On this week's show, Julia and Dana are joined by June Thomas for a decidedly feminist discussion. They start with Sorry, Baby, the debut feature from writer, director, and actor Eva Victor, about a young academic's life after a terrible trauma. The panel debates whether the film— which was a Sundance hit for A24 — is a tart, surprising traumedy or a frustratingly evasive experiment. Next, they get into Dear Ms.: A Revolution in Print, the HBO documentary about the pioneering feminist magazine. Finally, they take up a recent New York Times piece to determine whether the straight white male novelist is a thing of the past—and if we should care. Steve hops on the call to offer his token male perspective, naturally. In an exclusive plus bonus episode, the feminist discourse continues with a conversation about the oft overlooked fashion designer Claire McCardell, who is the subject of a recent biography Claire McCardell: The Designer Who Set Women Free by Elizabeth Evitts Dickinson and book review by our very own Julia Turner. Endorsements: Dana: The essay “It's Only An Island If You Look At It From The Water” by Elizabeth Cantwell in Bright Wall Dark Room about the film Jaws on its 50th anniversary. June : The action film Heads of State starring John Cena and Idris Elba, or “Mamma Mia! with explosions.” Julia - The new book Empire of the Elite by Michael Grynbaum about the magisterial publishing reign of Condé Nast.

In this episode of Americano, Freddy Gray speaks with New York Times writer and debut author Michael Grynbaum about his new book Empire of the Elite, a sweeping history of Condé Nast – the media empire that once dictated American taste, fashion, and celebrity. From Anna Wintour's carefully staged exit to the vanished world of glossy magazine grandeur, Grynbaum charts how the institution that once crowned cultural royalty is struggling to stay relevant in an era of TikTok stars and Substack columnists.On the podcast they explore the rise of celebrity culture, the influence of British identity on Condé's editorial direction, and the complex relationship between Donald Trump and the house that built (and later disowned) him.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1085: Today we're diving into a high-stakes Senate budget bill that could end EV credits early, Hyundai's record-breaking U.S. sales run, and Cloudflare's bold move to make AI bots pay to crawl. Show Notes with links:The Senate passed a budget bill by a razor-thin 51-50 vote, with VP JD Vance breaking the tie. The bill, which moves to the House next, packs major implications for automakers and dealers alike.As we covered yesterday, the current version would kill EV tax credits by Sept. 30, 2025.CAFE penalties for fuel economy non-compliance would be eliminated, gutting enforcement.Car loan interest (up to $10,000/year) could be deducted for certain U.S.-built vehicle purchases from 2025-2028.An earlier AI regulation ban, which might've restricted state autonomous vehicle laws, was cut from the final bill.Electrification Coalition: Ending EV credits “would cede control over the future of transportation to China.”Hyundai just posted its best-ever U.S. sales performance in the first half of 2025, powered by strong EV momentum and a major new plant in Georgia. The automaker says this is only the beginning.Hyundai sold 439,280 vehicles in H1 2025, a 10% YoY increase—the most since its 1986 U.S. debut.Q2 and June also set new records with 235K+ (+10%) and 70K (+3%) vehicles sold, respectively.The IONIQ 5 remains a top EV performer with 19,092 units sold YTD; IONIQ 9 logged 1,013 units since May.The new Metaplant in Georgia can build 300K vehicles/year—expandable to 500K—with both IONIQ 5 and IONIQ 9 rolling off the line.With leases as low as $179/month and free home chargers on offer, Hyundai is “building momentum with every mile,” said North America CEO Randy Parker.Cloudflare is positioning to be the premier AI gatekeeper by blocking AI bots by default for new websites and launching a paywall-style marketplace for AI crawlers.New sites on Cloudflare will automatically block AI bots unless given explicit permission.Their new “Pay per Crawl” lets publishers charge bots for different kinds of data use.Condé Nast, TIME, and The Atlantic are on board after seeing steep traffic drops from AI-generated answers.OpenAI bots reportedly scrape 1,700 times per referral, while Anthropic scrapes 73,000 to one. Google is only 14 per referral“This could split the internet,” one analyst said, noting the potential divide between premium and freely scraped content.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

It is ridiculous, and was always a major part of my campaign. Electric cars are fine, but not everyone should be forced to own one.

