Throwing Fits – PATREON PREVIEW: A24 Pack

Date: November 7, 2025
Hosts: James Harris & Lawrence Schlossman

EPISODE OVERVIEW

In this Patreon preview, the Throwing Fits boys, James and Lawrence, invite listeners into an unfiltered, off-the-cuff weekly fit check and life catch-up. The conversation pivots from the mundane realities of wardrobe choices to the unique way they source life solutions—by crowdsourcing health and wellness through their audience. With signature banter, they muse on bloody nipples, cease-and-desist drama, uniform dressing, healthcare hacks, and tattoo cravings. As always, the vibe oscillates between self-effacing humor and candid takes on their own lives as minor internet celebrities.

KEY DISCUSSION POINTS & INSIGHTS

• Lawrence's Fit:

  • Boots: YMC Grenson collab
  • Socks: Threadies
  • Jeans: Generica
  • Quarter Zip: Colbo, “not quite a track jacket, but more a windbreaker in a unique, non-nylon material”
  • Layering: Hanes beater (to “make sure I don’t have bloody nipples under my beautiful quarter zip” - Lawrence, 02:13)
  • Hat: Triple O (formerly Options) — leading to a recount of brand-related cease and desist chaos
  • Underwear: Hanro boxers (“Just because it was right there…maybe ‘cause I’m just like, whatever, boom.” - Lawrence, 04:51)

• James's Fit:

  • Shoes: Rear installment boots—due to ongoing plantar fasciitis
  • Socks: Unsure
  • Jeans: Orslow
  • Undershirt: Paper thin vintage T-shirt (“You can see my tattoos, you can see that I have tattoos.” - James, 11:49)
  • Yearning for other footwear but constrained by current foot problems

2. Cease and Desist Saga with Options/Triple O (03:26–04:30)

• Lawrence shares the odd legal drama from wearing a Triple O (formerly Options) hat:
  • “We got a true cease and desist…he thinks that we were selling them and promoting them.” (Lawrence, 03:58)

5. Uniform Dressing & Fit Constraints (09:30–11:13)

• James discusses how shoe constraints have forced him into partial uniform dressing:
  • “There’s never been a single component where I’m like, oh, I know what I’m going to wear ahead of time…I got to build the fit around that.” (James, 10:11)
  • Lawrence wonders if this streamlining is a Steve Jobs/Zuckerberg-style efficiency hack.
  • “It saved me approximately three seconds a day. That shit adds up.” (James, 11:06)
