  • Something charming in its ugliness

    By far the least pretentious podcast about clothes (and really that’s a stretch given the breadth of topics covered, from history to art to pop culture and more). Colin

  • Love!

    I love this! Every time I listen I walk away with more knowledge about the history of menswear, cultural history, music and literature. I actually take notes, then do a deep dive into whatever piece or usually pieces of information intrigued me. Also, they are funny! Always looking forward to the next episode.
