    Franco Loro Piana On What Matters + Our Big Spring Update

    Jack Ezon and Annie Fitzsimmons recap a whirlwind stretch: being with the world's top event planners in Monaco, an incredible 40th anniversary celebration for Noteworthy at the Natural History Museum, how to plan the ultimate 16th birthday in Paris and more - shopping in Charleston, a cool project in Morocco, and meeting gorillas in Uganda along the way. They also talk through the real whiplash affecting travel this season, including airfare volatility, oil prices, and broader global uncertainty.  Our number 1 travel tip right now? BUY NOW. Then, live from Milan, they sit down with Franco Loro Piana to talk about Sease, the brand he has built after leaving his family business, and about heritage, performance, the best fabrics, and why the future of luxury lies partly lies in creating a community people want to belong to.

    Milan, Giulia Molteni, and the Hottest Week in Design

    In the first ten minutes, Jack and Annie talk art, permanence, and the psychology of design decisions. Annie is still trying to buy a rug (four years and counting), Jack argues that not everything has to be forever. They also zoom out to where to find trusted travel intel when editorial lines feel increasingly blurred...and a quick mention of Embark's growth to $350 million. Plus, a recurring argument about one particularly unfortunate hotel photo in Wengen. Then, they both sit down in Milan with Giulia Molteni, CMO of Molteni&C, inside the brand’s newly opened palazzo showroom. As a third-generation leader of one of Italy’s most historic design houses (and the granddaughter of one of the founders of Salone del Mobile) Giulia talks about innovation versus heritage, why the first question in any home project should be emotional rather than aesthetic, and how Molteni keeps the legacy of Gio Ponti alive through exclusive re-editions. They also discuss why Milan has become one of the most important global capitals for design. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    The 2026 Travel Pulse, with Veronica Bocelli

    January starts with a little existential whiplash but then it’s turned into a travel and trends forecast. In the first half, Jack and Annie start planning for 2026 and look back on surprises of the last month: Dubai’s glow-up (Jack likes to say it’s the new winter St. Tropez); client shifts like less alcohol and the most-requested feature of the moment: a padel court. Annie shares her latest obsession, Estelle Manor in the English countryside, plus a quick New York trip (Faena has the best bar in NYC right now and the Waldorf’s public spaces are incredible). In the second half, Jack sits down with Veronica Bocelli at the Ritz-Carlton Central Park for a meaningful conversation about how the Andrea Bocelli Foundation scaled its mission through education and music, and how philanthropy, community, and culture intersect in the Bocellis’ Italy world, like Forte dei Marmi — including how Embark clients can access exclusive, invitation-only Bocelli concerts and gala experiences in Italy. Stay tuned for how they met at the very end. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    2026 Hot Hotels & Destinations

    Jack and Annie give a recap of ILTM (International Luxury Travel Market) Cannes (only a small bit of gossip this year), plus favorite hotel openings and destinations for 2026 from the Q4 trends report and why sustainability is the word of the quarter, but not in the way you're thinking. And at the end, listen for Jack's big tip on how to save 50% on airfare to Japan and add on a trip to Amanpulo at the same time. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    The Big Fall Update, Just Us

    Jack and Annie check in after a buzzing trip to Milan (“Salone is the new Art Basel”) and break down why the city is on fire right now. They swap hotel notes–the Park Hyatt Milan bar playlist really is that good–before diving into Annie’s new Roman obsession, the Orient Express La Minerva, and the fabulous hotel in Germany where she got the best Botox of her life (“a tiny but exquisite facelift”). They also debate the credibility of the World’s 50 Best list (and all the lists) and why Annie loved the glamour of it and being surrounded by hotel obsessives. Plus, at the end, Annie interviews Jack about his favorite things to do and why Monaco always calls him back.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Surprise, Delight, Disrupt: Omer Acar on Hospitality

    Jack and Annie check in live from Hotel Lutetia in Paris, swapping honeymoon ideas for Taylor Swift (think Royal Malewane, Cape Town, Singita, and Kisawa), their own fall goals (half marathons, stylists, Africa trips, and launching lifestyle experiences), and why travel is the ultimate way to activate passions. Then, a conversation with Omer Acar, CEO of Raffles and Fairmont, one of the top minds in global hospitality, and one of Jack's major inspirations. He shares why he makes his bed every day (even in hotels), how luxury brands should surprise, delight, and disrupt, and the lessons he’s learned leading some of the world’s most iconic hotels. Omer talks passion, curiosity, inspiration, his favorite thing about living in New York City, and the TV show that has him hooked. Just don't try to find him on Instagram. Hosted on Acast.
