Author: Throwing Fits July 19, 2023 Duration: 2:02:56

On this week's interview with Vogue columnist and author of the new book, Raven Smith's Men, Raven Smith, the boys are finally amplifying male voices. Raven was in town and beat the heat to come to Brooklyn to dish on his Adidas secret weapon, a galaxy brain theory on gold, being rich enough to look like you're rich without actually being rich, blowing book advances fast, how he met his husband, a NYC gay bar tourism review, the GOAT and WOAT men in his life, pretending to bust in your pants at the beach to get out of a hookup, not reading your ex's book, but your husband also not reading yours, why dancers are the biggest bummer, how the Brits invented banter, the let's swim back in mentality, dogging vs. seagulling, the man he was and the man he's become, the fool's errand of trying to predict the future of masculinity, Ken doll gays as walking erections, growing up with a bodybuilder dad, addressing the complaints of his straight girlfriends, his friend Lena Dunham, the paradox of contemporary dating, why everyone wants to fuck artists, McKibben Lofts PTSD, checking in on the Bode Boys, skinny jeans giving you health problems, how to handle a petition to get you fired, weighing in on the Jonah Hill drama, the gift and the curse of memes and what it takes for him to delete one, a permanent out of office hack, the perfect night out in jolly ol' London Town, his cameo in Fergie's London Bridge video and his acting on Industry aspirations, when smoking a spliff while being old enough to have sex with a woman, but not old enough to have sex with a man goes wrong, beefing with your neighbor over flow team jawnz and much more on this merry and masculine 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.
