DOWNLOAD THE MP3 HERE Larry buys an antique/gets a big surprise ■ Psychometry - real or bunk? ■ Flea market crap that can make you rich ■ A new Commie slogan to hate ■ Why Bezos isn't as smart as he thinks he is ■ The gargantuan online Chinese company you need to avoid ******************************************************* Its tough finding greater hypocrisy than that of the corporations who greenwash themselves for their idiot customer base. Gillette would be a prime example. So woke, so PC, yet their business-model says fuck the planet as loudly as any oil company. All their products are disposable. A hundred years ago, you could buy a lifetime razor. That's right, one cool little shaving device that would keep your face baby-ass smooth from puberty to your last shave. It was the Rolls razor, and here it is. The average dude starts shaving at 16. If he lives to be 72, he'll use about 3,000+ plastic razors, which, the enviros claim do not recycle. 1 vs 3,000. Easy math. Fuck Gillette. (And I'm no enviro-bro.) I just hate them. I burned them to the ground in Episode 160. Check it out. http://thatlarryshow.com/episode-160-larry-slashes-gillette/ Here's a door on that kickass breakfront hand-built in Indianapolis in 1911. And the beveled glass mirror. $400. Built to last and still beautiful. Don't bother looking for something like that today. Doesn't exist. Here's my new/slightly used Electrolux. Built between 1993 and 2001. It's made to suck - forever. Will a Dyson will last that long? No. It won't. Shopping for a home? Feast your eyes on this baby, prefabricated from Sears Roebuck. Less than $7k and gorgeous. A hundred ears old and many are still standing. Compare it's specs with today's "custom homes." No contest. The Electrolux commercial at the top of my show. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8gQAsm7Zeg Support That LARRY SHOW Patreon Follow That LARRY SHOW on Twitter Follow That LARRY SHOW on Instagram Follow That LARRY SHOW on NoAgendaSocial Email Larry: thatlarryshow@gmail.com Call the TNS Dojo – 302-715-2779
