The Delia Cai Interview with Throwing Fits

Author: Throwing Fits May 9, 2024 Duration: 1:44:45

Our interview with Delia Cai is for the real haters. Delia—senior vanities correspondent at Vanity Fair and author of the Deez Links newsletter—broke out the Condé Nast rubber room as our inaugural guest in the new TF stu to talk taking advantage of the weak Yen in Japan, boots that look like human skin, men's leather jackets, explaining the current purgatory of her gig, what the hell is going on with the Condé union negotiations, what we mean literally and metaphorically when we talk about rubber rooms, ridiculously pointless busy work, getting anyone to pick up the phone, how Gen Z is covered by and for Millennials, her first executive order as CEO, the dream of legacy media is still alive and she's gunning for that EIC spot, her viral Hate Read Substack pop-up blog, pitches so hateful she had to turn them down, why menswear guys get so butthurt when called out, what the old guard can learn from timeline crushing op-eds, paying it forward to her anonymous shooters, media guys are the absolutely worst, men who travel in packs vs. lone wolfs, a plethora of dating advice and otherwise from the beautiful brain of the fairer sex, being present and much more on Delia Cai's interview with 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.
