Tom and Warren

Tom and Warren had a blast when Kate Ceberano and Zan Abeyratne, vocalists from the iconic 80s dance band I’m Talking, joined them at JOY to talk about the good old days of Aussie pop, re-releasing their remastered album full of bonus tracks, and getting the band back together for next year’s A Day on the Green concert series.

There was so much to talk about, we couldn’t put it all to air during breakfast, but it’s here in its entirety exclusive to JOY Podcasts. After the interview, Tom had a special story to share with Kate about her solo song Brave, and that’s all here too!

The remastered edition of Bear Witness is available now wherever you listen to music, and tickets to A Day on the Green with I’m Talking supporting Bryan Ferry are available here.

Australian drag superstar and reality TV professional, Courtney Act joins us to discuss her groundbreaking new show, The Bi Life, which removes gender and sexuality stereotypes from the classic dating show format. We ask Courtney why the timing is right for a show like this, and what kinds of common stereotypes the show attempts to dispel.

Of course we also have to discuss Courtney’s close second place to Bianca Del Rio in RuPaul’s Drag Race season 6, as well as coming away victorious from Celebrity Big Brother UK, and her rather stiff competition.

The Bi Life airs Tuesdays at 7pm on E!, available on Foxtel and Fetch.
