Our interview with Ian Isiah is everything. Ian—former creative director of Hood By Air, music director at Telfar, and musician—came through for a big one on piercing peer pressure, Demna standing on the shoulders of giants, finally making gay music, the fellas need to learn strategies, influence vs. inspiration vs. identity, vagina facial prosthetics, nothing fazing New Yorkers, homophobia in hip-hop, explaining the concept of doing your big one, songs getting shorter, genre hopping with his collaborators, looking back on the HBA days and its current hyper relevance, how cis-hetero bros can respectfully occupy queer fashion spaces, his current role at Telfar, flipping off the establishment, GHE20G0TH1K club nights, collective corporate insecurity, how did they do at this year's Met Gala, prison workouts, becoming shy as you age gracefully, growing up in the church and hair salons where emotional outrage meets art, enlightened straights, working at Urban Outfitters turned him into a white hipster and much more on Ian Isiah'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.
