Traveling Through with David Prior

At age ten, Flynn McGarry was cooking professionally and covered as a curiosity by publications around the world. Now 27, he runs the New York restaurant Cove and cafe-meets-farm-stand Gem Home. Despite the headlines accompanying his arrival onto the scene, his personal and professional evolution has been much quieter and more studied. Flynn joins the show to trace the stages, flea markets, design obsessions, and far-flung meals that have shaped his singular vision, and to make the case that a restaurant is always the sum of everything around it.

Deborah Needleman spent decades shaping how we think about design. She founded Domino and edited T: The New York Times Style Magazine before leaving it all behind to become a student of craft. She joins David to talk about what curiosity looks like when there's no magazine to fill. She explores textiles in India, broom-making in Japan, and basketry in Morocco, pursuing hands-on experience that exposes universal themes in human nature and drive.

Interior designer Nate Berkus has spent decades turning objects into stories — first as Oprah's design authority, then helming his own acclaimed firm and product collections. He joins the show to talk about the places and things that have shaped him: from the antique markets of his Midwestern childhood to an 18th-century farm in Portugal; with a stop in Laos he almost didn't take, and a return to Sri Lanka that changed everything.

The designer who transformed J.Crew into a cultural institution and redefined American style? That is of course Jenna Lyons. In this episode, she joins David to trace the eye for color and texture she's spent a lifetime collecting on the road.
