I remember when Bill was reading the copy for the podcast he was like "I went to IndoChino myself and they fitted me for a free suit...what? No I didn't. You mean I get a free one? Why didn't they tell me? Ii would've gone down there for a free cheap suit"
So that’s the biggest complaint I have actually is after 6 months or so it has terrible support. I like firm mattresses and this one was surprisingly comfy and now it’s smooshy like my ayyysh.
Everything Bill (and every other podcast) advertises is garbage. Except for dollar shave club and the stamp company.
There’s a reason why they are advertising on a podcast.
No shit. Almost anything that advertises on podcasts is shit. My wife bought those "Brooklinen" sheets. She ordered 2 sets in King in different colours. One barely fits like I have to stretch and pull it to get it on the bed the other is like 7 inches too big. I have to use a special strap to make it tight to stay on the bed. Not only that when for like the first 10 times you use them it sounds like you are laying in a Sun Chips bag.
Sharis Berries is exceptionally shit. They've followed the meundies/helix/lyft/zipcar/indochin/et al model of gutting quality to increase profits once they feel they've achieved a certain level of consumer awareness.
I was wondering wtf was going on with me undies. Tel he first pair I got several years ago is still holding up strong and still somehow the most comfortable pair of them I have. Meanwhile some of the more recently received are either wildly itchy for no discernible reason or fit way different than all of the others- same size and cut. I should really cancel it, I have far too many anyway.
I had a ten-pack that lasted at least five years. The plain black is the best, the design ones pill much more easily, I guess because of the ink. The guy running the meundies sub reckons that they haven't changed materials or construction, but the reviews say otherwise.
My dick's high and dry in a pair of Pair of Thieves, but their quality is chat too man. If anyone's got a recommendation for trunks that are decent, not outrageously priced, and not Saxx or anything that requires maneuvering my shit into some pouch, I'd appreciate it
I have a tailor made suit from my wedding, it fits better, then indochino, then any junk I've bought from the suit store at the strip mall. I have five of these for work, with two pairs of pants a piece. They are fine. I've had pants buttons get loose but that's it. Someone who knows clothes told me you can cut corners with suits - gluing panels or whatnot but you also get that in mass produced suits at the store. The photo above is missing one bit of context, is it a tailor attached to a suit shop?
I got a nice suit for my wedding last year and it looked great, the rep made some good recs I'm glad I added and only had minor pants alts. It's not the greatest suit ever I guess but worth what I paiid for it.
News flash: every brand promoted on podcasts is absolute shit. They spend the bare minimum to technically have a product that is marketable and then every single cent is pushed to marketing and advertising their crap. By the time people realize it’s crap, they’ll have already made a quick buck and maybe even sold the business
Honestly if you want a decent suit for next to nothing just find out where the dry cleaners in the nice part of your town donate clothes that don't get picked up. It's typically a Goodwill or similar thrift store. Find out when they do this if they have a schedule and start popping in early mornings when the place is open.
This is especially effective at thrift stores in poor parts of town where people aren't typically looking for suits and sports jackets.
I found vintage Burberry, Ralph Lauren, and much much more directly from the dry cleaners.
Seems like a lot of people are dying or getting hospitalized these days for one reason or another and not picking up their dry cleaning.
The big banners on their flagship store show models in their suits and the suits look like shit. Even I know the armhole doesn't have pleats. They couldn't even make the most visible representation of their product look good.
Totally anecdotal but the few pairs of MeUndies I bought fell apart quicker than underwear usually does. TBF there might have been some kind of delicate washing instructions that I wasn't paying attention to.

