive fraud in welfare and Medicare programs. The discussion explores how anti-fraud technology used by banks and companies like eBay and Amazon could potentially transform government systems, why some states are resisting oversight efforts, and what the findings could mean for taxpayers moving forward. The conversation also examines political backlash surrounding fraud investigations, welfare reform debates, and growing concerns over the long-term impact on the national debt.

    Encontrar marcas rentables para vender en Amazon ya no depende únicamente de grandes distribuidores o de tener contactos privilegiados. Muchos vendedores hoy descubren oportunidades directamente analizando el mercado y entendiendo cómo trabajan ciertas marcas dentro de la plataforma. Robert Payares, experto en Amazon, Walmart y eBay, explica cómo acceder a marcas exclusivas con precios accesibles y convertirlas en oportunidades reales de negocio dentro del e-commerce. Uno de los mayores errores de quienes comienzan es pensar que las mejores marcas son inalcanzables o que solo trabajan con vendedores grandes. Sin embargo, Robert asegura que muchas oportunidades aparecen observando cuidadosamente el propio marketplace. "Cuando vas vendiendo te encuentras marcas, a veces revisando los listing de los vendedores de tu competencia", comenta. Analizar qué productos venden otros vendedores y detectar marcas con poca presencia optimizada en Amazon puede abrir puertas que la mayoría pasa por alto. Muchas marcas, especialmente latinoamericanas, ya exportan productos a Estados Unidos, pero no tienen una estrategia fuerte dentro de Amazon: "He conocido marcas del nicho de belleza que están en Latinoamérica, exportan aquí a Estados Unidos y entendí que no le prestan tanta atención a Amazon, sino que hacen una venta orgánica". Esto representa una oportunidad enorme para vendedores que entienden cómo funciona el marketplace y pueden ofrecer valor a esas empresas mejorando su presencia, posicionamiento y ventas dentro de la plataforma. El acercamiento con las marcas también requiere estrategia. No se trata simplemente de enviar mensajes masivos preguntando precios. Robert destaca que "tienes que contactarlos con un motivo válido para iniciar la conversación con las marcas". Mostrar conocimiento del producto, entender cómo funciona Amazon y explicar de qué manera puedes ayudarlos a crecer dentro del marketplace genera mucha más confianza y aumenta las posibilidades de conseguir acuerdos comerciales. Otro punto importante es saber identificar marcas con potencial real de crecimiento. Muchas veces los vendedores se enfocan en empresas demasiado pequeñas o sin suficiente movimiento comercial. Para Robert, una buena referencia es clara: "Yo recomiendo que la marca venda entre 15 y 20 mil dólares al mes". Ese nivel de ventas permite encontrar negocios que ya validaron su producto en el mercado, pero que todavía tienen espacio para escalar dentro de Amazon sin enfrentar niveles extremos de competencia. La rentabilidad también debe analizarse antes de invertir dinero en inventario. No basta con encontrar una marca interesante; es fundamental calcular correctamente los márgenes y costos reales del producto. "Si quieres detectar buena utilidad en un producto tienes que usar una calculadora, como SellerAmp". Herramientas como SellerAmp o SmartScout permiten analizar fees de Amazon, márgenes estimados, costos operativos y potencial de ganancias antes de tomar una decisión de compra. Detrás de muchas oportunidades en Amazon no necesariamente hay productos desconocidos, sino marcas que todavía no saben aprovechar completamente el marketplace. Saber detectarlas, contactarlas correctamente y analizar sus números puede convertirse en una ventaja enorme para quienes buscan construir un negocio rentable dentro del ecosistema de Amazon.

    Too many options isn't freedom. It's paralysis dressed up as possibility. David Epstein, investigative journalist and author of the bestseller Range, is back with a counterintuitive idea: the constraints you've been avoiding might be the exact thing that unlocks your best work. His new book, Inside the Box: How Constraints Make Us Better, makes the case that boundaries don't limit you. They focus you. You'll hear how a company in the early nineties assembled arguably the greatest collection of tech talent ever, had unlimited resources, and still collapsed under the weight of its own options. Meanwhile, two people who left that company with small, focused projects built eBay and the Palm Pilot. The lesson isn't about talent. It's about the bounding box. David introduces his BCS Press Release framework: batch your work so you're not toggling all day, make your commitments visible so you can actually subtract the right ones, use satisficing rules to make decisions without drowning in choices, and write the press release before you start anything, so you know what matters before you're too deep in to see clearly. This conversation also gets personal. David talks about the childhood arm injury that ended his baseball career and pushed him toward running and memory techniques he still uses today. He opens up about forgiveness, about the grudges that are hard to shake, and about the Harvard Study of Adult Development, the longest study of human happiness ever conducted, which concluded that happiness is love. Real relationships. Mutual obligation. The stuff you keep forgetting to schedule.

