Good Morning Canada! This week we read Elliot Page's brand new memoir PageBoy. What's billed as a groundbreaking memoir about transitioning in Hollywood is actually just a Canadian history book. From f**king Kate Mara at the Bowery Hotel, to secretly f**king his Juno co star, there actually is some gossip. PLUS some real talk where Lily gets real about their gender journey and goes he/they mode. Go Maple Leafs!    Sexy VIP Lounge news  - writer and gay tennis influencer Eric Schwartau joins us in the VIP Lounge to talk about the controversial HBO program The Idol. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

$10,000 bottles of wine! 15 hour workdays! All-night cocaine benders! Psychotic head chefs! It's Season 4 of Tales of Taboo! This week, we're exploring the high-octane world of high-end dining: the kinds of establishments that (literally) inspire books like Sweetbitter and movies like The Menu, where reservations are impossible and Chef is spelled with a capital C. I kick us off by telling MY most absurd tales as a diner in fancy restaurants: a college friend's outpatient rehab in Chicago, the development of a weird friendship with a 69 year old British man, doing edibles with famous restauranteurs at the Beatrice Inn... Then (starting at 11:43), we hear from current and former employees on the other side. In New York, confessors include the former events manager at a 3 Michelin star restaurant in Flatiron, a former waitress at another 3 Michelin star restaurant in Midtown, a former hostess at The Standard and Bowery Hotel's restaurants + The Waverly Inn, a former champagne slinger for a downtown cocktail group, and a line cook at a Lower East Side restaurant owned by a very young celebrity chef. In London, confessors include the former sommelier at Daniel Humm's Davies and Brook + another unnamed 2 Michelin star establishment, and a former waitress at two different Michelin star restaurants in Mayfair and Shoreditch. Elsewhere in Europe, a former assistant manager tells tales about an abusive executive chef at a Japanese Michelin star spot that was the first in its country. Fine dining is controversial and divisive. It's glamorous escapism with a very grim underbelly; a way to create community, yet isolate a huge number of people who cannot afford it; facilitate artistic expression and pump pretentious bullshit. These nuances are why this world is so taboo - and enticing - and deserves to be discussed. Welcome back. ~ Tales of Taboo is produced and narrated by Ali Weiss. Follow Ali on Instagram, TikTok, & Twitter @aliweissworld, and share your own confession (on or off the record) at confessions@aliweissworld.com. Audio production by Isabel McMahon & Chris Stathopolous. Theme song by Chris Stathopolous. Cover photo by Erika Flynn. Cover art by Kristen Montenegro.

Although the Bowery Hotel in New York City is a relatively new building, the land has a past with gang wars and is potentially built on top of old graves.  Be sure to check out the elevator at 1am to try to experience the paranormal!

Nikki and Pete bond over a similar situation they are going through and what it takes to deal with it. In the news we learn what Andrew would do with someone else's billion dollars, what an upside down pineapple indicates, about Norwegian sex positions and Pete Lee's world records. They play "The Blankest Thing I've Ever Done" and in the Final Thought they talk about bits on autopilot. Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.com

Daniel och Erik pratar om hur New York ideligen förändras och favoritrestauranger och barer försvinner.

It’s our favorite time of the year, New York Fashion Week! Although we are extremely upset it is virtual.    Nolan describes what it was like attending Rebecca Minkoff’s physical presentation during the pandemic. Minkoff was one of four designers doing physical presentations. It was safe & everyone was wearing a mask.    We go into an extremely honest review of some of the Vogue runway shows that we, unfortunately, were not there to see due to Covid-19. We review collections by Christian Callan, Tom Ford, Kim Shui, Sandy Lang, Collina Strada, Nicole Miller, Tomo Koizumi, and more.     We spill the details about our favorite fashion week parties: the Bowery Hotel, Bergdorf's parties, great food, and meeting Anna Wintour.    Time Stamp   [ 3:22 ] Show vs presentation   [ 4:30 ] Nolan’s experience attending Rebecca Minkoff’s presentation in 2020  [ 7:56 ] We review Vogue runway shows  [ 7:57 ] Christian Callan: Hair gel & spikes!   [ 11:52 ] Tom Ford: Dizzying pattern mixing, models look like they are having fun [14:08 ] Kim Shui: fashion crime!   [16:30 ] What is happening in Collina Strada’s video?   [ 20:40 ] Nicole Miller: Holly is impressed   [ 23:30 ] Tomo Koizumi: ALL Tulle and NOT for the masses    [ 32:41 ] Our favorite fashion week parties  Resources    Vogue   New York Fashion Week  Rebecca Minkoff   Kim Shui   Collina Strada’s video   Nicole Miller   Tomo Koizumi    Contact:   holly@fashioncrimespodcast.com   nolan@fashioncrimespodcast.com  

