Customer Reviews
Love this show!
It’s so interesting and well presented, can’t wait to hear more. Would love episodes on goth style, beachwear/the bikini, the kimono, Chanel…
Unbelievably high standards each episode
Each episode feels like a whole series of another show. And Avery has such a spontaneous delivery style - she creates a world where she can take us along really complicated paths but with her as an open and learning fellow traveller. The Ivy series was unreal, but they really are all just head and shoulders above almost every other podcast I listen to. The show I always click on first if there’s a new episode.
Excellent show!
I love Articles of Interest, it is really well researched and produced and Avery is a thoughtful host and journalist. Each episode is so well considered and like a little piece of audio art in itself. An intelligent look at the fashion industry and the social history behind trends.
