Yeah, baby! Smashing, baby! This week, the boys are back on road, continuing their UK tour in Newcastle where they are joined by the legendary designer Nigel Cabourn. Big Nige was kind enough to play host in his amazing office/archive/library to banter about the ideal pant width, white whale grails, his thoughts on the state of vintage, the most he's ever spent on a garment, his popularity in Japan, randomly meeting Lorenzo Osti on the train, Italian sportswear's place in UK culture, 50 years worth of dizzying highs and terrifying lows in the fashion biz, his favorite collaborators, more Northern slang, living and partying during the Swinging Sixties, how to pull a proper bird and much more on this groovy and far-out episode of The Only Podcast That Matters™.

In a world saturated with polished takes and predictable opinions, Throwing Fits offers a refreshingly unfiltered conversation. This podcast operates from the premise that two self-proclaimed grown dirtbags can provide some of the most genuine commentary on contemporary culture. The hosts navigate the ever-shifting landscape of style, art, and what it means to be a person with interests in today's world, all without taking themselves too seriously. Listeners are invited into a space where high and low culture collide, where a deep dive into a fashion trend can sit comfortably beside a rant about daily absurdities. The tone is less instructional and more observational, driven by a shared curiosity and a willingness to question the status quo. You'll hear the hosts grapple with the zeitgeist, often finding humor and insight in the most unexpected places. Their dynamic is the core of the show-a blend of camaraderie, playful ribbing, and moments of surprising sincerity that makes each episode feel like catching up with your most opinionated, yet oddly relatable, friends. It’s a dialogue about the things that shape our tastes and identities, delivered with a distinct voice that refuses to be neatly categorized. For those tired of formulaic discussions, this podcast provides a much-needed dose of personality and authentic, meandering conversation that somehow always circles back to what’s interesting, weird, or worth talking about right now.
