Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Post-Podcast Reflections: The Most Interesting Man in Music

• The hosts open by marveling at their latest guest, who boasts accolades like Grammy and Oscar wins as well as author status. They’re astounded and amused that he reportedly edits his own Wikipedia page (“Glad to clear that up. Doing journalism as we always do... he himself edits it.” — Jimmy, 00:29).
• They express both admiration and skepticism about a figure of such stature still handling mundane online tasks, joking about humility and the accuracy of his Wikipedia stats.
• The recurring theme: Is self-promotion online ever really valid? Should you make your own Wikipedia page?

2. “Fit Check” Rundowns: Rainy Day Drip

• As always, the podcast segues into a detailed breakdown of daily outfits.
  • Larry’s Fit: Timberlands (“because it was raining”), Bottega Veneta jeans, Cortez beater, vintage Woolrich work shirt, Snake America hat, “Rolly on the wrist,” and “our legacy Stussy boxers. Because I’m in desperate need of some laundry.” (02:11–02:52)
  • Jimmy’s Fit: Throwing Fits x DMA collab outerwear, random short socks, Arach jeans (“they’re pretty wide, I can only wear them with a boot or fat ass sneaker”), Engineered Garments tee, Orly Skipper Polo, Broken Arm hat, and Arc’teryx rain jacket—standard rainproof cycling gear. (08:15–09:17)
• They rib each other about ankle size, fit choices, and the practicalities of city style on a rainy day.

3. The Skim Milk Debate: Upbringing, Taste, and Strong Bones?

• Larry reveals his upbringing as a “skim milk household.” (03:32–03:46)
  • “My bones are skinny, but they’re strong.” — Larry, 04:02
• They mock skim milk passionately:
  • “When I see skim milk, it is just like chalky ass water.” — Jimmy, 04:33
  • Larry concedes: “No, it’s definitely white water for sure.” (04:45)
• Talk veers into adult beverage choices (how much milk in coffee?), health, and what it means when your adult preferences are shaped by childhood.
• Both clarify where they stand on actual coffee:
  • Larry: “I just want... a dash of skim and I’m good to go. That’s really—I just want it for the caffeine. I don’t enjoy, like, drinking coffee.”
  • Jimmy: “Oh, I love drinking coffee.” (05:17–05:18)
• Additional fun tangent on the underrated joys of coffee ice cream and the dessert affogato.

4. Raw Milk, Coffee Snobbery, and Libertarian Dairy Rights

• The conversation moves toward the cultural moment of “raw milk,” its legality, and rumors about its taste and health effects.
• “It’s a state’s right issue. It’s the abortion of dairy.” — Jimmy, 07:25
• “It’s the plan B pill of dairy.” — Jimmy, 07:31
• They share a short anecdote about almost buying raw milk in Vermont but chickening out due to impending wedding plans and not wanting to risk stomach issues.
• There’s also a little riff on regional pride (Vermont vs. New Hampshire, Ethan Allen) and whether any of this is actually cool.
• They touch on the current trend of not seeing skim milk in cafes anymore, only at diners.

5. Coffee, Rituals, and Price Sensitivity

• Jimmy admits to overspending on cold brew for podcasting: “I pay a little too much for my liking for the daily cold brew...” (06:39)
• Larry clarifies he’s not a coffee snob and doesn’t care for coffee’s taste, just its function.
• There’s a tangent about “coffee dry rub on a steak,” the Dunkin versus bougie coffee debate, and how many podcasts they’re recording that week (“six podcasts this week,” Larry, 06:45).

