Industry of Cool

This week on Industry of Cool, we sit down with actress Harley Delcogliano, whose journey stretches from New Jersey to Vero Beach, Miami, and now Brooklyn.From discovering acting in high school to training at New World School of the Arts, Harley shares what it really takes to commit to the path, especially on the days when motivation is nowhere to be found.We talk discipline, passion, and the quiet decision to keep showing up.Then, we dive into The Fifth Element! its unforgettable cinematography, bold wardrobe, and the influence of cinéma du look, while also touching on the controversy surrounding the director’s relationship with a young actress from the film.It’s a conversation about art, ambition, and the complicated layers behind the things we love.

Valentina joins Industry of Cool for a conversation that feels equal parts time capsule and fever dream. We dive into Love Story: JFK Jr. & Carolyn Bessette Kennedy and everything that makes it impossible to look away. From the haunting soundtrack to the obsessive detail behind the wardrobe and set design, recreated almost photograph by photograph.We talk about the casting, the mythology of the Kennedy family, and the lingering belief that John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy never really left?Valentina reads a letter Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis wrote about JFK, discovered through a Lana Del Rey music video, reminding us about the love they shared, very powerful and nostalgic.We close on a lighter note with the return of Laguna Beach, 22 years later, and somehow still part of the conversation.It’s reflective, chaotic, a little romantic, and very us.📲 Follow us:📌 Instagram Industry of Cool:   / industryofcool_pod  📌 Instagram Valeria Zea:   / valezea7  📌 Instagram Cultura TV:   / culturatvofficial  

In our first online episode of Industry of Cool, we’re joined by actor Daniel Frias, whose path into acting was anything but traditional. From coaching basketball to moving countries and starting from zero. We talk about his journey, his mindset as an actor, stepping into “El Marqués” in Sal De Mi Playlist, and one of the films that shaped him, Scarface. It’s honest, a little fearless, and a reminder that sometimes the best decisions don’t make sense…until they do.📲 Follow us:📌 Instagram Industry of Cool: https://www.instagram.com/industryofcool_pod/📌 Instagram Valeria Zea: https://www.instagram.com/valezea7/📌 Instagram Cultura TV: https://www.instagram.com/culturatvofficial/ 📲 Guest Daniel Frias:📌 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/danielfriasfaas

We’re breaking down Season 3 of Tell Me Lies! From the soundtrack and wardrobe to the chaos that defined the storyline. We dive into our theories, the jaw-dropping finale, and every messy moment in between: Bree leaking the video, Lucy getting expelled, and Stephen exposing everyone at the wedding. Who ended the season as our favorite character? And who officially joined Stephen as the villain? Who really got the last laugh? And could a spin-off actually be on the table? Valeria, Krystel, and Valentina analyze key scenes, character decisions, and the realistic portrayal of complex emotions in the series, offering perspectives and theories about the finale.A lot of opinions, a lot of laughter, and a lot of reliving what might be the most unhinged season yet. An epic season deserves an episode like this.

Esta semana en Industry of Cool, me siento con los primos favoritos de la familia — Nick & George. Son los gemelos idénticos que iluminan cualquier lugar: siempre haciendo reír, contando historias inolvidables y, de repente, llevándote a una conversación profunda cuando menos lo esperas.

A mitad del episodio recibimos una llamada sorpresa de la mamá más cool — mi mamá, Angela. También conversamos sobre sus películas favoritas (The Parent Trap y Crazy Stupid Love), y cerramos con un picante juego de Yo Nunca Nunca.📲 Follow us:📌 Instagram Industry of Cool: https://www.instagram.com/industryofcool_pod/📌 Instagram Valeria Zea: https://www.instagram.com/valezea7/📌 Instagram Cultura TV: https://www.instagram.com/culturatvofficial/ 📲 Guest: Nick & George📌 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/george_dsp/📌 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nickbsp94/
