The painful truth of loving a pet gets explored as Miquita Oliver returns from holiday to join Jordan Stephens for their weekly catch-up. Alongside the pain is the utter soul-soothing balm of having a pet as part of the family. Plus is carnival actually Black Christmas? Jordan and Miquita had parallel Notting Hill carnival experiences this year, as Keets met up with Lily Allen to get immersed in all the joy and release that Bank Holiday vibe can bring (which partly explains the later than usual drop of this ep too!).

Jordan Stephens and Sabrina Elba are back to dissect what society deems to be beauty. Is it subjective? Do we just mean healthy? How much have social media filters skewed what we think of how we look? As always, there’s a lot to unpack.

Next week Miquita is back with Jordan and after your voice note questions on the topic of RITES OF PASSAGE. WhatsApp them to us on https://wa.me/447849030711

Jordan Stephens calls up his friend Sabrina Dhowre Elba to swap tales about people who just don’t shut up in the cinema, and if there can be anything more effective than shhh. They also share their experience of watching The Odyssey (not in IMAX), and go into what led Sabrina to swap a potential law career to start her own skincare brand, and how ethics come into play there too.

Jordan Stephens and Zawe Ashton get into your questions about being on time. Is it something you stress about if you’re always running late, or does it bug you if people don’t show up on time? Jordan talks about how time blindness is an aspect of his ADHD that has impacted his life, while Zawe considers how an obsession with time can sometimes miss the point of living.

Jordan Stephens and Zawe Ashton share everything they know about how they came into the world, the silence and the screams, and the surprising similarities between their birth stories. They talk about how their birth impacted them in adulthood, and whether certain traits can be linked back to those first moments of breathing life. And Zawe shares her two most embarrassingly awful auditions, so if you’ve ever wondered if some stories about acting really are that extreme and awkward then, yep, they are.

Miquita Oliver and Jordan Stephens answer your questions on RESTAURANTS. From when it’s OK to complain or not, and what they’d change about the dining out experience. And is it about time we normalised that table for one?

Next week the theme is BEING ON TIME with Zawe Ashton guesting with Jordan. This episode has already been recorded though - so please don’t send in additional questions on this occasion! 

Normal voice-noting will resume the week after - and for anything else, the WhatsApp is https://wa.me/447849030711

Have you ever been visited by an incubus? The sleep sirens come out to play as Miquita Oliver and Jordan Stephens discuss the effects of insomnia, and how sleep paralysis has haunted them both. And as we slide into another heatwave, they take in the changing dusty landscapes of some festivals, while also celebrating the best vibes of partying in queer spaces.

Miquita Oliver and Jordan Stephens get into why culture glamorises some bad habits, and not others, and when things get embarrassing should you stay home? Oh, and then there was that time Jordan threw a fish at Jason Derulo and still asked to be one of his back-up dancers.

Miquita Oliver and Jordan Stephens talk about celebrity fandoms, and whether it’s normal to idolise certain people. Miquita discusses her night out with Lily Allen seeing The Oresteia, while Jordan talks about Christoper Nolan’s The Odyssey. They also go into which singers and bands they obsessed over as teenagers, and whether there’s anyone they’d wait outside in the cold for hours to see.

Miquita Oliver and Jordan Stephens debate your questions around the substances people take to escape from the world at times, and Miquita reveals she only recently dated soberly for the first time. They get into why alcohol is legal while other mind-altering things are not, and why many of us can be afraid to sit with our feelings. Is it about time we got comfortable with being uncomfortable?
