Our interview with Jay Massacret is incredibly stylish. Jay—stylist and industry legend—was finally pinned down for a rare conversation on his love of Muji and Orlsow jeans, gay dating apps, art vs. commerce and styling journeys vs. destinations, how commercial styling differs from celebrity styling, introducing Lee McQueen to Lady Gaga and his storied relationship both working and personal with the iconic designer, how social media has changed fashion, Kim Kardashian is wonderful, international parameters prevent clown shows, you made it moments being false flags, code switching on set, remembering when there were no straights in fashion, prefering to never meet your heroes, Karl Lagerfield getting saucy, being bullish on Matthieu Blazy's Chanel and Proenza Schouler's Loewe, partying with Kate Moss in her prime, monster fashion boots, good clothes are only 33.3% of the gig, annoying assistant behavior, the high gloss uber fantasy era, the stuff you hate is always the most interesting, missing the magazine group project mentality, pretending to be bi, San Francisco was actually the other culture in the '90s, confessions of an ex-sneakerhead, styling red flags and much more on Jay Massacret'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.
