Queer Longing

Hello beauties, it's another flipping week isn't it?!

This week, we discuss our favourite spices (I know, you've been dying for such hot goss), our ranking of the best ever slogan t-shirts and bumper stickers we've ever seen and the latest news from our Wakefield belle, Jane McDonald

Plus, all the latest music bits from our OBSESSION with Lady Gaga's latest single 'Stupid Love', the UK'S Eurovision music entry, Stormzy's Gregg's Black Card and Christine and the Queens brand new EP.

Plus we go IN on the Netflix phenomenon 'Love is Blind' and review 'Next in Fashion.

LOVE YOU, MISS YOU, JUST WANNA KISS YOU.

Another week, another stunning pod. Join us as Lucy gets over excited by the biggest boyband news this side of 2016 and we introduce you to the concept of ‘fifth member’. 

We’ve been cultured huns at the cinema this week so we happily bring you our glowing reviews of ‘Parasite’ and ‘Queen and Slim’- two films you MUST see.

We give you our rundown of the Brits in a quick ‘Britique’, before we lend our thoughts to the tragic news of Caroline Flack’s death and what it says about our relationships with people in the public eye.

She's here, she's queer, she's a brand new ep. 

Join us this week for our lowdown on the Grammys (mainly obsessing over anyone who is a queer cowboy), our reviews of films 'Rafiki' and 'Bombshell' and a little dive into the world of Nigella and Nigel- I'm sure you know who we're talking about. 

We also chat the coming out of NikkieTutorials, the rise of the Tradwife and give you a good bumper haul of queer book news. 

There's a big old deep dive into season two of 'Sex Education' and we also cover 'AJ & The Queen' and the new Trixie Mattel documentary, 'Moving Parts'.

Hunnies we're home! It's 2020 and the year of our reckoning! It's so fab to be back after a short bbi podcast hiatus and OH how we've missed you! Some might even say that we've lived and longed for this moment?! 

This week we take a look back at the decade that was, the decade that is, re-capped Olivia's 30th birthday bonanza (it finally happened everyone) and marvelled at the advent of Lucy's signature lip. 2020 is shaping up to be a big'un already and we love to see it!

Join us this week for a stunning holiday feast of an ep as we make the yuletide gay!

Starting off we take you through a very festive round up of feel good news bits including dogs in Christmas jumpers- obv! 

Then we move on to give our rave reviews of Netflix's new Christmas films from cute, high-school romance 'Let It Snow' to wonderfully twee and questionable 'The Knight Before Christmas'.

We also talk our favourite Christmas songs, what we don't agree with during the festive period and our fave hun, Celine, has a very special festive message for us all. 

Also, stay tuned to the end of the ep for a lil pop punk festive treat!

Hello you lil’ bbi angels on top of the Christmas tree!

We’re here, refreshed and revived off the back of a YouTube guided meditation video, ready to bring you all your favourite Queer Longing BITS!

And much like Xena and Gabrielle in that bath scene, we too are cleansing you of your worries and taking you on a journey of rejuvenation and discovery through Dolly Parton’s America, Pose Season 2, the latest in Christmas movie offerings and how it all, inevitably, ends in Fleetwood Mac.

All Best,

 

Us.

We are joined this week by gorgeous guest and lovely, great human Sophie Galpin! Sophie is a super talented multi-instrumentalist who currently performs with two of our favourite acts SOAK and Self Esteem all over the world! Aside from that she is also involved in all manner of exciting projects from theatre productions to creating solo tracks.

Sophie joined us for a great chat about all the bits she's been up to and gave us some insights into the life of a touring musician. We talked balancing your mental health and fun party times, the transition from being in a band to becoming a session musician and we looked back at Sophie's highlights from 2019 and her hopes for 2020. 

We also talked about the gateway wine, pinot grigio aka marijuwine-a, the weirdest fry up anyone has ever encountered and the patriarchy, duh. 

Sink your teeth into this one huns, it's a golden delicious.
