Podcasts about Coco Chanel

Thời còn trẻ, nhà thiết kế Paul Poiret nổi tiếng không kém gì Coco Chanel. Tạp chí thời trang lừng danh Vogue từng so sánh tài năng của ông ngang hàng với Christian Dior. Nhưng ngày nay, tên tuổi của Paul Poiret lại bị lãng quên, cho dù gương mặt tiên phong của trường phái Art Déco đã có công thay đổi thời trang phái nữ một cách sâu rộng. Tên tuổi của Paul Poiret gắn liền với thời kỳ Belle Époque đầu thế kỷ XX, thời Paris là kinh đô xa hoa, ngập tràn sáng tạo, phù phiếm lễ hội. Xu hướng thời trang thịnh hành lúc bấy giờ là những chiếc váy « lưng ong » đề cao những đường cong bằng chiếc áo corset nịt ngực. Với tư cách là học trò của hai nhà thiết kế lớn thời bấy giờ là Jacques Doucet và Charles Frederick Worth, ông Paul Poiret đã phá vỡ khuôn thước thẩm mỹ này, giúp « tháo gỡ » những ràng buộc trên cơ thể phụ nữ bằng cách thiết kế những kiểu váy với đường thằng đơn giản hơn (kiểu áo Joséphine, vợ của hoàng đế Napoléon). Chiếc áo nịt ngực thắt lưng (corset) nhường chỗ lại cho một dải ruy băng mềm mại, giúp cho phụ nữ đi đứng thoải mái. Trong vai trò của một người tiên phong (nổi danh cùng thời với bà Jeanne Lanvin), nhà thiết kế Paul Poiret đã ý thức rất sớm về tiềm năng của thương hiệu, ngoài trang phục ông cho sản xuất thêm các chai nước hoa, phụ kiện thời trang và nhiều sản phẩm khác. Để vinh danh tài năng này, Viện bảo tàng Nghệ thuật Trang trí ở quận 1, Paris tổ chức một cuộc triển lãm lớn « Paul Poiret :La mode est une fête » (Thời trang như lễ hội) từ đây cho tới trung tuần tháng Giêng năm 2026. Trả lời phỏng vấn RFI ban tiếng Pháp, cô Marie-Sophie Caron de la Carrière trưởng ban điều hành triển lãm và đồng thời là giám tuyển nghệ thuật cho biết đôi nét về thân thế sự nghiệp của ông Paul Poiret. Marie-Sophie Caron de la Carrière: Paul Poiret (1879-1944) là dân Paris chính hiệu, ông sinh trưởng trong một gia đình khá giả, bố ông à một nhà buôn vải cho nên ông đã lớn lên trong thế giới của gấm vóc, lụa là. Từ khi còn nhỏ, ông đã nuôi mộng trở thành một nhà thiết kế thời trang. Sự kiện quan trọng thúc đẩy ông chọn nghề này là khi cùng với song thân, ông đi xem cuộc Triển lãm Toàn cầu tại Paris năm 1889. Ông có kể lại điều này trong quyển hồi ký của mình. Vào lúc ấy, ông khám phá được nhiều nền văn hóa mà không cần phải đi đâu xa : nguyên tắc chính của Triển lãm Toàn cầu là mỗi quốc gia tham dự đều có một không gian triển lãm riêng để giới thiệu những nét hay nhất trong văn hóa nước nhà. Chính điều này đã khơi dậy sự tò mò, cũng như niềm khao khát được đi xa và khám phá những chân trời khác biệt. Những kiểu áo dài caftan của Thổ Nhĩ Kỳ, khăn xếp Ba Tư hay kimono của Nhật Bản đều gợi hứng rất nhiều cho Paul Poiret thiết kế các kiểu áo như váy hình chụp đèn, áo đầm suông, áo lụa rũ xếp. Nơi Paul Poiret, các kiểu áo may thẳng thon dài mềm mại, không còn siết chặt vòng eo khiến cho vóc dáng phụ nữ không còn giống như chiếc đồng hồ cát. Cuộc triển lãm lần này nhằm giúp cho giới trẻ thời nay khám phá (lại) nhà thiết kế thời trang Paul Poiret, thực sự là một nhân vật không may đã bị lãng quên, chính những sản phẩm của thương hiệu này giờ đây cũng không còn tồn tại nữa. Trong cuộc triển lãm này, có trích dẫn câu nói nổi tiếng của nhà thiết kế người Pháp Christian Dior về bậc đàn anh, theo đó ông Paul Poiret đã bước vào ngành thời trang cao cấp để rồi khuynh đảo mọi thứ. Vậy thì ông Paul Poiret đã thay đổi điều gì ? Cô Marie-Sophie Caron de la Carrière, giám tuyển nghệ thuật nhận xét : Marie-Sophie Caron de la Carrière : Theo tôi, ông Paul Poiret đã đem lại hai sự thay đổi lớn cho làng thời trang. Đầu tiên hết, ông đã hoàn toàn biến đổi vóc dáng của phụ nữ : quan niệm về nữ tính không chỉ được gắn liền với những đường cong trên cơ thể của người đàn bà. Từ khi mới vào nghề, ông đã muốn