The boys are joined by KISSTORY ICON and broadcaster Neev Spencer! If you grew up listening to KISS, chances are just hearing Neev say hello will bring back them memories (as they did with James, just a lil fanboy moment...) An array of topics are touched upon in this episode, from Neev's pioneering career as Britain's first female Asian DJ on a mainstream station, to Neev's work in mental health. Mental health has always been a close topic for James and Rob on the podcast, and this episode goes deeper into this topic than ever before - from everyone's individual mental health challenges, to Neev's passion of raising awareness for and supporting mothers' mental health during pregnancy and early years.

James and Rob chat to THE Cockney Princess and star of RuPaul's Drag Race Series 3 Scarlett Harlett. The boys chat Scarlett's rise to fame as part of the iconic franchise, her difficult time on the show and the impacts all of that had on Scarlett's mental health and her associated journey through depression. There's also chat on Scarlett's drag inspirations, looks for the Season 3 tour, and even a bit or two on the House of Dragon. What do we call that? Variety (or chaos - you decide).

OH LISTENERS, getting the super babe that is Karen Harding on the show has been a long time coming! As huge fans of dance music, Karen's music has been in James' and Rob's ears for years, and well, the episode is pure chaos! Whatever was in the water that evening... We talk 'Say Something' (of course) and Karen's recording career up to now, the focus on London as a creative hub in the UK, and a chap called Michael Mather who Karen did NOT know, but James thought might cause he was a fellow Geordie... As we said, chaos.

Those ears best be ready for some French gorgeousness and possibly the sexiest voice on the podcast yet, as Glitterbox Creative Director, non-binary babes and fashion stylist Ru Jean joins James and Rob on the podcast. Ru and the boys talk diversifying of the world's biggest dance labels and brands, Glitterbox, as their creative lead - and honouring Ru's culture in her work in that Honey Dijon video. Ru and James also talk sobriety and some of the hardships - and opportunities - of taking that journey in the LGBTQ+ community.

You best believe series 3 is here with a bang! James and Rob are back back back again, joined by the dangerously talented Ryan Lanji. It's hard to really put a label to Ryan's talents - the man won a flower show on Netflix without having ever touched floristry... - but chances are you'll best know Ryan from pioneering his Bollywood LGBTQ+ club night 'Hungama', or very soon as one of the hosts on BBC3's 'The Big Proud Party Agency'. The boys talk everything from musical and cultural influencers growing up in a South Asian household in Canada, his experience on that Netflix lockdown gem, to creating safe, proud queer spaces for minority LGBTQ+ groups.

We're used to hearing about LGBTQ+ nightclubs shutting in London, so when a new one is due to open - slap bang in Camden of all places - it's something to celebrate. And Zodiac Bar promises to be a more inclusive and friendly LGBTQ+ in London. 'Mother Jade' is the reason why. James and Rob sit down with Jade, and business (and real!) partner David to hear about what makes Zodaic so different, Jade's journey as a Philipino-Chinese trans-woman, and a potential series highlight in Dave's nickname...

If you were to list a number of crazy things to do during the pandemic, opening a bar would probably have been one of them. But for Nieko - owner of the super-successful and impossible-to-get-a-booking at 'Arch Clapham - that's exactly what he did. Opening for a mere 4 weeks before a 5-month lockdown, the writing might've felt on the wall for the LGBT's newest bar, but it's been the opposite - Arch is thriving. We sat down with Nieko to discuss his journey through London's ever-changing scene, the ideas behind Arch Bar, and how hard COVID has hit the hospitality industry.
