  • Asking the questions we all want to know!

    Thanks for starting the pod, Nicky! I loved the episode with Jo and appreciated that you’re asking and have permission to ask the deeper questions and going beyond the surface level stuff.

    I’m waiting for a Kavana episode now that he’s released his book which is taking off, or an episode with Jon from SClub since Celebs Go Dating.

That combined with thinking everyone was a Westlife fan (yeah of course 5ive & E17 loved you!)& crowbarring your name into everyone’s ult... more
