HOW TO IRON A SHIRT

Ben teams up (and battles!) the overconfident superhero Ironing Man to teach YOU the ultimate guide to ironing a dress shirt like a pro! 🦸‍♂️✨ No pizza boxes or maple syrup here—just practical, game-changing tips to achieve that crisp, polished look that defines the mind, the look, and the way that maketh a man. 😎👑

From the perfect ironing order (yolk first, fellas! 🥚) to must-have tools like a trusty ironing board and starch, we’ve got you covered. 💨 Plus, we test 4 genius non-ironing hacks for those moments when life throws wrinkles your way! 🚿❄️ Watch Ben debunk Ironing Man’s wild ideas (sparkling water? Really? 🤦‍♂️) while delivering a masterclass in shirt-ironing discipline.

What You’ll Learn:

✅ The optimal order to iron a dress shirt (yolk ➡️ sleeves ➡️ back ➡️ front ➡️ collar) 🎯
✅ 4 essential tools for a sharp, dignified look 🔧
✅ How to avoid ironing disasters (no melted shirts here!) 🚫🔥
✅ 4 non-iron hacks to save the day (wear damp, ice & dryer, wrinkle release, steamer) 🛠️
✅ Why a crisp shirt is your armor for self-mastery and first impressions 🛡️

Ironing Man’s Shenanigans:

Our caped crusader (with a shirt for a cape! 🧣) brings the laughs with his absurd “tips”. Will his “Crispin!” powers (and syrup obsession 🍁) save the day, or will Ben’s practical wisdom prevail?

😜 Spoiler: Fabric softener is his kryptonite! 😱
