Innehållsförteckning för April 2022 från FHM UK

These days, whether you are a model, athlete, businessman, or whatever else, how people view you on social media and online is KEY to succeeding and building a following, reputation, and lending credibility to whatever it is you do. And behind all those sexy photos and content is a content team, or at least a photographer/videographer that is making the magic happen. Now, anyone can take a photo or video, but editing it, branding it, and making it fit your needs is a whole other business that companies are making millions off of because they have that touch to give their clients something so appealing it brings in total awareness and lots of sales. FHM caught up with Hunter Franklin and Marcus Taylor, who go by “Brotherdale”, who are two…

Daytona USA The racing game that defined the arcade era, the 1993 cult classic Daytona USA was a masterpiece at the time, featuring incredible graphics and arguably the catchiest theme song ever by Takenobu Mitsuyoshi. Honestly, go to YouTube now and have a listen, it’s incredible. Perhaps the most recognizable arcade racing game of all time and the highest-grossing sit-down cabinet ever, Daytona USA remains a shining example of arcade racing at its absolute purest. Featuring some of the craziest driving at the time, it also featured 8 player support and was an arcade hit till the end of the dominance of arcades. Sadly the home releases failed to live up to the arcade hype and Sega’s struggling Saturn system did not do the greatest arcade racer of all time…

Such an absolute honor to have you on FHM! How is the year going for you so far? Hi FHM! Thank you so much for having me! 2022 is already off to such an incredible start. Last year gave me phenomenal momentum working towards my goals so I’m excited for this year! What are you most looking forward to this year? Having opportunities like this to share my work and connect with more fans! Top 3 best moments of your career so far? Oh man, there are so many winners here. I definitely think being able to make modeling and content creation my full-time job is number one on that list. I think being featured on a tee shirt line that sold out worldwide in malls everywhere is definitely up…

Certain markets have waited a painfully long time for the arrival of the Clio V which has a left wide gap for rival brands to rake in customers with their newer wares. In the interim, Renault products like the Kiger have absorbed some of those sales but these products simply lack the pizzaz of the Clio. Now that the new Clio is finally here it will have a tough job reminding customers why it was once a vanguard of the younger generation while catering to those who are in a downsizing phase of life. Visually the Clio V represents a gentle evolution on the outside and one that brings it closer to the styling direction of the Megane. It’s good to see Renault back on a path that once again…

Has storytelling become a lost art? Have we become so insular, buried in our mobile technology often connecting with people we have probably never met in a virtual world of imagery and diminished literary content that storytelling has become a thing of the past? If so, I think that is sad as I was fortunate enough to be exposed to the most wonderful stories when I was a fresh-faced junior police officer. Why did my rank and age have a bearing on the consumption of these tales? Well for the first seven years or so as a Constable this entry-level step introduced me to several older soaks that by virtue of a conscious decision or the fact that they had failed to overcome that bastard of a first hurdle, the…

“The greatest improvement to Land Rover’s Terrain Response system has been the addition of an Auto mode.” We’ve already commended the Defender’s breadth of ability, the way it massages the city grind without contempt. We’ve praised the ride quality, the silkiness of the engine and have been impressed by the thoughtful homages to the original - except for the perhaps the rear-mounted spare wheel which adds a lot of weight to the side-hinged door when gravity is working against you. Yet the one area we haven’t done covered in detail to is the suite of off-road systems that adorn the new Defender; a mix of traditional lockers and new-fangled systems make sure there’s something for the novice and expert off-roader to enjoy after 70 years of off-road innovation. Aluminum Construction…

Lying awake in bed as a kid I often wondered what it felt like to me. This abstract thought process ebbed away as I got older, holding many other beautiful aspects of my childhood imagination to ransom as the drudgery of adulthood eventually took control. As a child, I didn’t know how commonplace this self-reflective behavior was although if the scientific discipline of psychology is anything to go by, others have observed the phenomenon of ‘self’ in great detail. Indeed, it would appear that a lot of other folks have little hesitancy in declaring their own conclusions on the intimate behaviors and identity of others. And a recent statement, of which I have heard previously, suddenly connected with a forthcoming drinking session with my mates causing me to revisit my…

It’s hard to think of a time before YouTube, for many people it would be inconceivable to think of a time when the most popular video hosting website did not exist. But the scary thing is YouTube is only 17 years old. Initially launched as an online dating service, YouTube would go on to become arguably the biggest and most important website in the history of the internet. Launching a platform that would eventually see the rise of Content Creators as well as a bottomless well of information and utter nonsense. But how did a failed online dating site turn into the behemoth it is today? Tune In, Hook Up. YouTube was founded by Chad Hurley, Steven Shih Chen and Jawed Karim. All three were working for Paypal at the…

It was a slightly incongruent sequence of events; there we were thumbing the latest connectivity features within the FordPass app - now available in the current Everest line-up - while around the world Ford was simultaneously announcing the all-new Everest. Never before has a product felt so new and so archaic in parallel but it did highlight that the Everest has led a very full and healthy life, right to the very end. The Everest range has undergone a number of small tweaks and model enhancements over its lifecycle, including the introduction of the 210hp bi-turbo engine paired with the 10-speed gearbox (which also delivered the final chop to the 3.2-liter engine), the introduction of a 4x4 model in XLT guise in 2020 and the Sport derivative a year later.…

Such an absolute honor to have you on FHM! What does it mean for you to be on the cover? Well… there’s actually a really funny story behind this! I was working with Stu Allen on his next music video and whilst looking through some of my photos he kept telling me “You belong in FHM!” - I just laughed off the whole idea of it ever happening. A few days later I was speaking to my friend who said she was going to be in a magazine… When she said it was for FHM I was like “wait, what? That’s twice I’ve heard FHM in one week!?” and now I’m here, on the front cover… My mind is literally blown! I don’t think it’s quite sunk in yet! What…
