Diamonds are changing and luxury is being rewritten.In this episode, Caroline Stanbury talks openly about her new venture representing Astraea, a next-generation lab-grown diamond brand redefining what modern luxury really means.Joined by Nathalie Morrison, they break down why the future of diamonds isn't mined from the ground but created with intention, innovation, and transparency. From ethics and sustainability to value, beauty, and shifting consumer mindsets, this is an honest conversation about why smart women are choosing differently and why the diamond industry is being forced to evolve.Discover more about Astraea and the new era of diamonds at: https://www.astrealondon.com/Luxury isn't disappearing.It's getting smarter.

Pack your bags (and maybe a clothespin for your nose) because this week on Hysteria 51 we're going interplanetary and intestinal.First up: luxury travel has officially left Earth. A startup is taking reservations—yes, real money—to be among the first guests at a proposed hotel on the Moon. We're talking deposits that can range from “casual quarter-mil” to a full $1,000,000 just to hold your spot, with the total trip potentially climbing far beyond that once you factor in the whole “rocket commute” situation. It's space tourism with a side of “do they validate parking in low gravity?” Then we come crashing back down to Earth with science that sounds like it was invented in a middle-school cafeteria: the idea that “sniffing farts” could help protect your brain. Under the jokes is a real research thread around hydrogen sulfide (the “rotten egg” gas associated with flatulence) and how it may help protect brain cells in Alzheimer's-related mouse studies—less “weaponized crop dusting,” more “biochemistry doing something weird and promising.” So if you like your weird news with equal parts sci-fi dreams and “please don't say that out loud,” this episode is your perfect storm: moon hotel reservations, space-tourism absurdity, and the unexpectedly serious science of stink.Links & Resources

Send us a textIn honor of Audre Lorde's 1985 essay, "Poetry Is Not a Luxury," I devoted the mini Holiday Break episodes of Talking About Kids to poetry about the holiday season and issues related to kids. For this final mini episode, I read a poem by Lorde, titled “Hanging Fire,” which is an honest and moving portrayal of adolescence. A link to the poem is at talkingaboutkids.com.

What really happens behind the scenes at Warrior Time? In this episode, Chris Warnes breaks down how we actually buy, sell, and vet luxury watches, from Rolex and Omega to Audemars Piguet and beyond. This isn't a highlight reel or a sales pitch. It's an honest look at the standards, decisions, and process that protect collectors when serious money is involved.We cover how luxury watches are sourced, how authenticity and condition are verified, what makes a watch worth buying (or walking away from), and why reputation matters more than hype in the secondary market.OUR CHRONO24 STORE: https://www.chrono24.com/dealer/warriortime/

Fully & Completely: ReduxEpisode 103— Road Apples (1991)A presentation of The Tragically Hip Podcast SeriesHosted by jD and Greg LeGrosIf Up to Here was the sound of a band kicking the barroom doors open, Road Apples is what happens when they walk in knowing the room already belongs to them.Released in February 1991, this record lands right in the middle of a cultural earthquake — Nevermind, Ten, The Black Album, Out of Time, Loveless, Blood Sugar Sex Magik. Rock music is shedding its hairspray, sharpening its teeth, and looking for something that feels real again.And here come The Tragically Hip — louder, darker, more confident, and somehow more mysterious than ever.In this episode of Fully & Completely: Redux, jD and Greg LeGros dig into Road Apples as the moment where the band perfects their bar-band bravado — and then quietly starts planning their escape from it. Produced once again by Don Smith, recorded largely live off the floor, this album sounds like five guys in a room who trust each other completely… and aren't afraid to push.We talk about:Why 1991 might be the most important year in modern musicRoad Apples as the band's first true leap — not just forward, but outwardThe brilliance of Little Bones as an all-time album openerGord Downie's emerging lyrical mythos — cab drivers, King Lear, Macbeth, and prison-yard staresHow Cordelia and The Luxury reveal a darker, more literary HipWhy Long Time Running becomes one of the band's first truly communal songsThe quiet devastation of Fiddler's GreenAnd how Last of the Unplucked Gems gently closes the door on one era… and opens anotherThis is the album where the confidence hardens, the writing deepens, and the band stops sounding like anyone else. The last gasp of their blues-rock skin — and the first clear signal that something bigger is coming.School's still in session.And things are starting to get interesting.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/tthtop40/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

