Joshua Schaeffer is the General Manager at Virgin Hotels Chicago. Last week I saw some photos on LinkedIn of an event he hosted for his team and had to know more. Today, he shares an experience he had earlier in his career that shaped how he thinks about providing events for his team - and then how he hosted a “Teamsgiving” last week.

Think you know Billy Corgan? Think again. He and his partner, designer and founder of Maison Atia, Chloe Mendel, talk faux fur, animal activism and the Smashing Pumpkins reunion on Ep 22 of Awesome Vegans with Elysabeth Alfano. Unfathomably, between the two of them, they juggle living in NYC, Chicago and LA, a haute-couture fashion house, a rock band, two dogs, two cats and two babies! And yet, as you will hear, they are incredibly normal and laid back, with a very funny dynamic between the two of them. In fact, this interview is an EXCLUSIVE. It is their first interview together ever.  Visit Maison Atia's website to view collections and for information on a December 16 Faux Fur event with Santa and your pet at the Virgin Hotels Chicago benefitting PAWS Chicago.

Today’s show features Blake Schwarzenbach (Jawbreaker, Jets To Brazil) and chef Graham Elliot (Masterchef, Top Chef) in conversation live from Virgin Hotels Chicago. Their talk covers some of the big experiences of their respective art forms — the inherent pressures of reuniting with a legendary band, or of being asked to recreate classic dishes in a high pressure public environment; false “perfection” vs. authenticity in the recording studio and in the kitchen — as well as Jawbreaker’s formation, rise and reunion, and the consequences of speaking out politically while being a star on Top Chef. It also takes in wet sax solos, keytars, Auto-Tune, Trump supporters at Jawbreaker shows, menu B-sides, being Gordon Ramsay’s “backup dancer,” and vocal fry vs. frying.
