Ghost Cheeks with Percival's Christopher Gove

Ghost Cheeks with Percival's Christopher Gove

Author: Throwing Fits October 18, 2023 Duration: 1:38:13

Things are getting spooky on this week's interview with Percival founder and creative director Christopher Gove, babes. Chris was kind enough to step away from his extremely important NYC pop-up to try a White Claw for the first time and chat with the lads about the best orange tabs for phantom asses, how the city has embraced his merry band of blokes, publicly thanking us for putting Percival on American radars, going pundit mode on our footie skills, bashing off mic brand directors, all the times his business has nearly failed including but not limited to the drugs that broke the camel's back and getting van-dragged to the tune of £500k, a certain lead singer of a certain band getting a little more than he bargained for when he purchased a shirt, run-ins with the taxman, DTC can save your life, how much his good looks play into his success, the beauty of vintage Umbro kits, a Brit breaks down Beckham, pretending you're a tailor for England manager Gareth Southgate, all the A-list dons who move their needle, the big brained move of collaborating with celebrity stylists, TikTok love vs. overexposure, going on tour with the Arctic Monkeys and beefing with Josh Homme, bagging supermodels and much more on this cheeky and chummy 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.
