Archer: Air Superiority

By Drew Prindle Published December 23, 2019

I’ve you’ve ever taken a stroll down the air freshener aisle at your local department store, you’ve undoubtedly noticed the shelves are dominated by an ominous phalanx of lace-curtian lady-scents sporting names like flowerbomb daydream, lovebubble fruit blossom, and other hilariously hyper-feminine titles. You might find one like Clean Linen if you comb through each shelf with a magnifying glass, but overall it’s safe to say that the air freshener market is seriously lacking in masculine fragrances.

That’s where Archer comes in. These guys got sick of all that honey-suckle dewdrop bullshit, so they made a line of aerosol air sprays that won’t assault your manly, hair-filled nostrils. Currently they offer three scents:

European Sports Car smells of worn leather, excessive horsepower, and a hint of aftershave; Distillery hits your nose with hints of charred oak, sour mash, and the sweet smell of aged bourbon; and Hunting Lodge puts off the inviting scents of hearthstone, gunpowder, and damp timber.

And this is just the beginning. Archer has two new room fresheners slated for release in the next few months, as well as new product lines like dish soap and a hand soap that are currently in the works. Find out more at Archermen.com

Tiger (HBO)

Depending on how you look at it, golf is either one of the simplest sports or one of the most complex. The objective is very easy to wrap your head around: This ball has got to wind up in a hole that's maybe a quarter mile away. Everything that happens after that, though, is where things get interesting. Of course, people who love golf love it for a wide array of reasons. Some people love the beautiful courses, while others love the stories behind their favorite players.
There are plenty of people who love golf but don't play it much themselves, and those are the people who this list is really for. Golf's full of amazing stories, and we've even gotten our fair share of great golf movies as a result.

They're the kinds of movies that can inspire and perplex you, and also remind you that at its best, golf is filled with legendary moments.

Julia Garner was pretty sure the Silver Surfer had to be a man before joining Fantastic Four

Garner is providing more detail about her version of the character.

Julia Garner as the Silver Surfer

Now that we've gotten our first look at Julia Garner's female version of the Silver Surfer in Fantastic Four: First Steps, we're also learning a little bit more about the Emmy winner wound up signing on to the project. In a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, Garner revealed that she wasn't even aware that her character, Shalla-Bal, or the female version of the Silver Surfer, existed until she met with director Matt Shakman.

“I met up with Matt, who’s lovely. We met up at some restaurant in Burbank or something. I don’t even remember, but I knew it was for the Fantastic Four,” she explained. “And then I was confused because I was like, ‘Wait, isn’t the Silver Surfer a man?’ I was just like, “Okay, well, I’ll play anything.” [Laughs] I was a very big fan of Matt’s, so there was already, in my mind, like, ‘I should probably meet with Matt Shakman because he’s a very smart director and I love his work.’ And then he was explaining to me that it’s actually Shalla-Bal and that whole thing.”
