Is menopause making your hair fall out? You're not imagining it, and it's not just aging. In this episode, I'm joined by world-renowned hair restoration expert Dr. Alan Bauman, who has treated over 35,000 patients, performed 13,000 hair transplant procedures, and pioneered technologies like FUE, PRP, and needle-free hair restoration. Dr. Bauman explains what's really behind menopause hair loss, from hormonal changes to nutrient deficiencies, stress, and genetics. He breaks down which treatments are actually worth your time (and money) and which are just marketing hype. We cover: Why hormonal shifts in menopause trigger hair loss Early red flags your hair loss is hormonally driven How stress, cortisol, and poor sleep accelerate shedding PRP and stem cells for regrowth Which peptides are best for hair The truth about Minoxidil, red light therapy, and "natural" oils What to do first when you notice thinning hair The future of hair restoration for women Dr. Alan Bauman is a board-certified hair restoration physician, founder of Bauman Medical, and one of only 200 doctors worldwide certified by the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery.

Taboo to Truth: Unapologetic Conversations About Sexuality in Midlife
In this episode, I react to a provocative cultural shift highlighted in Vogue's viral piece “Is Having a Boyfriend Embarrassing Now?”. Straight women are hiding their partners online. Faces are blurred. Fiancés are cropped out. Entire relationships are reduced to a hand on a steering wheel. The fear is that posting a boyfriend makes a woman look less independent and less culturally relevant. I compare this to myr own experience as a boomer who grew up with the belief that partnership was an achievement. I explore how this shift affects men, why younger women feel pressure to appear single, and what it says about the evolving politics of heterosexual relationships. The episode asks listeners to rethink why sharing a romantic partner feels risky now and whether avoiding visibility is about independence, superstition, image, or something deeper.Timestamps:00:00 Intro00:22 The purpose of breaking taboos00:45 Why women hesitate to like or share sex content01:15 Introducing the episode and today's question01:33 The Vogue article and the rise of “boyfriend embarrassment”02:05 How age and upbringing shape views on partnership02:40 The clash between independence and being partnered03:15 How shifting gender roles impact men03:45 Why posting a partner feels risky for some women04:20 The 70 year old who feels odd saying “my boyfriend”04:48 Why Karen sees partnership as joyful, not submissive05:15 The fear of judgment and the pressure to appear independent05:48 Why some women reject men after negative experiences06:20 Karen's final questions about posting your partner06:45 Closing message and sex positive reminderWant a deeper look?

This week's episode is a cozy mix of nostalgia and internet commentary. Dani and Jordan kick things off with some classic life catch up, then take a trip straight back to the beginning of their story by reading their first ever Facebook messages. They're funny, sweet, and surprisingly direct — peak early-social-media energy in the best way. Then they jump into the Vogue debate over whether having a boyfriend is suddenly “cringe.” Dani and Jordan break down where this idea even came from, why people online love turning relationships into discourse, and what the whole thing actually says about dating culture.