6. Music Mini-Analysis: The Police

• Jimmy shares listening to a live Police album while biking in the rain (09:39), triggering nostalgic music discussion.
• “Police are one of the best—one of the best trios, I would say.” — Larry, 09:47
• Quick speculation about how notable producer Mark Ronson would rank The Police, and riffing on the band’s reggae influences and reputation.
• “Well, it’s white guys acting black. I’m sure he loves them.” — Jimmy, 09:58
• Final amusing moments include Sting’s presence at the U.S. Open with Shaggy, and hypothetical celebrity interactions (“That Sting’s culture, dude.” — Larry, 10:25)

---

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• “To have an Academy award winner on the podcast is crazy. But the fact that someone of that stature...does all these things himself. Humble guy.” — Larry (00:38)
• “If you do [your Wikipedia page] yourself, it’s not real, dude.” — Larry (01:28)
• “Two types of people in this world: Doers and...problem solvers.” — Jimmy (01:38)
• “My bones are skinny, but they’re strong.” — Larry (04:02)
• “It’s a state’s right issue. It’s the abortion of dairy.” — Jimmy (07:25)

Tone & Style

As always, Jimmy and Larry keep the mood light, irreverent, and self-aware—unafraid to poke fun at themselves or each other. Their banter lands somewhere between nitpicky menswear geekery and deadpan observational humor, combining cultural commentary, nostalgia, and their entrenched positions in the “dirtbag” podcasting lifestyle.

This episode is a casual, comedic exploration of taste, ritual, and self-image—a true Throwing Fits boys-only session.

Transcript

[Jimmy]

Welcome to another midweek, boys only. I think this is what this is. Mini, mini midweeker uncut bonus content. It's not bonus uncut content for our best friends behind the payment.

[Larry]

Ain't nothing bonus. This is just straight content with your boys. Ear holes.

[Jimmy]

Jimmy and Larry, after a late morning rainy Wednesday podcast with the one and only the most interesting man in music.

[Larry]

God damn. A published. A published author, an Oscar winner, a nine time Grammy winner.

[Jimmy]

Glad to clear that up. Doing journalism as we always do. And his Wikipedia is a must read, if only because he himself edits it.

[Larry]

That's crazy. I honestly don't believe that. He said he's like, yo, I updated liar. Dude, he's a capper. No, I mean that's. It's crazy that it's so. It's funny how hands on he is. You would think that he. He's. Bro, I don't know if this matters to you because I can't get over it. To have an Academy award winner on the podcast is crazy. But the fact that someone of that stature who has that statue does all these things himself. Humble guy.

[Jimmy]

I don't know if he does all these things himself except lug his crates. Crates of vinyl around and edit his Wikipedia. Also, it would have been updated. Also it needs to be updated because he clearly marked. You're slipping, bro.

[Larry]

Yeah, the Grammys. Are the Grammy numbers wrong. Some outdated information. I'm pretty butt hurt that we don't have a Wikipedia page. I don't know if we're worthy of one.

[Jimmy]

Do something about it.

[Larry]

Not because. No, because that's. That's that. If that. If you do it yourself, it's not real. Dude.

[Jimmy]

Who else is gonna do it? I don't know.

[Larry]

Some. Some fans, some members of the thorough guys.

[Jimmy]

Two types of people in this world. Lawrence Doers and no problem identifiers and problem solvers.

[Larry]

Oh, I love identifying problems and doing nothing about them.

[Jimmy]

I know. Yeah, I know.

[Larry]

Would you say you're yourself? You're a self starter, problem solving, leader of men.

[Jimmy]

No, I'm not. I would not. I would not say that.

[Larry]

Well, you are. Well, you are on this show by default.

[Jimmy]

Let me tell you what I will say.

[Larry]

Yeah, hit me.

[Jimmy]

I will tell you what I'm wearing today in a fit check. Actually, why don't you start?

[Larry]

Okay. I wore. Because it was raining. I wore Timberlands. Some samietas.

[Jimmy]

Let me see. How choked are they normally?

[Larry]

Normally choked? Ethically not to the top eyelet. No, never.

[Jimmy]

You got some slack in those lines? A little Bit. Your ankles are fucking screaming for help.

[Larry]

No, I got fucking room to maneuver.

[Jimmy]

You do have chicken legs. Yeah, it's impossible to choke out those chickens.

[Larry]

Yeah, I guess you're right, huh? Even like I was wearing some Converse, the new ol Converse. And I was like damn. When they, when you really, when you. Because that's just fabric. And you see that on your skinny ass ankle, you're like damn bro.

[Jimmy]

They're like scrunched up because there's all this extra fabric.

