I am kicking off a brand new series of Party Starters with an absolute icon of the party - it's DJ Jodie Harsh.

We take it back to early party days in village halls, to legendary venues like the Astoria, right through to Jodie's ultimate fantasty party with Frankie Knuckles and Larry Levan on the decks - but who is making the guestlist?! (hint: it might not even be Jodie...!)

And it's not all about parties being unhealthy; we get into non-alcoholic drinks, our favourite workouts and why neither of us will wear heels to DJ!

Jodie's incredible book 'You Had To Be There' which has LOADS of stories of nights out in London in the noughties is out now - you can get it here: https://linktr.ee/yhtbt?utm_source=linktree_profile_share<sid=39398d58-b478-4319-8bf9-1c676e8c1779
