Simeon also forecasts whether Nike can maintain its magic for another 20 years—and if so, how will Nike maintain its mystique in a fragmented cultural landscape?

The Ringer’s Amanda Dobbins joins Lauren on the pod to discuss one of their shared interests: Sofia Coppola. Together, the duo interrogate Coppola’s relationship with fashion, on- and off-screen: her incredible influence on modern aesthetics, her impact on the industry, and why she’s personally important to them.
