How Radiohead Wrote the Perfect Bond Theme Song

If you can read music, this is a must watch. If you can’t read music, you should still watch this. You just won’t geek out over it as much as the musically literate. The way this guy breaks down the history of Bond theme songs is incredible. He’s kind of like the Bond of music.  Ba-dum, Ba-dummmmmm, Ba-dah-dum.

Everything You Need to Consider Before Buying a New Flannel

[Partner]  It’s flannel season, boys. You’re probably already seeing them on every rack. Which is great. Who doesn’t love a flannel? But it’s also dangerous. Because flannels can, and often do, go wrong. Not when you have the Harker’s Flannel from Howler Brothers, though. It checks all the boxes. Buttery softness and warmth. Simple, but unique patterns. Button flap pocket on the left chest. Reinforced elbow patches. Just the right amount of detail with contrast stitching and custom metal buttons.  To top it off, ELEVATOR subscribers get 15% off their order with the code ELEVATOR15. Don’t settle for any flannel this season. We beg of you.  Get yourself the perfect flannel.

This Swiss Shooting Range is Very Swiss

Leave it to Switzerland to design a shooting range where the targets are on the other side of a very busy highway. Safely, we should add. We should also add that we’re not making a political statement here. You know us. We just like sharing interesting things. And this qualifies.  Obviously.

Why the U.S. Government Values Your Life at $10,041,645

Feeling worthless? We hope not. We hope you feel worth $10,041,645. That’s what the government values you at. Kind of. The math is tricky. But say you get kidnapped and the kidnappers ask the U.S. government for ransom. Just tell them to stay below the 10 mill mark, and you’ll be fine.  We think.

What Happens When You Quit Porn?

No moral judgments here. A recent study showed 82% of women watch porn. And 100% of men watch porn. So we’re not exaggerating when we say literally every guy does. But what happens when you quit? Does it actually affect anything? It does. Your brain. Your mood. Your attention.  This guy should be a health teacher.

A 1967 CBS Report on LSD and the Hippie Movement

If National Geographic did a documentary on hippies in the wild, we think it would look something like this. Except less offensive. Nonetheless, it’s always entertaining to listen to an out-of-touch CBS reporter describe what he thinks an acid trip must be like. They call it, “The Hippie Temptation.”  Consider us tempted.