[Larry]

God, if only the rest of me was as lean as my fucking beautiful hindquarters. I would have a different life. Presumably. My socks are man Risa. The jeans are Bottega Veneta. The beater is Cortez. The work shirt is a vintage Woolrich work shirt. The hat is Snake America. Shout out. Sammy Reese. Rolly on the wrist. Wedding ring on the fing wave. And the piggy Chrome on the other hand. Lori says finest in the hydro flask. Moderate strength zins. And the underwear are our legacy Stussy boxers. Because I'm in desperate need of some laundry.

[Jimmy]

Would you ever drink raw milk?

[Larry]

Yeah, sure.

[Jimmy]

Our raw milk. Did you fans or friend?

[Larry]

Sammy, I drank a lot. My family was a. Was a milk family.

[Jimmy]

No bro, you didn't listen to rap music until you're 20 years old, 18 years old.

[Larry]

But we were a skim milk household. So my I, I like skim milk the best.

[Jimmy]

Ew.

[Larry]

Know it's. But it's just like what I know. Drink what you know people.

[Jimmy]

But what do you.

[Larry]

But I would.

[Jimmy]

What, in what scenarios are you drinking skim milk?

[Larry]

Well, I don't drink it anymore now that I'm a grown ass man with strong ass bones.

[Jimmy]

Listen, don't have strong bones because you're drinking the skim. You're not.

[Larry]

I was still. At least I was drinking milk. Dude, the bones are skinny, but they're strong.

[Jimmy]

Dude, the bones are skinny.

[Larry]

I don't drink milk at all. But if I was gonna. If I my choice of milks to put into a coffee, I'm gonna, I, I do. I'm just drawn to skim. What do they call that? Non fat. What do they call that now? Skim is non fat. What's the term?

[Jimmy]

2%. You have non fat? Yeah, I rarely see white one option anymore.

[Larry]

Yeah, I don't think so.

[Jimmy]

I don't think. I was never, I was never a milk. I'm not a milk. Stop now. Where it's like, oh yeah, it's raw or whole milk or nothing, but I do. I Do believe that when I, When I see raw. When I see skim milk, it is just like chalky ass water.

[Larry]

Right? Right. No, it's definitely white water for sure.

[Jimmy]

To get like the. To get like a. A good amount of like milk and dairy in your coffee, you got to put a shitload of skim milk in there.

[Larry]

Yeah, I'm not, I don't like. I know there's certain people. I'm not equating, like the milk to, like, sugar or anything like that. Like, people. Yeah, some people want like the frothy bev. They want a sweet bev. Like, I just. Yeah, just. I just want to. If I'm having a black, like a cup of coffee, I just. Yeah. Dash of skim and I'm good to go. That's really. I just want it for the caffeine. Right. I don't enjoy. I don't know about you. I don't enjoy, like, drinking coffee.

[Jimmy]

Oh, I love drinking coffee.

[Larry]

I need it. Oh, like the, like the ritual and then the taste of it.

[Jimmy]

The ritual. Interesting. Coffee ice cream. Underrated, but it's a nice little affogato. What do you call me?

[Larry]

I love an affogato, though. That's. That's dessert, though. That's not. But It's Alpha. God. AlphaGado's a dessert. That's not like.

[Jimmy]

But it's with coffee.

[Jimmy]

I'm just talking about coffee flavored things.

[Larry]

Okay.

[Jimmy]

Just coffee. Coffee dry rub on a steak.

[Larry]

Oh, no, wait. Really? It's good. Good. I mean, I want my. I want my meat seasoned pause. Yeah, I don't coffee dry, but I'm also.

[Jimmy]

I love coffee from Dunkin Donuts, bro.

[Larry]

Yeah. Oh, I'm not a snob. To be clear. I'm not a coffee snob.

[Jimmy]

I pay a little too much for my liking for the daily cold brew when we podcast. What is this, number two this week of four?

[Larry]

Yeah, actually with afters, bro, we're doing six podcasts this week.

[Jimmy]

Well, they're not called afters. The thing about skim milk is that it's just ineffective milk.

[Larry]

It's skim, it's diet. Diet, diet milk.

[Jimmy]

It's a splash of milk. It's not gonna. No, no, it's just, you know, alter your.