In today's episode, I'm talking with my friend Dawn Weisberg of Tularosa Flowers about what it actually takes to create and book large-scale luxury weddings — not just from a "pretty" standpoint, but from a strategic, energetic, and logistical one. Dawn and I both came to the wedding industry later in life with long creative careers behind us — mine in directing and acting, hers in costume design for film and television. We get into how those backgrounds shaped the way we approach weddings as world-building: cinematic, intentional, immersive, and deeply rooted in storytelling. We talk about: How Dawn went from starting florals at 45 to designing six-figure weddings in under a decade Why she treats every wedding like a film set: thinking in scenes, movement, and guest experience The behind-the-scenes systems and logistics that make large-scale productions possible How her viral "Malibu Barbie meets Marie Antoinette" pink wedding came to life — and what made it blow up online The creative process of pulling inspiration from runway shows, architecture, art, travel, and above all, the couple themselves Why color is having a moment in the luxury world and how to use it in a way that still feels timeless and elevated The mindset shifts required to feel safe holding and delivering on big budgets The role publications & Pinterest have played in her growth (and how she handles rejection like a pro) How styled shoots and editorials catapulted both of our careers into higher price points What florists actually need from photographers on a wedding day to grow their own businesses We also explore the emotional and energetic side of this work — what it's like to be genuinely obsessed with your craft, how to avoid burnout by building a business that actually feeds you, and why weddings are still the modern-day fairy tale for both couples and creatives. P.S. I'm hosting a Tuscany Real Wedding Workshop this spring — a real wedding with a real couple and 30 real guests, photographed and designed over multiple days. You'll walk away with: A full multi-day destination wedding story (engagement, welcome party, bridal editorial, wedding day, farewell event) A pre-trip mentorship to refine your brand, portfolio gaps, and shot list A post-trip call where we turn your gallery into a 90-day luxury marketing plan If your gut is saying "this is my next level," send me a DM and I'll send you the full proposal. We have very limited spots. Meet Dawn Dawn Weisberg is the owner and flower mastermind behind Tularosa Flowers, a luxury wedding design company in Southern California in the San Diego area. Voted Best Florist San Diego by California Wedding Magazine for both 2025 and 2024, she is dedicated to providing the highest level of design and service to her clients. Dawn's breadth of expertise enables her to offer a visionary edge to her work with a unique perspective in the wedding industry. With a Master's Degree in Theatrical Design from New York University's acclaimed Tisch School of the Arts, her classical training was augmented studying fine art in Italy, where she apprenticed in a Costume and Mask Studio in Venice. After a successful career for 20 years in film and television as a costume designer, Tularosa Flowers's owner chose to pursue her passion for flowers. Dawn combines her cinematic design background with her love of nature to create one-of-a-kind immersive experiences for her clients. The Tularosa style is an effortless maximalism combining Old World European style with California vibrance. Tularosa Flowers has been featured in all of the top wedding publications, including Vogue, Martha Stewart Weddings, Style Me Pretty, Once Wed, The Knot, Brides, Ruffled, Green Wedding Shoes, California Wedding Day, Inspired by This, 100 Layer Cake, June Bug, Wedding Chicks, Hey Wedding Lady, Smashing the Glass, and the Gay Wedding Guide.

Guest Jonathan Gluck is a writer and editor whose work has appeared in The New York Times and The Washington Post. He was deputy editor of New York magazine for ten years, after which he worked as managing editor of Vogue. He currently works at Fast Company. His work has been recognized with multiple National Magazine Awards. He is the author of An Exercise in Uncertainty, a memoir of how his journey with incurable cancer has reshaped his identity, marriage, and daily life. Summary In this deeply candid conversation, journalist and author Jon Gluck recounts his 22-year journey living with multiple myeloma, an incurable but treatable bone-marrow cancer. He describes the shock of his diagnosis at age 38 and the long, winding road of tests, remissions, relapses, and emerging treatments that have kept him alive. The discussion explores how Gluck navigates profound uncertainty, the illusion of control, and the emotional toll that chronic illness places not only on the patient but also on family and relationships. He and his wife confronted the strain of living in medical limbo, ultimately turning to therapy to rebuild connection during what he calls becoming "cancer zombies." The conversation also highlights the restorative role of fly fishing, which Gluck describes as one of the few activities capable of placing him entirely in the present. This genuine flow state quiets fear and anxiety. He shares broader lessons about empathy, how to speak to someone with a serious diagnosis, and the importance of intentionally pursuing joy, connection, and meaning while living alongside uncertainty. The Essential Point The heart of the discussion is Jon's insight into living meaningfully in the face of uncertainty. His story shows that while we cannot control the inevitabilities of illness or life's unpredictability, we can control how we show up—seeking information, accepting our limits, nurturing relationships, and embracing activities that restore us. His emphasis on intentionally choosing joy, connection, and presence—even in the shadow of chronic illness—offers a universal lesson for anyone facing their own uncertainties.

