We’re continuing to experiment here and also work on new types of shows for the community.

This includes pod episodes about what’s happening in the fashion industry, yes more roundtables, but more importantly chats with folks IN the community.

Along for the ride will be my co-host Rob Lim.

Rob is an OG of the superfuture and early message board days of the industry; he’s an incredible writer and has always been the sage guide of our slack community since we started.

I could not pick a better co-host for these pods.

This week we’re chatting with Derek Guy of Die! Workwear about the world of western wear and his recent article.

Blamo! Season 10 returns in October!

My guest this week is Matt & Stove of the cult brand Pizzaslime.

Pizzaslime touches everything in the fashion and culture world through a lens of humor and joy.

They’ve helped usher in the modern-day meme, made hilarious merch for bands, select grocery stores, collaborated with Crocs, and are also finding themselves in the tv and film world.

Honestly, it’s what you’d expect from two guys who love clothes!

We chat about the origins of Pizzaslime, working with Diplo, rethinking classic tv shows, how their memes wound up on Drake’s Instagram, rapper beefs, and Taco Bell’s celebrity Thanksgiving dinner.

James and I chat about his love of photography, his work in fashion, why he loves film, and his obsession with jazz. Last but not least, he shares what camera to start taking pictures with.

My guest this week is Erlend Øye.

He’s a singer, songwriter, and musician known for his own music, legendary DJ sets, the electronic, non-electronic band, The Whitest Boy Alive, but to many, he’s one half of the acoustic duo from Bergen, Norway, Kings of Convenience. 

Their first album, Quiet is the New Loud released in 2001 and caught the entire industry off guard. Softly spoken, beautiful harmonies with lyrics incredibly specific yet perfectly vague. 

Music that, for me, not only influenced my life but brought me out of my hometown to New York. 

Kings of Convenience recently released their new album Peace or Love after a 12-year hiatus. And it picks up…exactly where they left off. Softly spoken, beautiful, intimate, and in a way, precisely what I want in my ears these days.

Erlend and I discuss how different projects are essential for his mental health, why Kings of Convenience took over a decade off, how the digital age of music affects promotion, his take on fashion, and their Oblique Strategies for songwriting.

Over the past year, many folks have picked up a new hobby, golf! Yes, golf. 

The game that everyone loves – And also loves to hate. The classic socially distanced sport of golf grew more in 2020 than it had in 17 years. And one group that has everyone raving with excitement is Random Golf Club. 

This week we're joined by the founder Erik Anders Lang.

Erik discusses the origins of Random Golf Club, his background in photo and film, hanging with Takashi Murakami, getting fits off on the course, and how the image of golf is not the reality of it.
