On the podcast this week, I’m joined by Scottish presenter Kirsty Gallacher and Dr Luke Powles for a really honest conversation about health, awareness and getting older.

Kirsty talks about turning 50 and why she’s enjoying it far more than turning 40, how priorities change with age, and why regular health check-ups matter more than we often realise.

Plus, she opens up about something she didn’t expect… falling in love with radio presenting.

A reassuring, thoughtful chat about looking after yourself and enjoying the stage of life you’re in.

Have you noticed how some films don’t just scare you… they stay with you?

Today, I’m joined by director Zak Hilditch, to talk about his new film We Bury The Dead, starring Daisy Ridley.

It’s a zombie film with a twist, one that actually began before Covid, but took on a very different meaning once the world shut down.

We talk about how early Daisy became involved, why certain sounds and moments can be more unsettling than gore, and what he really hopes audiences take away from the film.

This is a fascinating conversation about horror, humanity, and the stories that linger long after the credits roll.

 Binky Felstead on holidays, relationships and who really makes the decisions 

On the latest episode of The MarshyCast, Paul Marsh and co-host Casey Major Bunce (Major Mum Hacks) are joined by TV personality and former Made in Chelsea star Binky Felstead for a refreshingly honest conversation about relationships, decision-making and holidays. 

Binky reveals that she’s never actually booked a holiday abroad herself, always leaving it to her husband. But that’s about to change, as she prepares to book something exotic without the kids for the very first time. 

The chat explores who tends to lead and who follows in relationships, how decisions really get made, and whether too many opinions can sometimes make planning more stressful than it needs to be. 

A light, relatable and genuinely funny episode that will strike a chord with couples everywhere.

 Kezia Gill: All On Red, 20 Years In the Making 

Releasing an album is always a moment — but releasing one after two decades of hard work hits differently. 

In this episode of The MarshyCast, Kezia Gill joins me on the day her new album All On Red lands. We talk about the inspiration behind the record, taking it on the road for her UK tour next month, and what it really takes to keep going when success doesn’t arrive quickly. 

Kezia also reflects on a novelty track that became far bigger than she ever imagined, and why she’s now embracing opportunities beyond music, including presenting. 

It’s a conversation about patience, persistence, and backing yourself when the odds aren’t obvious.

 This week on The MarshyCast, I’m joined by actress Simone Lahbib and Ailsa Herd from Strathcarron Hospice for a powerful and deeply human conversation. 

Simone speaks openly about the loss of her brother Stephen, who died of cancer at a young age while being cared for at Strathcarron Hospice. Alongside Ailsa, we explore what hospices really offer — not just medical care, but dignity, compassion, and space for families during the hardest moments of their lives. 

This episode isn’t about celebrity, headlines, or promotion. It’s about perspective. About love. And about how, in life’s most difficult moments, everything suddenly becomes clear. 

A gentle but important listen.

Travel expert Chelsea Dickinson joins The MarshyCast to explain why January is the perfect time to book your next holiday. 

With travel searches peaking at the start of the year, Chelsea breaks down where the real value is right now – from some of the cheapest (but best) European getaways, to destinations off the beaten path that are quietly becoming the next big thing. 

We also talk about one of the biggest booking mistakes people make: focusing on the headline one-way price, rather than checking the real cost of the return flight. 

If you’re planning a break in 2025 and want to book smarter, this episode is a must-listen.

With Giant released in cinemas today, I sat down with director Rowan Athale to talk about bringing the story of boxing icon Prince Naseem Hamed to the big screen.

Rowan explains how the project first came his way, why the casting was so crucial to getting the story right, and why he felt it was important not to gloss over tougher themes, including racism and identity.

We also discuss Prince Naseem Hamed’s involvement with the film, how he reacted to seeing his story told on screen, and the responsibility that comes with portraying such a larger-than-life figure.

A thoughtful, honest conversation about filmmaking, sport, and telling stories the right way.
