  • An unequivocal step down

    Baby, what is this guest list?! I’ve seen other commentators say that this feels more curated to Ira than Keep It did, but as someone who literally consumes dozens of podcasts focused on pop culture (and who, frankly, thought I would miss Ira, but am now in love with Nina Parker), this is sprawling and meandering, and not at all focused on anything identify tied to a theme — except for Ira uniformly being a bad interview and more interested in talking about himself and his own anecdotes than the... more

    So glad Ira is back! First ep and first ten minutes confirmed why I love his takes. I’d never thought of books like astrology and it totally resonated with the way I purchase and seem to pick up when the time is exactly right.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Incel-ification of the Internet with Josh Lora
Q: What approaches can help someone wipe the slate clean from what they've heard about a work and trust their own taste?
He suggests consuming a broader range of sources (including audiobooks and criticism from those who disagree with you), and emphasizing the process of forming your own view rather than parroting popular takes.
The Incel-ification of the Internet with Josh Lora
Q: Hi Ira. How can I regain my confidence in my own sense of humor and taste, when I consume so much pop culture commentary and not a ton of source material?
Josh explains that reducing overload means diversifying input, reading or listening to criticism from different perspectives, and letting fresh material shape your own opinions rather than chasing after constantly recycled takes.
Is Fan Culture Breaking Bravo? with Gibson Johns
Q: How has reporting on Bravo changed the relationship between criticism and access?
Gibson argues that reporting has shifted from distant journalism to an embedded, relationship-focused approach where reporters cultivate access while still evaluating content, though he emphasizes the need to keep criticism grounded in observed show reality rather than personal attacks.
We Miss Magazines with Chrissy Rutherford & John Villa
Q: What advice would Chrissy and John give to a micro-influencer trying to break into fashion media?
Be relentlessly present and networked, go to events, document your experiences with a unique point of view, and tagging brands consistently can help you be discovered; quality and story matter more than follower counts alone.
