In partnership with

We’re about 32 weeks into 2026, and last week I decided to switch things up by moving toward slightly shorter reviews, but posting them more often. Today’s video is the first under that new schedule, and I’m taking a look at two products I’ve actually been using for about six months. I’ve also got a new Freakin’ 2 video this week, so let’s dive in!

NEW VIDEO ALERT 📽️
Solving Problems With Heat and Light

Mosquito bites and mental clarity are addressed with these gadgets.

I bought these two weird gadgets months ago intending to review them, but instead I just started using them off camera. One uses concentrated heat to take the itch out of mosquito bites, while the other uses flickering light to help me relax, clear my head, and sometimes fall asleep.

After months of using both of them, I finally went back to see how they’ve held up in real-world use, what I still like about them, and the few things that annoy me.

If you’ve ever wondered whether a tiny phone-powered bite healer actually works, or what it’s like to wear a flashing light mask on your face, this one gets a little strange.

Don’t have time to watch? You can read my written review here.

Most Men Notice Aging All at Once

Men's skin is 25% thicker than women's. That sounds like an advantage. It isn't. Thicker skin delays the visible signs of aging — until collagen drops. And when it drops, it drops hard: heavier eye bags, deeper wrinkles, dark spots, loss of firmness. All at once. Most men were never taught to get ahead of it. That's where Particle Face Cream comes in. A 6-in-1 formula engineered specifically for men's skin — reduces eye bags, dark spots, and wrinkles, restores firmness, hydrates deeply, revives dull tone. Two minutes a day. No complicated routine. Over 1,000,000 men already use it. Try it risk-free with a 30-day money-back guarantee. 20% off with code BH20.

Quick Household Tip: Keeping Cool Inside

If you’re trying to cool a room during hot weather, keep blinds or curtains closed on windows that get direct sunlight. Blocking that incoming light can noticeably reduce the amount of heat building up indoors, especially in the afternoon.

FREAKIN’ 2
Vegan Reese’s & Apple Pie Beans

Plant-Based Reese’s surprised me.

Over on Freakin’ 2, I posted a video earlier this week in which I tried out another round of weird foods, including Plant Based Reese’s, Apple Pie Beans, and yet another flavor of Liquid Death. In between the food taste tests are my usual ramblings and old stories.

SHORT SPOTLIGHT 🎥
ChargeCard

In today’s Short Spotlight, I’m revisiting my 2023 review of ChargeCard, a credit-card-sized power bank designed to give your phone a little extra juice on the go. It even looks a bit like an American Express card, but hidden inside is a compact backup battery with built-in charging cables.

Three years later, I still sometimes reach for it, and it has held up well with occasional use.

Check out the Short for a quick refresher on my original review, or watch the full video to see all of the tests.

We’ve been over 110 degrees here in Vegas since the start of August, and I’m looking forward to “cooling off” to the low 100s! Before you know it, though, we’ll be heading into Halloween. Wasn’t it just New Year’s?

Look for my next review to land early next week!

Until next time,