This week, we unpack the fashion spotted at the NBA Draft, including tonal suiting, bold jewelry and designer partnerships. Then, we take a look at Skims's new swimwear collaboration with Roberto Cavalli, a nostalgia-soaked collection that taps directly into the Italian house's early 2000s archive. Finally, we explore the return of men's sandals at Paris Men's Fashion Week, including Louis Vuitton's crocodile leather flip flops, and what the open-toed moment says about the future of men's fashion — and heatwave dressing. Then, Glossy's Zofia Zwieglinska sits down with Lisa Yamner Green, co-founder and chief brands officer at Daydream, a newly launched, AI-powered shopping platform aiming to overhaul the e-commerce experience. With previous leadership roles at Google, Condé Nast and The Yes, Green brings deep tech-meets-fashion insight into what it takes to rewire the online shopping journey — not with more options, but with smarter discovery.
Season 7 of Black Mirror is here, and it's not quite the digital doomfest you might expect. In this episode, I break down all six new stories—from the much-anticipated “USS Callister: Into Infinity” to the emotionally charged “Eulogy”—and explore how creator Charlie Brooker has shifted the series' tone. This season blends inventive sci-fi with more emotionally resonant, even hopeful, storytelling, marking a noticeable departure from the show's trademark bleakness. I'll dive into each episode's plot twists, standout performances, and the critical reception, discussing whether this “return to form” really signals a new era for Black Mirror. Whether you're a longtime fan or a newcomer, join me for a deep dive into the season's divisive but fascinating blend of classic cautionary tales, human connection, and maybe—just maybe—a little optimism in the digital age.Movie Reviews from Giant Mess Podcast - https://bit.ly/GiantMessMovieReviews TV Show Reactions from Giant Mess Podcast - https://bit.ly/GiantMessTV Funny Stories from Giant Mess Podcast - https://bit.ly/GiantMessFunnyStoriesABOUT NEAL LYNCH:Irish-Italian-American who graduated from a Catholic high school (even though I'm not Catholic), and a college known for producing doctors and lacrosse players, then became neither.

Childhood friends Linda Sawyer and Alison Matz prove that lifelong partnerships can create revolutionary businesses. After meeting at age seven during a second-grade spelling bee, these two women built impressive corporate careers—Linda as chairman of Deutsch advertising agency and Alison in publisher roles at Condé Nast and Meredith—before pivoting to entrepreneurship in their second act. Their frustration with ugly, bacteria-laden kitchen sponges sparked the creation of Skura Style, a disruptor brand that's transforming the $2 billion cleaning products industry with antimicrobial sponges that fade to indicate when it's time to replace them. What started as a passion project between two perfectionist friends has evolved into a premium brand partnership with actress Eva Mendes, who discovered their products during the pandemic and became a co-owner. Linda and Alison share candid insights about transitioning from corporate executives to hands-on entrepreneurs, the challenges of raising money as women, and why you can't have it all simultaneously—but you can build a "portfolio of experiences" that creates fulfilling career chapters. Their story offers inspiration for female business partnerships and practical advice for anyone considering an entrepreneurial leap later in life.

