Pure passion drove David Galbraith to pursue his vision of making the world’s best hip flasks. He believed in his dream so much that he sold everything he owned and moved across the U.K. to London to launch SWIG. Today the company produces seamless stainless-steel flasks offered with a wide range of leather pouches—everything from solid colors to plaids to the Union Jack.

They make great gifts and arrive in a ribbon tied gift box and engraved with a unique serial number that permits lifetime membership in the “SWIG Society,” which is a global membership club for flask owners. It even boasts the Prime Minister among its members.

The SWIG Magnetic Executive Flask Gift Set, for example, includes a hip flask, stainless steel funnel, magnetic executive pouch, gift packaging and engraving. The impressive styling along with practical usage will make this flask a favored possession. It retails for 140 British pounds, which is currently equivalent to $218.31 in U.S. dollars.

Other flask/pouch combos range from 49 pounds to 119 pounds ($76.40 to $185.49 U.S. dollars).

If you love to travel and love to take your whisky with you, these hip flasks are a must.

Will there be a fourth season of ‘The White Lotus?’

The show's third season will be set in Thailand, and is set to premiere in early 2025.

Theo James and Meghann Fahy in White Lotus

The White Lotus was one of the biggest surprises in HBO's recent history. The series was initially devised as a self-contained story that could be filmed in compliance with COVID, and it's since become one of the most popular series in the company's repertoire. We already know that a third season is on the way and will feature another star-studded cast, but what about a potential season 4?

According to reporting in Variety, a fourth season of the show is percolating at HBO, but it hasn't officially been announced yet. “Mike, obviously — if he wants to move forward and do the four seasons — he will do the fourth season,” HBO head Casey Bloys said.

Denis Villeneuve says he ‘absolutely believes’ in ‘Dune: Messiah’ as he develops the script

The exact timing for the potential trilogy capper remains under wraps.

Timothee Chalamet in Dune Part 2

Denis Villeneuve's adaptation of Dune has been more successful than many who have loved the Frank Herbert novel for decades could have dreamed. Dune: Part 1 was nominated for a bunch of Oscars and won a couple, and Part 2 seems to be on a similar trajectory, and also far outgrossed the first installment.

Villeneuve has promised that he will return to the world of Dune one more time to adapt Herbert's sequel, Dune: Messiah, but we don't know exactly when that movie might be coming. In a recent interview with Deadline to discuss Part 2, Villeneuve was hesitant to say too much about the upcoming third installment.

J.J. Abrams' newest thriller is coming soon

Max has become the home to some of the most fascinating and innovative shows on TV. Fans can trust that the HBO-affiliated streamer has tons of originals and plenty of old favorites from trusted creators, and that trend will continue with their newest offering titled Duster. This thriller comes from the mind of the esteemed J.J. Abrams and stars his fellow Lost alum, Josh Holloway, as a getaway driver who must use his skills for the good of the government when the first Black female FBI agent in American history asks him for her help (the agent will be played by Rachel Hilson). The show is a period piece taking place in the 1970s. It hasn't been revealed how any of the main events of the decade will be incorporated into the plot of the series.

Like a lot of shows that have been teased for the coming months, Duster doesn't have a lot of concrete details out in the open yet. The project has been ongoing for quite some time and was delayed during the Hollywood writers and actors strikes, but a recent teaser trailer has hinted that Duster should finally arrive at an unspecified point in 2025. Here is everything we know so far about Duster.
