    S2 Ep 7 : Self Esteem

    Rebecca Lucy Taylor is recognisable by her stage name Self Esteem, the inspiration of which comes from the evolution of her confidence. She has spoken about being a woman in music in her 30s, stating she used to lie and say she was 25 and said it took her a "while to be proud" of breaking into the industry later in life. Her lyrics talk about toxic relationships, the patriarchy, and all sorts of other serious things, but with a sharp pop bite. I can’t wait to talk to her about her life via the dance floor.

    S2 Ep 6 : Tom Daley

    This week we have a true national treasure who’s grown up in the public eye and dived into our hearts. From Team GB to the dance floor, I go in deep with Olympic champion Tom Daley; we talk about coming out, going out, and making time for socialising as an athlete and as a dad!

    S2 Ep 5 : The Blessed Madonna

    The Blessed Madonna is the moniker of global selector Marea Stamper. She’s been hot on the scene for a long while now, but it’s the lockdown era that really pushed her into the wider public sphere as she exec-produced Dua Lipa’s Club Future Nostalgia project, and narrated the anthem ‘We’ve Lost Dancing’ with Fred Again… We sat down to chat Chicago club culture, touring life, and what’s in a name…

    S2 Ep 4 : Tom Grennan

    This week’s guest is as comfortable on a Calvin Harris banger as he is sharing his heart on one of his own indie pop ballads. He’s had a number one album, and he loves a night out. This episode is so fun and it’s a proper deep dive into parties, festivals and clubs, so buckle up!

    S2 Ep 3 : DJ Fat Tony

    As one of clubland’s most notorious - and best loved - figures, Tony is a complete force of nature. His book I Dont’t Take Requests shot to the top of the Sunday Times bestseller list, and he’s also been one of my best friends for as long as I can remember. There’s just no way I could have done this podcast without having him on. Here he tells us about nights out across so many different scenes over the decades, of week-long benders and extreme self-destruction - and of recovery, redemption, and the joy of a good tune.

    S2 Ep 2 : Jessie Ware

    Jessie Ware is, quite frankly, a national treasure. She straddles a music career (What’s Your Pleasure was everyone’s lockdown disco album) and a podcast career - Table Manners with her Mum Lennie is delicious and stratospheric. She’s a gay icon, a foodie and one of the coolest women in music - and I wanted to know everything about her raving days, festival experiences and why she has - shock horror - so far not performed at a Pride!

    S2 Ep1 : Joel Corry

    You can’t deny Joel Corry is killing it. With a bunch of top 10 singles under his belt - including a number 1 - and a DJ career that’s taken him all over the world, Corry has become a household name. Even your mum’s heard of him! As he triumphs across America with a huge tour, and Ibiza and Vegas residencies this summer, I sat down with him to talk about his nights out both as a punter and as a headline DJ.

    S1 Ep 8 : Nile Rodgers
    This week's guest is epic - If you’ve ever been on a dance floor, you’ve definitely enjoyed his records. It's the legend himself, Nile Rodgers. His music has defined so many eras and it’s soundtracked so many people’s lives. He’s helped shaped the careers of superstars and gave them the songs we love. From Madonna to Bowie, Diana Ross to Daft Punk, and of course his own band, Chic. His body of work has shaken dance floors for decades. He’s survived cancer, drug and alcohol addiction, and a violent backlash against the musical genre he was the star of. He is to this day, the king of the dance floor.

    S1 Ep 7 : Annie Mac
    You'll know this episode’s guest from the airwaves and her beats from the DJ booth. She’s a dance music authority - She started as a punter and has become a rave thrower, a festival owner, a podcaster, an equality campaigner and now an author - not to mention a mum....A very cool mum! She’s a pied piper of fun - and she’s something of a cultural barometer. She asks the nation if we’re Raving or Behaving, and I couldn’t do this podcast without having her on as a guest. Very excited to have Annie Mac on this episode, and explore her Life Of The Party!

    S1 Ep 6 : Paul O'Grady
    This episode’s guest is an absolute icon. From the country-wide club circuit to TV stardom both in and out of drag, he has an unparalleled career in popular culture. We knew HER as Lily Savage, the rough broad you wouldn’t wanna mess with, and we know HIM as lovely Paul O’Grady, a British entertainment institution. He is the the OG, and boy oh boy does he have some mad nocturnal stories to share!

    S1 Ep 5 : Erol Alkan
    Erol Alkan is an important part of the tapestry in nightlife - it’s difficult to imagine our clubbing landscape without him. He’s a DJ, producer, remixer, club promoter, and founder of Phantasy Sound - the record label. He’s rubbed shoulders with the Armands and the Armins on the top of the DJ of the Year lists, but always stayed true to his core beliefs and tastes. His club Trash, became one of the most influential clubs of its time. This is his Life of The Party...
