As the Holiday Season continues to progress, one thing is for certain. This was year where many of us discovered that working from home wasn't as easy as simply throwing a laptop on the kitchen table.

We've put together a few recommendations that would serve as great gift ideas for your home office.

Like many things this year, the 2020 National Hardware Show was a bit different. Instead of being able to navigate through endless rows of booths and network with folks in the aisles, this year was 100% virtual. Despite that, I sort of enjoyed the experience since it allowed me to connect with vendors by browsing their web profiles and setting up Zoom meetings and I left the conference without the sore back and legs that I normally have. Sadly I also didn't get to take home the bags of swag and samples that normally come with shows like this. However, despite the changing conditions of 2020, the BBQ and tailgating world is still cooking up some fun gadgets and gear. Here's some of our favorites that we found!

Purchasing OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts is often recommended by car manufacturers and for a good reason.

Let's take a look at some pros and cons of using OEM vs aftermarket parts and when you should use one over the other.

It is easy to get caught up in the excitement of going on a trip to the beach, but it is important to make sure all the necessary gear is packed up.

In years past, the word "VPN" was dark and scary. It was a word that people associated with hackers and criminals rather than people like you and I. Today though, having a good VPN is essential for protecting your online privacy from being snooped on as well as being able to break through geo-locked services so you can surf like you do back home.

I've been privileged to test and review a lot of headsets that are sent our way and frankly, most are simply utilitarian or designed to just look great. There are a lot of options out there that sound good and look great but this is the first time I'm actually having fun with a pair of headphones. Beyond being a talented artist, successful promoter, and entrepreneur - Snoop is about having fun and celebrating the great stuff in life. That spirit carries through to this limited-edition LS50X Snoop Dog headset as well.

Here's a selection of breathalyzer units that can help you know your alcohol intoxication level.

I am rapidly becoming obsessed with Jeeps and off-road trucks. There's a sense of freedom being able to go places others can't that those locked to the pavement will never understand. Unfortunately for our bank accounts, owning a Jeep can be an expensive hobby - but one that is exciting and fun. This goes way beyond the travel aspect and exploring new terrain. It also includes the community and affinity that Jeep owners have for each other. From the nod to the Jeep wave, it's something special. This community tends to attract a lot of interesting individuals who seek freedom and individually. So it should be no surprise that most of these folks are also driven to enhance their rigs. New tires, axles, winches, lifts, even stickers and flags. Owning a Jeep is something special and so here's six things that you should consider when planning an upgrade

It’s so hard waiting for deer season once you’ve got the itch to hunt.
