Friday Top Five:: January 6th, 2023
Each week in our ‘Friday Top Five’ segment, we feature five things we thought were interesting, notable, or culturally significant. This week we are showcasing the Random Show with Tim Ferris and Kevin Rose, how to get your wardrobe right for 2023 with the folks from Commonwealth Proper. Sticking with the CMMP team, we are highlighting their new American Single Malt Whiskey, moving right into fashion, cocktails, and tech with LA-based content creator John Baptist. Then finally, rounding things out with a year-end sneaker review and preview with Seth Fowler.

Story-3:: CMMP Single Malt
Overview: In 2021, we embarked on the mission to create a whiskey and offer it to the public. We partnered with a local Pennsylvania-based distiller to create a unique, distinctly American spirit. The result was "Barrel Select," CMMP's very own American Single Malt Whiskey. The whiskey is aged 100% malted barley in a medium char American White Oak barrel. The first 90-proof batch contains hints of citrus, vanilla and chocolate, with a smooth and a rich finish. Each bottle is hand-marked with its own unique barrel and bottle number. There's only 300 bottles available, and when they're gone, they're gone.
Like our clothing, each bottle is unique and made for Gentlemen Rebels who dare to chart their own path and take the risk into something unknown - an American Single Malt.

Story-5:: Top Sneakers of 2022 & What’s Next for 2023
Overview: Seth Fowler is an Industrial Designer and Sneaker Enthusiast! On this channel, he designs, reviews, and unboxes sneakers, as well as dropping the occasional Travel Vlog! He just eclipsed 1 million subscribers and has been a fan of mine over the last few years, and is one of my favorite sneaker reviewers. With the year coming to a close, I figured it would be cool to look back at 2022 and what is to come in 2023.
