In this episode of The Gent Within Podcast, we’re breaking down the rise of stealth wealth and quiet luxury.

Forget the flashy logos and hype drops. True style today is about subtle details, timeless pieces, and confidence that doesn’t need to shout.

Learn how to build a wardrobe that signals success without chasing trends, why minimalism matters more than ever, and the essentials every man should own if he wants to nail this understated aesthetic.

A quintessential item for my summer, a refresher during my spring, a bracing backbone to a fall, and a warming hint of home in the winter, vodka is truly an evergreen spirit.

Skilled in the subtle, master of commingling, and sometimes tarted up with a flavor infusion, vodka is one of the most pure and innocent spirits but is perfectly adaptable to almost any occasion.

With a slight flavor profile and crisp finish, I encourage all of you to give vodka the attention it deserves. Much like its more spicy cousin tequila, vodka is often lambasted and abused through a lens of poor college-age decisions.

However, this gives the entire branch of spirits a bad rap. If we don’t let Jack Daniels ruin whisky for us (more on that later, don’t worry), then we shouldn’t let vodka named after some unpronounceable Russian author deter us from enjoying the more mature and invigorating options surrounding us.

What follows is a brief outline of all the exciting and, believe it or not, different flavors and forms even a straight vodka can take. Truly a flavor based in nuance, vodkas primarily have an impact based on their base grain, how many times they’ve been distilled, and how they were produced.

Vodka is fascinating in that it can be distilled from any organic material (there’s one made of oysters!) and takes its flavor from the ingredients while not having an aging process like brown liquors. Vodka can also be produced anywhere in the world, which gives it a much more international vibe. With even a little practice, you’ll be able to confidently pick out any of the major vodkas from a blind lineup.

The primary focus of this article is to highlight what I think is both good for the flavor and good for the price. As always, I aim to highlight spirits that are find-able at almost any liquor store and affordable for, hopefully all. Vodka, unfortunately more so than almost any other type of spirit, is ranked in the popular imagination based on the success of their various ad agencies.

Think, after all, of how many other spirits run such incessant ad campaigns as Grey Goose, Kettle One, etc. So, buckle up, and get your cocktail shaker ready. It’s time to explore some vodka.

The past few weeks I've been blessed to have time off from my usual vocation allowing me more time for my avocation: drinking, I’m still thinking about bourbon.

I’d written last time that bourbon was America’s one truly unique offering to the world of spirits so it makes sense to explore more in depth the brief story of the cocktail and how they almost uniquely derive from America’s unique liquor.

Bourbon is a favorite among many who like to drink spirits and so this in-depth guide is intended to highlight the “best of the best” bourbon cocktails (along with recipes), whether for its place in history, taste, prestige, versatility or overall delight it brings. This roundup is intended to show that there’s drink for every whiskey lover.

Let's dive in.

Sometimes we feel like the obstacles or challenges we face are so difficult that we couldn’t possibly overcome them. Confronting a medical situation, facing an unexpected job loss or even coping with the loss of a loved one all can make us stop dead in our tracks, not knowing if we can move forward.

So how can some people not only find the strength to move past these tests they face, but also become stronger as a result? They show resilience in the face of their troubles.

This in-depth guide on resilience defines resilient thinking and the 4 different types of resiliency. It also covers resilience factors that contribute to a positive mindset, how to apply resilient thinking at work, school, when life is stressful and perhaps most importantly, recognizing it in others.

We've also included 5 case studies of individuals who overcame the odds, displaying fervent resilience in the face of adversity, that are certain to inspire and show the true power of resilience, along with a handful of helpful books and resources on resilience.

What you choose to wear is just as important as what you choose to say, whether in a social setting or coordinating a plan for that next big date. Realizing the power in dressing well and taking action to become a well dressed man will serve you favorably in so many areas of your life.

Perhaps you’ve already achieved the romance holy grail of starting a text conversation with a girl. Better yet, your ability to woo the ladies with your wizarding words may even be effortless. But have you ever thought about your personal style and the story you tell with your clothing? It’s a whole different ballgame.

And when I say “dress well,” I don’t mean dressed to the nines in a suit and tie. Though I won’t stop you from suiting up, what I mean is to dress appropriately; appropriately for the occasion and appropriately for your age. You also want to dress comfortably, in a way that makes you feel like the best version of yourself.

Why is this important?

Well, let’s dive in on 10 Reasons To Dress Like You Give a Damn.

This episode will give some suggestions of what a man should wear to a job interview for a range of scenarios from traditional business formal to a not so dressed up interview, and in between.
