Hello All You Cool Cats and Kittens

Ep. 73

Hello and welcome to week 3 (or whatever it is) of self-isolation. Naturally we’re knee deep in all things Tiger King - the Netflix series keeping us all distracted during this dark time. Please enjoy our thoroughly non high-brow discussion about how batsh*t insane the whole thing is. Plus, a whole dose of new TV, podcast and reading recommendations; why House Party is embroiled in some insane hacking drama; and Lena Dunham’s adorable new serialised novel, published in Vogue during COVID. 

Most importantly, we have a very special treat for you this week in the form of one Maggie Hewitt - the designer behind New Zealand powerhouse label Maggie Marilyn. Since launching in 2016 Maggie Marilyn has been worn by literally everyone, including Meghan Markle, Michelle Obama, Kylie Jenner, Selena Gomez and every editor, influencer and It-girl worth their salt. Above all, we admire Maggie’s commitment to sustainability - something she has been totally uncompromising on and has championed since she launched, back when nobody was willing to listen. We talk to Maggie about ambition, navigating the business world as a young woman and how to battle eco-anxiety, and we hope you love listening to this chat as much as we loved having it. See you next week kittens <3
