Hi, I'm Bella Soames, producer at Intelligent Squared.

Here at Intelligent Squared, we know that when great minds meet, magic happens.

The right conversation can inspire, enlighten, and change the way we think.

We've been creating some of that magic with our friends at Chanel.

Chanel connects, the Arts and Culture podcast is back for its third season.

Each episode brings together global thought leaders, artists, and creators.

And in each episode they explore a different and fascinating theme,

like the intersection of technology and imagination,

fact and fiction in autobiography, the power of collectives,

cinematic inspiration, and more.

Chanel connects pairs two visionaries working at the top of their fields

and gives listeners a backstage pass to the intimate conversations that unfold.

Some guests are old friends and collaborators,

others are meeting for the first time.

All are focused on the profound questions and topics that shape culture today

and define its tomorrow.

Guests include actor and producer, Penelope Cruz, designer,

Inca Illori, writer, Sheila Hetty,

entrepreneur, John Gray, chef, Ruthie Rogers,

and musician, Kelsey Liu.

Listen now on your preferred streaming platform, or on Chanel.com.

Sometimes in life, you gotta go big.