khuynh đảo những khuôn thước có sẵn cũng như những người bạn họa sĩ của ông đã từng làm với trường phái « dã thú ». Để phá vỡ truyền thống của chiếc corset, ông đã trao dồi tay nghề với Jacques Doucet và sau đó nữa là với Charles Frederick Worth. Hiệu thời trang « House of Worth » chuyên phục vụ giới quý tộc châu Âu hoặc giới thượng lưu ở Mỹ thời bấy giờ. Các kiểu váy xòe, với nhiều thước vải khiến cho phụ nữ không dễ chuyển động, đứng ngồi. Việc lược bỏ các chi tiết rườm rà, thiết kế từ những năm 1910 những đường nét vuông vức thẳng đứng, khiến cho Paul Poiret trở thành gương mặt tiên phong của trường phái Art Déco, thịnh hành từ năm 1925. Yếu tố quan trọng thứ nhì là Paul Poiret không những thay đổi hình dáng của phụ nữ mà còn thay đổi luôn vai trò của một nhà thiết kế thời trang. Nhà thiết kế không còn đơn thuần may quần áo theo đơn đặt hàng, mà thực sự góp phần làm cho cuộc sống tươi đẹp hơn. Ngoài thiết kế trang phục, Paul Poiret còn thành lập một công ty chuyên về trang trí nội thất, sản xuất nước hoa và mỹ phẩm. Đây là một thay đổi lớn trong ngành thời trang, khi nhà thiết kế có một tầm nhìn và lối tiếp cận toàn diện hơn về phụ nữ cũng như môi trường sống của họ. Paul Poiret đã sáng tạo ra điều mà thời nay được gọi là « liefestyle » (có nghĩa là lối sống hay phong cách sống). Các nhà thiết kế sau đó như Giogio Armani hay Ralph Lauren đều nâng lifestyle lên hàng nghệ thuật, rồi trở thành nhưng vị đại sứ toàn cầu cho gu thẩm mỹ thời trang. Thời trang không còn đơn thuần là quần áo, mà còn thể hiện một lối sống bao gồm cả thói quen và sở thích, từ chuyện ăn uống đến chơi thể thao hay giải trí. Chỉ riêng về điểm này có thể nói là ông Paul Poiret là một nhân vật tiên phong, đi trước thời của mình trước ngày đời của các thuật ngữ như lifestyle (phong cách sống) hoặc marketing (tiếp thị). Nhân cuộc triển lãm tại Bảo tàng Nghệ thuật trang trí ở Paris, nhiều mùi nước hoa đã được tái tạo hơn một thế kỷ sau lần phát hành đầu tiên, như mùi hương Rosine mang tên con gái của Paul Poiret hay là kiểu chai nước hoa « Le Fruit Défendu » (Trái cấm) ăn khách vào đầu thế kỷ XX. Paul Poiret đã vào nghề thiết kế gần 10 năm trước Chanel. Ngoài đời, hai công ty này là đối thủ cạnh tranh, với phong cách thời trang hoàn toàn khác biệt. Câu hỏi đặt ra là tại sao Chanel nay vẫn là một thương hiệu toàn cầu trong khi Paul Poiret giờ đây lại không còn tồn tại ? Marie-Sophie Caron de la Carrière : Một hiệu thời trang thực sự tồn tại khi nhà thiết kế có được một sự hậu thuẫn vững chắc về mặt tài chính. Chẳng hạn như hiệu Yves Saint Laurent tồn tại được lâu nhờ vào ông Pierre Bergé. Còn trong trường hợp của hiệu Chanel, gia đình Wertheimer, qua thỏa thuận hợp tác với Chanel, đã giúp cho thương hiệu trải qua bao sóng gió. Về phía Paul Poiret, ông đã không lập quan hệ đối tác với bất cứ nhà đầu tư nào, mục đích của ông là duy trì tính độc lập, quyền kiểm soát công ty, để làm theo ý mình. Vấn đề ở đây là Paul Poiret đã không trông rộng nhìn xa : do không đủ nguồn tài chính, công ty Paul Poiret đã sụp đổ khá nhanh sau khi Đệ nhất Thế chiến bùng nổ, thương hiệu này rốt cuộc đã biến mất. Một trong những điểm thành công trong cuộc triển lãm về Paul Poiret, là ban tổ chức đã tạo ra được một cuộc đối thoại giữa các tác phẩm thời xưa với các sáng tạo thời nay, cho thấy được tầm ảnh hưởng của ông lên thế hệ nghệ sĩ lừng danh đi sau kể cả Elsa Schiaparelli, Yves Saint-Laurent hay Castelbaljac. Các bộ sưu tập của họ từng gợi hứng ít nhiều từ những tác phẩm của bậc tiền bối. Thực tế cho thấy thương hiệu này không còn tồn tại, nhưng trước sự đóng góp của Paul Poiret cho làng thời trang, thủ đô Paris ,tuy không thể trả lại cho hoàng đế César một ngai vàng, nhưng vẫn khôi phục phần nào ánh hào quang của một tài năng không may bị chìm vào quên lãng.