This episode of The Sidebar Podcast is unapologetically remedial — in the best way.From admitting baddie tendencies and questioning how “straight” straight really is, to awkward neighbor interactions and conversations that spiral fast, this episode leans fully into chaos, honesty, and uncomfortable truths.The conversation moves through culture, politics, and identity — touching on Black conservatism, luxury and Black culture, ICE being out of control, and what it means to be “high functioning” in a society that keeps moving the goalposts. There's commentary on sports, politics, internet moments, and unexpected takes that only make sense once you hear them out loud.If you've ever felt like everyone else got the syllabus and you didn't — welcome.This one's remedial.0:00 — Intro1:48 — Royce admits he is a baddie2:58 — Straightness is a spectrum (because… porn)7:07 — Do you speak to your neighbors?10:09 — “A white woman molested my dog”14:14 — John Harbaugh fired21:24 — Lamar doesn't like Baltimore (Leise reacts)24:26 — Black people are really conservatives35:00 — Luxury and Black culture53:00 — ICE is out of control1:08:00 — Remedial, high functioning, Donald Trump & Cuban MAGA1:22:17 — Huntrix is dope1:23:22 — Outro / Wrap-up

Adam Beckerink is now formally charged with murder in the death of his wife, Cailtyn Tracey, in October 2024. Chicago Police got a call in October 2024 that Tracey's pulverized body was at the bottom of a stairwell in Beckerink's condo building with her foot severed.

Welcome back, WIFs!In this cozy catch-up episode, sisters Lauren and Michelle reflect on the sweetness of the post-holiday pause, sip Costco hot green tea, and talk about what they're intentionally caring less about—from anxiety-inducing college admissions noise to that pesky whisker. They share why the week between Christmas and New Year is pure magic, unpack a meaningful New Year ritual that led to the word correspondence, and explore what it looks like to go slower and focus on tiny, thoughtful details.The conversation naturally flows into a hot topic close to their hearts: why 2026 feels like the year of analog, from puzzles and snail mail to vinyl, planners, and real phone calls. Plus, there's sponsor love, cozy media recs, and Simple Joys of the Week—including lingering Christmas lights and heartfelt handwritten notes that prove written words still matter.Press play, snuggle up, and settle into this comforting, intentional, and very cozy conversation.Resources:2026 PlannersCostco Green TeaWhy Everyone Is Logging Off in 2026PLG Maven Use our code Cozy Maven for 10% off.

This Best-Of episode spotlights founders who stopped waiting for permission and chose to build anyway. These stories highlight what happens when creators are overlooked, underestimated, or even excluded from traditional systems. Instead of fitting into spaces that were not built for them, they created their own ecosystems rooted in ownership, culture, and authenticity. You'll hear how conviction, self-trust, and long-term vision fuel innovation. This compilation is for anyone building without validation, navigating cultural gatekeeping, or creating something new because what they needed did not exist.

What if luxury isn't about wealth, exclusivity, or expensive experiences at all?   In this episode, the first of a three-part series, I explore the energetics of leadership and the empowerment we want to embody as school leaders. This isn't another "how-to" leadership training. This is an exploration of who you're being versus what you're doing.   Join me today to hear how education itself is both essential and a luxury, and why the privilege of being in the field of education is something worth celebrating. We'll dive into how leadership could feel luxurious - not in terms of expensive cars or fancy vacations - but in the satisfaction, fulfillment, and pride you experience every single day.   Find the full episode show notes and transcript, click here: https://angelakellycoaching.com/420   Keep up with me on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/akellycoaching/

Many people consider the Rolex Submariner to be the ultimate luxury dive watch. Not quite. The real heavyweight lives deeper — literally. The Rolex Sea-Dweller with reference 126600 is one of the most misunderstood pieces in Rolex's professional line. Many luxury watch collectors skip it because they assume it's “just a bigger Sub.” That's actually a five-figure mistake. So today, let's take a proper deep dive into the SD43 — why it exists, what makes it different, and whether it's a piece worth owning in your collection.OUR STORE: https://www.chrono24.com/dealer/warriortime/

If you're struggling to book luxury clients and wondering where they all went, this episode will help you zoom out and see the bigger picture. Katy and Sam break down what's really going on in the market right now—from client hesitation to increased competition—and why your calendar being only half full in January might actually be a good sign. They'll walk through how buyer behavior has shifted, what today's couples actually want, and what vendors need to say and show in order to stand out.You'll learn:Why luxury buying looks different (and less obvious) than it used toWhat causes trust to break down in your marketing and sales processHow to identify and fix mismatched messaging across your brandThe two most important questions to answer if you want to book better clients

Somewhere along the way, experiencing things stopped being the point — now it's just about being seen experiencing them.This episode is my running commentary on the People Parade: the main-character energy, the phones-out-for-everything crowd, and the absolute inability to exist in a moment without turning it into content.From disrespecting animals to ignoring rules to treating the world like a personal backdrop, I unpack why being around people feels more exhausting than ever — and why I'm increasingly happy opting out. There's yelling (earned), there's humor (unhinged), there's a near-emotional breakdown involving a baby kangaroo, and there's a full acceptance of my final form: flawed brand, low tolerance, zero interest in being palatable.If you've ever gone somewhere incredible just to watch everyone ruin it for themselves, welcome to the parade.socials:https://www.instagram.com/twndpodcasthttps://www.twitter.com/twndpodcast
