In February 2024, Sara and Erin Foster packed the Nordstrom on 57th Street for a live taping of their audio show, The World’s First Podcast, with the influencer Tinx. More than 2,000 people showed up—and this was months before Nobody Wants This, the hit show based on their lives, aired on Netflix. By then, the Fosters had already written and produced their own “mockumentary,” Barely Famous; a popular podcast; and a successful clothing line, Favorite Daughter, which they founded in 2020. When brands have to turn people away from a live podcast taping at a department store, you know they’ve solved a marketing puzzle. That kind of magnetism is rare, especially in fashion.