This week, the girls are joined by Arabelle Sicardi, writer, image theorist, and author of The House of Beauty: Lessons from the Image Industry. Lola and Meagan confess the cosmetic procedures they've each had, and Arabelle explores how the beauty industry preys on our deepest fears, giving us a false sense of control and training us to worship ideals that are impossible to reach. They reflect on the high rates of plastic surgery in Utah and the LDS church, the gendered differences between the beauty industry and biohacking, and the relationship of beauty to power. Arabelle breaks down the cultiness of influencer brand trips, Coco Chanel's forgotten Nazi ties, and how easy it can be to isolate in luxury, detaching from the unseen global exploitation within the beauty industry. Plus: why beauty's true value lies not in perfection, but in human connection.

Interview Date: March 23rd, 2025Episode Summary:This episode spotlights Robert Garland, Artistic Director of Dance Theatre of Harlem (DTH)—former principal dancer, DTH's first resident choreographer, and a Juilliard BFA graduate. Beyond the concert stage, Garland's work spans New York City Ballet, The Royal Ballet, Oakland Ballet, and commercial projects from Sesame Street to Nike and the NAACP Image Awards.Garland traces DTH's roots to Arthur Mitchell's 1969 vision and explains how Mitchell's lecture-demonstration model built audiences and access. He folds in a vivid business/history lesson on George Balanchine—from the Ballets Russes and Coco Chanel's short ballet skirt to the Harlem Renaissance's jazz influence that helped shape neoclassicism and, crucially, how smart repertoire and audience-building choices drove growth. On the business side, Garland stresses that relationships power opportunities and fundraising—“contacts become contracts”—and lifts the curtain on the theater's “cottage industry” (development, marketing, production, stage management). For dancers, he offers pragmatic guidance: cultivate musicianship and form, be multifaceted (social, lighting, admin), and understand cycles of work—pace your week so you peak for shows. He unpacks today's video-first auditions, urging care with presentation, while affirming many legitimate pathways (college, company route, or self-directed study).Show notes:(0:00) – Robert Garland introduction & career highlights(09:41) – Dance Theatre of Harlem origin & mission(14:55) – Juilliard audition story and scholarship journey(16:56) – Balanchine, Coco Chanel, and neoclassicism explained(25:51) – “Contacts = Contracts”: relationships fuel opportunities(33:16) – Careers beyond stage: marketing, production, education(38:27) – Arts education builds empathy and compassion(42:34) – Audition process and rise of video submissions(51:41) – Transition into commercial/TV work with hip-hop artists(1:12:11) – From dancer to choreographer to creative leadershipBiography:Artistic Director Robert Garland was a member of the Dance Theatre of Harlem Company from 1985-1998, achieving the rank of principal dancer. After creating a work for the DTH School Ensemble, Arthur Mitchell invited Mr. Garland to create a work for The Dance Theatre of Harlem Company and appointed him the organization's first Resident Choreographer.

