16 to 25 million people tuned in on Christmas Day to watch his final scene.

Jamie Mitchell's exit from EastEnders remains one of the most watched moments in British soap history. But behind one of Britain's most recognisable faces was a story that went far deeper than the role that defined a generation. Inside the studio it was everything. Barbara Windsor. Steve McFadden. The most iconic cast in British television. Jack Ryder loved every second of it. Outside those doors was a completely different world. The frenzy. The fame. A level of recognition that had no off switch.

In this conversation Jack opens up about identity beyond the role, what the acting craft really demands, fatherhood, the little things in life we overlook and what it truly takes to keep moving forward with purpose when the industry moves fast and forgets faster.

In this conversation:

— Life inside Britain's biggest soap

— The reality of fame and what nobody prepares you for

— Identity beyond the role that made him famous

— What being an actor actually demands beyond the screen

— Fatherhood and what truly matters

— Strength from within and moving forward with purpose

— Longevity in an industry that moves fast

She’s helped move over $2.5 billion in product sales, hosted nearly 200 national shows, coached over 42,000 students in the art of communication, and stood centre stage as a two-time TEDx speaker and Hall of Fame fitness icon. But behind the powerhouse brand of Dr. Forbes Riley is a woman whose journey began in the shadows.

In this intimate and unfiltered conversation, Forbes Riley opens up about her evolution, from a quiet, self-doubting girl facing deep personal loss, bullying, and emotional trauma, to becoming one of the most influential voices in media, sales, and transformation.

With raw truth and magnetic energy, she shares how her early adversity became the very foundation for her purpose: helping others discover their voice, own their worth, and shatter the limits they didn’t even realise were holding them back.

This isn’t just a story of success, it’s a blueprint for rising, rebuilding, and reclaiming your power.

He won hearts as Beppe di Marco on EastEnders, commanded the West End stage in Chicago, and is now making moves on the big screen with a project backed by 50 Cent. But Michael Greco's story is about far more than the roles that made him famous.

In this raw and honest conversation, Michael sits down with Glenn Marsden to pull back the curtain on the journey behind the success — the early struggles, the defining moments, the highs and lows of life in the spotlight, and the resilience it takes to keep going when the cameras aren't rolling.

This is the side of fame you don't usually get to see. The grit. The growth. The truth.

Don't miss it.

He was one of the Top Five Male Porn Stars in the World. Now he's a Pastor.

Joshua Broome has a story that'll move you to tears with his painful experiences, but then inspire you to grow in God because of what he's done in his life.

During his five years in the porn industry, Joshua Broome made over 1,000 adult films, was named Top Adult Male Performer of the Year, and earned over one million dollars.

This episode we hear how Joshua first got involved in the porn industry, the damage it wreaked on him, and where it got to the point of him wanting to take his own life.

He shares while working at a restaurant in L.A., how he met a group of girls who worked in porn who suggested that he consider doing so as well. He agreed to meet with an agent, who told him that because of his good looks and because there was a need for acting experience, he could likely have a successful career as a porn star.

The guilt and nerves gradually diminished throughout his first year working as a porn star. “The more numb I became to what it was, the less I felt conflicted about it,” he said. “It was just a transaction to me. A handshake was sometimes more personal than having sex.”

Joshua them delves in to the decision to leave the porn industry being the result of something one could describe as a modern-day miracle.

This is such an inspirational story and we cannot wait for you to listen.
