Beardo – The Movie
Beardo is a documentary about beards and the 2009 World Beard and Moustache Championships. From the Beardo Website:
‘Beardo’ is a documentary on the 2009 World Beard and Moustache Championships (WBMC). Held in Anchorage, Alaska in 2009, this biennial competition judges men in eighteen different moustache, partial beard, and full beard categories for the title of “Best Facial Hair in the World.” This international event boasts nearly 300 competitors from 15 countries. The WBMC usually takes place in Europe, but was held in the U.S. for only the second time ever. In years past, every competition has been dominated by the Germans…
Produced by Jeffrey Tocci and DIGICO Shoot | Post | Design, ‘Beardo’ talks to first-time and veteran contestants from different countries about facial hair in soceity, and the competition and the competition aftermath. One-on-one interviews get behind the beards and reveal motivations, passions, dreams, and the stigma of living in a modern world with beards and moustaches.
I am featured throughout the movie, and here’s the trailer:
Beard Interview: Jack Passion – World Beard Champion
I recently had the immense pleasure of being interviewed by Coach Adam from The Beard Coach.
He asked some really great questions as we discussed beards and this book.
Thanks Adam!

Beard Revue Review of The Facial Hair Handbook
Michael Buchino’s Beard Revue is one of the most popular beard and mustache blogs on the internet. He’s written about me before, and has always been kind. His review of The Facial Hair Handbook was no exception. Here’s a highlight:
The Facial Hair Handbook is a perfect companion for both expert and novice pogonolgists. Whether you read it on a sunny afternoon in Walnut Creek or on a brisk day in Berlin, it is sure to make you smile. This book makes for a great, affordable gift for your favorite beardy.”
Thanks Michael!

Reader Testimonial – Max Baehr
Great book, Mr. Passion. You’ve treated a deeply personal subject with heartfelt, humorous, and inspiring words. You remain a proud example of how to wear a beard with style, with gusto, and with love, and for that, sir, I thank you.