A lot of business success stories contain familiar scenarios. They include a previous spectacular failure; everybody telling an entrepreneur they’re crazy; and an entrepreneur explaining that what might look like an overnight success was anything but. And then there are entrepreneurs like Peter's lunch guests on this edition of Out to Lunch who both had ideas for very different businesses, went ahead and opened their doors without any drama, and were instantly successful. Troy Bergeron spent 30 years in the music transportation business, driving tour buses for rock musicians like the late Ozzy Osbourne and transporting equipment across the country. When he quit all that and came back home to New Orleans, he was wondering what he was going to do with himself when he overheard a woman complaining there was no doggie transportation option here. And that’s when Doggie Bus was born. Doggie Bus is Uber for dogs.You book your dog’s ride on the Doggie Bus app; Troy shows up in his specially converted passenger van; on the app you track where your dog is, when he gets where he’s going, and when he’s on the way home. Troy launched Doggie Bus in New Orleans in January 2024 and he’s already franchising the business to other cities. Samantha Weiss had never lived in New Orleans. In New York City she’d put her MBA and job in financial services on hold and started pursuing a career in food. Then the Covid pandemic derailed those plans. Samantha and her friend Kelly Jacques came up with an idea - open a bakery, in New Orleans. 30-seconds of online research will tell you, New Orleans already has 40 bakeries - twice as many per capita as your average city in the US. Nonetheless, Samantha and Kelly moved to New Orleans and in 2022 took over a space that used to be Santa Fe restaurant in the Marigny, and they opened Ayu Bakehouse. If you live in New Orleans, you may know the rest of the story. Ayu Bakehouse was an instant success. Since opening they’ve been featured in numerous national publications - including Vogue, The New York Post, USA Today, and Bon Appetit - which named Ayu one of the most exciting bakeries in the country - and you’ve probably either tried or heard about their King Cake which has been voted Best in New Orleans in the Times Picayune readers’ poll. You’d have to be living under a rock these days not to be impacted by a seemingly endless onslaught of stressful developments - from international conflicts to national politics to local scandals, and even the daily war between your car and potholes. But, no matter what else is going on around us, there are at least two things that are universally bright spots in all of our lives. Puppies. And pastries. Besides running successful businesses, Troy and Samantha are making the world a brighter and better place for humans, dogs, and Kevin the cat. Out to Lunch was recorded live over lunch at Columns in Uptown New Orleans.

Meghan Markle has once again landed at the top of a “most hated celebrity” ranking, with Harry not far behind — but that hasn't slowed her push to turn As Ever into a Kardashian-style brand machine. We'll look at why voters say they're fed up, what her ex-stepmother and half-sister are still fighting about, the latest gossip tying her to Taylor Swift's wedding guest list, and Ingrid Seward's blunt verdict that Meghan is “just another person flogging makeup” without the Duchess title. Plus, Chrissy Teigen calls her “kind and strong,” and a Vogue writer turns Meghan's candles and sparkling wine into the emotional support props for a very on-brand, As Ever–fuelled breakup.Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.
Former U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry joins Christiane to discuss the leaked phone call which appears to show Trump's Special Envoy Steve Witkoff coaching a Putin aide.

Then, former Ukrainian Foreign Minister, Dmytro Kuleba gives Kyiv's perspective on the Witkoff call controversy. CNN's Hanako Montgomery reports on the mass grave site unearthed in the north of Sri Lanka, reopening painful wounds of a decades long civil war. Plus, renowned photographer Annie Leibovitz on her new book "Women", liberating Michelle Obama, the final photo of John Lennon and her Vogue cover of Timothée Chalamet.

