Bruce and Ben plunge into the irresistible world of gear rabbit holes—where the quest for "just right" quickly morphs into "way too deep." From ultralight tent debates and cycling minimalism to high-end kitchen knives and slick blazers, they break down the obsessive, hilarious, and sometimes unnecessary lengths we go to research, buy, and justify our gear. Along the way, they dish hard-won truths: when to trust the hype, when to let go, and how to know when "good enough" really is. If you love sweating the details (or just want to know why your buddy suddenly cares about zipper pulls and moonlight modes on flashlights), this one's for you.
