Is Brad Pitt Even That Hot? With Raven Smith
Hello angels. This week we’re so excited to be speaking to Raven Smith. Raven is a Vogue columnist, freelance creative director, guest lecturer at Central Saint Martin’s, and the author of the best-selling book Raven’s Smith’s Trivial Pursuits. But most importantly, he’s our favourite person on Instagram. A couple of years ago his hilarious captions started to get a cult following, including us, and now he has over 100,000 followers who hang on his every post. Pretty much everyone we’ve had on this podcast, Pandora Sykes, Jessy Barden, Florence Given, Madeleine Madden, @EveryOutfitOnSATC, all follow him too, which is pretty cute if you ask us. We speak to Raven about using humour to deal with how fucked the world is, his unique perspective on classism in the UK, Brad Pitt’s face, how fucked netball is, diet - sorry, wellness - culture, the celebrities we’ll lower our dignity to get a selfie with, and whether or not it’s discrimination when women refuse to date short men (it is).
You can buy Raven’s first (best-selling!) book, Raven Smith’s Trivial Pursuits here. Follow him on Instagram here.