Der går en mærkelig, genkendelig kuldegysning gennem internettet lige nu. En blanding af humor, selvforagt, kulturkritik og noget, der ligner et kollektivt suk. Den britiske journalist og forfatter Chanté Joseph skrev i Vogue et essay med titlen ’Is Having a Boyfriend Embarrassing?’, og internettet eksploderede. Ikke i protest, men i genkendelse. For artiklen rammer et ømt punkt i den måde unge, især kvinder, taler om kærlighed på i dag. En ny slags offentlig skam, der knytter sig til romantisk heteroseksualitet. Hvor det tidligere var pinligt ikke at have en kæreste, er det nu ved at blive pinligt at have én. Men er det faktisk dét, der sker? Eller er det i virkeligheden mere pinligt at længes? At indrømme at man gerne vil holdes om? I dette afsnit af Poptillægget går vi ind i skæringspunktet mellem statistik, algoritmer, stemningskultur, sex og kærlighed anno 2025. PANEL Marie Hougaard, forfatter: Anbefaling: Gå i kirke, nyd rummet og syng måske en sang. Naima Yasin, sekretariatsleder i Saga og vært på podcasten ‘A Seat At The Table’.

In this episode of PhotoWork with Sasha Wolf, artist, photographer, and filmmaker Tyler Mitchell joins Sasha to discuss his Aperture book, Wish This Was Real. Tyler speaks candidly about learning by doing, the value of taking risks, and the creative rewards that follow. He and Sasha also explore the central role of collaboration in his practice, particularly how that ethos shapes his approach to building tableaux. https://www.tylermitchell.co https://www.tylermitchell.co/books/wish-this-was-real-book Tyler Mitchell (b. 1995, Atlanta, GA) is an artist, photographer, and filmmaker based in Brooklyn. He received a BFA in Film and Television from New York University's Tisch School of the Arts in 2017. Mitchell's work reimagines narratives of Black beauty and desire, embracing history while envisioning fictionalized moments of an aspirational future. His photographs and films present Black life through themes of play, empowerment, and self-determination. Mitchell's work is held in numerous public and private collections, including the Museum of Modern Art, New York; High Museum of Art, Atlanta; Brooklyn Museum; Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA); Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; Smithsonian's National Portrait Gallery, Washington, D.C.; and FOAM Fotografiemuseum, Amsterdam, among others. He has presented exhibitions internationally, including The New Black Vanguard (Aperture Gallery, New York); I Can Make You Feel Good (FOAM, Amsterdam; ICP, New York); Chrysalis (Gagosian, London); Domestic Imaginaries (SCAD Museum of Art, Savannah); and Idyllic Space (High Museum of Art, Atlanta). His European touring exhibition, Wish This Was Real (C/O Berlin, 2024), brought together a decade of work exploring Black beauty, leisure, and imagination, traveling to Helsinki, Lausanne, and concluding at the Maison Européenne de la Photographie, Paris (2025–26). Mitchell's photography has appeared in Aperture, Dazed, i-D, Vogue, Vanity Fair, WSJ, and Zeit Magazin, alongside collaborations with Gucci, Loewe, Ferragamo, and JW Anderson.

Welcome back to When Words Fail Music Streaks, the podcast where we battle depression with the transformative power of music. I'm your host, James Cox—your “handicapped” guide through the stories that keep us moving when life gets heavy.In today's episode we sit down with award‑winning writer, filmmaker, playwright, and cultural documentarian Alan Govnar (who kindly corrects us on the title of his newest novel, Come Round Right). Alan's career spans more than three decades of preserving the music of everyday people: from his landmark 1984 Living Texas Blues project for the Dallas Museum of Art, to an intimate portrait of blues scene in Deepum, to his groundbreaking documentaries that put disability‑rights narratives front‑and‑center.We'll explore hotly debated questions like: Where did the blues really begin? — Texas, the Mississippi Delta, or Memphis? — and hear Alan's compelling argument that blues emerged from the African diaspora and found early written references in Texas.Beyond blues, Alan reveals how his personal hearing of Dizzy Gillespie, Charlie Parker, and New Orleans R&B as a four‑year‑old sparked a lifelong quest to document music that speaks to the soul, no matter how “un‑virtuosic” it may seem. His stories range from a hunchback dwarf tattoo artist in a wheelchair to the polio‑stricken African drummer Siddiqui Conde, whose student Aaron Phillips (now a trans Vogue cover model) turned a Tumblr following into the inspiring memoir This Kid Can Fly.We'll also get a sneak peek at Alan's newest feature, Quiet Voices in a Noisy World: The Struggle for Change in Jasper, Texas, premiering at Cinema Village in New York this November—a powerful look at a community healing from the trauma of a 1998 lynching.If you're a fan of music history, social justice, or simply crave stories that turn hardship into hope stay tuned. Grab your headphones, let the rhythm lift you, and get ready for a conversation that proves music can indeed speak louder than depression.