Denna vecka dyker Fanny Ekstrand och Carin Falk ner i minimalismens historia – från Coco Chanel och Bauhaus till 80/90‑talets Comme des Garçons, Helmut Lang, Calvin Klein, Jil Sander och Margiela – och landar i dagens quiet luxury vs. ny maximalism. De pratar den skandinaviska estetiken, Totême som stilmarkör och varför “tidlöst” ofta är kod för kontroll och perfektion. Du får också en konkret karta för att hitta din personliga stil utan att fastna i moodboards. Silhuetter, material, färger och hur garderoben kan funka i verkliga livet!

Les Fashion Weeks commencent un peu partout dans le monde et avec elles cette question : où sont les femmes ? Sur les podiums, elles sont omniprésentes, mais en coulisses, les hommes qui dirigent les grandes maisons de couture sont beaucoup plus nombreux. Dans les dernières sélections de directeurs artistiques, seuls deux noms de femmes émergent contre une dizaine d'hommes – et bien peu de diversité. Laure Manent s'entretient avec la journaliste mode Saveria Mendella, créatrice du podcast "Les gens de la mode" pour comprendre si l'époque des créatrices illustres comme Coco Chanel, Elsa Schiaparelli ou Vivienne Westwood est révolu et ce qui fait la différence entre la mode créée par un homme et celle imaginée par une femme.

In this episode, Pauline sits down with her longtime friend Sasha Grutman — a seasoned finance professional and cultivated aesthete — for a conversation on the power of curation, or what Pauline calls “the art of intelligence.” Drawing from Coco Chanel's maxim that “elegance is refusal” to the Latin roots of curare (“to take care of”), Pauline and Sasha explore how thoughtful curation brings clarity, coherence, and meaning to our lives.At once practical and philosophical, this show reveals that curation is not simply an elitist pastime, but an essential life skill — a way for us all to focus our attention, express our identity, and enhance the quality, beauty, and joy in our lives.

As the new feature film Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale opens worldwide, we see for the final time the elegant, glamorous and always dramatic world of Lord and Lady Grantham and their family.  We also have a chance to look back at the evolving fashion and hairstyles of Downton's characters as they have evolved from the series debut set in 1912 up to this final film set in 1930.  Joining The Gilded Gentleman table to trace this fashion history is listener favorite Dr. Elizabeth L. Block, who takes us from the high Edwardian style we saw with Violet, the Dowager Countess, to the body hugging slinky styles of Coco Chanel we see on Lady Mary in this latest film. We also explore the flapper look, the influence of war years on fashion and how the great cultural forces such as the Ballets Russes all influence the styles of the Crawley sisters. And we even take a look downstairs and talk about how styles for domestic staff were shifting as well. This episode was produced and edited by Kieran Gannon.

Leticia Vaquero y Sergio Crespo recuerdan la trayectoria de la diseñadora de alta costura francesa.

La Suisse n'est pas qu'un repère de célébrités en retraite et de gauchistes en quête de tranquillité dans une Europe où ils sont pourchassés. Le 25 août 1944, Paris est libéré. Quatre jours plus tard, Gabrielle Chanel, très célèbre créatrice de mode, est arrêtée, interrogée et très rapidement relâchée grâce à l'appui d'un certain… Winston Churchill. En septembre de la même année, elle décide de quitter la France et se réfugie à Lausanne. Elle y retrouve son amant, un espion allemand, pour poursuivre quelques années encore une relation amoureuse qui lui a déjà valu des soupçons de collaboration avec le nazisme. Célèbre et riche, Coco Chanel passe huit ans en exil volontaire dans la capitale vaudoise. Entre les suites des palaces de la Riviera et une maison qu'elle loue à Lausanne, elle fréquente le petit cercle des collaborateurs en fuite. Un parcours que la journaliste Marie Fert a retracé dans son livre, Gabrielle Chanel, les années d'exil, paru aux Editions Slatkine en 2021. https://www.slatkine.com/fr/editions-slatkine/74905-book-07211030-9782832110300.html

In our conclusion of the life and times of Coco Chanel, we travel through the years 1936 to the end of her life in 1971, and a little beyond too. With the passing of time, more has come to light about Coco's affair with a German spy, and her associated work with the Nazis through WW2. Surprisingly, there are no real consequences ultimately from this time, and after laying low for a while, Coco has a whole second act and comeback in the United States. She is a lady with a complicated life and a complicated legacy. Continue your investigation with ad-free and bonus episodes on Patreon!

