Lauren’s guest is GQ global editorial director Adam Baidawi, fresh off his first Tom Cruise magazine interview in 20 years. They talk through that shirtless cover, why he steered clear of the Scientology questions, his path from Melbourne freelancer to British GQ to succeeding Will Welch, and his plan to widen GQ’s aperture without losing its edge. Plus, why he thinks these legacy fashion brands should actually be making real money.
In this supersized episode, Lauren is joined first by Chris Black and Jason Stewart to discuss the Goneies, their live awards show happening at Racket NYC, as well as the whole Steven Kolb–PETA saga. Then, Sports Gossip queen Madeline Hill hops on to discuss the U.S. Open looks on and off the court, NYFW, Anthony Vaccarello leaving Saint Laurent, Joe Burrow’s custom Alo trousers, Gisele on iD, and the Tom Brady of it all.
Lauren’s guest is Irish-born, New York-based designer Maria McManus. They chat about her scrappy path through EDUN, Club Monaco, and three years working alongside Tory Burch before launching her own label right as the pandemic hit.

Lauren’s guest is journalist Eugene Rabkin, author of Torn: Fashion and Post-Modernism, which argues that the consolidation of the luxury industry has destroyed creativity in fashion. They debate whether Virgil Abloh was a genius or a villain, the proliferation of “nice” clothes, whether there are solutions the fashion system’s problems, and plenty more.