Ireland has long been a veritable backwater when it comes fashion - never touching the likes of London or Paris in terms of local style, creativity or trends. But with Irishman Jonathan Anderson now at the helm of Dior, and homegrown fashionistas like Verona Farrell gaining more than 700,000 followers online, is Ireland's time to shine nigh? Is Irish fashion now in vogue?

Hello EICritical Thinkers & happy humping day (or whatever the saying is).This week we're discussing the apparent mass-vanishing act of male authors, after a piece for The Guardian suggested that David Szalay's Booker win has "put masculinity back at the centre of literary fiction." Oh! Ok!In a rebuttal for Vogue, author and friend of the podcast Eliza Clarke argues that it's time to put this debate to bed. She writes: “Male writers still continue to dominate literary awards. They make up a large portion of our bestsellers, all the while continuing to be viewed as more worthy and deserving of critical plaudits. Bernadine Evaristo remains the only Black woman to have won a Booker Prize, ever, and she had to share that win with Margaret Atwood.”With your help and takes we ask: is there any truth to it? And if so: what's driving women's dominion in literary fiction?Thanks for all of your thoughts as ever! Follow us on IG @everythingiscontentpod.

Recho Omondi, host of The Cutting Room Floor, handles candor with the ease of someone who has little interest in performance and every interest in clarity. Over seven years, her once-modest podcast has steadily entered the cultural foreground, helped along by her habit of thinking — and learning — in public. She moves fluidly between roles: moderating conversations, appearing on other platforms, or steering her own interviews with a mix of composure and quiet provocation. There is an unmistakable steadiness to her presence, never loud, yet impossible to misread. Raised by a single Kenyan father, the youngest of three, and shaped equally by the American Midwest and a constellation of international cities, her education was as experiential as it was academic. Unbothered by imposter syndrome, assured in unfamiliar rooms, and pragmatic about a future she believes has no fixed ceiling, Recho isn't one to ask for anyone's permission. The goal with her work is to encourage people to think for themselves — to trust instinct, interrogate what is handed to them, and question the comfortable consensus wherever it appears. “There's never been a room I didn't feel worthy of. Every room I've ever been in, I've thought, ‘Oh, finally.'” - Recho Omondi Episode Highlights: A childhood of dual worlds: Recho grew up in small Midwest towns while spending every summer traveling through Europe and Kenya, giving her a uniquely global perspective from a young age. Raised by a single Kenyan father with big expectations: Her dad — an afropolitan ER doctor — emphasized reading, travel, ballet, theater, and intellectual curiosity, shaping her worldview and ambition. Independence born from the absence of a mother: Without a maternal figure at home, she learned self-sufficiency, adaptability, and emotional self-navigation — traits that now show up in her confidence and presence. The pre-med years and the turning point into fashion: Initially on a pre-med path, she realized fashion was her true calling after immersing herself in magazines and secretly visiting SCAD during spring break. Her fashion label as a crash course in business: Running her own brand for seven years taught her everything — production, trademarks, operations — a real-world business school built through trial and error. The Cutting Room Floor's origin story: The podcast was born from frustration with how designers were misunderstood and siloed. She created the space she wished existed — honest conversations with the people themselves. Her stance on confidence and imposter syndrome: She has never experienced imposter syndrome; every room she's entered has felt right. Her self-assurance stems from upbringing, birth order, and early exposure to diverse worlds. The recurring themes she sees across all conversations: Capitalism's exhaustion, the tension between humanity and technology, and the truth that fashion is really about culture — not clothes. Her critique of fashion media and Vogue today: Recho believes American Vogue has lost its edge and that Anna Wintour should have passed the baton around 2010 — while global editions and independent magazines remain strong. What's contemporary now: Kindness — not niceness. In a world overwhelmed by speed, noise, and digital disconnection, genuine empathy and presence feel modern, radical, and necessary.

