I am so lucky to have the wonderfully talented Rick Page on the show with me today!

Recorded in Dublin, we talked about working behind the camera, how working on Brooklyn 99 changed his life, and how his time on High School Musical 3 lives on!

We talked about the loss of Andre Braugher, and how his kindness on set was seen throughout all nine years of the show.

We also discussed how Rick plans to spend time living in Dublin, after falling in love with the country, and so much more!

And next week, part 2 will be out, so make sure you are subscribed so you don't miss it!

2010 was a huge year for music, and a lot of it came from the X Factor. Matt Cardle, Mary Byrne, One Direction of course..

and today's guest, Aiden Grimshaw.

A fan favourite, his versions of Gold Digger, Mad World and more made him a household name.

He released an album after leaving the show and then tells me why he slipped into the background, happier to be away from the scene.

But now he is back, reclaiming his name, releasing his new single Talk (click HERE to hear it)

We talk about why the show was like uni to him, why he has blocked a lot of it out, and what it is like to disappear when everyone knows your name.

Loved having Aiden on. Hope you enjoy! If you are listening on Spotify, leave us a comment below!

Dia dhuit a chairde!

This week, I sat down with TikTok Gaeilgeoir Josy to talk about the grá for the Irish language, leaving steady work for content creation and the big question on everyone's lips- would Lady Di be proud of Josy?!

In a craic-filled chat, we discuss how Irish became cool thanks to Kneecap, why more and more people are turning to it, and how it is now a career option.

We shout out Fitzy for bringing it to Love Island and me for trying! There's banshees, morning screams and more in here.

We also talk how Josy is raising money for Uisce for Gaza with her Irish language hats, and we discuss what Princess Diana would think of it all!

To buy Josy's hat, head to https://shorturl.at/LMqjN where you can pick one up now!

Time to meet the Chaser!!

I am so honoured to have Darragh Ennis here from the Chase, also known as the Irish one, the Menace, or in the words of Tommy Tiernan, the one with the hair and teeth!

We talk about the Leaving Cert, science, job searching, GoFundMes and of course, Bradley Walsh and the squad.

We also hear how a door led to his TV career and why you SHOULD take the lower offer (I'm still not convinced!)

In this week's episode, we are off to the cobbles and the Rovers to chat to now former Corrie star Channique.

She left the UK soap after playing Dee Dee for three years and is now threading the boards in a new play across the UK.

I speak to her about unconventional path to success, working in the worst job during the pandemic, and why her mum thinks her career has peaked!

We also discuss carving your own path, why your kind words can be the ones to change someone's life and why her faith hasn't led her astray yet.

Strap in for this one! My gorgeous guest today is the lovely James Sutton, known by many as John Paul McQueen from Hollyoaks, or Ryan Lamb in Emmerdale.

But now he steps into a new role, away from acting and more into delving deep rather than playing other people. He wants to help men become happy and look inside and out. And at 43, and having done the work, James is feeling better than ever.

We also discuss his role in Hollyoaks, the storyline that was the hardest but he is most proud of, changing UK law and why he's closed the door on John Paul and acting now- unless Peaky Blinders comes calling!!

Such a wide ranging and thought-provoking chat, I hope you enjoy!

If you do, please leave us a comment or review- it means so much! Thank you!

Oh boy do I have a show for you!

What really happened behind the scenes of America's Next Top Model?

In this explosive episode, I meet Cycle 8 breakout star Corinne (formerly Britney Hatch) to pull back the curtain on the modeling industry's most controversial show.

From predatory contracts to psychological warfare, Corinne shares her raw, unfiltered experience of what went down when the cameras stopped rolling.

You'll hear all about:

• How ANTM casting producers weaponized intense mental health evaluations to deliberately manipulate vulnerable girls into toxic reality TV tropes.
• The shocking financial reality of surviving on a tiny amount of money that contestants had to hand right back to production just to buy groceries.
• How editors spliced together mismatched audio, old clips, and fake room tones to manufacture drama and script total lies.
• The strict non-disclosure rules legally forbidding contestants from ever speaking to models from other cycles to keep systemic abuse hidden.
