Why You Should Buy the Sony PlayStation 5

The PlayStation 5 unleashes new gaming possibilities over previous generations of gaming consoles. Lightning-fast load times are the norm with an ultra0high speed solid state drive, which also allows creators to pull data so quickly that they can design games in ways never before possible. If the best retro game consoles are more where your gaming influence resides, you can actually take on more than 4,000 games from the PS4 on this PlayStation 5 console, and their presentation is even improved on this newer generation console, with frame rates being much smoother on many of the games.

And speaking of improvement, the PlayStation 5 allows for smooth and fluid high frame rate gameplay at up to 120 frames per second for compatible games, with support for 120Hz output on 4K displays. This will keep your gaming playback from breaking apart or lagging, even during the most intense gameplay action. Additionally, immersive HDR playback is one of its more impressive features. When it comes to getting the PlayStation 5 set up with your home theater, the package comes with everything you need. Included is the PlayStation 5 console, a wireless controller, an AC power cord, and both an HDMI cable and USB cable for connecting to your home theater.

While the PlayStation 5 typically has a pretty hefty price tag at $500, today at Monoprice you can capitalize on a $60 discount and its lowest-ever price. This discount brings the price down to $440, and makes it a little bit more affordable addition to your home theater. Free shipping to the United States is included with your purchase.

A toast to excellence: Don’t overthink lighting a cigar…but don’t underthink it either 
Face, Head, Person

When I first decided I was ready to try cigars for the first time, I was ready to jump right in and sit back to enjoy the experience. Then, something crazy happened. I couldn’t light it. It seemed so simple. Flame, meet cigar. It really couldn’t be that complicated. But I ran into a slew of problems. The wrong kind of flame, canoeing, an uneven burn, and the damn thing kept going out, causing me to restart the embarrassing process. So I reached out to my friends over at La Aurora to find out what I was doing wrong.

That is when I found out from their own John Gaglio that these issues are very common and there is no reason to be embarrassed. Instead, don’t overthink lighting your cigar. And don’t underthink it. Instead, try to use the following tips and enjoy the experience without shame.

Topgolf brings back John Daly to continue to “disrupt” the game
john daly

To the uninitiated, golf can feel like a stuffy game. There is a dress code, there is an etiquette, and you even have to be quiet. At a sporting event. For those of us who love golf (don’t get me wrong, I am a huge fan but believe it is called golf because the other four-letter words are taken), we recognize golf isn’t stuffy as much as it is steeped in tradition. But there has always been one man who shirked the shackles of the tradition and disrupted the game of golf with one of the most immaculate vibes in the sport, John Daly. With his drinking, smoking, wild pants, wilder mouth, and general who-gives-a-sh*t nature, he was everything golf wanted to keep out. Now, the game embraces him and his vibe, and Topgolf brought him in to continue the disruption.

I love the vibe at Topgolf. It’s a place where you can smash a golf ball, listen to music, have a drink, and enjoy yourself with friends and family. That’s my kind of golf. – John Daly

Cigar Lounge Spotlight: The Carnegie Club takes you back to Rat Pack days
Couch, Furniture, Body Part

Three blocks south of Central Park, before you find yourself lost in the hectic environment of Times Square, is a cigar lounge tucked back away from the hustle and bustle. It almost feels like a secret. A place only those in the know are privy to. Of course, if that is the intention, then lovers of this establishment will be coming for me in no time with their pitchforks. I am talking about The Carnegie Club—a cigar lounge sitting on 56th Street between 6th and 7th Avenue. From the moment you walk in, it doesn’t feel like a normal, run-of-the-mill bar. No, this has a New York feel, but a specific kind of New York feel. One that harkens back to the days of Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and Sammy Davis Jr. This feels like the Rat Pack days.