Eric Goode knew that he had an amazing show on his hands with "Tiger King," the seven-episode documentary series about Joe Exotic, the gay polygamist zookeeper in Oklahoma who is now serving a 22-year sentence in federal prison for a murder-for-hire plot against his chief critic, animal activist Carole Baskin. The Netflix show's colorful cast of eccentrics helped the show capture the cultural moment. "We had a captive audience for a show about captive tigers," he said. Goode has his own colorful past, which we explore in our wide-ranging talk. But it's his deep love for Ojai which informs much of his work. The founder of the Ojai Turtle Conservancy, Goode is a globe-trotting conservationist with a keen interest in preserving and protecting endangered species, especially the turtles and tortoises. He spent a portion of his childhood roaming the Sespe backcountry, when his father Frederick taught at Thacher School. We talk about how turtles, which have been around more than 200 million years - before dinosaurs entered the scene even - surviving apocalyptic events like meteor strikes and ice ages, are now up against their most formidable foe, a strange primate which evolved out of the Great Rift Valley less than 200,000 years ago, which now number 7.7 billion. Of the 350 or so turtle and tortoise species, half are endangered. We also talk about the southwestern pond turtle, native to Ojai's beautiful backcountry, was identified as a separate species in 2014, and how the Turtle Conservancy is working the Thacher School students for their science program. Goode emphasizes the Ojai's incredible natural beauty is intact only because of generations of environmentalists and activists who have staved off existential threats like uranium mines and landfills. But the coast is far from clear as the Trump Administration opened the Carrizo Plain, the last intact San Joaquin Valley eco-system, to oil drilling. Goode says that this pandemic is a stark warning to mankind. When we intrude and disrupt wild places, zoonotic pathogens, like Covid-19, make the jump to humans and kill millions. We also talk about Goode's other artistic enterprises, including the club Area, a New York City hotspot that combined art with nightlife in an innovative way that created its own community of important artists like Keith Haring, Jean-Michel Basquait, Julian Schnabel and was mentored by the ever-evolving Andy Warhol. It was a time of amazing brilliance and creativity, and Goode was in the middle of it all. Goode and two partners have bought the Oaks at Ojai from the Cluff family, which has owned the 60-room hotel since the 1970s. Closed since the Thomas Fire in late 2017, the downtown community is eager to see the hotel restored to its former glory by these experienced hoteliers. Goode owns several hotels in New York City, including the well-known Bowery Hotel and the Waverly Inn.

Cuddle up with something comforting because we’re talking about ~anxiety~ on today’s episode of Books and the City! More specifically, we discuss how we cope with our own personal forms of anxiety. Hopefully, at least some of it is useful, but most of it will certainly make you chuckle. And then we’re getting into the books. Once again, we have quite the variety for you, including a hyped, somewhat controversial book, a courtroom drama, a strange and delightful one, and a historical fiction (guess who read that one:).) Read on for timestamps, links, bar recs, and more! Also, got a perfect bar + book pairing in your city, OR any thoughts about the books we talked about in episode 6? Send us a note at booksandthecitypod@gmail.com!-------------> Libby just read: My Dark Vanessa by Kate Elizabeth Russell (20:00-42:51) https://www.harpercollins.com/9780062941503/my-dark-vanessa/ No NYC pairing for this one, but we recommend a bit of further reading if you’d like to learn more about the controversy surrounding this book. Start with Wendy C. Ortiz’s “Adventures in Publishing Outside the Gates,” (https://gay.medium.com/adventures-in-publishing-outside-the-gates-a06f089c372e) and then head over to Kate Elizabeth Russell’s “This Is Not A Love Story” (https://www.vulture.com/2020/02/my-dark-vanessa-kate-elizabeth-russell.html) Up next for Libby: Long Live the Tribe of Fatherless Girls by T Kira Madden Emily just read: Little Weirds by Jenny Slate (43:00-54:58) https://www.littlebrown.com/titles/jenny-slate/little-weirds/9780316485357/ You’ll want to pick this one up surrounded by an aesthetically pleasing, somewhat strange setting. We recommend you head to the East Village’s Beauty Bar, which is a nightclub that offers a quirky selection of cocktails, dance floors, and literal manicures. The perfect place to explore Jenny Slate’s brain! Up next for Emily: The New Me by Halle Butler Kayla just read: The Holdout by Graham Moore (54:59-1:06:05) https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/554758/the-holdout-by-graham-moore/ Drop by for a pint at The Malt House in the Financial District while you read this thriller. Afterward, take a quick walk a few blocks north to the NYC Supreme Court building! Jury duty or not, it's worth checking out. You may even recognize it from some of your favorite films and TV shows. Up next for Kayla: You Are Not Alone by Greer Hendricks and Sarah Peklanen Becky just read: The Kennedy Debutante by Kerri Maher (1:06:06-1:21:08) https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/572974/the-kennedy-debutante-by-kerri-maher/ Head to the Bowery Hotel's lobby bar for some live music and expert cocktails while you enjoy this book.

Find out how the bar community has rallied together to help in every way possible – from giving shifts to those without work to delivering ice to bars without power. Learn more about the New York Bartenders Ball, which goes down Monday, November 26th at the Bowery Hotel with Death & Co, Employees Only, PDT, Ward III, Dutch Kills, Dram, The Whiskey Brooklyn, Weather Up. Tickets are $100 and 100% of net proceeds go to Occupy:SandyNYCRelief & SSLF.org. Learn more and buy tickets here. This program was sponsored by GreatBrewers.com. “The love on this has been nation wide. Bartenders from other states are sponsoring tickets [to the New York Bartenders Ball] – they want to help New York too. These are people who may or may not know each other but have mutual respect.” [12:24] –Nino Cirabisi on The Speakeasy “We weren’t seeing Red Cross on the ground that much. That’s part of what we were affected by. We wanted to do something we we could make change.” [18:15] –Frank Cisneros on The Speakeasy