In this milestone episode, we reflect on our journey, from early technical struggles and unreleased episodes to building a community that documents real reselling life. We react to a viral video where an experienced reseller calls out influencers and podcasters for “ruining” the industry by sharing sources, purchase prices, and tips. Should we move in silence and gatekeep everything, or keep educating while protecting key honey holes?We break down her arguments, share our own experiences with hate comments, and discuss when sharing helps versus when it hurts the reselling space. Then we go behind the scenes at the massive downtown Seattle Goodwill — the main hub for 23 stores — to see how donations are processed, how they separate items for online sales vs store floor, and the jaw-dropping AI pricing system that scans items in real time and sets “good/better/best” prices automatically. We also cover their eBay-style online operation, cross-listing, authentication, and what this means for resellers going forward.Plus, we share our latest Hustles of the Week, including incredible thrift and estate sale flips like vintage Rainbow Brite dolls, Jordana eyeliner pencils, sealed voice recorders, Portland Trailblazers vintage shirts, and bulk rubber weight plates scored under 50 cents a pound. We talk adaptation, why reselling is far from dead, and how we must evolve as the game changes.We also spotlight MyResellerGenie — our favorite bookkeeping software made by resellers for resellers.

    The Conner & Smith Show

    Welcome back to The Conner & Smith Show!This week, Ryan Dean Halbrook and Stephen conclude their James Dean trilogy series with George Stevens' epic 1956 masterpiece Giant — the final film James Dean completed before his tragic death.Widely considered one of the great American epics, Giant explores wealth, power, racism, class, family legacy, and the changing identity of Texas across generations. Ryan and Stephen dive deep into Dean's fascinating and unconventional performance as Jett Rink, alongside the legendary work of Elizabeth Taylor, Rock Hudson, and the film's extraordinary ensemble cast.They also discuss the massive scope of the production, Dean's transformation across decades of the character's life, the film's themes of prejudice and social change, and why Giant remains one of the most ambitious and important Hollywood films of the 1950s.As the final chapter in Dean's short but legendary career, Giant stands as both a cinematic landmark and a haunting glimpse of what might have been.If you love classic Hollywood, sweeping American dramas, film history, and larger-than-life performances, this episode is for you.

    Recently, I have been selling clothing and shoes on eBay. I have 100% positive reviews but the other day someone that I had sold something too asked to return it. Her reasoning did not match up with the item she bought. I felt like she was being deceitful with her return refund. It stayed on my mind all evening and into the morning. Then while walking and listening to the Tabernacle choir, I thought about how we as human beings can sometimes be hyper focused on the small percentage of negativity. Instead of me personally looking at my positive reviews and buyers purchases that went well, I focus on one sale item that did not go desired for the buyer. We are not alone. The mind can lean toward the small minority of comments or experiences we have and drown out all the good. Join me today as I share some thoughts about this topic.

It's when you've counted yourself out so completely that you stop planning for the future and start flexing for the present. She lived it. Designer bag on one hand, past-due rent on the other. The wake-up wasn't a book or a seminar. It was staring at a Louis Vuitton bag she bought on eBay and realizing it was a mask. Something to signal "I'm fine" when she wasn't.

    This is part 1 of a 2-part arc about one of wildest tech stories I've seen in a long time. For over two decades, a husband and wife duo have been publishing EcommerceBytes, a respected trade publication for eBay sellers. But in 2019, someone started harassing them. It began with a spray painted fence, then quickly escalated to death threats and fetal pigs and a mysterious van outside their house. Eventually, they discovered that eBay's own security team was behind it all, with the campaign put into motion by then-CEO Devin Wenig. This bizarre and frightening story is a cautionary tale about the rise of private armies. It starts in San Francisco, takes us to the small community of Natick, Massachusetts, and ultimately takes TANGOTI listeners right back to Madison Square Garden. Buckle up.