In this continuation of the life and times of Coco Chanel, we take the legendary designer through the Roaring 20s to the mid-1930s. This was an action packed time in her life, including even more expansion into a fragrance line, an entrée into London high society, a few high profile love affairs, two bad business deals, and a love nest in Scotland as well. Ride along for this decade plus in her life, possibly the best one as the shadows of war are creeping in for our finale, in which Coco will do a little bit more than dabble into Fascism.

Ever feel like you're doing all the right marketing things but still hitting a ceiling in your home inspection business? You're not alone. In this exploration of innovative marketing strategies, we dive deep into how Coco Chanel's revolutionary approach to fashion provides a perfect blueprint for home inspectors looking to stand out. What made Chanel remarkable wasn't that she completely shattered conventions—she simply bent them in ways that felt both novel and familiar. She designed pants for women when they only wore dresses, but maintained femininity in the design, creating something revolutionary that still felt accessible.This same principle applies perfectly to our inspection businesses. When we follow standard marketing playbooks—regular social media content, professional websites, office presentations—we can build successful companies up to a point. But breaking through plateaus requires thoughtful innovation. The most successful inspectors I've encountered find that sweet spot between the familiar and the novel, like the southern inspector who became his market's go-to professional by offering radon testing when no competitors did.The conversation explores practical ways to implement this "Chanel approach" in your business through both service offerings and marketing presentation. We examine when to innovate (start with just 10% of your marketing), how to identify opportunities others miss, and—crucially—how to avoid innovations that seem exciting but lack market demand. For every successful Coco Chanel, countless others failed by introducing concepts people weren't ready for.Ready to break through your business plateau?

Together, they explore Coco's difficult early years -- how they shaped her tastes and fueled her rise.They also confront her wartime affiliations with the Nazi party, affairs with powerful men, conflicts with her longtime business partners, and bitter rivalries with other designers like Elsa Schiaparelli and Paul Poiret.Finally, they reflect on how her successor, Karl Lagerfeld, rescued the brand from near obscurity, how he transformed it with his own bold vision and unapologetic flair, and how Coco herself might react to her brand today as well as the fashion industry that she once ruled.

  Unwritten Style: How Street Influence Frees Us from Fashion Rules with Dawn Pedersen, Co-Founder & Creative Director at Trendzine/TRENDZOOM In this episode, I'm joined by Dawn Pedersen—trend forecaster, co-founder of Trendzine, and Creative Director at TRENDZOOM. Dawn's expertise is in reading the cultural landscape: she draws inspiration from street style, mood, and the echoes of past trends to predict where fashion is heading next. We dive into the powerful influence of what real people are wearing on the street and how this collective mood shapes not just trends, but how we all feel about getting dressed. As Dawn explains, street style has become a global language of self-expression, reflecting shifts in music, art, technology, and culture.  Fashion is no longer dictated by magazines or the runway alone—instead, inspiration is everywhere, and anyone can find their people and their style online. We discuss the liberating shift away from being told what we “should” wear, and how digital communities give us the freedom to curate a wardrobe that feels authentic and personal. This episode is packed with insight on building a wardrobe that reflects who you are, not just what's “in.” We also go on a journey through fashion history, from Coco Chanel's revolutionary impact in the 1920s—freeing women from restrictive clothing and championing comfort and self-expression—to the present day, where every era's mood can be recognized in a single photograph. We explore how fashion is always a product of its time and place, influenced by everything from film to politics to street culture. Key Topics: How street style predicts and reflects the collective mood The end of being “slaves to trends” and the rise of authentic personal style The digital revolution in finding style inspiration and community Fashion as a mirror of cultural, social, and artistic movements The ongoing legacy of icons like Coco Chanel in shaping how we dress today Whether you're a fashion lover, a trend-watcher, or just want to feel more at home in your own wardrobe, this episode will help you see your clothes—and your influences—in a whole new light.

