Blamo!

This week on Blamo! Jeremy talks with Isaiah Lester, writer for ABC’s Black-ish. Isaiah explains his journey from dropping out of college in Alabama to film school in Vancouver all the way to writing late-night sketches and being a writer for Black-ish. Isaiah gets into how he relates to Jennifer Garner in Alias, what he learned from Octo-mom, and his love for a good jean short. Jeremy and Isaiah discuss the awkwardness of wearing sports jerseys of players younger than themselves, always wanting to be journal dudes but never quite getting there, and they go deep on sneaker entitlement and the sense of apology for being able to afford things now that they couldn't growing up. *Sponsored by Standard & Strange – Get the facts on denim 👖 hereandWhatnot - Join us for our exclusive show on watches, clothes and more 

This week, Jeremy chats with Silas Walton, founder of A Collected Man. Silas explains how he went from restoring an old watch he got when he was 14 and selling it on eBay to launching an e-commerce platform for amazing watches, his experience in law, selling his own collection of watches for cash to get by, and how a good lifestyle photo can go a long way. Jeremy and Silas swap stories of breaking into the watch world, talk about the intersection of independent watchmaking and fine art and even makes Silas choose what watch he would save in a fire.**Sponsored by Standard & Strange – Get the facts on denim 👖 hereandSponsored by Topper Jewelers – The place to buy your next watchandSponsored by Proper Cloth – Get your next custom shirt here!

On the first episode of the Triple J show, Jeremy, Jian, and Jon fantasize about future ad-read possibilities, what they’ve been up to since that last time they chatted, clout chasing via Japan, and that one time Jian got cart jacked IRL. Jon grills Jian about the food at the Met and Goldhouse Co. Galas. They also talk about the latest Dior and Balenciaga collections, generational reference points, Jian expounds on his concept of “Hoodie Couture” and Jeremy applies postmodernist criticism to haute couture which prompts Jon to try to say something in French. The guys talk about how inspiration sources have changed over the years and if it’s harder now to develop a personal sense of style. Hit us up with questions, comments, thoughts, and any topics you’d like the J’s to discuss on the Blamo! Slack Channel.  **Follow the fellas on IGJian DeLeonJon MoyJeremy Kirkland**Listen to the entire episode on the Blamo! Patreon 

Adam Conover joins us this week to talk about, well, literally everything. Jeremy and Adam discuss how he lives his values within reason, from having an existence free of Amazon and Google to taking the bus rather than owning a car and taking Alto ride shares over those other bigger names. Adam also gives his classically eloquent opinions on fast fashion, the struggle of finding the right suits for his new Netflix show, The G-Word, college athletes not getting paid enough, traditional Ivy style, being a collector of video games, the uncoolness of being rich, and so much more.*Sponsored by Standard & Strange – Get the facts on denim 👖 hereandWhatnot - Join us for our exclusive show on watches, clothes and more  

This week Jeremy talks to Matt Lambert about being an OG from Sid Mashburn, balancing being a musician while simultaneously starting his career, and how the pandemic helped give birth to his new brand, Factor’s. Matt discusses disregarding trends, the "dramatic moments of attitude" in his suits, the attention to how a garment’s lifespan impacts his designs, and why his models are pouting in mirrors and slouching to show off the functional 'fits all in our Season 11 premiere.https://www.f-act-ors.com**Sponsored by Standard & Strange – Get the facts on denim 👖 hereandSponsored by Topper Jewelers – The place to buy your next watchandSponsored by Proper Cloth – Get your next custom shirt here!
