The Gentleman‘s Journal brings you exclusive interviews with the world‘s most interesting tastemakers, entrepreneurs and raconteurs. Hosted by Joseph Bullmore.
The founders of the global tailoring brand on the importance of fun, why shops should be more like restaurants, making sequined jumpsuits, the most stylish nations in the world, the health of Savile Row, the fall and rise of the tie, and the prospect of celebrating their 20th anniversary next year.
Founder Harry Jarman and editor Joe Bullmore look over the very special 50th issue of Gentleman's Journal — going behind-the-scenes on the stories and interviews inside, and reflecting on the long and winding history of the magazine so far.
In a special episode recorded at their five-night residency below Simpsons-in-the-Strand in London, People's co-founders Margot Hauer-King and Emmet McDermott discuss the origin of the venue's name, their cinematic first meeting, and why it's important to be 'the rope and the wave'.
Martin is the founder of The Dover, Dover Street Counter, and Martino's — three of the most beloved and successful new restaurants in London. Here, the former COO of Soho House Group talks about how the first seconds of any restaurant experience are the most important, the problem with members clubs, and the power of the playlist.
In the week before this year's Watches & Wonders, Gentleman's Journal watch editor Justin Hast makes his predictions for the event — while also touching on some landmark anniversaries this year, the breakout marques he has his eye on, and the very special new watch that he has just added to his collection.
Join Gentleman’s Journal Editor-in-Chief Harry Jarman, Editor Joe Bullmore and Motoring Editor-at-Large Rory FH Smith on the cars to know about in 2026, the inside scoop on the teams and drivers behind the new season of Formula One and why WhatsApp's founder needs two, near identical £300m mega yachts.
Jeremy King first appeared on our podcast in the summer of 2020, when we met in a whirring office above The Wolseley, the flagship restaurant of his sprawling Corbin & King group. Two years later, following a shareholder dispute, he relinquished control of that particular empire — a difficult moment that he nonetheless describes now as "not such a bad thing." In the four years since, he has opened The Park (an excellent, humming New York brasserie); Arlington (an ingenious re-birth of the beloved old Le Caprice); and now Simpson's in the Strand, a timely resurrection of one of London's most iconic restaurants. This episode is very much a 'chapter two' to our original conversation, then — in which we touch on why restaurants need to 'have a point'; Jeremy's surprising plate-clearing talents; and why you should never get annoyed about something you'll shortly forget.
"Kindness is always the answer," says Cosimo Gheradini, one of the family members behind the beloved restaurant group Sant Ambroeus. Here, in a conversation recorded at the Jumeirah Carlton Tower in Knightsbridge, Cosimo discusses Milanese roots, the ingredients that make a truly great dining room, upcoming plans in Miami — and why the first ten seconds of any restaurant experience are the most important.

Our guest on today's episode of the Gentleman's Journal Podcast is Peter Williams — the founder of both Aubin and Jack Wills, two of the most defining English style start ups of the 21st century. Here, Peter discusses his highly unlikely path into fashion; his 23-year-old midlife crisis; the early viral success of Jack Wills; the changing nature of the British high street; and why youth and naivety could be the most powerful tools for any entrepreneur.
It takes ten years to become an overnight success, they say. At the eight year mark, Topjaw’s Jesse Burgess and Will Warr very nearly tapped out. The pair had been making longish-form food-adjacent YouTube videos since 2015 — things like a 21-minute, three part series on the best burger in London. (“We haven’t exactly moved on,” laughs Will now.) It was going okay. It was going fine. It was even going quite well — which is a terrible way for anything to be going whatsoever. “And then there came a moment when it was like, right: this has been a side project for so long,” says Jesse now. “Are we going to pack it in because it takes up a lot of time? Or are we going to carry it on — at which point we have to put our all into it. It was one or the other..." Here, Jesse and Will discuss London's best restaurants, birthday celebrations, the problem with hype, and their admiration for the people behind the industry.
