1stDibs has officially launched its first-ever podcast titled Objects of Desire to explore the intersection of design and emotion. This new series marks a significant move for the leading marketplace into the world of cultural storytelling. Tony Freund and Noz Nozawa host the bi-weekly episodes. They speak with creative leaders about specific items that hold deep personal meaning.
The podcast aims to humanize the high-end design brand. It moves beyond simple transactions to focus on the heart of creativity. Each episode features a guest discussing a single art or design object. These items often serve as emotional touchstones or cherished memories for the guests. The show provides an intimate look at the stories behind beautiful things.
“Everyone has that one piece that isn’t just an object, but a reflection of who they once were or who they aspire to be,” says Freund. “The things we gravitate to aren’t always determined by ‘taste’ or aesthetics, and this podcast is where the world’s most interesting people share the personally revealing stories behind the objects they love.”
Exploring Design Through Personal Stories
The first season features an impressive lineup of eight episodes. Guests include actress Patricia Clarkson and author Elizabeth Gilbert. Art critic Jerry Saltz and costume designer Molly Rogers also join the conversations. The show combines professional design expertise with a sophisticated and accessible tone.
Listeners can now find Objects of Desire on major platforms like Apple Podcasts and Spotify. New episodes will drop every other Tuesday. This initiative coincides with content from Introspective, the weekly digital magazine from 1stDibs. The magazine will provide deeper insights into the creators of the objects featured on the show. This multi-channel approach enriches the experience for design enthusiasts worldwide.
