| 23 Emmy Nominations for “The White Lotus” Is Too Many On Tuesday morning, this year's Emmy nominations were announced, and unsurprisingly, The White Lotus once again earned a ton of nods — 23, to be exact. But this year those accolades feel a little undeserved. Season 3 paled in comparison to the previous two efforts; the writing was lazy, the plot was all over the place, and despite some strong performances, there wasn’t enough character development for its dramatic ending to feel earned. —Bonnie Stiernberg, Managing Editor | |

| JFK Is Getting a Pop-Up Lounge for People Who Miss Flights Even though we’re finally free from the TSA shoe shuffle, flight delays and cancellations are still derailing plenty of travel plans. If you do find yourself grounded, you’ve got options: melt down on the floor, yell at the gate agent (not recommended) or turn your misery into margaritas at Cayman Jack’s new Missed Flight Lounge at JFK’s TWA Hotel. Running July 17–18, the pop-up turns travel hiccups into a chance to unwind with cocktails, bites and spa perks — plus there’s an online version for everyone else through September 1. Considering summer is peak season for delays, we’ll happily raise a glass to that! —Lindsay Rogers, Travel Editor | |

| A History of the Omega Chronostop Without question, the Speedmaster is one of the most important watch releases ever. For many, that’s where Omega’s horological relevance begins and ends, but, as contributor Oren Hartov points out, that’s really only scratching the surface of what the watchmakers have to offer. While they mostly fly under the radar on the vintage market, the “hardy construction, cool looks and first-rate movements” make 20th-century Omegas excellent buys. One model in particular, the Chronostop — a pared-down chronograph geared toward a younger buyer — has a particularly unique history. Read more about it below. — Paolo Sandoval, Style Editor | |

| Your Next Cocktail Needs This Under-the-Radar Colombian Spirit A drink known as “fire water” isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when talking about sophisticated drinking. But in the case of Colombian aguardiente, it’s time to change that perception. “Aguardiente” is a generic term for any number of spirits made in Latin America, but in Colombia, it specifically refers to one made from sugarcane and flavored with anise. And a new wave of aguardente producers are poised to usher in a more elevated drinking culture, feeding the blossoming category even more. —Kirk Miller, Senior Editor | |