What does it really mean to be a “good woman”? For the controversial podcaster and writer Elise Loehnen, female goodness is a misery trap. And so reclaim their happiness, to make themselves whole, Loehnen says, women need to stop being good. The former goop executive and co-author of the upcoming Choosing Wholeness Over Goodness explains how the seven deadly sins reveal women's hidden conditioning, how the wellness industry became toxic, and why the Enneagram can help women embrace their full selves—including the darker, "unacceptable" parts they've been taught to suppress. five key takeaways 1. The "Good Woman" Performance is Exhausting Women are conditioned to suppress basic human instincts—never being tired, needing no praise, having compliant bodies, avoiding anger—which requires enormous energy and is driven by fear of social rejection.2. The Seven Deadly Sins Reveal Female Conditioning What society labels as "sins" (pride, envy, sloth, etc.) are actually normal human traits that women are taught to repress, creating a "punch card" for performing goodness to the world.3. Women Police Each Other Through Envy Instead of recognizing envy as a signal pointing toward what we want, women often use it destructively to tear down other women who have what they desire—like the backlash against Goop.4. The Drama Triangle Keeps Us Stuck Most people operate in victim-villain-hero dynamics, blaming others instead of taking responsibility. Breaking free requires recognizing these patterns and creating different conditions in your life.5. Wholeness Beats Goodness True liberation comes from integrating all parts of yourself—including the "darker" aspects you've been taught to hide—rather than performing an impossible standard of perfection.Elise Loehnen is a writer, editor, and podcast host who lives in Los Angeles with her husband, Rob, and their two sons, Max and Sam. She is the host of Pulling the Thread, a podcast focused on pulling apart the stories we tell about who we are—and then putting those threads back together. Current Work & Recent Publications: Elise is the author of the New York Times bestseller On Our Best Behavior. She has co-written thirteen books, five of which were New York Times bestsellers, including True and False Magic with psychiatrist Phil Stutz. Her upcoming co-authored Choosing Wholeness Over Goodness will be published in August. Podcast & Media: She hosts Pulling the Thread where she interviews cultural luminaries on the big questions of the day, including Dr. Gabor Maté, Dr. Temple Grandin, Dr. Harriet Lerner, Loretta Ross, Drs. John and Julie Gottman, Dr. Richard Schwartz, Joy Harjo, Dr. B.J. Miller, Nedra Tawwab, Dr. Suzanne Simard, Susan Cain, Heather McGhee, Dr. Riane Eisler, and Terry Real. Professional Background: Previously, she was the chief content officer of goop, where she co-hosted The goop Podcast and The goop Lab on Netflix, and led the brand's content strategy and programming, including the launch of a magazine with Condé Nast and a book imprint. Prior to goop, she was the editorial projects director of Conde Nast Traveler. Before Traveler, she was the editor at large and ultimately deputy editor of Lucky Magazine, where she also served as the on-air spokesperson, appearing regularly on shows like Today, E!, Good Morning America, and The Early Show.

Nicola reveals the behind-the-scenes challenges of redesigning legacy publications while balancing editorial vision with commercial realities, and how her team is actively "cleaning up" digital experiences to help readers focus on what matters.Key TakeawaysThe attention economy paradox: While bite-sized content dominates, there's a growing hunger for deep, immersive storytelling that requires time and focusDecision-making velocity: Newsrooms teach us that making imperfect decisions quickly is better than paralysis through perfectionismQuality curation over quantity: Success isn't about producing more content—it's about helping audiences find the one thing worth their timeCross-functional collaboration: Bringing together editorial, commercial, and design teams early prevents costly misalignment later in the processDigital experience hygiene: Removing intrusive advertising and distractions is essential for building loyal, returning audiencesLegacy brand advantage: Established publications have built-in trust that new brands struggle to achieve in today's noisy landscapeThe power of constraints: Tight deadlines force crystallized thinking and prevent endless iteration that often makes work worse, not betterApps as focus sanctuaries: Mobile applications provide controlled environments where readers can engage deeply without external distractionsManufactured deadlines: Creating artificial time pressure helps maintain the creative momentum and decision-making clarity found in newsroomsMindful consumption: Just as we choose healthy food for our bodies, we must consciously curate what we consume with our minds and attention Mindful Creative: How to understand and deal with the highs and lows of creative life, career and business Paperback and Kindle > https://amzn.to/4biTwFcFree audiobook (with Audible trial) > https://geni.us/free-audiobookSigned books https://novemberuniverse.co.ukLux Coffee Co. https://luxcoffee.co.uk/ (Use: PODCAST for 15% off)November Universe https://novemberuniverse.co.uk (Use: PODCAST for 10% off)