    What if you could make money this weekend helping people clear out their homes without buying a single thing yourself? Estate sales have been around for decades, but a newer, fully online version of this business makes it faster, safer, and more efficient for everyone involved. And it's wide open for someone willing to learn the ropes. Sue Antinoro (Bird's Nest Auctions) has spent the last 10-20 years in consignment, eBay, estate sales, and auction sales. Today she runs AuctionMastery.com, where she's built a flexible side hustle turning other people's belongings into cash — and helping families get through one of the most overwhelming transitions in life. Her most recent auction? A two-part sale for a house packed floor to ceiling with items. The total gross: $17,000. Her cut: around $8,000 for a couple weekends' worth of work. Tune in to Episode 739 of the Side Hustle Show to learn: how the online estate auction model works and why it beats traditional in-person sales step-by-step how to photograph, catalog, and list items to maximize bids how to find clients and build referral partnerships in your area Full Show Notes: $5k in a Weekend Selling Other People's Stuff New to the Show?

TikTok is testing an ad-free tier in the UK because, somehow, ads weren't already enough punishment. Venmo is finally realizing that public payment feeds are insane. There's a Wikipedia clone made entirely of AI hallucinations, and an iPad arm mount sturdy enough to survive the upcoming climate wars.AT THE LIBRARY wraps up with Clowns (First Contact), Dungeon Crawler Carl, the demise of another Goodreads competitor, Kindle alternatives for those trying to escape Amazon's panopticon, and a reminder that Douglas Adams has now been gone for 25 years, which remains, in the immortal words of the man himself, widely regarded as a bad move.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.Shopify - Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial today at Shopify.com/grumpyCleanMyMac - Get Tidy Today!

    Your money beliefs were locked in by the time you were seven years old. The patterns showing up in your bank account right now started somewhere in your childhood. And most of the financial advice you have been given is aimed at the wrong target. Financial educator Haley Sacks, a.k.a. Mrs. Dow Jones, author of Future Rich Person: The New Rules for Building Wealth, breaks down why obsessing over lattes and pre-chopped vegetables is a waste of your financial energy. Negotiating your salary, understanding compound interest, learning to earn more. That is what actually moves the needle. There's a real difference between looking rich and being rich. Looking rich is the designer logo, the signal, the illusion. Being rich is driving a Jeep, buying back your time, and not needing anyone to notice. Haley shares how she blew her first $3,000 windfall on an oversized fake Louis Vuitton bag on eBay and couldn't make rent that month. The bag is still on her shelf as a reminder. Haley calls it learned financial helplessness. When you feel like the system is completely stacked against you and there is no real path to win, you stop trying and start looking for shortcuts. Faking rich becomes the move. But once you name what is working against you, you take back some of the power. That is where her IBIZA money mindset program (Identify, Blame, Interrupt, Z, Action) comes in. You do not need a high salary to build wealth. A janitor named Ronald died with $8 million because he always kept action money, the money left after expenses, and put it to work in low-cost index funds consistently over time. The billionaires are investing in the same vehicles available to you right now. The only question is whether you start. Get your copy of Future Rich Person: The New Rules for Building Wealth Financial Tea Podcast Haley on Instagram In this episode you will: Discover the three rules to becoming a Future Rich Person and why money mindset has to come first before any financial strategy will stick Learn the difference between action money and the rest of your budget, and why understanding this gap is the key to actually building wealth Understand learned financial helplessness and how to use the IBIZA framework (Identify, Blame, Interrupt, Z, Action) to shift your money self-identity Break down the real difference between looking rich and being rich, and what your spending patterns reveal about your deeper beliefs around value and self-worth Find out what to teach your kids about money early, including how to talk from abundance instead of scarcity, how to tie chores to pay, and how to introduce taxes through an allowance system For more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1927 For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960 Follow The Daily Motivation for essential highlights from The School of Greatness More SOG episodes we think you'll love: Lewis Howes Solo [$0 to $1M Blueprint] Vivian Tu Brendon Burchard TOPICS Haley Sacks, Future Rich Person book, action money, learned financial helplessness, value-based spending, financial energy, IBIZA money mindset framework, frictionless finance, compound interest, money shame Get more from Lewis!