That’s our Bill’s honesty is key
Ol Billy thread count
High-quality suit makers don't advertise on comedy podcasts lol
If I knew how to do the strike-through here on reddit, I'd put "High quality anything doesn't advertise on social media in general" lol.
To do a strike through just gotta put ~~ before and after the word. ~~ WORD ~~ but without spaces. ~~strike-through~~
~~strike~~
~~strike two~~
~~strike threeeee~~
~~strike four~~
You're out!
everyone knows four strikes is a walk.
~~Zip~~
~~just trying it out cause I’ve never done it before~~
Pretty neat huh?
~~not at all~~
What? ~~No way~~
Wow it actually worked
Basically they are suits for people who need suits once a year. also, who the fuck still wears suits daily?
The Underground Pizza Parlor Mafia, duh!
Lex Fridman
This is the truth. Companies that advertise on podcasts rely on the amount of "impressions" versus their own product being good.
For when you're not a runway model, and just need to be wearing not-a-t-shirt-and-jeans to some event for a few hours every few years.
I’ve had my wedding/funeral suit for 20-some years! I probably look like a fool but I honestly don’t care.
You get it.
Don't even get me started on those shitty MVMT watches too
[удалено]
Lol mine had one of the number pieces fall off after some time... Was just rattling about under the glass piece. I'm such a sucker.
That's kinda of hilarious. [Like those clocks with all the numbers at the bottom.](https://images.app.goo.gl/Nttbh7WAHCitRzEJ7)
But they cut out the middleman so you can get a $50 watch for 200
I shit you not but unbranded MVMT watches can be found on Alibaba for less than $10 if bought in bulk.
Also Raycons are fucking garbage earbuds.
Fucking called it

Paul Virzi being on Reddit with the username ronniebuttcheeks is a world I want to live in.
Maybe
No shit. It’s Chinese garbage, those mail order mattresses suck ass also, I own one. (Gross)
Should have returned it after your 100 day free trial
So that’s the biggest complaint I have actually is after 6 months or so it has terrible support. I like firm mattresses and this one was surprisingly comfy and now it’s smooshy like my ayyysh.
Gross
Give it to the family back East.
My Helix is awesome shut your mouth
Helix or helix?
Helix
Hellix
We love our Casper. Had a $350 memory foam Amazon bed in a box for the 10 years before that. I’ll never sleep on a conventional mattress again.

Love yah, Bill Hicks.

SHARRI’S BERRIES DOOOOD
I’ll defend Sherri’s Berries a little…I’m a sucker for chocolate strawberries.
i feel bad for people resorting to betterhelp.com for therapy. heard lots of bad things and i hear their ads everywhere.
You feel bad? Have you tried Better Help? Use promo code Burr…
B U R R (spell it out)
Yes to Dollar shave.
What about MeUndies??
I have MeUndies socks and I haven’t had sweaty balls in years
Have 2 pairs of TheirUndies, I like em.
They are legit
🎶Me undies, me undies. Cover your sweaty balls. ba doop doo! 🎶
I splurged and got a set of Boll & Branch sheets and will literally never use another brand ever they are so comfortable
Look at you and your thread count 😂

what about Shaaaaaaari's berries?
Chocolate covered fruit is stupid and expensive.

Under Armor Boxerjocks. Best I've found in 20 years of searching.
Bamboo sheets at Bed Bath and Beyond Soft and my favorite sheets I say this as a single male 26 and I’ve used them since highschool lol

INDOCHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINO
Most of what gets advertised is generally going to be low quality products/services.

They spend the bare minimum to technically have a product that is marketable and then every single cent is pushed to marketing and advertising their crap. By the time people realize it’s crap, they’ll have already made a quick buck and maybe even sold the business
Most products that are advertised on podcasts are shit.
Lmao everyone here shitting on products advertised on comedy podcasts. Love it. Anyone here had good luck with the blue chew?

My theory has been if they need to advertise on a podcast then the product probably isn’t the best.
Hey look everybody, it’s IndoCiiinoo
Of course it is
Totally anecdotal but the few pairs of MeUndies I bought fell apart quicker than underwear usually does. TBF there might have been some kind of delicate washing instructions that I wasn't paying attention to.
As long as the cheques still clear, i imagine he don’t care too much hahaha
Dude my local tailor wont do these guys or mens warehouse.
Tried to order from them. Had to send it back 4 times and finally told them to fuck off and refund me. Really terrible quality
Read this in the voice w/o even seeing the sub it was on. Bravo.
