Join host James Aguiar as he sits down with "noted" fashion photographer Nigel Barker.

Nigel is a multifaceted English personality known for his work as a fashion photographer, author, filmmaker, former model, and reality television star. He rose to international recognition through his role as a judge and photographer on the popular reality show America's Next Top Model. Beyond America's Next Top Model, Barker has engaged in a variety of other projects:

Watch and listen as James and Nigel go behind the labels and talk about everything from those legendary America's Next Top Model editorial shoots, The famous Tyra Banks and Naomi Campbell beef and what it was like working with both legends. Learn how Nigel himself began his career on a modeling competition show, and what he thinks of camera phones. We talk about his two books, what really makes a super model and his latest venture in ready to drink cocktails.

His brand the Barker Company has hit the RTD market in a huge way. With his bottled (and canned) espresso martini and cappuccino martini making huge moves in the industry in a short amount of time.

No subject is left untouched!

Also James highs and lows in pop culture just might involve a very stinky cruise as well as a look back at Ballroom culture through the lens of a very beautiful film.

Join host James Aguiar as he sits down with Pulitzer Prize winning author Robin Givhan. Robin is an acclaimed American fashion critic and journalist, currently serving as the Senior Critic-at-Large for the Washington Post where she covers fashion,politics, race and the arts.

Robin earned the Pulitzer Prize for Criticism in 2006, becoming the first fashion writer to receive that honor.

She has authored books such as The Battle of versailles: The Night American fashion Stumbled into the Spotlight and Made History (2015), and most recently, Make it Ours: Crashing the Gates of culture with Virgil Abloh, published June 24, 2025.

We speak about the in and outs of Virgil's rise to the top of luxury fashion and what inspires her to write a book in the first place. She takes a surprise question from a mystery person and explains what she thinks of Michael Jackson and Beyonce as fashion icons.

I also unpack the word "delusional" and hear my highs and lows which include the "dangling divas" and the fascinating life of a rock groups muse and inspiration.
