Who interviews the interviewers? This week, the boys are joined by editor-in-chief of Interview and celebrity stylist Mel Ottenberg. Mel was late, but eventually showed up to gossip about losing his favorite son, which thankfully is just a pair of jeans, why vintage Levi's just hit different, how your uniform evolves over time, the art of seduction, fancy vs. basic barbers, nipple rings getting ripped out during sex, meaningful feedback from refugees and celebrities, literally and figuratively elevating Kim Kardashian's butt, cursed Ye vibes, his many famous friends, making a fun magazine, believing in forgiveness, the humble genius of Rihanna, party fouls in front of Beyonce, BiscuitTok, falling in love with Throwing Fits via memes, a whole lotta Dat Ass, blowing bags on Italian furniture and much more on this fun and fabulous 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.