You've likely noticed lot of talk about media's “good ol' days” bubbling up recently: Two of the most buzzed about books in New York's literary circles are “When the Going Was Good,” Graydon Carter's dishy memoir on the industry's heyday, and the upcoming “Empire of the Elite,” a look back at Condé Nast's golden age. Last week, Radhika Jones — one of the last remaining American editors (reportedly) to pull a seven-figure salary — announced her departure from Vanity Fair, where she's been at the helm since 2017. This all begs the question: What lies ahead for magazines, and what power do legendary titles hold in 2025? This week, Alyssa is joined by Samantha Leach, associate director of special projects at Bustle and NYLON (and author of “The Elissas”), to discuss the state of both print and digital media in depth. Tune in to hear their insights about cover booking, as well as the politics and strategies behind it; the shift from journalists to creators when it comes to interviewing celebrities; how scrappiness in editorial can breed creativity and yield great results; the tricky topic of access to talent and dealing with increasing demands from publicists; how publishers can stay relevant during this time of major change; stealth sponsored content; why events are crucial for any media brand; why print is neither back nor dead, but a secret third thing, and so much more.

Jason Brenner is the RVP of Healthcare & Lifesciences at LiveRamp and has been working in the advertising and ad tech industries for over 20 years. He is leading efforts on building data connectivity solutions for the healthcare and life sciences industries. Prior to LiveRamp, Jason has held leadership positions at Placed, Verve, PayPal, Time Inc., The New York Times, and Condé Nast. In this episode… Companies in industries like healthcare and life sciences are leveraging data collaboration to collect valuable insights to drive innovation and improve customer experiences. However, for many organizations, balancing data collaboration with privacy, security, and regulatory compliance obligations remains a significant challenge. With consumer trust at stake, and the risks of improper data handling, how can companies balance innovation with responsible data use? Data collaboration in healthcare presents both opportunities and challenges. Companies need to adopt privacy-by-design principles and engage legal and privacy teams early in the process. By implementing techniques such as data tokenization and de-identification, businesses can extract valuable insights while minimizing privacy and security risks. That's why companies like LiveRamp are making this process easier with a platform that transforms personally identifiable information into non-reversible tokens, allowing organizations to use data responsibly while minimizing privacy and security risks. In this episode of She Said Privacy/He Said Security, Jodi and Justin Daniels speak with Jason Brenner, RVP of Healthcare and Life Sciences at LiveRamp, about the critical role of privacy and security in data collaboration. Jason shares insights on how organizations are navigating a complex and fragmented regulatory landscape, the importance of adopting privacy-by-design principles, and engaging legal and privacy teams early in the process. He also shares how businesses can minimize data retention risks, the role of de-identification and tokenization in protecting sensitive information, and the importance of building customer trust through responsible data practices.

When asked the question “What is it that you do?” sometimes the answer isn't so simple, and it's best to let the work speak for itself. Such has been the case for Kristen Naiman, the chief creative officer at The RealReal, who's worn many hats over the course of her career, from writer to editor to stylist to fashion executive. In this week's episode, Kristen unpacks her fascinating journey, from her first industry gigs that had her styling at a short-lived Condé Nast title in its heyday (who remembers Condé Nast Sports for Women?), as well as for Hanson, who brought her along to style and creative direct them on a world tour when she was in her early 20s. Tune in to hear more of Kristen's incredible lore, as well as what it was like learning the fashion and media ropes in the thriving community of creative people in downtown New York and through her friends at PAPER; how a DIY jean jacket she embroidered for Taylor Hanson got the attention of the Gap, and helped her get a job in its concept department in the peak Mickey Drexler days; why the ability to take the cultural temperature is the key to a brand's success; how she wound up working with Isaac Mizrahi for a decade as a fashion director, and how he taught her the importance of being unapologetically yourself; lessons from her subsequent decade-long stint at Kate Spade at the dawn of the digital era; why working in fashion requires a spidey sense and gut instinct that data can't fully replace; why brands are dipping into long form content and why The RealReal just launched a Substack; how a cold DM helped her get her job at The RealReal; how she hopes to change the relationship with how we consume fashion; what it was like editing Kim Hastreiter's forthcoming book, Stuff: A New York Life of Cultural Chaos, and much more.This episode was recorded in the podcast studio at The SQ @ 205 Hudson.

