Our interview with Lori Hirshleifer is family business. Lori—owner and womenswear buyer of Hirshleifers—was kind enough to grant us an audience at her family's namesake store on Long Island for a regal chat on her iconic jewelry game, a bond with the Starks that's stronger than Chrome, if she had second thoughts about getting fitted for the pod, the definitive take on men's bling, her actual day-to-day job and what kind of saleswoman she is, what sets Hirshleifers apart from the pack and above the fray as the last great department store, inheriting and adapting the family business with her sisters, the trust of working with family and necessary time apart, how many Birkins she owns, the one grail she's still tracking down, her most insane Chrome Hearts accessories, navigating social media and unwittingly becoming a style icon, shopping as a skill, VIP clientele and going fit for fit with any rapper in the world, cherished memories of her relationship with Virgil Abloh, how she gets dressed, her personal style icons, collecting art, avoiding trends completely, her husband and son running the men's business and much more on Lori Hirshleifer'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.
