D
New era.
C
Lift the frame up.
D
Are we out of frame?
C
Yeah, we're out of frame. Okay. I think it's like, sitting down sucks. And, like, I was thinking about this. This is. This is how my brain works, right? I was like, yo, okay, no spoilers. But if and when we're in Paris for Men's Fashion Week, I'm like. Because I was on the city bike. I was like, oh, I can't wait to be city. Biking through Paris, listening to mgmt, Bronski Beat and Genesis and Phil Collins. Okay. Mgmt. Kids, of course.
D
Always classic, you know?

Yeah, yeah. Maps.

D

D

D

C
You're not going to wear a nussy to the orally show.
D
Speaking of sitting down, it's funny you bring that up. I was sitting next to Jenna last night watching the Knicks game and it really struck her, I guess for the first time, this whole thing where I have no torso. So we're like, you know my wife, who's fucking 5:1. Yeah. Fucking 15 years. She's like, she's like, wait a second. She's like, this is crazy. She's like, how tall are you?
C
You know, whatever.
D
And she's like, let me actually measure you. And I was shocked. I have lived my whole life, as I've said on the show, became a bit for a while. Five, ten and a half. Which sounds like a lie, but I always thought was accurate. Absolutely. A straight lie. But I am exactly 5 10. I've been lying about my height to everybody.
C
Yeah.
D
For my entire adult life. I'm sorry, I'm only 5 10, maybe
C
beers help you grow.
D
I was like, yo, am I shrinking because I'm old? Yeah, I mean, but. And I. Bad posture. But dude, that was a swallow.
C
It's because you're not high anymore.
D
Listen, your boy. Your boy is always going to be high response.
C
If you're high, you're tall.
D
That is true. And I think it's just more of like an aura thing where it's like, if you just have confidence, like, I.
C
Whatever, dude.
D
Not that I want to be like, five, six, but it was always insane
C
that you're like, yeah, five, ten, and a half. It's like, why would you.
D
No, but that's my. And the whole argument always was like, this is so specific. It's not a lie, clearly. But it was. But it was.
C
But I have to just insert that half inch.
D
It's a lie. Anyway, I'm sorry, did you measure your
C
torso or just your overall height?
D
No, we just did the. The whole. The whole height.
C
Because your head is what, like 8 inches tall?
D
It's pretty. Well, yeah, I don't know. No, I think it's more. I think my face length or my head length is normal. It's the circumference that is circumference.
C
This shallow ass, cranial.
D
Totally, dude.
C
Anyway, next, get Jenna to measure the various components of your vertical. So it's like head, neck, torso, legs.
D
Well, literally sitting next to my barely 51 wife. I have 1 inch on her shoulder. It's. It is absurd. All legs, dude.
C
Your torso is technically suffers from dwarfism.
D
I do. I have a dwarf torso. A dwarf. So, dude, it's a new medical condition.
C
You got the chest of little alien.
D
Yeah, they're calling it Larry disease. It's a new thing named after me, dude. Dwarf. So let's.
C
Let's get a GoFundMe going, please.
D
So you get torso extension surgery. Anyway, the boxes are skims or boxer briefs are skims. James, what did you wear today?
C
The shoes are Echo Collective X Echo Lata. The socks are just generic Amazon socks. The pants are pen. The shirt is orally spring, new season.
D
I saw you got a tasty little spread. You going plaids for spring. Looked a lot of plaids and checks and even look at what we got hanging up over there. Not. This is not a tease for a product. It's another shirt you took off yesterday's plaid.
C
I think I had a few plaids and checks in the rotation already. But with the orally selection, obviously, I think of the four that I got, one is a stripey, two are this plaid. I think I got like a short sleeve version of this. Basically kind of like vacation shirt.
D
Good pattern.
C
And then like a light brown check. Not a plaid, but a check.
D
Tasty.
C
Yeah. And then the coat is Student Nicholson. Shout out to Stu, Nick, Ms. Wakeman if you're nasty. Our legacy on this wrist. And on this wrist, Lawrence. Oh, Hanes boxers. On this wrist, Lawrence.
D
A new addition.
C
Let's see what time it is. It's 1257.
D
Okay, that was good.
C
It's 1257.
D
I fell for it.

This episode of Throwing Fits brings the signature irreverent banter of hosts Lawrence Schlossman and James Harris to a sprawling, silly comparison of “car guys” versus “watch guys.” The hosts begin with fashion fit checks, detour into personal anecdotes, and riff on everything from the recent Miami F1 weekend to existential concerns about aging. As always, their dynamic blends inside jokes, pop culture observations, and winking self-awareness for an episode that's both unserious and sneakily insightful.
Lawrence’s fit:
James’ fit:
True to Throwing Fits’ brand, the tone is caustic, quick-witted, and self-deprecating, with riffs that spiral from fashion into confessions, aging anxieties, and elaborate inside jokes. The chemistry between Lawrence and James—one earnestly self-aware, the other needling—creates a breezy but entertaining session for listeners attuned to fashion, internet culture, and millennial malaise.
This summary skips advertisements, promotional sections, and focuses exclusively on substantive podcast content—fit checks, cultural asides, and the hosts’ reflections on personal quirks and the zeitgeist.