U epizodi koja nosi bezobrazni redni broj 69, u goste nam je došao Mladen Urdarević Mlađa (polovina dua "Daško i Mlađa", istoričar u pokušaju i čovek koji se razume u garažni rok). Mlađa nam je otkrio zašto je sa Nikolom Škorićem pokrenuo "Točak istorije" i da li je moguće pričati o Vikinzima bez pominjanja rogova. Zatim smo se kolektivno bacili u depresiju prisećajući se serije Sivi dom, koja je idealna za gledanje ako imate koronu i želite da vam bude još gore. Pričali smo o novom Frankenštajnu koji izgleda kao da je ispao iz Vogue kataloga, domaćem filmu Hajduk u Beogradu koji nas je vratio u vreme kad su frizure bile kriminalne, a školstvo strogo, i o tome da li će nam AI oteti poslove ili samo pisati bolje pesme od domaćih repera. Za kraj, prisećamo se kako smo u Rovinju ispali šovinisti jer nismo imali spreman odgovor na pitanje "Gde su vam žene?".
In this episode, I unpack the question - could much of the frustration and difficulty in dating and mating be attributed to (at least in part) to hyper-elite women practicing what is known as ‘Reproductive Suppression'?Vogue published an article titled ‘Is Having a Boyfriend Lame?' Which prompted Rob Henderson to put forth his hypothesis about Reproductive Suppression in this brilliant piece titled ‘Girl Boss Gatekeeping' - https://www.robkhenderson.com/p/girlb... I draw on research from Rob Henderson and Dr. Dani Sulikowski as I break down female intragroup conflict and why all the body positivity, you don't need a man, and red flag culture that seems like it's in solidarity with women might actually be a covert strategy to keep women from finding mates.Listen in to learn about how high-status females (including chimps) keep low-status females away from mates, how modern tech amplifies ‘aspirational' lifestyles, why rom-coms feel like castration for men, how dark-triad traits correlate with anti-natalism, and much more.This one is an evolutionary psychology nerding out episode - enjoy!TIMESTAMPS:00:53 —Intro 01:03 —One on one coaching spots03:15 — The Question of Elite Women as "Mean Girls"05:00 — The Proximate and Ultimate Reasons for Elite Women's Behavior06:16 — Intergroup Conflict and Covert Passive Aggression in Women 07:36 — Unconscious Competitive Strategy to Keep Women from Mates 10:12 — Girl Boss, Body Positivity, & Female Entitlement 13:16 — Technology, Consumerism, and the Tornado of Reproductive Suppression14:37 — Heartbreak of Women Who Prioritised Career Over Family 17:00 — Reproductive Sabotage: Disrupting Women's Mating Preferences 18:01 — Demonising Traditional Masculine Traits & Rom-Com Castration20:50 — Proximate vs. Ultimate Summary & Lying to Women21:58 — Elite Women's Access to Resources and Protection23:55 — Male Envy and Psychopathic Insanity 24:50 — Dark Triad Traits and Lack of Introspection25:52 — The Frustration of double standards27:16 — Historical Examples: Elizabeth Cady Stanton & Victoria Woodhull 28:54 — The Narrative of Oppression vs. Reality for Elite Women 29:57 — The Twisting of Pain into Man Envy (Betty Friedan) 31:17 — Conclusion & Call to Action for Harmony32:24 — Outro___________________________If you found some value today then help me spread the word!

