    After some technical difficulties and a multitude of scheduling conflicts, Phil and I were finally able to bang out two sessions for this extra-long 'sode.  We had a great time and found ourselves meandering throughout, but the main topics were as follows:

    1) Brad Pitt is crushing custom looks (shouts to Haans!) on the press tour for Bullet Train including an instantly-infamous brown linen skirt followed up by a tailored rig anchored with Gucci Gazelles.
    2) Apparently, #Sandlercore was a dominant TikTok trend with GenZ girls last summer, but this summer, it's resurgence has just made us feel better about looking like a slob, like, most of the time.
    3) Everybody's talking about it, so of course, we had to add our two cents.  Brendon Babenzian's J.Crew is finally here.

    - Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker get married.  When you get married in your 40s, you're allowed to have a themed wedding.  What would our themes be?
    - Tom Sachs x NikeCraft "General Purpose Shoe" releases next week.  How do we feel about the marketing?  What about the fact that the shoe is being made to seem democratic but will inevitably resale for thousands?

Great pod

Phil’s laugh is truly unbeatable

Marty1528 ,

Really good show

Really great show because they don’t just discuss high fashion. They discuss fashion that pertains to the everyday life and how to wear clothes for guys and gals that just want to look appropriate in varying situations.

Great work guys!
