Monday Morning Mailbag and More

This is Mark Szorady's "Monday Morning Mailbag" YouTube show in podcast form. Hello to all viewers and listeners. On the Monday Morning Mailbag, we discuss the Traditional Wet Shave and all the gear and processes that accompany it. You'll hear about new and vintage safety razors, shave brushes, shave soaps and creams, etc. Viewers send in shaving tips and very helpful comments. I also hope to drop in some extra content from time to time that I'll be calling "Second Cup." So, grab a cup of coffee and join us every Monday and stay tuned for that Second Cup.

About

This is Mark Szorady's "Monday Morning Mailbag" YouTube show in podcast form. Hello to all viewers and listeners. On the Monday Morning Mailbag, we discuss the Traditional Wet Shave and all the gear and processes that accompany it. You'll hear about new and vintage safety razors, shave brushes, shave soaps and creams, etc. Viewers send in shaving tips and very helpful comments. I also hope to drop in some extra content from time to time that I'll be calling "Second Cup." So, grab a cup of coffee and join us every Monday and stay tuned for that Second Cup.
