OM DENNE EPISODE
This week I'm thinking about three things in pop culture that have an unexpected through-line: Catherine O'Hara's comedy, a new book about mattering, and the Roseberry siblings' creative partnership.
What connects them is the difference between performance and being performative. When art comes from genuine care and alignment—not external validation—that's when it sticks with us. That's when we feel truth.
I talk about Catherine O'Hara's uniquely empathetic approach to comedy (from Waiting for Guffman to Moira Rose), Jennifer Breheny Wallace's book "Mattering" and what happens when our intrinsic and extrinsic values are misaligned, and why Daniel Roseberry's Schiaparelli and his sister Liz's jewelry work have reignited something for me after years of feeling uninspired by fashion.
This is what's getting me through the week.
