I think a brand being honest is refreshing. I do watch her interviews regularly and he’s more open than other people. Also his prison story is just factually interesting. Lots of people didn’t know. She IS very smart. Also her audience is black, at least in TikTok and in the comments. Do you normally align with black TikTok?

He’s an old school NY guy. I can see why people would see it as gruff. It’s def a NY thing and she is used to that part of the culture it which is why she isn’t affected and carried on the interview beautifully.

I watched the whole interview I learned so much about him, the business and his perspective on retail and creating a brand. Good interview

He’s authentic, which is a rarity in an interview with a founder. I’m not seeing what you’re seeing in terms of condescension-to me, it seems like he respects her greatly.

He is indeed very funny and charming but I did feel uncomfortable watching some of the clips.

Don’t see it. Seems normal to me. Don’t see the condescension. Au contraire, they have a cute banter running. He likes her, actually.

I think they both have a short hand/comfortable rapport. On its face, her asking “what designer did you rip off for these five shoes?” It’s not respectful. But he plays along. They’re ribbing each other

Personally, I don’t really get it here. But here’s my summary. 1. It’s her, she’s a phenomenal interviewer. 2. People crave authenticity from brands and their leadership and that’s what this gave: unscripted (felt like it), raw and real conversation. That’s what people want and they got it. They don’t really care too much about the answers tbh.
