Zen Master with Who Decides War's Ev Bravado

Zen Master with Who Decides War's Ev Bravado

Author: Throwing Fits June 28, 2023 Duration: 1:31:30

Murder to excellence. This week, the boys are joined by the co-creative director and co-founder of Who Decides War, Ev Bravado. Ev showed up nearly two hours early to chop it up on when to drink red or white wine, copping your first iced out chain from Alex Moss, not holding grudges, Virgil Abloh teaching him how to be zen, taking over a major fashion house vs. building your own legacy, where he sees his brand in 5 years, how he and his wife find a work life balance, hitting the spa for some me time, expectations for Pharrell's Louis Vuitton, Fashion's relationship with young American POC designers, how the space has changed in a post-BLM world if at all, declining the FaceTime that was trying to tell him he was selected as one of the ten finalists for the 2023 CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund and his chances of winning, whether or not he feels overlooked and underrated, making movies in Paris with Pop Smoke, the Ice Spice effect, when a rapper gives their flow to a weed carrier, his personal relationship to faith and how it influences design, falling in love with the sampling process, following in his tailor father's footsteps, how much does a fashion show really cost, what he thinks of fellow denim contemporaries Amiri, Chrome Hearts and Gallery Dept, finally settling TF's jort debate, high school fashion cliques and much more on this insidery and insightful 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.
