First newsletter I had ever subscribed to and I love the weekly interviews and random recs that Jonah and Erin throw out.
Also the only newsletter I’ve ever bought merch from.
If your into artist interviews ranging from music to art to fashion and like a writing style somewhere between the NYT and a YouTube comments section then you know what to do.

bro is quite the tastemaker! jonah with the occasional help of his wife, write dope little substack articles on (non cursed) gorpy/wavy mostly menswear designers. they’re always emphasizing the whackness of over consumption, buying quality clothes and home goods that ethically pay those who created them, and societal critiques of how we approach clothes. i have subscribed/read this substack since 2020 and it gives me the fix of being in the know about mad under the radar items but i don’t feel the urge to drain my bank account to acquire. love their art direction too

one of the best substacks IMO. as far as I know its ran by two people. most of the posts are about fashion and culture, but every now and then a banging editorial is dropped. super sweet recs for small time and single owner fashion brands plus some really great interviews. Clairo is actually the reason I found BBSP as well as PI! Hope you enjoy

Another newsletter rec today… ArtStuff popped on my radar last week and I’ve found it to be great content as I kick around through the archive. It’s a pretty basic format of interviews with semi low key artists, but the interviews are great and have led to me discovering a bunch of cool things / people. Check out the soho house curator one and the Leonard Baby one for a taste.

Top Recs from @bookboi
Surprised no one’s mentioned it yet, especially because I think Cash was tapped for a rec list, but this one floored me when it came out about a year ago.
Funny. Short. Unpredictable. And if you need more convincing, it has blurbs from the likes of Tao Lin, Chelsea Hodson and Garielle Lutz.
Enough said. Start Reading.

Shout out to Blackbird Spyplane for putting me on to this guy in their most recent newsletter.
Don’t know much about him other than that he recently performed on the Jimmy Kimmel show so he must be on the rise.
Listened to him on the way to and from work and let’s just say I WAS VIBING.

Brutal. Honest. Unflinching. Ugly.
You can’t look away, but there is love beneath it all.
You’ll either read this in a scorching mad dash or slow it down for more of a controlled burn, either way you will come away changed.
