Pete Wicks' Man Made

7. Olly Alexander: Pride, Self-Destructive Behaviours & Disney Crushes


Listen Later

This week’s guest on the pod is Olly Alexander. You may know him from playing Ritchie Tozer in the Channel 4 series It’s A Sin, or maybe as the lead singer in the band Years & Years, or when he represented the UK in the 2024 Eurovision Song Contest.  

Olly has achieved so much in such a short space of time, but as this conversation shows, it wasn’t always that easy. He and Pete tackle the issue of identity, self-loathing and learning to accept and be proud of who you are – and the difficulties of the concept of pride in general.  

If you want to find mental health support where you live, or talk about your feelings, visit the Hub of Hope (www.hubofhope.co.uk) where you can find links to services across the UK. 

We’d love you to join in the conversation, to do so follow @manmadepod on Instagram & TikTok