Does the life of famed fashion designer Coco Chanel really qualify as a true crime story, or is it more a narrative of survival and resistance? Some think she's a feminist icon, some consider her a Nazi spy. Whatever the case, her cultural influence is impossible to deny, and her life story couldn't be a better fit for Tres Paris Month. Christopher and Eric serve up the riveting documentary film COCO CHANEL: UNBUTTONED, which has the special distinction of including scores of glamorous, fabulous interview subjects with whom they'd kill to have lunch.

Send us a textThe seemingly simple question of what we wear to bed reveals surprising insights into our personalities, cultural history, and family dynamics. From matching sets to mismatched comfort wear, our pajama preferences speak volumes about who we are.Did you know the word "pajama" originated from Hindi? Or that in Western culture, pajamas were initially a status symbol demonstrating wealth and cleanliness? These comfy garments have a surprisingly rich history that we unpack with enthusiasm and personal anecdotes.We share our contrasting sleepwear approaches - one of us exclusively wears coordinated matching sets while the other prefers oversized t-shirts paired with men's pajama pants (for the essential pockets!). This difference extends to when we change into pajamas - some of us switch early in the evening while others reserve them strictly for sleeping. We explore family traditions around matching Christmas pajamas and how these evolve as children grow up, wanting more independence in their sleepwear choices.The conversation takes unexpected turns as we discuss surprising statistics (74% of people sleep in pajamas multiple times per week - what about the rest?), celebrity influence on pajama styles (thank you, Coco Chanel!), and practical concerns about different sleepwear options. Along the way, we try an unusual pink lemonade Kit Kat and share our weekly highs and lows, creating the intimate, conversational experience our listeners love.Follow us on Instagram and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts for more candid conversations about life's everyday experiences and the surprising depths they reveal!Mike Haggerty Buick GMCRight on the corner, right on the price!

Guest: David Heinemeier Hansson, CTO & co-owner of 37signals and creator of Ruby on Rails 37signals CTO David Heinemeier Hansson has organized his life around his passions: Writing, racing sports cars, and coding. “ Why aren't we all doing that?” he wonders. “Why aren't we all trying to optimize our life in such a way that much of it is enjoyable?”Part of the problem, David argues, is that it's impossible to find a creative or productive flow inside of mainstream work culture. Open offices, managerial over-hiring, and sloppy scheduling prevents people from reaching a flow state.“40 hours a week is plenty than most people,” he says. “... So many people today are focused on just adding more and more hours. They're not thinking about how those hours are spent.” Chapters:(01:19) - 24 Hours of Le Mans (06:48) - Amateurs in sports car racing (10:54) - Flow and meditation (15:25) - Mundane bulls**t (18:14) - Optimizing for flow (21:09) - Calendars and open offices (24:30) - Full-time managers (29:06) - Small companies (32:20) - Selfishness and work (40:21) - Taking other people's money (45:43) - Temptation (49:49) - Moderately rich (55:19) - “The day I became a millionaire” (58:56) - The hassle (01:03:58) - Achieving the dream (01:08:34) - Shopify and Tobias Lütke (01:14:50) - Trade-offs and downsides (01:18:43) - The impact of Ruby on Rails (01:22:02) - “I love being wrong” (01:25:37) - DEI and illegal drugs (01:29:49) - Not hiring (01:30:35) - What “grit” means to David Mentioned in this episode: TikTok, Minecraft, Mario Kart, Formula One, NASCAR, Lewis Hamilton, the NBA, Tesla Model S, Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, Steve McQueen, Jason Fried, Tetris, Bullshit Jobs: A Theory by David Graeber, Elon Musk and Twitter, the Dunbar number, Zappos, Google, Adam Smith, Stripe, Meta, Jeff Bezos, Basecamp, Zapier, 1Password, GitHub, SpaceX, private jets, Aesop, the Pagani Zonda, the Porsche Boxster, Lamborghini, Coco Chanel, LeBron James, Hey, Steve Jobs, Michael Arrington and TechCrunch, Y Combinator, Dr. Thomas Sowell,Punished by Rewards by Alfie Kohn, Grit by Angela Duckworth, and LEGO. Links:Connect with DavidTwitterLinkedInConnect with JoubinTwitterLinkedInEmail: grit@kleinerperkins.com Learn more about Kleiner PerkinsThis episode was edited by Eric Johnson from LightningPod.fm
