    Oddly, dollar shave club spends a lot of money on right-wing radio advertising...this has to be gold for them.

    Robert Kraft doesn't own Gillette. He sold Gillette naming rights.

    I'm fully woke when I see the price of refill cartridges. But I've used the Gillette Fusion Power for years and am too old to go changing now.

    I’ve been using the yellow one for the past few months and it’s fantastic. But not cheap.

    Old-school double-edged safety razor (Merkur) with Derby blades. You can buy a 2-year supply for about 10 bucks and the shave is much better than you'll get with a cartridge once you know what you're doing. Unfortunately they don't travel well (I haven't seen a DE razor with a cover for the blade and I don't want to waste blades), so Harry's razor and blades for travel and for showering at the gym.

    The same people who wail and gnash their teeth about how men's issues are ignored start frothing at the mouth when corporations and institutions start taking men's issues seriously? I'm starting to get the sense some of this might all be a work....

    Oh, this'll make money for Dollar Shave Club. There isn't any question.

    Millennials will like the Gillette thing, though. They generally get a charge out of companies embracing progressive morality, especially if it gives them a chance to talk about it on social media.
