12 Questions

The 12th and final episode and what a finale this is. I am joined by the global ambassador for dance music; Pete Tong MBE, and the nicest man in show business; Dan Smith, lead singer of Bastille. Dan had already answered the question “What’s In A Name” on the 12 Questions album but in this episode he answers ‘Do We Really Care?’ by discussing public opinion, songwriting over zoom and whether the power of positivity can help save the planet. Pete offers insight into what it's like to have your name turned into cockney rhyming slang and he also reveals his record for how many shows he has performed in one night. I have absolutely loved having these conversations with so many household names and I really hope you've enjoyed listening to the answers that have been given by my incredible guests. Huge thanks to everyone that has taken part in the series and to you also for listening. Stay tuned! Listen to the 12 Questions album here: https://platoon.lnk.to/12-questions

This week I speak to two artists who are set to become the future of modern music; Griff and Maisie Peters.

Two multi-hyphenates Doc Brown and Jelani Blackman join me this week to answer the 12 Questions.

Kojey Radical and Dermot Kennedy; I’ve had the pleasure of working with both artists separately in the studio and instantly saw similarities in the way they both work. We speak about legacy as an artist, Boris Johnsons hair, fear trumping faith, why Kojey doesn’t give a fuck, and somehow I think I’ve agreed to let them give me my first tattoo…

Joy Crookes and Avelino; two artists on the very cusp of superstardom who are soon to release their debut albums. This episode proves that these questions really are the gifts that keep on giving and can be interpreted and answered in so many different ways.

Jamie Oliver and Fatboy Slim join Fraser T Smith to answer the 12 Questions

Two lyrical titans, and collaborators on my record battle it out this week with Poet Laureate Simon Armitage making a compelling argument as to why the answer to every question should be 'one thousand pounds’. He also shares how poetry has afforded him freedom and just why Repair Shop is the new Top Boy. Kano talks about his career shift from music to acting and how he brought his life experience to the role of Sully. He explores the reasons behind his name change last year, whether aki and saltfish is in his blood and why love is a never ending pursuit.

Ricky Wilson and Mysie… well you didn’t think I would let the series get too deep did you?! This episode is 90% dad jokes and the other 10% biscuit recommendations. I would apologise, but really it's great.
