Crazy Drip Asians with Blake Abbie

Throwing Fits
About this episode

This week's interview with Blake Abbie is golden. Blake—star of Bling Empire: New York and the editor-in-chief of A Magazine Curated By—was kind enough to take precious time out of closing the latest issue of his magazine to chat with us about how Vancouver is his upstate, his newly-minted gig, judging covers, how much more work he has to do than when he was just editor-at-large, linking and building and making friends on the Diesel jet, wrangling fashion designers to make media, why partying in Shanghai is superior, checking in with his next cover star and friend Peter Do, his first impressions of us when we were introduced by our mutual bestie Brenda Hashtag plus his favorite and least favorite things about the Throw Gang's princess of darkness, what the hell it's like being on a reality show, refusing to be a stereotype on television, Netflix's various ethnic verticals, the best rumors he's read about himself of Reddit, Hapa Mount Rushmore, a portrait of the hesitant sex symbol as a young man, keeping your ankles to yourself, why buying pants is so hard for men, the skincare and grooming routines of someone so handsome, a live aria from the former opera singer, never taking a vacation, platonic throuple ambitions with the homies and much more on this beautiful and blinged out episode of The Only Podcast That Matters™.