In chatting with Julia Dzafic, the powerhouse behind Lemon Stripes, a thriving lifestyle blog and Instagram account where she shares her take on motherhood, style, wellness, and recipes, host Nancy Sheed goes behind the scenes to find out how she does it. Julia shares her journey from working in corporate sales and marketing to becoming a full-time content creator and cookbook author. Key Lessons and Takeaways from Julia's Journey: From Political Science to Content Creator Julia's career path didn't start in blogging. She originally studied political science, thinking she'd work in public policy. However, a corporate job at Condé Nast led her to discover her passion for fashion, wellness, and content creation. Blogging Before Instagram Was a Thing Julia launched Lemon Stripes (originally called Lemons and Loafers) as a way to share healthy recipes and lifestyle tips with her health coaching clients. What started as a side project grew organically through Facebook and word-of-mouth before social media took off. Taking the Leap to Full-Time Content Creation After juggling a demanding corporate career with her rapidly growing blog, Julia faced a pivotal decision: to stay in marketing or take Lemon Stripes full-time. She gave herself a year to make it work, and eight years later, it's still thriving. The Power of Consistency & Community Julia attributes much of her success to showing up consistently. She blogged five days a week for nearly eight years and was always engaged in her community—attending industry events, collaborating with fellow creators, and staying true to her voice. Navigating Social Media Evolution From static Instagram posts to the rise of video content, Julia has adapted her strategy while staying true to what works for her. She focuses on her blog, Instagram, and newsletter rather than spreading herself too thin across platforms. Writing a Cookbook: A Dream and a Challenge Julia's cookbook Garden Grown emerged from her passion for homegrown food and community-driven content. While she loved the creative process, she candidly shares how writing and marketing a book was an all-consuming process. Prioritizing Mental Health & Boundaries in Content Creation Despite her love for sharing content, Julia acknowledges the pressures of social media. She emphasizes the importance of setting boundaries in what she shares. She also emphasized boundaries around how much time she spends consuming content to maintain balance and protect her well-being. Julia's journey is an inspiring lesson in passion, perseverance, and finding a sustainable way to create content and grow an engaging community. Whether you're an aspiring blogger, business owner, or content creator, her story is a reminder that success comes from consistency, adaptability, and staying true to what brings you joy.

On the SUPERWOMEN podcast this week, I'm joined by Kathleen Griffith, an award-winning business strategist and bestselling author, to talk about her book, “Build Like a Woman: The Blueprint for Creating a Business and Life You Love,” and her path to empowering female entrepreneurs. Kathleen started her career in corporate, working for big advertising agencies, but felt that her work was engineering insecurity in women rather than emboldening them to do more. She left and founded her own companies: BUILD, a global platform that guides women in transforming their businesses and lives, and Grayce & Co, a female-focused marketing and media consultancy. Her work has been featured in numerous publications, including TIME Magazine, Forbes, The New York Times, Business Insider, and The Wall Street Journal, and she has been recognized as a “Top 40 Disruptor” by ADWEEK, “Leading Woman in Business” by Fast Company, “Creative Innovator” by Condé Nast, “Most Powerful Woman” by Fortune, and more. In this episode, she reflects on finding opportunities in life's challenges, building confidence through setting and achieving goals, and why we, as women, need to forge the right mindset—not just the skillset—to turn our dreams into a reality.
