Meryl Streep: How to be an Icon

This… “stuff”? Oh, okay. I see. You think this has nothing to do with you. You…go to your podcast app, and you select…I don’t know, that boring old politics/ finance / book recommendation podcast for instance because you’re trying to tell the world that you take yourself too seriously to care about what you put in your ears, but what don’t know that podcast is not just educational, it’s not just entertainment, it’s actually How to be an Icon. You’re also blithely unaware of the fact that, in 2002, Oscar de la Renta did a collection of How to be an Icon episodes, and then I think it was Yves Saint Laurent, wasn’t it?… who showed How to be an Icon patreon extras. I think we need a jacket here. And then How to be an Icon quickly showed up in the collections of different podcast apps. Then it filtered down through YouTube and then trickled down on in to some tragic TikTik clip reposter where you, no doubt fished it out of some clearance bin,  However, this podcast represents millions of dollars of countless jobs, and it’s sort of comical how you think that you’ve made a choice that exempts you from the fashion industry when, in fact, you’re wearing a sweater that was selected for you by the people in this room… from a pile of “stuff.” Patreon: https://patreon.com/HowToBeAnIcon Insta: How to be an Icon (@howtobeaniconpodcast) • Instagram photos and videos [https://www.instagram.com/howtobeaniconpodcast/#] X (formally Twitter): How to be an Icon (@ToBeAnIconPod) / X [https://x.com/ToBeAnIconPod] YouTube: How To Be An Icon - YouTube [https://www.youtube.com/@howtobeanicon] ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