A Vogue article went viral claiming women are hiding their relationships on social media because being partnered is "culturally loserish." But here's what nobody's talking about: when we make caring look uncool, we're not protecting ourselves - we're feeding the exact dating culture we claim to hate. In this episode we dive into:• Why pretending to be unbothered is actually making dating harder for everyone• The psychological defense mechanism behind relationship-hiding and what it reveals about competition• How to stop performing independence and start building the connections you actually want• The cost of swinging so far from "boyfriend obsessed" that we've made vulnerability embarrassingThe Cultural Shift Nobody Asked For• Women are blurring faces out of wedding photos and cropping fiancés from professionally edited videos• The pendulum swung from "boyfriend land" (where women's identity centered on partners) to making partnership feel "Republican"• Podcast hosts with partners claiming "having a boyfriend is lame" while simultaneously being in relationships• We've made being unbothered a personality trait that's bleeding into friendships, business, and datingThe Mirror Effect You're Missing• When you tell men relationships aren't cool, they hear "keep your options open and don't commit"• The same women participating in this narrative are often the ones complaining dating is hard• Guys internalize these messages and wonder why we want them to lead when we're saying we don't want traditional partnership• If you're triggered by someone sharing their relationship on social media, that says more about you than themThe Real Psychology Behind Relationship-Hiding• This pattern is a protection mechanism: we convince ourselves we don't want what we're wired for to avoid losing face• Women saying "having a boyfriend isn't cool" reduces competition for quality partners without them realizing they're doing it• If you convince everyone that connection is embarrassing, you never have to feel embarrassed about wanting it• Defense doesn't build anything we actually want in life - it just keeps us stuckThis conversation reminds us that independence and honesty aren't polar opposites. Whether you're building a business empire or building a life with someone, pretending not to care doesn't make you powerful - it makes you unavailable to what you actually want. This episode offers permission to stop performing and start being real about what matters.Looking for more on going against the grain?

In this episode of That Sober Guy Podcast, Shane sits down with fashion entrepreneur, social commerce innovator, and newly minted author Christos Garkinos, a man whose journey from Detroit to luxury fashion, Bravo TV, and running a $100M live-streaming network is impressive enough… but who's even more proud of one thing: staying sober. Christos opens up about growing up with Greek immigrant parents, working with major brands like Disney and Virgin Megastores, pioneering the luxury resale world, and ultimately launching Covet by Christos, a massive community-driven luxury platform featured in places like Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, and The New York Times. But his latest creation might be his most personal yet: his first book, Covet the Comeback. Together, Shane and Christos unpack why consistency matters, not just in sobriety, but in business, identity, spiritual growth, and making a comeback when life humbles you. They talk about what it means to just show up, surrender control, and let God work in places hustle alone won't fix. Key Takeaways • Comebacks require consistency, not perfection. Just show up, tell the truth, and let the work compound. • Sobriety creates space for identity, not the other way around. When alcohol stops leading, purpose can start. • God moves when you move. Taking action opens doors that prayer alone can't.

Though Bill Nighy's new podcast, ill-advised, is all about dishing thoughtful advice on the turmoils of others, that doesn't mean he wants to be mistaken for someone who has it all figured out.This is one of the first things he told Chioma after arriving at the London podcast studio in a suit, a Smedley sweater he designed himself, and Church's loafers. In honor of his podcast and the skillful advice he gave on British Vogue's Agony Uncle video, we asked Bill to answer listener questions and break down the secret behind his signature style, which led to the shocking revelation that he has never worn trainers in his life (well — except on one specific occasion). Despite insisting he's no advice expert, Bill still offers charming, genuinely helpful tips: how to get along with your in-laws over the holidays, a sweet way to propose to your partner, and a recommendation for a family-friendly film that adults and kids will love (hint: he stars in it!).Earlier in the show, Chloe shares details about next year's Met Gala spring 2026 exhibition theme titled “Costume Art”, which was just announced Monday morning. Chioma recaps the GQ London Men of the Year event, where she wore a chic brown Aaron Esh suit and had a fun text conversation with Cynthia Erivo about her excitement for Wicked: For Good (which she plans to see this weekend!). Plus, a fun a recap of the 16 Arlington show from earlier this week where Lily Allen made her runway debut!The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.