[Larry]

Your.

[Jimmy]

Your physiognomy.

[Larry]

My preference from my youth, how I was raised. You skim milk in a culdesac.

[Jimmy]

I. I don't ever, like, at this. At this, like, snobby coffee place. It's whole milk and half and half. I. What I'm saying is that I rarely see skim milk as an option at a coffee shop.

[Larry]

Right, right. I'm with you.

[Jimmy]

Unless you're, like, at a diner.

[Larry]

Wait, so back to raw milk. Have you had it? Is it illegal? What's the deal? It's, like, bad, I think it's gray area.

[Jimmy]

It's a state. It's a state's right issue. It's the abortion of dairy.

[Larry]

Libertarians, rise up, dude.

[Jimmy]

Yeah, it's. It's the. It's the plan B pill of dairy.

[Larry]

I would like to try some.

[Jimmy]

Honestly, I haven't had it. I don't have any real desire. I'm not going to seek it out. I was in the. Was I. I was in Vermont.

[Larry]

Oh, and we drove by Milk country, brother.

[Jimmy]

We drove by a barn that said, like, for sale, raw milk and.

[Larry]

Right.

[Jimmy]

Yo, we should. We should try it. But. Oh, that's right before a wedding. It was right before Ash with the big hogs wedding. So, like, what, we don't want to get sick?

[Larry]

No, right before a wedding.

[Jimmy]

There's gonna be enough poison going into our bodies.

[Larry]

Live for your dies. New Hampshire. Yeah, okay. But similar mentality with the raw milk up in Vermont.

[Jimmy]

Well, Vermont had the. The Green Mountain Boys. Ethan Allen.

[Larry]

Right, right, right. The. The couch makers. No, you know Ethan Allen, the furniture company. Oh, no, never mind. All right. That reference was lost on you. I got it. What do you wear today, bro?

[Jimmy]

I'm wearing Throwing fits. X. Dma. Our first ever collaboration.

[Larry]

Collaboration.

[Jimmy]

Shout out. Matt's the dude that we saw in Copenhagen. Yeah, dma. He's like, yo, throwback, Yo, Chat. Should we bring. Should we bring that back? This collab. Let us know. The socks are. I actually wore short socks with the boots.

[Larry]

Oh, look at you.

[Jimmy]

I don't mind it, though, because the. Yo. The. The suede is so supple and the rubber lining is so. Or the leather lining so supple that, like, it's. It doesn't matter.

[Larry]

How short are the socks. Like, there. Like here. Oh, okay. So you almost made it.

[Jimmy]

Yeah, just a random sock band from Amazon. The jeans are arach. I can only wear. They're pretty wide. I can only wear them with, like, a boot or, like, a fat ass sneaker.

[Larry]

The width, cuz for. I see what you're saying, but for me it's always about, like, length. Not.

[Jimmy]

I got them hemmed. I got them hemmed.

[Larry]

It's the width. Gotcha.

[Jimmy]

It's the.

[Larry]

The gota.

[Jimmy]

It's the. It's the hole.

[Larry]

Well, I'm happy that you could today.

[Jimmy]

Biking. Oh, that's what they do.

[Jimmy]

Yeah.

[Larry]

Yeah. Well, I mean, it's fucking. How else you. You're biking in the rain. Like, I don't think anyone's, like, judging you. It's the elements, you know? Yeah, yeah.

What year?

[Jimmy]

73 in Boston. I believe maybe 79.

[Larry]

Police are I, like, one of the best. One of the best trios, I would say. I wonder what Mark. I wonder what Mark Ronson thinks of the. The police.

[Jimmy]

Well, it's white guys acting black. I'm sure he loves them.

[Larry]

They were.

[Jimmy]

They took elements of reggae, bro. That's the whole thing. The asynchronicity of the percussion is from dubstep and reggae.

[Larry]

Isn't there one of the albums is called Synchronicity? Right. Anyway, I'm not a.

[Jimmy]

What am I a cop?

[Larry]

Shout out. Skating and shout out. Yeah. And shout out to.

Yo. Sting was at the U. S Open. Children. Shaggy. Are they. They must be boys.
